  1. Are they great big dobber ones? Our local does very similar, but infused with chilli oil.
  2. Cheating! Not a patch on real ones, but filled a hole! Casserole didn’t look great but was bloody lovely. Kids cleaned their plates as well.
  3. He repeats it because it is repetitive. It is happening every single day. And it needs to stop.
  4. I think you’re missing the point a bit Steven. No one on here wants any ILLEGAL immigrants here in the first place.
  5. Wordle 1,234 4/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜⬜🟨⬜ ⬜🟩⬜⬜🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  6. Finished stew pics tomorrow!
  7. I’ve got 4 pheasant breasts, a load of bacon, onions and carrots in the slow cooker at the minute. Looking forward to tomorrows tea!

  9. That’s cherry-picking J. Why don’t you mention that there has also been a 15% reduction in import activity?
  10. We’ve just had our village display cancelled due to council intervention. Gutted, I ran the bar. We never had fire though, just a pro 17 minute display that paid for itself every year. My Dad was a Parish Councillor in Northumberland when they tried to close down Elsdon bonfire on the green. He basically said F-off townies, it’s always happened, always will. Huge fire, no guards, great display by my young farmer mates (who have been trained). How it should be.
  11. Our political system must be the laughing stock of the world. Imagine having a Minister for Transport suddenly made Minister for Health? A Minister for Employment being made Minister for Agriculture? They are public school cretins who have sucked the right cocks. Why don’t we put people in charge who know what they are on about in their respective fields?
  12. Link please.
  13. Almost certainly. Or do this one if you fancy being indoors. The duration is the same as chainsaw training.
  14. I could have become a qualified fireman in the afternoon as well.
  15. Just seen this on FB. Can’t believe I’ve wasted days of my life.
  16. Brilliant Dave! I think the problem we had was that the slimy ‘How rich can we make ourselves and our cronies’ Tories had to go, but none of us wanted Labour either.
  17. I wish we’d taken ours a bit more seriously.
  18. Wordle 1,231 4/6 🟩⬜⬜⬜⬜ 🟩🟨🟨⬜⬜ 🟩🟩⬜🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  19. That’s easily done after work on a Friday Peds.
  20. Haven’t they been saying this for about 15 years though?
  21. No. No one uses spikes on them.
  22. I’ve crunched the numbers. Old truck is cheaper than both put together.
  23. Perils of running an older truck. My wife goes nuts when I get a £1k bill, but the alternative is a new one at £1k/month.
  24. I’ve dealt with VFS several times and they’ve been spot on, even when there’s been nothing in it for them. These local lads are great to deal with and all my farming mates use them. I think if a new kit was easier/better/quicker they would have steered me there. As Mick said, I want to get it earning asap. Luckily I have a couple of small jobs where handballing/shovelling will only add a few minutes, and a 3-dayer next week with loader and chipper where everything is staying on site. Hopefully done and dusted by next Friday afternoon (motor should be with me next Monday).
