£1.50 round here, rifle shot or shotgun. My game dealer sells them on at £3.50 and cant get enough. All being sold to locals. You can buy domestic rabbits that are bred in France but they dont taste as good as good ol British free range.

The idea is you net off every hole you find put youre ferret down and wait for bunny to bolt. The rabbit hits the net at 50mph and you pull it out of the net and break his neck. These days I dont use nets, I stand over the warren with a 10 shot pump action shotgun on full choke, real exciting stuff.

Just clocked it, I,ll have the fartridge.

Take it or leave it. If you dont want it shut it.

Dont let Morris die in vane, chuck him on the end of a cod hook and cast as far as you can

Jalalabad and Taliban, nine year old litter sisters. Been with me since six weeks old.

I had to retrieve a radio controlled plane a long time ago for £50. Probably £100 in todays money.

I had a husky 254 like that, it just would,nt give up. I,ve just sold it on ebay because I was sick of opening the shed and seeing it.

No it,s a polecat. Youre right about his sweetmeats though. I bet he stinks. I,ll post a pic of my jills when they wake up for a feed.

Even the tree,s round here have to adhere to height restrictions..........If this wins send the little hottie to Peter because it was his joke. And besides he,s further north than me.

More protection in climbing PPE..?

Glad to see youre back JJG and on top form as usual. -
It,s a shame you cant plank it. Traditional boat builders pay alot for Larch.

Sounds like you had a sleepless night maybe, I dont like being soaked either. You wont get a chill if you keep working and change as soon as you can. I only work in the rain if I get caught out and have to finish a job. I cant see a £120 jacket, youre probably looking at my foresters top at £30. Cheer up, dont be so touchy. -

Why bother, youre skin is waterproof. -

I wish I were in youre boots, I,d stay put for another twelve years and get a fat pension. A friend of mine did 22years in 9 para, went through the ranks and got a comission and now he,s loaded.

Make youre own.

Do you have man boobs?:scared1:LOL

Man boobs and climbing just dont go hand in hand.

Braces! Pump up youre chest at the gym and they will sit in the right place. Avoiding nipple rub and giving you some ooomph at the same time.

I fell off some step ladders once while doing some Privet. I landed with a prong up each snout hole, God did it hurt. Even more so when I had to pull away.

No, dont buy any saw off ebay. Go to a dealer so you,ve got some comeback if needed.

Happy New Year everyone, from me. Oh and yet more logs.

As promised some pics.

Let em hire what they want. I took some tree,s down for a tight git who also wanted the stumps out. Rather than pay me to do it he hired a small grinder and put a stone through his patio doors. Having the right tools is one thing but useless if you dont know how to use them.
