  2. quote: 'Nobody profits from war in the long run'. seems a strange quote from the motherland of the chap that invented the machine gun
  3. quote: Apart from anything else its such a special moment it will take your relationship to a new level [[big Grin]] and you will be a united family bonded by the experience [[big Grin]] You will regret it if you are not there,and as sure as night follows day you will pay for it forever [[big Grin]] hmmm do you think i could sue the nhs for "distress" at being denied the chance of "bonding" at the birth ,the nearest i got with the firstborns "bonding" was helping a minute chinese nurse lift my wife back on to the bed after her ceaser the other two just apeared when they decided to operate (must have been a quiet night) usually AFTER i`d been sent home [ 13.

  4. whatever they learn they will forget ,the panting will turn into screams for various painkillers etc ,strange though they make the same noises HAVING a baby as when they consieve it i was lucky all my wifes 3 were by ceaserian ,there was no way that herpelvic floor was going to be ruined by mere kids
  5. AH, that gets round it i wonder how "your" signal is scrambled :confused: so as to stop others in the sat "footprint" getting it,but does it matter the gov is watching anyway :mad: , if it is scrambled at the download (to you) end do you need a "key" to unscramble it ,most interesting
  6. what about "condoleeza" (perhaps an ancestor "bought" a mud hut in the past and added a second floor for rental porposes) :confused: is it a sign of the poorer your ancestory or predicament the more stupid the name, colin (and that is his real name) now pronounced cohlen is the reverse :confused:
  7. so carper types dont have pain then

  12. oh no advert alarm by the way elton what happened to the tackleshop thingy that used to be on the AN front page :confused:
  13. i wouldnt believe anything from the beeb its a government run propaganda machine as is the world radio service etc in the "other" gulf war it showed (and therefore partaked in) the lies and misinformation supplied by so called experts in the war breifings [ 12.

    eeerrr the daddy....etc the female has an ovipositor that she uses to pop the eggs in the inlet valve? of the mussel, the male just errr "finishes" near it, the water and sperm being sucked in do the rest i did buy a pair for the intresting "cycle" but i think the mussel ate them well eventually after they became soup the most interesting coldwater fish we had was some sticklebacks , they are great fun the male even had a name , they go very red in the presense of a female as it shows them its nice house , best to keep the tank in sunlight so the algy grows for nest building [ 11.

  17. they wont be far from where they are in the summer (in a pond)but with the colder temps in the winter wont be feeding much , use a small hook and float set well down and single red maggot and you may get some perch ,forget groundbait just a few freebie maggots now and again ,on a sunny day things will pick up but you will still be freezing between bites , i think the shy bites you may get are a automatic reaction to the bait (first come first served) rather on them being hungry , if your pond has cormarant trouble they may be shoaling up for protection , try all the swims with basic tackle and you may find them

    you may be right i cannot find anything relating to being a prot spec so may be thinking of something else and your right about bitterlings ,its a case of "look at the ovipositor on that )
  19. the magic wand was a pain it get grabbing strange bits :confused: but i found the colour replacer thingy worked if it wasnt to agressive ( you can pick the actual colour on the pic to remove) then pick one to replace it with i then adjusted the contrast etc to get the darkest print and the brightest back ground unfortunatly i will have forgotten by tomorrow how i did it [ 11.

  22. hi steve i leave it up to you i`m in FAS because since moving to aldershot and farnham i`v always fished FAS waters at just over a pound a week (excluding £20 joining fee) you cant grumble on the price (well i might ) cats at 40lb+ carp to 39lb if your after the big ones the only drawback is even the biggest waters are small and are EXTREMLY popular with bivvie space at a premium pop into the creel and get the adverts but in the end its your choice
  23. does any enterprising graphics persons know if there is a way of "grabbing" a colour in an image and either removing it or substituting another? ,i am trying to reproduce a intrepid catalogue thats printed on yellow paper ,ofcourse i could just print it but would waste tons of yellow as the pages have other colours besides yellow i would like them to remain ,if i could "remove" the colour and substitute it with white i could easily print the remainder on yellow paper ( i could do it the hard way removing the graphics ,retyping the text etc ) as there is 20 odd pages it would be a long job doing it by "hand"
