    My boats

    thats nothing newt, us brits go fishing on these i have seen this one on the A3 just north of guildford the rest are here http://www.cummfybanana.com/cars/car_casuallofa.htm
  5. christmas is for kids ,ours were told father christmas didnt exist before they were five we even had a letter from their first school because of parents objections when their little johnie went home and told their parents some rough kids said santa was a lie i cant see the point of having a 60 watt bulb then blotting all the light out with stupid decorations ,at christmas the kids got their presents in the full knowledge that it was their parents that provided them not some chap in a red suite . my mum on the other hand always decorated the house even when it was just her and my old man :confused:
  6. if its like our one its out visiting the fields
  7. i only wish we had some gunboats ,out of our 3 carriers only 1 is fit for duty ,we no longer rule the waves, even little iceland in the cod wars won and their gunboats were converted trawlers
  8. whatever a 100g perch looks like :confused: is it the same as a bushel (whats the metric equiv of a bushel)
  9. i hear in the queens speach today reference to the new euro subdivision of england ,looks like more civil servents needed for the now 3 tier governing ,england will disapear :mad: also in doing a bit of research into silver hallmarks i notice that in 1999 our tradition of hallmarking has also been usurped ,until then only silver with british hallmarks was classed as silver all foreign rubbish was "white metal" this has died now any old rubbish is silver :mad: January 1999 ? European Hallmarking "From 1 January 1999 new legislation has brought the British hallmarking system in line with the rest of Europe. Until now, only wares containing a minimum of 925 part per thousand of pure silver were hallmarked and allowed to be referred to as silver. The new legislation allows a wider range of purity to be hallmarked in the UK as silver. This includes imported silver, such as the 800 standard which is popular in Scandinavia. The Customs Act of 1842 stipulated that all silver imported to the UK was to be assayed and marked in a UK assay office, also backdated 42 years to 1800. From 1904 the imported silver head to be marked with the relevant standard in decimal. There is no longer a requirement for every piece imported into the UK to be stamped with British hallmarks as marks from a recognised European country are acceptable." europe here we come ,referendum no chance were almost there , will we replace foxhunting with euro funded bull fighting :mad:
  10. if broadband is having 2 lines to your property :confused: (yes i live in a small village without it) bt is under no lawfull requirement to give 2 just to you ,the other may be farmed out to another subscriber errr allegedly (i saw a write up somewhere) on the other hand i could be confused about modern technology due to the fact we have 2 busses a day (mind you it was 2 a week 10 years ago) AH technology
  11. its not called community service nowadays its called (by blair) community punishment , its just the same as comunity service ,work hard when your watched ,lark about and cadge cups of tea from old ladies whose garden your cleaning , but now the word punishment is used the general public think that its hard labour in disquise ,its not ,hard labour is building new prisons for future crims or gang work under constant supervision doing usefull work not cleaning gutters so the council can cut back on street cleaners :mad:
  12. you go to "my profile" then "veiw/update profile" the avatar choosing thingy should be there ,if not in a few more posts it will be

    Bait Pumps

    get a solid steel fork you wont break that as for your back just carrying the fork about will toughen that up
  14. the death of the head of the organisation ,that ofcourse is mr blair who`s ultimatly responsible for all bad things either through his activity or non activity in all things ,after all ignorance is not an excuse in law. just because he`s not at every port , aerodrome and train station searching for fish is not an excuse :mad: on the other hand its a criminal offence ,all proceeds ,items bought with proceeds and items used to procure proceeds are forfit ,and ofcourse the family living in houses bought on the proceeds are guilty to for harbouring the perpitrator , send them to devils island ....no wait we probably would have to pay to go there for a holiday ,send them to sheppy
  15. unless of course you combine the two ,just sit round your aquarium with realisticly scaled down fishing tackle and bait ,maybe a matchstick as rod etc whilst a friend sprays water in your face with a plant sprayer ,maybe another could use a hairdryer set on cold to simulate wind ,now and again emptying out half the water could simulate a drought whilst freezer blocks floating on the surface winter ,to spice things up a drop of cooking oil could simulate an oil spill ,looks good to me and clean harmless fun in the privacy of your home
  16. just put a hunk of bread on ,a sure trout attractor ,use the method infront of fluff chuckers on the other bank ,sure starts a conversation
  17. we used to have a budgie ,one year we found it was eating a huge amount of food (it had one of those tube feeders) but it showed no signs of obesity ,one morning i woke up at dawn and noticed a small dark shape scuttle along the window sill to the cage ,it then lifted the unused feeder trough cover and go inside the cage and started feeding out of the tube :mad: it was a mouse the budgie watched its antics from the swing,we caught it the next morning by removing the budgie to a box for the night and placing a mousetrap in the cage

    My boats

    quote: nurses are definatley under paid go on strike , i dont know if you remember the last time the labour party (new or old) were in power but i can see 3 day weeks looming ,stock up on paraffin and candles ,dustbin sacks etc ,still can smell the paraffin lamps in all the shops to this day and winding your way round piles of rubbish ,gosh they were the days you could be burning your boats (literally) just to keep warm
  19. "Very true chesters, the only drawback is where do you get a 1 tone engine block?" ok get the whole car crushed ,over a ton ,lots of nooks and crannies for sealife and its bio degradeable if its crushed properly the tyres on each corner will make a handy fender incase of severe drought . when we had our boat moored (it was a very old fibre glass sailing boat) we had a new "neighbour" a flash cruiser ,after a stormy week we went down the mooring to see if our boat was ok ,it was but the new one next door had a huge hole in it (he had put extra chain on his hitch) it had swung aross to ours and colided ,ours was unmarked ,so in the case of fibre glass new isnt best ,ours was very thick his wasnt
  20. has it got the escape exit in the back must be a problem being a woman ,you have to take everything of just for a pee ,maybe a device similar to the female urinal on the shuttle could be used women could write their names in the snow as well although a high degree of bladder control would be needed from a female to write "nurse judy " instead of a bucket emptying sound effect
  21. itl only freeze if the foam inside is wet ,the frost on the outside will melt when you put your fish laden landing net on it
  22. makes me laugh on some large supermarket products the words to the effect "XXXXXXXX do not test their products on animals" is it because someone else does or is it their products use base ingrediants that were tested on bunnies eyes years ago ,i certainly hope they were tested on something as for fishing stuff we all remember the nasty chemicals used to dye maggots ,is there a get out clause in that if its not for human consumption anything goes as for design ,rods are just light sticks ,little has changed for thousands of years ,reels are just illingsworth design with the cogs enclosed ,all that has changed bar a few additions/improvements are the materials. fishing equiptment is basicly unchanged only improved ,even the hook design is 3,000 years old [ 12.

  23. when my old man died ,we had to go to a government office in walthamstow ( or somewhere in london :confused: )to get the death certificate, we parked in sainsbury`s carpark as it was the nearest to the office ,a spotty schoolage "yoof" was employed to pass the ticket from the machine to the driver bit strange though on waiting i glanced at the notice board with the "banns" for forthcoming marriages ,with only one exception all the "marriages" were males with non anglo saxon surnames marrying girls with the name smith or jones etc most peculier :confused:
