  1. 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:
  2. 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
  4. 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
  5. 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
  6. 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
  7. 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
  9. "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
  10. 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
  11. 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
  12. 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.

  13. 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:

    My boats

    are you sure that nurses are underpaid :confused: i couldn`t just GIVE AWAY a quad hydrofoil/table they can also be used as a airaid shelter if you happen to have it on you if you inadvertantly time travel to 1941

    My boats

    stupid american the bottom ones a quad hydrofoil youve got it upside down ,that why your longshaft hits the bottom i see the top one has the external nightcrawler housing fitted to the top cabin [ 12. November 2002, 09:21 PM: Message edited by: chesters1 ]
  16. my old boss ,was a bit of a softy ,he had a rabbit proof fence round his garden (as much as they can be rabbit proof) and we bought some fen traps for the bunnies that were left inside,if you lay them alonside the fence and bait them with sliced carrots ( yes honestly) they do work ,unfortunatly they also catch magpies and squirrels as well the magpies are easy to release but squirrels "freeze" and no amount of gentle shaking will move them , the best result was to tie the trap open and blast the pesky beast with a jet of water from a hose ,all the caught rabbits were released in my garden a mile away probably becoming food for the local fox [ 12.

  17. why spend money on concrete, the old favourite car engine works ok ,and people will give you one (getting rid of the rest of the car is the problem)
  18. look at mine ,the usefull ones can be counted on one hand
  19. it is probably because they practice on the venue ,not just 1 swim but most , they are all different maybe a slight depression or a rock or ridge ,learn the swim catch the fish plumbing is the key [ 11. November 2002, 07:03 PM: Message edited by: chesters1 ]
  20. damn i was hoping to be rehoused in it
  21. yes :mad: fancy throwing out a rake a cardboard box and a nice sack :mad: the rake could have been left in a dark thoroughfare for someone to stand on ,the carboard could make a fine front door step for a homeless person ,and the sack could be used for disposing body parts from your wifes lover that you have just brutily murdered ,its such a waste :mad:
  22. she was dire ,very little sense of humour , bring back angus or that nice mr b connoly there WOULD be a show
  23. i have always built my own although i did change the frequency xtal on an xt once (genuine ibm) i find that "named" pc`s usually are not the easiest to upgrade some have strange layouts internally to make it more so ,its "home grown " for me the days of real company built and badged pc`s are long gone ,modern firms just rebadge "over the counter" parts that with their buying power they can obtain cheaper than us ,the only difference is a guarantee and backup (for what its worth) for the whole thing rather than individual components [ 10.

  24. my mum bought one years ago as a hobby ,there great, took minutes to reel of jumper panel ,hours to program it to do it hasten to say it lived in the loft for years and was skipped when they moved
