  1. the mods are here for my use only ,elton has had to bring in a couple more since i joined to get round the clock coverage :D

    compared to some american sites the language and subject are very laid back (although on a american site suggesting that surcumscission for non medical grounds was child abuse and called a troll and banned :confused: ) a case of its ok if your on their side :D

    foreigners why not ,if they posted in their own language they wouldnt get a reply ,at least english is a international language (and some foreigners fish as well )

    dragonbats ok he gives as good as he gets ,life is made of all types ,this would be a boring place if we were all alike (did i mention chesters1)

    :D

    so long as it doesnt get personal (i am ashamed to say i do retaliate occasionally :D ) and greviencies are taken to e`mail then this is a good place to swap ideas

  2. i think we have used technology to the wrong ends (ok we started it). being secular? has its good points ,i.e if america`s stock market falls ours follows and the companies investing suffer.

    most of our wars concern foreigners ,were either helping them kick an invader of their land or kicking them off ours :mad: rarely do we get help from THEM when were in trouble (ok america does but at a price

    )

    foreign aid ,we send tons of clothing etc to poor countries ,they say "blimey if they can just chuck these clothes away they must be rich ,lets go there" this is how we get the immigration problem.

    polution ,isnt it strange we always work where we dont live

    :confused: all those car journies A to B and people in the towns we`re going to work somewhere else (a lot of people living in B work in A)

    multi nationals exploit people for money (i`n not an anti ,i like cheap goods too) once "made in england " then "made in DDR" then "made in TW" now "made in china" as people standard of living rises (because of the investment) then the companies go elsewhere ,leaving the people surviving in a country where the cost of living is far higher to where it was before they were exploited.at the way its going "made in england" could again be the sign of a third world country :D

    Religeon ,probably the best excuse to commit mass murder there is ,and the strange thing is gods always on their side (whatever their god is)

    yes being secular is good ,i remember as a kid playing in the road on a sunday,for two reasons ,cars were expensive ,and if you owned a car there was nowhere to go ,church was the only 24/7 then :)

    in the old days few people travelled more than ten miles away from their home in their life ,times were hard but 99% of people were honest AND YOU COULD LEAVE YOUR DOOR OPEN (usually because anything of value had already been sold) credit was maybe a provincial cheque and a bloke came round every week to collect the payments (i remember hiding with my parents at a knock at the door :D )

    i am not becoming a sandle wearing leftie (or is it righty) i love cheap stuff ,but exploitation by large companies should stop ,we have plenty of expertise in this country ,but fields lie barren (mostly horses round here) all around ,why because poor countries provide us with cheap veg not for their own people who are starving but to pay of depts to rich ones

    :confused:

    so is a global world good ,maybe when the oil gives out we can all return to a gentler life ,to many countries depend on another ,lets all join the good life not just some :(

    spasor i`m with you :D lets chill (but i do like chips and baccy )

  3. we seem to have now explored all the sidelines in the issue.

    the side from mr bush in his gung ho lets go alone and bu**er the un (and the possibility of us being dragged along)

    my version of saddams reasoning and "monkey see monkey do"

    chesters1 "hang em hi " version :D

    the so called "flawed history" is in fact fact ,nearly all countries have had their own versions of saddams crimes ,all have invaded other countries ,most in some way have tried their best to exterminate a foe using weapons of mass distruction

    ,ethnic cleansing was quite popular in the past in the so called civilised countries ,beside tasmania ,jews were forbidden (under threat of death) to live in england for almost 400 years ,religeous ferver was prevelent ,we tried to cleanse catholics ,catholics waged war on england the only flaw in this it happened over the last thousand years ,not in saddams reign.

    as stated in mr annans ? statement today the answer IS the isreali/palestine problem ,removing saddam will not take the problem away just give isreal a little more room to breath.

    mr bush`s speach was very good ,no mention of the past gung ho stuff ,but instead cleverly manouvered the un into a empass over its own mandates ,mr bush clearly stated the signed agreements and how they were broken and insisted the un take action over them.

    if the un take on iraq for breaking the rules then surely other broken mandates should be enforced in the case of other countries that have also broken them .if this is not the case then the arab world will still see saddam as being picked on.

    i dont think there is much evidence to back up mr bushes facts ,people who have defected will probably not tell the truth i.e

    "hey mr defector ,tell us about that creep saddam"

    i would hardly think he would respond with

    "mr saddams a great guy ,we often had him and the kids over for tea ,those nice curds up north bought some chemicals from us and mixed them up wrong and gassed themselves ,women are reveared and tales of torture are western bullshine"

    implausable yes, it would be a case of the first plane back home ,its in the intrest of the defector to provide incriminating stuff the more he gives the more the chance of being given western goodies it matters not a jot to him if its true or untrue the more he speaks the more he gets.

    the pictures showing iraq rebuilding its resourses are misinterpritations(or damn lies) (the picture of the nuclear power station? being rebuilt was infact proved wrong by news men ) saddam is not a fool he knows america has eyes in the sky ,if he`s building its under the cities not in the middle of the dessert for all to see,we cannot blindly raise to the ground complete cities to get to them ,the lives lost would be crinimal.

    harbouring terrorists ,i expect all countries do we have quite a few ,but do to the fact that its against the human rights act to send them to a country with the death penalty so we`re stuck with them untill further notice or decide themselves to leave :(

    mr idi amin who ethnicly cleansed all indians from his country and committed horrific acts on his own people now lives (or did)in splendor and wealth (most of it aid money) in saudi arabia .show me a poor leader of a poor country :mad: that mugabe dont wear hessian his suits are saville row.

    so we wait for the un to speak ,if they say go in then they have the rest of the world behind them if bush goes in then he is acting on his own and probably illegally ,we wait and see :)

  4. my first double was at horton kirby in the sixties ,i went from about 3oz`s to 18lbs in one jump ,most of the anglers came round to see this monster (we didnt know most of the time what the general size of fish in the lake were) i think at the time i had a mention in the news of the world (not very good umberella prize) fishing in those days was a bit hit or miss (nowadays catching the biggest known fish in a pond is more or less a weekly event) i know the 39lb cat in my local pond has had more pictures in the angling press than the editor :D

    i remember catching a 5lb tench in the same lake which took as i was putting the rod down ,i could not fathom the reason the penny kept falling off

    for a while (i may have got the umbrella for that i cant remember) but a five lb tench was a specimin then ,nowadays both fish would be nuscience fish stopping the angler getting to "blind bill" or "splitty" or whatever the pet name of the big boys are :D

    both were taken on sausage meat ,the killer "in" bait at the time

    i still haven broken the 30 barrier yet theve been close but i still have a few years yet :D

  5. they may have been banned but did we all in honesty throw tubs of now illegal shot away ,or did we use up the old stuff before buying new?

    probably the reason the swan population has declined on some rivers is because of the rise in swan "sanctuaries" after all a daily free feed is always better than grubbing around in dirty old river beds.

    lead shot and its poison will be around for hundreds of years ,i detected an old pond that was being refurbished the banks were just one big signal (lead ,silver paper etc) and once dredged the lake bed was the same ,yes we know now thats its poisonus ,but our predecssors didnt know or more likely care ,our defence is now its non toxic

    unfortunatly nowadays not a defence (as in the case of asbestos ) that counts ,yes swans will die because of lead ,but thousands will live because of improved water conditions( usually because of angling pressure) .

  6. saddam can use his weapons against any one he chooses ,all he has to do is declare war on them or say the country harbours terrorists bent on outing him (self defence),infact the same reasons we can use ours ,hopefully like the brits he wont use them knowing what the outcome would be ,its called the nuclear deterrent and it works both ways ,whats sauce for the goose etc

    he knows what the outcome of using weapons of mass distruction would be ,his country reduced to a molton mass of sand ,but in the end its still his choice ,anybody with the right ingrediants can make a "dirty" nuke ,the best place to make it would be within the country targetted .we have the technology to detect incoming missiles ,no-one can detect a lone bomber inside their own borders .probably by now we have several thousand potential bombers living under the guise of " immigrants" all they need is the materials and a reason and watch the fireworks ,best thing we can do is not give them a reason :) the best way to silence the arabs would be to sort the israel / palestine issue ,put the isreal borders back to the 1948 size (by all means let the israelis build there own "berlin" wall ,when the israel matter is solved the arab states at the moment siding with saddam will again favour the west and mr hussain will be out on his own again.

    if were so het up against countries supporting terrorism ,then one of them to look at is america ,the american irish have been funding the ira for years and ofcourse there is another saying "those of you who are innocent cast the first stone" i am sure we and america will be at the end of the list as stone chuckers :(

    i think you think i am on the arabs side ,i am not ,i am showing the other side of the coin ,i would leap with joy if the far east started chucking bombs at each other ,infact even better would be the annialation of all foreigners ,i fail to see there use ,so no bias or discrimination from me no racist comments no religeouse reteric ,kill em all

  7. as i have said to others if you are going to start camping join the camping and caravan club ,their sites book is huge ,the ones with fishing are clearly marked and offsite fishing within a mile also :)

  8. my point was

    iraq gassed some people that lived in the north of their country.

    we tried to gas about everybody we could in the first world war.

    the ethnic cleansing in kosova.

    we ethnicly cleansed tasmania ,america ethnicly cleansed the native americans

    and the native inhabitants of some islands off america were removed (cant remember who they are)

    bush`s remark " he`s attacked/invaded 2 countries in his reign"

    america has made 250+ armed interferences in foreign countries (one under our soverenity)we have probably done the same

    if saddam gets the bomb he may use it ,america dropped 2 bombs on an already defeated country (the second one for no apparent reason)

    in the normandy landings the troops were instucted to take no prisoners (it may have been the battle of the bulge in the last stages of the war i cannot remember)no prisoners = execution

    cuba has had a naval blockade for thirty years because they MAY have been given nukes by the reds ,america filled europe with the things.

    the melting point and the sore point in the east is isreal ,a country we provided without thought to the concequenses ,israel is the key not saddam

    my point is ,if we have done all this why cant they? is it a case of "do as we say not do as we do" or is it in the case of saddam "monkey see monkey do"

    we are the last people to tell anyone to do anything ,all they are doing is exactly what we did

    in the past ,if we stopped interfering in their affairs maybe they would concentrate on their own,

    weapons of mass distruction or weapons of defence ,saddam is entitled to make the same mistakes as us

    :( i cannot see the difference between us :confused: if we had the modern chemical nerve gasses we have now in the last war do you think we WOULDNT have used them :)

  9. yep the normans won by default our lot had just kicked the ass of a far more dangerouse aponanant up north ,then had to rush down to deal with the normans

    had they come a month earlier when we were ready french people would be speaking english (again)

    and remember we were playing war before your country even existed ,your inhabitants still in the stoneage and the biggest thing is most of your lot decended from us ,yes we were kicked out (it was a long way to sail back to get refreshments) is it jealosy on your part that the american empire consists of a few scrawny islands ,even your biggest state was bought :D

    and remember you lot arnt beyond a bit of ethnic cleansing yourself ,infact some of your weapons you use to force you ideals on the world are named after a few ethnicly cleansed peoples language ,tomahawks ,apache etc etc seems a bit strange for a country thats morals are far above us brits ,is there anything the americans can do that we havent done before :D

  10. young county councillors excepted ,maybe the leaders of the concerned countries should fight ,axes would be good ,like the good old days ,we should be able to muster 30,000 so called polititions and their councillor stooges ,should be very entertaining ,a way for the people to see them earning their inflated wages ,their recently enhanced retirement funds and bupa cover should come in handy :D

  11. a red haired canadian :confused: i thought they all had axes ,checked shirts and were called jaques (even the blokes) is she a mail order bride :D and as for dropping the "u" from colour its just to stop you invading them ,there pretending to be north north americans ,our colonies are usually filled with the rejects of london streets ,we let the french stay to add a continental flavour ,even canadians have to hate someone :D

  12. not very british if they live in america ,the only people to get upset at not getting complete stiffs are the hindu`s (if there were any) you have to be complete to go to their heaven (including afterbirth)us brits found a great way of upsetting them when we tamed india ,we used to tie them to to front of cannons and fire through them ,you lot dont know anything about war ,unfortunatly in this p.c. world were getting ethnic cleansing as in the case of tasmania is becoming taboo :(

    if our leaders had exterminated the inhabitants of conquered countries we would not be in the state we are today

  13. better still buy two pairs of waders thigh length for the inner ones ,these should be taped to the thighs using gaffa tape the inners will keep your legs dry whilst the outers (i recondmend chest waders) will house the offending matter for several weeks ,the methane produced from the fermentation could be used to power a blow lamp for bankside painstripping or just to heat your food thus ensuring a healthy bio renewable source of power ,also in case of falling in the lake the trapped gas would act as a bio bouancy aid (unfortunatly youl be floating head down ,but a craftily sculpted jet could be made with an electric ignitor ,if you fall in ignite the jet and you will be safely rocketed back to the safety of terra fima

  14. i would insist on "hand plucking" by yourself to verify the age ,also checking that the hairs in question arn`t tampered with and free from unatural colourants ,i was once ripped off by a blond woman who insisted that the removal was done under the cover of darkness and to ensure the catching power of the intended fly was 100% it had to be in an ally way amounst foul smelling dustbins,on examining my haul in the clear of daylight realised she was an undercover common or garden mousey brown ,on insisting on a refund the following night i was acosted by a large brown chap with gold teeth and a nose dribble ,his hair was total unsuitable but on ironing i managed to tie some reasonable floaters :D
