  1. Looks a lovely place to fish Snatcher, you'll not want to come home at this rate
  2. Smashing report again Snatcher Thanks for sharing.
  3. At least you've got a Pint mug, i'm drinking out of the bottle
  4. Aw Andrew. I broke my George the V jug. Such is the nature of quaffing vessels.
  5. It makes you wonder. My mate followed a woman down the A303 for miles, she was brushing her hair, putting her lipstick on etc. She pulled into the petrol station & my mate went upto her, said "Your hair looks lovely, now can you concentrate on looking forwards"
  6. It was wetter in Roman times but the UK was also warmer, we were the bread basket of the Roman Empire. Grapes were commonly grown here too. The water table may well have been higher but we are unlikely to see it return to that level due to the phenominal amount of groundwater extraction that goes on now. don't forget all the drought orders as the aquifers are empty. It got cooler in Medieval times then to the extreme of the Thames freezing over in Victorian times. Its quite probable that Man's use of fossil fuels warmed the climate up from then on. We are, as far as we can tell, still in an ice age, there have been longer & warmer interglacial periods than the present 10,000 year one. Ice ages are not just about atmospheric CO2 levels, but more likely to be caused by Solar output. We've only been measuring Solar output for 50 odd years and both heat and radio output have been falling in that time. We won't know for another year and a half if the Sun is going into a Hibernation Period. If it does, then its more than likely that the ice sheets will start to roll across Europe and North America again. This was bad enough last time but now there are Millions of People in the way. Where will they all go? I've got my own theories as to why we are being told Global Warming is such a bad thing. You never hear a Politician start a Global Warming speach with the truth. The truth is, CO2 levels now are at their lowest point since the Coal Measures removed loads of it from the atmosphere in the Carboniferous Period. They have been thousands of times higher in the past. If Global Warming continues, we will loose low lying land, The Fens, Holland, Bangladesh & so on. If the ice sheets extend as far south as they did last time we will loose half of Europe, all of Canada & a bit of North America. Puts it into perspective really.

    A quiz

    Nice one N4lly I got 294
  9. Has this had any effect on the property market in Spain at all Dave?
  10. I've been getting that pop up too, saying something like can't run scripts on this page & closing it to recover webpage?
  11. The RYA do courses, http://www.rya.org.uk/coursestraining/Pages/default.aspx I did my Marine Radio Certificate with them too.
  12. Ollie went out on a board, with a large bait, into Shark infested waters?
  13. Wow, excellent report, looks like you had a bronze whale of a time
  14. Most excellent Elton :clap2: Only caught one of em myself, nowhere near that size off the beach.
  15. Very tempting. My mate was watching the rugby on the same wi fi as me, I waited till a crucial point in the match & then uploaded 20 pics to Photobucket. Should have heard him scream
  16. Hey Dave, Suprised at that as the Runner Bean is a perenial in frost free climates, Haba beans probably taste better though
  17. Is that because its too hot, or too dry Dave?
  18. So if you install an app like that, all your Facebook friends could see that you've just watched Lesbian Mudwrestlers on YouTube
  19. Just re read that Ken. i'm with you now. Same way you'd do a roll of cuttings, nice one
  20. Think I understood that Ken Same as sowing peas in a length of guttering? I do that & suspend it from the greenhouse roof, stops the mice getting to them, then just slide the plants out.
  21. Sowed some Bridgwater Beans last week, soaked them overnight & then put them an inch deep in just slightly damp compost, made sure it wasn't wet. They've all come up & are about 8 inches high. Need to harden them off but the wind is still cold here. So just putting them on a cooler windowsill for now.
  22. Blimey, doesn't sound good, stay tucked up & warm & keep the fluids up. Wheres Nurse Judy when you need her?
  23. Thats a terrible case, unbelievable that the captain wasn't informed.
