  1. Andrew, see your GP - Ramipril 2 x 5mg per day re blood pressure - I don't have high blood pressure but standard heart attack kit. Just had a platinum quote for our Mexican holiday. Highest was £4.350 lowest was £1.875. Diabetic, high blood pressure and cholesterol Got it cheaper though. Atorvastatin 80 mg per day (my cholesterol is 3.4 with these) Insurance for Mexico & Jamaica was under £100 for both of us. (but I'm not Diabetic and wife's had breast cancer surgery & meds within that time which we declared)
  2. Keep some empty/used syringes back for inflating worms.
  3. You might want to consider passing them on to a charity shop & have the satisfaction that you've had the pleasure of owning & reading the books and that it's time to let them go to a good cause?? Better that, than to let them go for nix to the "Not as Described Brigade" Chesters mentioned!! A 2nd hand book shop might give you a small few quid for some of the better ones. But is it worth your Petrol??
  4. Toby Nye - God rest your Courageous little soul. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-47005929
  5. Tackle to the value of yours should maybe have been declared & insured separately mate, along with photo's of the main gear along with telling them it's stored in an outbuilding. They'll then give you a quote for the sum insured. (If they won't then go to an insurer who will)
  6. You don't need a little help mate - you need a bigger Net!!
  7. You could try copy & paste the Link to "Images for julian@anglers-net" (If that's you??) Then Edit the post to your requirements.
  8. The Pareto principle (the 80/20 principle) states that 80% of issues are caused by 20%. Let's talk about knife crime!! One is significantly more likely to be stabbed by a black male than a white male - Fact!! PS - I have some very good friends of whom happen to be black & wouldn't dream of such a thing!!
  9. Sounds like a great Idea to get kids off the street & motivated in a positive direction. The Truth, (And Fishing) "Will Set You Free".
  10. Seen it mate, yes I'll be looking out & thanks.
  11. When I was a kid, the sole purpose of a Drone was to fertilise the Queen Bee - then die!!
  12. Had this happened say in Spain, the perpetrators would have been shot first - then questions asked later!! "La Garde Civile" don't mess about.
  13. The 10 Grand at 4/9 punters are usually OK. The ones they don't like are the chancers who regularly nick the each way money!! (£300 - £500 e/w @ 9/2+ almost every day)

    Seems it's OK to name kids what one pleases when one has the money to sue when it goes tits up!! If you don't have the money - stick to Louise or something!!
  15. Maybe possible for maggots to eat a natural fabric like wool?? Or maybe this!! https://www.hunker.com/12455674/how-to-get-maggots-out-of-carpet
  16. Great post & read John. You could try making up a 3 or even 4 foot hook length for bread & bomb for the Chub. They might find it a bit more tempting, fluttering more naturally in the flow - & away from the bomb??
  17. 9.4 for Artistic Interpretation (points deducted for surviving!!) Much better.
  18. Bottom line is, when we come out - we'll still be in!! A bit like being a non trade union member at work - but still expected to fall in with the union members say, with little or no say in the decision making process.
  19. There's every likelihood he was. He & us just had our legs smacked for it by UAE. They always had every intention of releasing him in due course once their point was made. He was hardly just Backpacking!! Money talks!!!
  20. As against Virtual Peoples shoes?? Or These ..........
  21. But chesters - I've heard you only wear Slip on shoes!!
  22. Horse racing is the sport of Kings, but everyone is equal, on the turf, and - Under it!!
  23. Baby snake says to his Mum - are we poisonous?? No sweetie, we're constrictors!! Thank heaven for that - I've just bit me' Tongue!!
  24. Thought our Gun shops need more work than your side of the pond buddy - re the right to bear arms in your (Somewhat Flawed) Constitution!! There's a lot more work to do on your side than ours!!
