[Rudyard Kipling]

This thought policing aint just in university's. Its also in my workplace.We arent allowed to verbally abuse each other unless it is "banter".Nicknames arent allowed in case it is offensive. Nearly everyone has a nickname .I have one based on my size and having a big tash I cant sleep at night worrying about the damage it is doing to my self esteem

Our subs are probably stuck on a sandbank somewhere at least portland down is getting 48 million thrown at it✌

[pretty crude faking on ebay]

No, I don't drink boiled water, or any other water, I drink tea and coffee made with boiled water, it tastes of either tea or coffee.

 

I've not seen a doctor about any illness of mine since about 1960, (physical injuries yes, but illness, no), so those bugs don't seem to be doing me any harm.

 

When I was a grandchild, I had what I was given by grandparents, that would usually be some sort of squash made with carbonated water, (there would have been no demanding tolerated), I've still got granddads soda syphon in a cupboard somewhere.

 

Simple is turning on the tap and filling the kettle, no filters to replace, ever!

my water also tastes of tea or coffee I dont drink tap water unless it is boiled, Milk is my favourite drink but no doubt that is bad for me

[Oh, the weather outside is frightful]

[Robson Green Grand Slam Fishing]

Have watched the programme a few times but he is far too hyper for me, maybe its put on but all the shouting is too over the top for me .

[braided line]

Ken the reason I am fishing long range is the bigger fish stay far out in the lakes because of foot traffic on the bank . I have fished them since I was a kid they dont have bars or snags so abrasion isnt a problem

[braided line]

Thank you very much for the information chaps .Phone I am useless at hitting roach and bream at long distance and thought braid may be more sensitive and make my catch rate better lol .Also where I intend to fish is mainly a big carp water has a minimum of 15 lb bs line rule so thought the thinner diameter braid would get me round this as 15lb mono isnt good for bream fishing

[braided line]

Merry Christmas to everyone. I could do with some info I,m biting the bullet and going to use braid for feeder fishing has anyone used it to target bream on the quiver. I would appreciate any recommendations on which brand to use and colour plus rigs .I have read some stuff but still confused .I have read I may need a shock leader is braid too weak to take a decent cast if so how what leader breaking strain would i need thanks in advance Rob

[Are there any roofers in the house?]

Ayjay,

 

I'm going to be even more impressed if you tell me that is a new "top" for an existing structure that's probably not either level or square?

 

Phone

Phone even new structures are very rarely square or dead level let alone old ones

[Are there any wood butchers in the house?]

Sorry mate. That which is asserted without evidence can be rejected without evidence. I don't believe you and I doubt that anyone else would.

 

Even a photo of your workshop and tools might help.

like I care what you believe

[Are there any wood butchers in the house?]

Never taken any

[Are there any roofers in the house?]

 

I always tried to avoid erecting trussed roofs (pre-fabricated), cut roofs were what I preferred to do - with nails. (Retired me also too old and worn out .Got a nice inside job now

 

[Are there any wood butchers in the house?]

Just a little joke on my part I am aware of his valour and of the other Americans who fought and died helping us and our allies

[One for Corydoras and Newt.]

And for that little jib, might I remind you that Audie Murphy was amongst the highest decorated Soldiers of WWII, who was awarded EVERY award or citation for bravery from the US, French and Belgiam Gov.

I thought John Wayne and Audrey Murphy won the war
