Two days on the mayfly, beat two or below on Broadlands? Stay at the Cromwell and get pissed with the keepers. Then a gentle drive home, hang the waders, light a bergamot and orange posh candle - trust me it even hides the stench of bream slime - and enjoy your reunion together. Hug her...

I’m sure we are in full agreement with your main point. :) The subtleties of where the younger generation should direct their ire is a moot point and a valid discussion. I’m just more pissed off with the fact that so many just moan on social media rather than get off their arses and actually...

I didn’t. Nope. Yup.

You did indeed, apologies, I was on a rant after just reading your first paragraph. :) On the other hand, I thought your comparison between marching for our democracy and your derision for soppy-bollocks tomfoolery is just plain odd in the context of this discussion.

But why don’t we stand up to it? Why aren’t we marching against this utter destruction of everything I thought a modern forward looking country like us, should be. Johnson has trampled all over everything I believed in about this country, and he couldn’t give a feck. And we just sit there...

I’m sixty bloody two, so I’ve seen all sorts of political crap, and you are totally right. I’m not a political person, I read manifesto’s and see both positives and negative’s with every party and try and vote accordingly. Hence why avoid posting on political threads, if one mentions a...

Nail on the head, wholesale gas prices have recently crashed to 2020 levels yet bills will increase significantly the next time the cap is reviewed.

Just so long as your small vegetable patch is suffering ‘serious damage’ to its crops, vegetables, fruit, and growing timber that exceeds mere nuisance, minor damage or normal business risk. And even then, only after you’ve failed to solve the problem by using Alternative lawful methods! :)

The only circumstances where you are now permitted to shoot wood pigeon are to prevent following:- Livestock - feedstuffs and spread of disease Crops, fruit and vegetables

The General Licences have been updated. Shooting wood pigeon for the pot is, bizarrely, now illegal.

The fact you made that point, that you’ve trained your dog to fit your family’s requirements, but acknowledge that you’re dog is capable of more, suggests to me you really understand dogs. Kids and puppies aren’t a good mix for training, but it sounds like you managed it. Can I ask where...

I know what you mean but I’ve never owned a nutter springer, this is three of the current team who came with me to visit one of my godson’s. Waiting patiently at the bar..

Brilliant that you’ve ended up with a dog that clearly fits with you and your family. My experience of training other people’s springador’s is that some have the best bits of both breeds and are stunning in the field, whilst others have the dominant lab food drive coupled with the excessive...

Yes, most of his commissions are pet or horse portraits. I’ll check what he currently charges and let you know. (I was looking on his website to see if he published his prices and if I’m honest, your wife’s pictures are better!)

Those are genuinely stunning, yes she should definitely give it a go, she’s very talented. I’ve got a mate who makes a tidy living doing this.

Fair enough, I’m not trying to change anyones minds, it’s my opinion. I’m no expert on Dunk, but didn’t he equal the most own goals scored in that first EPL season? Maybe that had a bearing on Southgate’s decision rather than some bias towards the clubs he’d played for during his career? I...

Unless I’ve misread your post, there’s 9 years difference in age between Guehi and Dunk. I’m not taking the piss, like I said I think Dunks a good player, but wasn’t he banging in own goals pretty regularly 3-4 years ago?

I’ve had and trained working dogs all my life, these days it’s ESS. Probably my favourite breed, so easy to train and wonderful temperaments. [the latter photo is in a friends boot room, I’ve never allowed my dogs onto chairs]

Whilst I honestly believe that Guehi is marginally better that Dunk, I agree with your sentiment. IMO the only thing that really goes against Dunk in Southgate eyes is his age.

How on earth have we as a country sunk so low that this is even considered acceptable. We wunt be druv? I’m not trolling, I’m being serious. How is this even considered acceptable practice?
