    Flooding and drought?

    It would be interesting if anyone who lived near one of these drought hit resevoirs could post up a picture as they look now compared to a month ago. I realise that rain takes longer to replenish the aquifer in the 'summertime' as an official on the news at ten has just put it, but I don't know...

    A HUGE and REAL Problem

    Great post. My view would be that, like for many problems, the answer is probably 'asymmetric'. It baffles me how the British are willing to accept the status quo no matter how bad things are. Don't complain, don't get angry about things that are out of your control. I'm just as guilty...

    Long Term Pellet Storage

    I've caught barbel on elips pellets that I kept in a plastic tub in my shed (hot in summer, cold in winter) for four years. I'm not saying that freshness isn't important, but maybe it isn't as important as some would have you believe. cheers

    Bankside concealment.......Hilarious!

    Wow. Only £10.35 as well - not much for a 'concealment system' though. As you say Neil - what price invisibility? :D

    Food!

    A man after my own heart. What about some nice serrano or parma ham as well? If the weather is good you can't beat this kind of food. If it's cold I'm a bacon butty or sausage roll kind of guy though. cheers

    Ahhhhhh that's better.

    I know a lady (who will remain nameless) who tells me that HRH isn't averse to a little farting around the staff. You can also add to this a surprising amount of 'effing and jeffing', as it were. Queen's English? "F-off! Pick up that ****e for me please little person." Regards Mike

    Pair - fox kevlar barbel multi tip rods

    I also am not completely happy with the prospect of having a price agreed and then for the seller to change their minds because they've had a better offer. I'm for the fixed price as well but, as Chris said, Justin can conduct his business any way he likes as long as he's not breaking any rules.

    Luncheon meat and growth hormones

    So Jim, it's your wife's fault that barbel were growing extra barbules in the nineteen eighties, but it can't be proved until her english improves? Are we also faced with the possibility that luncheon meat might be a viable alternative to the pill?
