Without wishing to be “that guy” and I genuinely welcome the reintroduction, should we not concern ourselves with fixing the fish tank before throwing more fish in it?

If it’s anything like the other engines in the Volkswagen Audi Group then I think you’ve got a few miles left bud. Each of my previous three VWs have had in excess of 150k trouble free miles, one I got 170k out of it before it was chopped in.

A fair point. I suppose there’s a few variables there, clearly a Strawberry grown outside in the U.K. in season and sold in the U.K. would be the lowest Carbon cost. However one grown in an artificially heated/lit environment could potentially have a higher cost than one transported from the...

Indeed a good proportion of my fridge was dragged across the continent at huge Carbon cost, for our convenience. The British public demand strawberries in December and want to pay tuppence for the privilege, it’s just no good for us. I admit I’m guilty of it. Low price, low profit, low shelf...

Manure is as old as the hills, the ability to move away from manure based fertilisers which were once exported and traded onto manufactured fertilisers is in part what drove the industrial revolution.

I’m not as old as done here I’m aware but I’d kind of forgotten what mail order looked like pre the internet. It’s quite quaint really isn’t it, sending your little slip off in the post or phoning someone up. Usually off a page in a magazine. A few of my hobbies back then, mail order was the...

No, they’re weird things. Very resilient.

I had a go with a pair of Orvis ones a few years back, they were outstanding. I currently have Oakleys, brilliant driving glasses, reasonable fishing glasses.

At the end of the day, who is to blame. If people had been more responsible and respectful the issue wouldn’t of occurred. I haven’t fished the place and was interested, for the experience if nothing else. I’m sure there will much uproar in some corner of the internet but if things had got that...

Not surprised that was a bargain.

The folding net looks crazily like the Fox one I have that Advanti started doing…

Literally chicken an egg though isn’t it. If you had 10 chickens per acre you could feed as much as you pleased, 10 per square meter, even under fed there producing too much waste. The animal is immaterial it’s the intensive nature of the activity. In terms of excess nutrient input, farm run...

I think the idea of blaming hali pellets is a bit like blaming the issues around battery hens on layers pellet. The intensity of the farming and its effect from pathogen to nutrients is a result of practice. Speaking from decades of fish keeping frozen (ie natural feed) is to condition or...

I know we’ve been here before but many many things in life are made in same Chinese factories, they have districts that make glass for example. Many brands are going to Chinese manufacturers with a spec, a price is given and they slap your logo on it. If there’s over run, mis production (Quality...

I actually use a quick change swivel on my combi’s. Means I can store a few of the braided bit and if I want to make a change to hook size or simply because of damage I can in seconds. Brilliant for my smash and dash style, usually in the dark.

I can’t help but roll my eyes at some of these things Chris, a flexitarian, some days or meals eats meals others does not. No mate that’s just called eating, also things like weetabix or rice aren’t vegan food, they’re just food. Also when did flip flops without the big between your toes get...

Oddly enough I didn’t make much out of going the Bath yesterday either… :D

Well there you go, shame I didn’t come up with it first or I wouldn’t of been in Bath city centre at 6am this morning.

I’ve come to the conclusion I had to rethink my thought process on people, I always (because it’s how it’s painted) of these things being a linear process, left and right with a centre. I now don’t believe this. I now think of it like a upside down tear drop. The bulk of people have similar...

Looks like a scale model of the D Stour that.
