  3. Anti mating jackets and a mixture of salt and lard rubbed well into the neck and shoulders . Breasts too won't hurt none at all .
  4. When one is lucky enough to get one of them elusive pairs that breed winners I often have to smile when I see, after all the trouble and strife, heartache and trying to get a pair that breeds winners, 'Goldern Pair' how many are sold on!
  5. Best Tory joke since... well David himself lol The year is 2013 ... While on his morning walk, Prime Minister David Chameleon, has a heart attack and dies because the 'accident and emergency' dept at his nearest hospital is too understaffed to treat him in time. So his soul arrives in Heaven and is met by Saint Peter at the Pearly Gates. 'Welcome to Heaven,' says Saint Peter, 'before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a Tory around these parts, hence not sure what to do with you'. 'No problem, just let me in; I'm a good Christian; I'm a believer,' says David ‘I’d like to just let you in, but I have orders from God. He says that since the implementation of his new HEAVEN CHOICES policy, you have to spend one day in Hell and one day in Heaven. Then you must choose where you'll live for eternity.' 'But I've already made up my mind. I want to be in Heaven,' replies Chameleon 'I'm sorry, but we have our rules,' Peter interjects. And, with that St. Peter escorts him to a lift and he goes down, down, down ... all the way to Hell. The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a lush golf course. The sun is shining in a cloudless sky. The temperature is a perfect 22C degree. In the distance is a beautiful clubhouse. Standing in front of it is Willie Whitelaw with Maggie Thatcher whom he quickly got aroused over with and thoughts of Bed…. and thousands of other conservative luminaries who had helped him out over the years ---Hesseltine, Duncan, Dave Davies even, etc. The whole of the Tory Party leaders were there ... (and all the Republicans and Capitalists from other parts of the world. Everyone was laughing, happy, and casually but expensively dressed. They run to greet him, to hug him and to reminisce about the good times they had getting rich at the expense of 'suckers and peasants.' They play a friendly game of golf and then dine on lobster and caviar. The Devil himself even comes up to Dave with a frosty drink, 'Have a tequila and relax, Dave!' 'Uh, I can't drink anymore; I took a pledge,' says Chameleon, dejectedly. 'This is Hell, son. You can drink and eat all you want and not worry and it just gets better from there!' He takes the drink and finds himself liking the Devil, who he thinks is a really very friendly bloke who tells funny jokes like himself and pulls hilarious nasty pranks, kind of like the ones the Tory Party pulled with their’ master strokes on Education, Immigration, Petrol prices, Tough on Crime promises. Indeed he seemed one of their’ very own! They are having such a great time that, before he realises it, it's time to go. Everyone gives him a big hug and waves as Dave steps on the lift and heads upward. When the lift door reopens, he is in Heaven again and Saint Peter is waiting for him. 'Now it's time to visit Heaven,' the old man says, opening the gate. So for 24 hours Dave is made to hang out with a bunch of honest, good-natured people who enjoy each other's company, talk about things other than money and treat each other decently. Not a nasty prank or short-*expletive removed* joke among them. No fancy country clubs here and, while the food tastes great, it's not caviar or lobster. And these people are all poor. He doesn't see anybody he knows and he isn't even treated like someone special! 'Whoa,' he says uncomfortably to himself. 'Maggie never prepared me for this!' The day done, Saint Peter returns and says, 'Well, you've spent a day in Hell and a day in Heaven. Now choose where you want to live for Eternity.' With the 'Deal or No Deal' theme playing softly in the background, Chameleon reflects for a minute ... Then answers: 'Well, I would never have thought I'd say this -- I mean, Heaven has been delightful and all -- but I really think I belong in Hell with my friends.' So Saint Peter escorts him to the lift and he goes down, down, down, all the way to Hell. The doors of the lift open and he is in the middle of a barren scorched earth covered with garbage and toxic industrial wasteland, looking a bit like the eroded, rabbit and fox affected Australian outback, but worse and more desolate. He is horrified to see all of his friends, dressed in rags and chained together, picking up the roadside rubbish and putting it into black plastic bags. They are groaning and moaning in pain, face and hands black with grime. The Devil comes over to David and puts an arm around his shoulder.' I don't understand,' stammers a shocked David, 'Yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and a club-house and we ate lobster and caviar and drank tequila. We lazed around and had a great time… Now there's just a wasteland full of garbage and everybody looks miserable!' The Devil looks at him, smiles slyly and purrs, 'Yesterday we were campaigning; today you voted for us!

  7. Yep Mark, that's what use to happen. Tethered to a branch then when old enough taken to a shed at bottom of garden or such for later 'Pigeon Pie'. We used to pluck and draw two to a pie. Now they just take of the breast and mix in with a sausage meat.
  8. I live in an Avenue. So obviously there are trees down both sides of the road. Now we have wood pigeons not nesting only in the tress - next doors back garden etc - but in the 'Eves' under the guttering on the front of the houses. Yes House Martin style. The upside down V has a ledge where there have built their nests and are sitting tight.
  9. I believe too many breed to offset their losses. Owen's and Jimmy's posts are very relevant and true. What I feel then though is the simple reality as to why a better 'Average' is simply because over a period of time they have weeded out many lost causes and are thus breeding from proven stock. Even then of course they have a percentage of losses, and this will I think vary from season to season. BUT the hard work of weeding out inferior stock has not only been done, but continues to be done every season. A stringent and never ending process I fear. Further it is far far easier to fill up a loft with birds that are simply not good enough, through breeding a quantity in 'Hope' rather than using a yardstick! The first yardstick has to be the loft, then Club / Fed etc. etc. The main problem is lack of patience I fear. Yes it will take 2 - 3 years for birds to be given a fair chance. So getting in and breeding from a 'Good sauce' in the first place is essenstial too I believe. JMO.
  10. I like the new lay out of the site. Once folks get used to the change, - which no one is paricularly fond of in any way shape or form, the numbers will soar. Best site by far since the ole original Camanco, without a doubt.
  11. I have old drinkers / grit boxes, pots etc. etc. and even covered drink troughs. Mind having in mind birds on the 'natural' these most enjoy picking about in the garden etc. and not a lot of call for grit as such. However, now that the birds aren't out much of late, I find after a good scrape, just sprinkling a bit on floor before placing feeding, and leave after placing feed this serves as good as anthing. Indeed I just scrape up any left at the next morning clean. No I don't use every day. And if one does, they will still pick about in the garden etc.
  12. Never mind 'Brits' they are English Lol :) :P ;D ;D ;D Just joshing the sassanachs and the highlanders

    man c v man utd

    A lot of truth in that. Always said the same.
  14. Thats the proud stand of a good doo I reckon.
  15. An elderly couple, who were both widowed, had been going out with each other for a long time. Urged on by their friends, they decided it was finally time to get married. Before the wedding, they went out to dinner and had a long conversation regarding how their marriage might work. They discussed finances, living arrangements and so on. Finally, the old gentleman decided it was time to broach the subject of their physical relationship. 'How do you feel about sex?' he asked, rather tentatively. 'I would like it infrequently' she replied. The old gentleman sat quietly for a moment, adjusted his glasses, leaned over towards her and whispered - 'Is that one word or two?' THINK ABOUT LOL
  16. Why indeed Jas ... indeed why not let canker run a while and do like the ole timers - as they are now - and use a match! ... sulphur head. When real bad we could turn the match and collect it all the fuzz up. Then just dab the head of the match in and round the throat etc. Worked then, so why not now ....
  17. ;D ;D ;D
  18. Maybe., but the other Yanks - owners of Man U are £800,000,000 in debt. So that is three time more than Liverpool yanks. Mind, Glaciers are allowed to take £505,000,000 out of the club re-sauces etc. as per agreement this year. And they will it is widely rumoured. That that would be a £Billion and £400,000, 000 debt Man U will be in. Obviously has to be sold before that happens I guess. So in real terms Man U are by far worst of finacailly now that Liverpool! They well be in dire straights soon. For whatever happens, if the Glaciers take out their £ 505 million this year - where it comes from Heavan knows, and even more every year after as per agreement, then that will have made them very shrew investors and within 12 months have made 33% at least profit back in their *expletive removed* pocket.... A cool £100,000,000 PLUS! yes a cool One hundred million. And who says they will have to sale? No one eh!... or sell of a bankcrupcy club eh! :-/ :o :P ;D ;D
  19. So I did http://www.womens-health.co.uk/thrush.html Like I said there are a number of different ... http://www.google.co.uk/#hl=en&source=hp&q=thrush+yeast+infection+treatment&meta=&rlz=1R2GPCK_en&aq=2&aqi=g5&aql=&oq=Thrush+Yeast&gs_rfai=&fp=8ad4ec2e82acecdc I mean that is why the fancy turned to Thrush treatment to get a better stronger remedy.
  20. Nystan is for 'Thrush' and on prescription only here. Sorry to say it is the same - or family, as there are 29 different variations.... Nystan is effective for them all... Not over used of corse. Any and all other treament, remedies, have to be changed after 2 (3 Tops) as the canker quickly gets immuned to it. Be interesting to 'Google it gal.
  21. My first round youngsters, upto 5 days old and still hatching out.
  22. £13 50p for 4 nights camping at the moment ... Missis has the bug already, and I've got my first round of youngsters hatching out, let alone sorted out any training yet lol. Soon be the 1st week of May lol.
  23. I reckon, in reality, a bid of £200, or there abouts would get them. Sure they are worth a lot, lot more. But realism begs that they have to be competatively priced to any new ones bought. Now that would be serious money. That's around the £13 and a half mark. A real deal and bargain. Maybe 3-4 -5 people could buy between yous... :-/
  24. Thanks Bigda. I was, until recently, touring for 2 week of the year in Scotland. Started on, and still going up, on the West coast. Got up as far as Fort William / Ben Nevis. Yes I know more and better to come lol. Yes have also do a bit on the East coast and central Scotland. Often go Wales too. Found the ole National Cheapest are Idea for using as a base and eating out and going to the club at night ... nice really as we can't understand a word they are saying lol.
  25. A womans thrush is the same as a pigeon's canker. Yeast. What makes me laugh sometimes is when treating (ed) for yeast you often hear it said.. '.... Give them brewers yeast ... ) :-/ :-/ :o Would have thought any yeast then would be taboo. Indeed I personally think any yeast in any way shape or form is a no goer anytime as far as I am concerned. But everyone to their own of course.
