Thank you for seeing the wood from the trees, Ridgley. Buy I think the main issue on this thread is that some people refuse to accept reality. That reality is that a great deal of hunters (such as myself) do still take large game with either a bow or crossbow; even if we have to go abroad to do it. But they've proved themselves unable - or unwilling - to accept what's patently obvious, so there's really no point in carrying on with this discussion.
My preferred hunting technique is to find somewhere that's thick with pheasants - then I simply run them over with the car and bag the ones which are not too badly squashed. My merc has a front spoiler quite close to the ground - ideal for taking out a whole flock of them at a time...why waste money on trips abroad with bows and arrows and all that rubbish???

You love it really...admit it Scribbles.


Why else would you keep coming back spouting the rubbish that you do.

If you were older than 12yrs you'd have the Intelligence to ignore this.

You'd also be playing with grown up guns and not little cap guns and crossbows.


You act like a complete twat and you are hideously rude.

I'm not "spouting rubbish". I'm commenting on a subject that the majority who've contributed to this thread seem to think is out-dated and cruel, which it patently isn't. And I have ignored this thread up until now, but Annette Curtain felt it necessary to resurect it, not I.


And I'm not being "hideously rude", either. I'm replying in kind, you oaf. For instance, if someone 'flipped you the bird', as it were (like you have done with your childish emoticon), would you smile back or offer them your seat? I think not.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
