Boars do?

Yes, I suppose they do. Cause crop damage that is. They are voracious eaters. I've only seen them mean however when you're between them and they're young. Which I don't call mean but noble.

Maybe you meant badgers...I don't know the first thing about badgers.

Looks like you did mean badgers. Sorry.

Sure thing dylandog, you can develop your own HHT with whatever you like. In trying to delelop a test that anyone anywhere can use, a standard filament is the best practice. Your boar could be different from my boar etc. but a given monofilament fiber is the same everywhere, that's all. And that's the reason that Howard likes it and I agree with him. It sounds like mparker has some issues with the world's badger population so I guess no guilt is in order! LOL

I believe the badgers used are Chinese badgers that are killed for food in chinese cuisine. They are vermin in China. See attachment

Oh yes...Bradford in SL, Cronulla and the Bronco's in the NRL.

Doesn't shaving in the Brisbane climate hurt like hell? I got a clout from a friendly old lady at the tourism booth for having a 'Pom's Nose' and I had full block on! 'Yer as burnt as the Sydney suburbs in January' little harsh I though but I did appreciate the warning! Flaming Gallah!

I think some terms here need to be added to the colloquialisms thread.

Justin

Here's some Yorkshire dialect to be going on with

Laik - play
Doylem - thick person
Doy - love eg Na'then doy = 'Hello Love'
Screamer - don't mix this with the Aussie screamer I may get you a towelling (a punch or two)!
Dawks - Hands
Cockstride - not far
Chelp - to talk

Yeah, Broncos did well this year, again. I don't often get burnt anymore - wearing a hat and sunblock is the key. "Slip, Slop, Slap - slip on a shirt, slop on sunscreen and slap on a hat!"

Is it me or has this thread turned into gibberish? The question is why, is it something about this particular thread or is this a general trend, sort of an entropy thing? Soldiering on, let's pray that it's just an Australian thing and that the Hungarians, Irish and Basques don't get motivated!

No it's not you. Sorry, I pulled this and
