Friends trying to get me into fishing rivers but I'm really taking to the LRF
Had the most fun at the rocks pools trying to catch the little blennys
Anyone confirm that second pic is a ballan wrasse? Lovely colours
Thanks to the recipes thread. Finally have a use for the anchovies I had at the back of the cupboard that isn't pizza.
They just dissolve during cooking and don't leave a strong fishy taste, great for my family who don't appreciate tinned fish 😅 as you see they are invisible.
Ingredients
300g of your favourite pasta
1 dozen cherry tomatoes, halved
Broccoli, sliced into florets
3 garlic cloves, very finely sliced
1 fresh chilli, finely sliced or 1 tsp chilli flakes
6 anchovy fillets (or to taste)
200 ml double cream
Olive oil
Parmesan, to serve (optional)
Salt & black pepper, to taste
Cook the pasta according to the packet instructions.
Prepare the broccoli by slicing into florets and boiling or steaming until tender.
Prepare the tomatoes by cutting the cherry tomatoes in half.
Heat a generous glug of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the garlic, chilli and anchovies. Cook until the garlic is golden and the anchovies have broken down into the oil.
Be careful not to burn the garlic or it will become bitter.
Add the cream: Remove the pan from the heat and stir in 200 ml double cream, mixing thoroughly until combined.
Combine everything: Add the cooked pasta, broccoli and cherry tomatoes to the sauce. Toss well, adding a splash of reserved pasta water if the sauce is too thick.
Serve with freshly grated Parmesan on top (optional but delicious).
Going camping in the woods with friends and we have a projector and portable screen to take. Obviously intent on scaring the shit out of ourselves.
What would you guys suggest
Existing crisps which season has been diluted over the years.
For me it's thai sweet chicken McCoys they used to be a little spicy and have a good kick.
I can deal with smaller bags or share bags that are the old weight but skimpflation on seasonings it the worst.
Looking a nice rum to drink neat. Hate anything remotely resembling whiskey I tried mount gay eclipse and it captured everything I hate about whiskey in a glass.
I'd normally drink basic white rums with mixer but go hiking and camping and looking to ditch the weight of mixers
Edit: after discussion and thought it appears to be the oaky barrel taste that I hate
Hello fellow swingers
​
Well, busted my dd frontline, bug mesh is completely gone at the foot end.
​
Any reccomendations for an upgrade in the price range is extremely helpful. I'm more of a side sleeper or diagonal if I do find myself on my back
​
Happy to shop preowned

I'm based in the UK
Have multiple tarps and an underquilt already

Now I am well aware I could get an external net but honestly I'm not interested, this will still do for colder months when less bugs are around.

As for how it happened....few beers too many and flipped the whole thing 180 with me inside 😂 This is the second time I've had the rotisserie chicken experience. (Neither the hammocks fault). However when I am not cooking myself easily on all sides I have the best time, my tents and bivvy are sidelined as long as I can get trees so don't mind investing!

User error should have guyed it properly, it served me well.
Someone suggested I share here. Fellow petty bastards.
Anyways a while back I had an unknown neighbour start putting their trash in my wheelie bin (garbage can)🦅
It started out as a extra bag here and there and eventually escalated to them hijacking the bin and it being at the other end of the alley.
I was tired pissed off after months of this now at this point the bin is highjacked in someones back yard I'm sitting with a newborn and a bunch of shit filled nappies I couldn't get rid of (no I didn't do what you are thinking but I sure thought about it).
I waited patiently, unable to use my bin until collection day. Collection is about 9am.
6am I recover my beloved wheelie bin they left out the night before
I removed every single bag of theirs and dumped them onto the sidewalk at the end of the alley where all the bins go for collection filled up mine with my own rubbish and went about my day.
Walking back home in the afternoon and to my delight the offenders bags have all been rebagged by the city in bright blue bags with the city councils logo and something along the lines of "litter investigation evidence" printed on them.
I assume the city found a letter or something and they got a fine or at least a warning for it because my bin never got touched again not even a coke can, fines here are £400 upto £2500 for fly tipping.
They could have forked out £25 for a new bin instead but they chose violence and I responded.
Mini chicken fillets (4), pakora (4), doner, bad boy doner, chicken tikka, chicken shawarma, steak, chips or fries, salad and kebab slaw, fried onions, peppers, naan, 8 dips
£22
Salad naan and dips came in a large pizza box on their own
