Well Lately flushing out gammon hasn't been much fun on account they've all exploded in state utter embarrassment
so turned to highlighting naive complicity in the massive wealth transfer and otherwise destruction of the average Joe as a result of the plandemic and USA's other proxy war
Enjoy drowning worms in the sea but very much a fair weather fisherman, find it a good escape from work etc, also dabble with a bit of Archery, been out of it for about 6 months with a dodgy elbow, first time back on Saturday and feeling it in the back muscles now and that was only 60 scoring arrows plus 3 sighters.

Don't mind a bit of sailing to be fair.

Father in law is into archery, getting exciting showing me his arrows
Is that with a lawnmower engine strapped to your back? If I'd had a weapon with adequate range I would have got the fekker who flew over us at 6am last weekend at Land's End!!!!
Came round your way last April, after picking up Wolke from Scotland I’m certain you recognise this location:-) Passing Longships at daybreak Dropped into Newlyn after 26 hours sailing from Kilmore Quay ROI Must be two years since we met up at Marazion.
looks like a Rassy , and thats St Michaels mount motoring by looks it , when theres decent breeze
Yep , I’m running engine and reefed mainsail to clear the Lizard, wind over tide threw up a 3-4mtr swells. Some French boat came into Mounts bay in last months 60mph storm running under sail, they arrived under RNLI tow.

Ah fair enough , haven't been into this bay myself passed lizard on Fastnet race ( peaceful trip) and one time on way to Largs via Milford haven ( horrendous slog )
I liked Largs, (good bar on front by bus stop/ferry) , I came down from Ardrossan, which has a good marina but not much else. I too remember slogging for hours past Ailsa Craig, which itself looks like the curling stones that it births. @ Largs Leaving Arran April , plenty of snow still on the Goat Fell This oversized Curling stone creates its own wind shifts. This was how the French boat looked last month öfter they tried to run before the storm and ended on lee shore near Porthleven.
ok coming down channel to lands end , then instead of the usual south westerly it came northerly, bizarre, **** fight to Milford and thence tacking across the Irish Sea till we got to Douglas .
Then no wind all - motored all the way to Largs , I think we passed Ailsa Craig early in morning cant even remember

Not quite a lawnmower engine, much louder and far more annoying than that. If you feel they were flying too close to you then go here https://www.caa.co.uk/our-work/make-...-aviation-law/ I try to fly high enough and have a small enough engine that you probably wouldn't hear me, but there are bad apples in every activity and they should abide by Airlaw.

Looks like great fun where its allowed , but you say many do bend the law.
@Whitsand Bay near me Airlaw is not enforced on the rotten apple Paragliders Some whom have problems with Eddies over the coast cliff road here shown below and tend to drop into the gorse bushes on a regular basis,
one even dropped his chute over the coast road in front of me last year while attempting to land at Freathy behind the coast road on a hill crest.
Then again we also currently have Ukrainians dropping out of our Merlins at Tregantle, And unfortunately last year a Raleigh Navy trainee was dropped too deep into the Oggin & out of his depth,
fully kitted he went down like a stone and tragically could not be resuscitated. The difference being our guys are in training to protect us.
My father in law (a German) did get a reprimand from Flag / QHM when he took his drone over the Marina to film us entering harbour.
He was only flying at 150ft and with GPS Drone software that should prevent you flying into no fly zones which Torpoint is not.
However obviously for me ( and I told him this before and after ) the law is one thing but we are de-facto at war and we don't need Drones up anywhere near Naval bases.
Trying to land within 50 mtrs of the coast road ( adjacent the parking ) is in MHO only for the birds.

The rules are different for unpowered soaring flight, getting dragged in bushes is a rite of passage. That counts for landing on the road as well, anywhere is a landing field in an emergency.
That must be Millbrook middle distance and multihull centre , helped customer pick up/ get ready banshee 35 we did fastnet on from there late 90's
I wasn't aware we were at war !
Its as close as it gets,
Standing NATO Maritime Group (SNMG) 1 is sitting right on the Crimea doorstep, the Nato Frigates ( I have seen more than 10 different ones this year ) are taking turns bobbing around in front of Plymouth, in particular when the NATO munitions supply vessels Karel Dorman / HMS Albion / USN William McClean are about . Noticably we only have a couple our old second division vessels ( Typ 23 ) left here at Plymouth the six D class 45s are being re-supplied on Patrol ( my neighbour is on a RFA ) The amount of Helicopter trafficking over my house to and from the Tregantle Range and MOD Scraesdon is impressive, and while normally our village pub is visited by the Marines / Navy lads who do the trainings from HMS Raleigh , not a sign of them for months and all I know , drink a lot of beer !
I know a fair bit more but I expect there’s a lot I don’t or indeed need to know. Nevertheless when the Berdiansk ship attack was carried out some people were drinking in here celebrating afterwards .
This place is full of guys that don’t speak to you , all you see of them are blacked out faces peering out of the Merlins .
That confirms we are just lapdog to the US as regards NATO and its warmongering money earnings , even while the rest of Europe ( this is where Russia borders ) wants settlement
