Ferris has taken/stolen it out of its field before, and the Gardai found it in Ferris's shed....

Could he not have just disabled it permanently?

Have anyone heard of or done business with a company called ProDig?
They make a root chopping bucket to fit a tractor loader and a mate of mine was just trying to find out the cost etc for buying one for the UK & they haven't return his call

Yip, was looking through it! But they are legit etc? He was just a bit confused when they didn't answer or get back to him on it. Of course, they could just be busy!

They're definitely legit, they have a big export market and very good quality stuff.


They're well outside my price range but anyone I have talked to about them seem to be happy with the stuff they bought.

It’s as much about eliminating other food sources and placing the trap on a good busy run.

Chocolate or Nutella are both good, latter has better smell.

I've the sweeping brush for the front loader from them.

Tell your friend to go onto their website and look up his nearest dealer.
It's usually how all these places operate.

Had a mouse in the kitchen here last week, google told me peanut butter, bought 2 traps and baited with a little lick of peanut butter, 4 nights, 6 mice, problem solved.

Peanut butter did the trick for me anyway but as said above positioning is key

Thanks everyone, will go with a couple of chocolate and a couple of peanut butter

Need to find out how the little fecker got in, I think it’s through the gas pipe

Yeah it is. The bar at the bottom is not supported right. Hard to fathom considering the amount of steel that's in them

A good machine, but you need space at the headfeed to work it. Works best if you can back in at 90 degrees to the barrier

Had to take out what I would consider a fairly large loan when I took over the home place, at the time the bank wanted me to take it over a longer term but I insisted on 5 years as I wanted it finished before I left the army. Twas 1 lump sum every December, twas fairly crippling to get it done, I'd spend 6 months recovering from it and the next 6 months saving for it. Cleared it off this morning. Im free YeeeeeeePeeeeee.

Shocking to see a hard working and honest man from granard who deals in quality used van parts and second hand diggers getting shot yesterday evening. Think someone needs a medal.

What was the story there at all ??
I’ve watched the video a few times (not easy with the mouth on yer wan).
In the beginning it looks like the traveller is holding something out of shot in his right hand, or pushing something down leaning over. He’s only using his left hand and arm to try and get access to the van.
The guard must have felt under threat from something off screen to shoot yer man like that.

Lady Haywire

We're clearly only getting part of the story there. It's not like every Garda is going about armed! I'd have a lot more faith in his reasoning behind shooting than in the wan screeching like a tomcat about her poor Oisin.

Nekarsulm

Who had the Guard by the tie?
The woman with the phone or the guy trying to get at the driver of the van?
Looks like he was trying to shut the van door with one hand, and holding his SIG with the other, then he was being pulled by the tie and pulled the trigger in error.
I thought the Gardai used "clip on " ties for the very reason that they couldn't be held/choked as the tie would just pull off?

As I understand a fencing firm from Cork broke down in granard, was offered help by local garage, but when they went to collect transit were given bill in the 000. Corkonian went to guards. Garda Tom gets transit and is attacked by **** with slash hook which he disarms, video was apparently edited to take out dog that attacked guard who fired shot at and hit **** at same time.

The gentleman goes "Watch out, watch out, watch out"
Then..
You can hear the guard say "Get it to let go of me" as his tie is being pulled and then .... bang.

The gentleman has only one arm free to pat the driver in the pickup on the head so there's obviously a dog on a leash there.

Listened to it there, your one sounds like a wailing banshee. Wouldn't do to have the volume up too much

It’s only a pity he didn’t use 3 bullets and eliminate the problem fully

I’m surprised a dog can’t be heard though. It does seem the guy is controlling a dog but god it’s a quiet dog, with all that excitement you’d expect a dog to be yelping or yelp when shot.

Must be the traveller pulling the tie, can’t see a dog pulling a tie like that.

It's a very quiet dog now. Stealth dogs are often the most dangerous.

i would prefer if David had given that speech in Egypt last week at the Biodiversity Loss conference where the real drivers of extinction were discussed by world governments - and those drivers are still the likes of direct habitat loss, the illegal trade in endangered species, marine plastic pollution etc.
