I was arrested years back for helping to disrupt a Fox hunt being run by the Cheshire hunt. It was worth every minute of the couple of hours i spent in the nick for it . And guess what i would do it again given half the chance if it was a fox hunt.

I don't have a problem with Drag hunts.

I have a BIG problem with a bunch of numptys chasing a fox with a pack of dogs so they can watch it get ripped to shreds for there entertainment and FUN.

Barbarians the lot of them.

Its funny how every time people complain about global warming, its snows later in the year. Maybe that's where the polar ice cap is going. In a couple of years it will be snowing in July and August.

I remember scraping ice off my car in mid-May a few years ago (about 4 give or take)

I find it funny how at school they teach us that the planet was once tropical with Dinosaurs then a lot of the planet was covered in ice and glaciers moved creating valleys and a lot of the scenic places we go now. Do not see any human interference in those cases. Now temps are rising slightly and ice is melting and its our fault like the planet or the sun or natural events can not be to blame.

Point taken, but those dinosaurs loved to drive 4x4s!!

Yea, i mean it's not the fact we're just exiting the last ice age that is making temps rise is it

According to this, there's more to come later (about 3" in total in the south) http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7332986.stm
