just watched a programme about gannets/sea etc on bbc2. 8pm 9pm.
the latest brainwave theyre going to come out with next is to stop prawn boats discarding their by-catch,
small fish etc,, dont know what theyre supposed to do with it, bring it ashore, then pay special lorries to collect it perhaps,,
how theyre going to police it god knows???
probably have to take an observer with them and pay his wages,,,,
just when you think youve heard it all,
