They look alright! I read that the AX7 was classed as a summer trye.Haven't made my mind up yet but getting them through my sons company and he's away at the moment.
Know there not the ones you asked about but I’ve had them on my mk8 for just over 5 months, I’m more than happy with them.. I do a lot of Rd miles but a lot in the forestry and round the fields and crappy back lanes/tracks no problem, never got stuck yet but I don’t go tryin to get it stuck.

I don't actually live in a bog. We have roads and everything. Some are just less than motorway quality.
What did you go with walshie?!
I wanted something with a bit more bite than the dulers but not over top for the Rd’s
went for these avons at £106 a pop, not bad at all

.i was due to go in and have a large lump of arthritis removed from my spine around my neck almost 3 years ago but was cancelled when covid came along a week before I went in, it’s obviously grown on a bit as the numbness is moving down my arm both shoulders also pretty worn out from 40 + years on the trowel but as I said before a lot of pain is a frame of mind and can be over come with exercise and grit
Pain wasn’t the problem, that was after surgery!
was lack of movement… was bad for last 15 year but it had got to point I couldn’t lift my right arm above me chest or get the back of my hand round my back, was locked solid and something would have broke if forced..
that’s why I’ve been doing footings for last ten year.. bout 6 months on from the op now, and it’s as good as it was when I was younger.
Just me knees need fixin now
joys of being a subby

Copper is accurate as you like but unless your in backstop heaven or the woods it’s shite… no good to me, it passes straight through stuff and carries on!
you know the feeling when a .22 wizzes into the distance?
brace yourself cos a 6.5 is just ridiculous
the tits who say less meat damage are in a different world, who wants runners I want them on ground where I shot them

My old man’s a waller still at it full time at 79
when I was younger I did a couple of tests through this lot, it was the sort of acceptable standard 30year ago and you could get on there trades list… there were other groups formed round where I live as a lot of the blokes didn’t agree with some stuff.. won’t go into it

Much the same, but I just refuse to give in pain is a frame of mind, I work for a builder so do a variety of things which helps, don’t think I’d want to be banging on a 100 meters a day everyday now
Mine was fcuked from laying bricks and plastering… had mine dremmeld last year, felt like I’d been hit with a sledge hammer for a few weeks but it’s tip top now

Something I’ve never tried but I’d expect I’d be top notch tbh
It’s an art form… like plastering, you can either do it more or less straight off the bat or you’ll always be
can take ticks off a sheep’s back at 100yard with a rifle but it’s a bit noisy for ransoms out of the van window

Well it’s back to work, but never one to miss an opportunity was driving round the factory I’m working on at the moment and saw a little flicker between a load of lorry trailers, 25metres measured
I take my hat off to anybody who is good with a catty, I’m shite
I was the village champion at smashing windows and phone box’s with one as a kid..
but if I had to hunt with one I’d be better off cuttin the elastic up and making a pasta dish.

I guess with the current housing situation at the moment its pushing people into it maybe. My daughter wanted to move house a rental and every property there was huge competition it was like a lottery. She did find some where in the end. I can't imagine the logistics of it though going to work 8 hours a day and keeping clean plus pets would be nigh on impossible unless your loaded and just choose to do it
It’s a rough ride for the younger workers, my eldest and her bloke both work neither make good money and struggle like f.. I pinged her a top up last night so she could buy pack up grub
unless your loaded or came here in a dingy your f’d with rental prices
I keep telling them to take off and travel.

Same day that harrier was photographed there was a peregrine over head last light diving into a flock of starlings .We thought it was a hobby at first but long distance pic showed it was a peregrine .
We had a pair breeding in the local town that were encouraged as they kept the feral pigeons down .Out today saw an osprey way up on its journey to Africa .We get quite a lot of bop here .My fav at moment is the red kite tbh .Love the noise they make .I want one
Saw my first red kite up here last year while out decoying
Go 40mile south of here and there plenty full but there’s a fair few shoots in that 40mile.
seen a sea eagle a few times too, first time was waitin on a fox, saw it through thermal and thought wtf.. so looked through rifle scope and couldn’t believe it, there massive!It roosted bout 15 mile inland in a big off grid wood

Gigs this year
in General Talk
Posted
I’m pretty lucky, live more or less next to an open air theatre that gets some good bands.. the groups are prob mortified they have to play here but it’s in the contracts if they want the big gigs in the city’s they have to come here
last gig I went to there was Duran Duran, was mint… just had look at what’s on this year and this will do me nicely, on the weekend of me 50th too
