  2. Ians right, I had a astra diesel estate before the laguna, 55mpg and cheap but not as comfy as the laguna and i've driven the others but prefered mine. Astra lacked towing power which I found out with a caravan on the back near Buxton when we started going backwards on a hill A friend has a subaru forrester, wow, like a rocket....... P.S Does anyone know what a LWB shogun gets per gallon?
  3. On a public footpath also mate,anywhere used by the public the dog has to be under reasonable control,please dont make me check in my dog law handbook!!!(its really boring)and saying that with the new clean neigbherhoods act coming into force the fouling laws may change also,its a bit behind at the mo here in wales so not sure how it would stand!!! Forgot about the new act Gary :oops: The old system meant that town and parish councils request a dogs on lead byelaw and put this forward to the district council. Dogs had to be on a lead walking adjacent to a public highway but not foot

    what gun

    Been using my mates lately and I love it, the only thing I didn't like is trying to load a pellet ijn the single shot with freezing hands....pain in the backside, although he fitted a magazine and that solved the problem

  6. Yes on a highway but not a public footpath
  7. Interesting thread I understand the need for control of certain species in certain areas but was slightly p*ssed off this week when I found a barn owl that had been killed with a shotgun and left on display on a fence in a popular public walking spot......why?
  8. Saw a lot of signs in Western Australia, would hate for a dog to come across it. Mitch are the baits supposed to be for foxes? What other species do they have an impact on?
  9. Just had a look at the link bullet A 35 yr old man designed that..... :11: Perhaps a quick spell check was in order :whistle:
  10. A dumbass question guys but do you take a dog with you?
  11. Saw 1080 baits and signs in Oz, must be a horrible way to go, also indiscriminate killing
  12. With regards fouling Moll, your dog can foul woodland, agricultural land, pavements with a speed limit above 40mph and your neighbours garden 'cos its private property :whistle: I know about the fouling of land act and dog byelaws, I used to be a dog warden..........
  13. Hello mate, We call them coypu and unless someone can correct me there haven't been coypu around since the late 's, early 90's, definately not in numbers
  14. You only have to have the dogs on a lead if there is a local byelaw regarding that stretch of public footpath..........
  15. I've got the 2.0 laguna estate, brilliant car, had mine 4 years and done over 130,000 miles, reliable and comfortable with lots of extras. The 2.0 petrol does about 36 mpg, not bad for a petrol engine

  17. Well Moll, I agree, I've met a few people off the site at shows and talks and also had a good chinwag via chat and pm's Some genuine folk on here
  18. Just wondering if anybody had owned a English Bull terrier lurcher? Are there any decent EBT's left or are they now just show dogs? Just wondering as EBT mixes are still used in Australia for hogs!!!
  19. Forgot to add i'd like to see a boar roaming our countryside
  20. Very interesting link I'd like to see some of the native species return, beaver, lynx, wolves and boar, although they are doing ok in certain areas. We have an introduced crayfish species in a local river and they have wiped out the native species.
  21. Made in China can be misleading, I ordered Chilli shreaded beef , egg fried rice and chow mein only to find they were cooked in my local takeaway I felt so silly :whistle:
  22. Sky + didn't record, did anyone watch it
