  1. Yep.......I get the works near me. Mostly dropped off in my garden, woods and driveway. I am the first green belt out of Dundee, and live in Angus, which is a different council, so it takes days to collect because they don't come that close to Dundee very often. Sofas, cookers, garden waste, wardrobes, bikes.................all thrown out in the woods this year. I sold one of the cookers..it wasn't bad!! Someone even tried to burn a car out in my drive the other month!! Got woke up by the blue flashing lights... In fact I swear I got disturbed by a fly tipper last winter, wh

  9. I share your sentiments I have no suggestions... I am struggling myself!! Doesnt help not having any money either
  10. This caters for my needs, goes everywhere, shown here with ma lamping partner, kitted out for lamping. With fetching (and matching) pink and blue buckets!! Due to the serous nature of the terrain I shoot,it is currently running mud terrains, sump guard, diff guard and steel wheels. Oh and nice blue seat covers
  11. Not really Pete.The 12v 7Ah from this selection would be more suitable! http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=27088
  12. I normally buy it for £16 for 9KG sack from 'The Dog food shop' in Dundee. Its badged as their own brand and is OK!
  13. Are you sure he takes them with the guts in?? He didn't say leave the pluck in ???? Some terminology means different things to different people? That's not normal in my experience Round here its rifle head shot or ferreted, gutted and fridged if next day... But they normally pay a pound delivered. I'd check with him mate..
  14. Bit of wind helps, have had some good bags in light rain as well..
  15. For various reasons I have downloaded Google Chrome as my Internet browser software. As a side effect of this, I have discovered that it automatically spell checks all your posts for you, like like in Word? Very handy if you type faster than you think...or are a bit dyslexic.. I can recommend Chrome as a browser as well..much quicker, quite intuitive!! Give it a go!!
  16. Lovely pictures.. ATB Matty
  17. I didn't do the CLA, but I think its fair to say that all the fairs I have been to this year have been dissapointing. Perhaps the credit crunch is hitting our our sport more than we realise??
  18. You could try a Bladetec sharpener. They work quite well. You can pick them up of flea bay for about a tenner.
  19. Happy Birthday Si... Look at it this way...another year older.....another years more experience!!
  20. I normally lamp them at night, they re more relaxed and you tend to get higher numbers. Weather has a huge impact as well. Just remember safety is paramount, as is good communication between lamper/shooter etc.. We have a regime that works for us, which involves calling out your actions at every step of the way.. Telling your partner when you loading, when your unloading, when your shooting and when you need to pick up.
  21. Sorry to hear that Mart... RIP Bug Man
  22. Do you shoot reloads Remmy??? And if so, how many rounds do you reckon you put through your current barrel? Just out of interest!!
  23. Come dine with me.. Top Gear River Cottage Saturday Morning Kitchen
