I live in the north east and from the top floor of Sirocco towers can see the eston hills, but with the houses and heavy industries this has to be classed as Urban, I regularly see foxes walking the streets/raiding the bins outside the chippie, also Hedgehogs that i have to pick up and place them ont other side of the road in the direction that they were ambling (even after eons of evolution they still think they are invinsible), Magpies (once truly a country bird) are becoming very successfull in our built up areas (as well as becoming a predominant species in the wild) the lil Pipistr

Jeez, im the only one with a reply ?, ive been over to the island so many times, and viewed from so many different parts of the most beutifull of Gods isles, so many memories of so many great riders that i have seen, To many to list, and even more difficult to put in any listed order, watching from the kerbsides under leafy trees, and seeing up so close the gut wrenching throttle opening, frames flexing, kerb clipping, up so close you can see the wear marks on those big ole fat tires, and that thrill of knowing that a bit later the Axe Murderers (sorry sidecar boys) are gonna be let loose.

Oh My F***in God, is this what my dad fought for all those years ago, lads can i ask is that "stick on" facial hair ? cos you aint old enough to actually know about the repercusions of the words that you cant even mime properly, alas i have a question, why do painfully thin prepubescent youths walk around trying to talk like a black man ?

When i heard about it i thought "oh no not Robert" i live in england but have watched Joey and Robert many times, to now have lost both of them is a cruel blow, i can only hope that some of the grief to family and close freinds can be eased just a little buy the countless fans both at home and around the world. to have now lost two great talents is a cruel blow, but they will still be tearing it up between the curbs in our hearts and minds.

The only safe way of having it done would be an "in line" adapter that threads on in between the bottle and the breach, No ?

I am a time seved leather craftsman, I would never use any machinery as all mine is hand cut and hand stitched, but there is a fair old amount of kit there, id say the price was pretty good, that big ole industrial stitcher will fetch £600 plus on its own, i did notice that there is no big cutting bench for hand cutting leather with a round head knife, i suppose most modern leatherworkers use diposable craft knives lol.

Nasseem was vey good, but not one of the greats, his promoters were very clever he never ever fought anyone that could be a serious threat, a shame as Nasseem could have been a legend, Tyson (not as he was in his last round of fights) but as he was in his prime was an animal, he deserved the belts he got during that era, for me Ali turned out to be the legend his fast stinging punches were so deceptive, a thinking boxer, and i still dont know how he laid back on the ropes and soaked up all those rounds of body punches to wear an opponent out, ive never seen anyone able to do that then when his

I originally posted thuis in the rimfire and shotgun guys room, it got views but alas no replies (mebe cos i fessed up to being an air rifle hunter ?, who knows) as a time served saddler I will be making some shotgun shell cases/pouches and as i have no knowledge of shotgun shell sizes i though that the original box that they are bought in would make a good former, so, can anyone give me a somwhere accurate measurement of a shotgun shell box, and also are there many diff types, i am looking for a measurement that the original box would just drop into as a leather case, and also as a belt pouch
