  1. I shoot rifles too, and Dave you are totally right in what you say. I'd say I'm now 50/50 with using rifle and dogs. I enjoy both, be it plinking rabbits to trapping, lamping rabbits with dogs. I have friends who do not have dogs but shoot and vice versa, I also have friends who just fly hawks. Like Dave has said, not everyone gets granted a FAC, there are important aspects to learn whilst owning a FAC and a lot of responsibility on your shoulders. I load my own too, and their is some skill required to use them. Remember, Squeeze do not snatch boys!
  2. That happened at last years Badminton Trials, it was a german pointer, the horse and rider got first place!
  3. I do it all the time for my fire places, espeacially in the summer when hedges are trimmed. I'll go with a ruck sack and fill up for kindling. If your on common land then by right take the lot. But common land is hard to find these days, or lets say hard to detect wheather it is or not. You'll find that Rangers will leave piles of wood cut at the side of the road on purpose (they can't be arsed to drive back to the yard and lug them off) and mysteriously the logs disappear in the night. Just follow the four f's. You can leagaly pick Fungi, Fruit, Folige and Flowers. Just change one t

    I'm going to cage you Foxy! Your a better singer than my canary.... Nothing wrong back then, and yes thank you he was. They say you only get one very decent dog, he was it! However I'm not faulting my 2 here at all. Now go and do your ironing or sowing or even washing up before your other half gets in...

    Just clicked the last page button in the Lurchers section. Now they were the days! What decent posts, decent photos, cracking write ups, and some good members who are no longer on here, or they are, but with different user names. What a shambles we're in!
  7. The murder of Jamie Bulger, the abduction of baby Abbie Humphries, the brutal slaying of Rachel Nickell, all shocking and very sad. It's the victims who cannot escape this fear that the responsible people have left behind is who I feel for. The responsible do not care, they have no remorse, and it's their trace of mind that is most shocking! Take the Bulger case, 2 young boys bunked off school to go shoplifting. They then noticed Bulger, and their intentions were to get him lost, and that he would get run over. To the railway track they go. 22 injurys later to his head, 20 to the bod
  8. I have one that needs a little edit too....

  9. This is getting silly now, honestly! I'd say 5% is true and 95% utter rubbish. I really do not know how they can get the facts WRONG . PC PARRY, you are an embarrassment, but then I can see why your a Beat Manager......
  10. Yer its a good portrayal, and also shows how the skinhead movement was hi-jacked by a minority of racist thugs. Very true. The root of ska music is from black soul music, mods all got on with each other wheather you were black, white, brown, or pink. The series looks as good as the first. It may well give the wrong impression to some, but a true mod will know that isn't the case Enjoy the series.
  11. Fair enough, but it would be nice if you explained yourself in your post. Who's mentioned "gypsy running dog person" Good luck with your request, It wont happen me tinks....
  12. We ain't growing up, were growing sideways!

  13. Always on Foxy, even at bedtime and story time. They can reduce an injury. Not noticed my dogs run/strike differently with them on. Yes control is the key really. Well said Malt!
  14. A little silly placing a deposit on the rifle without the grant issued and in hand. There are loads of reasons why one is refused, sometimes it can be a minor problem to us but major to a police force. Bans can vary for each individual and it's case.
  15. You should do well with them. Most light sussex hens around today are more frame and feather slim eggy birds instead of a good English meaty bird.
  16. OK.....Maybe a bigger lobworm then. I'll get me coat. lol, the lobworm isnt felt on the lift bite method, its the swan shot which is lay on the bottom, with a good tail leading to your lob, so thier is plenty of float, showing, so that the lob doesnt sink it..... Thats a fine example of a healthy perch. Well done.
  17. or it could of been the start of a tench bite....
  18. What a lovely misty morning.

  19. It's not war, just the end of love.

      I'm afraid so! Not good.....

  20. These were the days! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uot5eTjbrHk Popping those pills hardcore............
  21. It's common sense really. Pups should be left alone to be pups. They will distinguish what is what in their own time. Its natural instinct, if you like,all we do is tame them down so they show respect, and what's right from wrong. You don't need to read or write a 1000 books and become the next Brian Plummer to work it out. Rock on Danman
  22. No worries, hope you enjoyed yourself and took many photos. Anytime.

  23. I wouldn't mention distance to the FLO, they will see this as a un professional approach, and a danger. Maybe say the rabbits need shooting as there is no other way of controlling them on the said land, and that the rabbits are very shy, so a rifle would be best suited to control the numbers. I'd go for a Rapid 7, I have one on ticket at stupid ft-lbs near enough a rimfire. Very good rifles, very silent (I use a Logun silencer), and very accurate, but need to bring the tank with me though and a spare buddy bottle. Go for a rimmy, less hassle.
  24. How about 350euros for 4 months. How about 60 million!
