  1. Far better eating than rabbits in my view, provided you can get past the tree rats bit?? By the way the Canadians love'em Its much better than rabbit, shame theres not much meat on one, you need 5-6 for a good meal They went to feed my keeper mate's ferrets. Tried squidders a long time ago myself but what a faff! I've never skinned anything so tough and the meat was mostly sinue. If I'm honest though, I'm a crap cook! Cheers.
  2. Six this morning! First chance I've had for a long time to have a go at them. Tagged along with a keeper friend who said they'd got problems with them in one wood. Got all six within the first 15 mins, then two more hours and one missed rabbit later, it was time to go. Cheers.
  3. Hi, mate. If you can find one in your price range, you can't do much better than the HW90. Although the 97's a top class springer too, it's just a shame they never fitted a gas spring to it like the 90. Cheers.
  4. Wanna be? Has Mr Kipling put you up for this? I love a nice egg custard! Cheers.
  5. Where I live, they do all the time!!
  6. Who the hell did the research on the last one?? Picture the scene, "Excuse me, Mr Mrs Ms random animal, Did you enjoy your last shag?". How did they come up with that??
  7. Just keep it to yourself. It's nothing to do with being ashamed about what we do, it's about undserstanding that there are lot's of ignorant folks out there who'll judge us without knowing. I too got loads of grief at school, and many times since. At least being my own boss, it's never caused problems at work! What others don't know, they can't hold against you. Whatever it may be... Good luck and don't let it get you down. Everything happens for a reason, I believe. Cheers.
  8. do you know about pc's, its th* k*ys mat* Sorry, mate. The only things I know about PC's is that we rely on them too much and that technology will be the death of us all, or they are stupid w*****s that stop folks calling a blackboard a blackboard etc.
  9. Go on, Jack. Give us a clue, mate?
  10. Who's 'you's'? I don't! Like I said, don't blame the rest of us for the f**k-ups made by our past and presant stupid leaders. And no, I didn't vote for them, before you ask. The only leason that can be learned from history, is that folks don't learn from history! Do not judge us as a nation based on the cock-ups from the past due to the actions of the tossers in power. i think if you want to sum up the thoughts of the celtic nations with regards to english past it would be, FORGIVEN BUT NOT FORGOTTEN Cheers. I can understand that. I'm half Irish so I can see both sides. Thank
  11. Who's 'you's'? I don't! Like I said, don't blame the rest of us for the f**k-ups made by our past and presant stupid leaders. And no, I didn't vote for them, before you ask.

  12. You're dead right, Scent. My family in Cork are seeing the same thing happen as has been going on here for many years. Our f*****g stupid leaders have let it go on and have done f**k-all to stop it. It stinks! Cheers.
  13. My dad (who's Irish) used to say 'there will never be peace on earth, not while there's two men left standing'. It's a bloody crying shame, but I think he may be right. Very sad... Cheers.
  14. Or it didn't go in! That's why I swapped.
  15. You may be right, but don't blame the rest of us for the stupid actions of our so called leaders. My family's from Ireland so I understand better than most Brits. Stupid folks do stupid things, let's leave the past where it should stay. In the past. We make the future. Yes? Cheers.
  16. And England and Wales...... The pubs and clubs were rife with talk of civil war in 84.....I was riddled with hatred for that lady when I was younger. I couldn't have told you why though to be honest. I just mimicked what the older lads around me where blaming her for. Shutting Shildon shops, miners strike, Falklands war etc....don't think she singled you "Celts" out for special punishment....she was held in a certain esteem by many English people too. And just when her memory was beginning to fade, we go and elect Blair....At least Maggie had bigger balls then he did. Yep. As
  17. Fellas? Be nice, please, before this gets pulled. Cheers.
  18. Mine's from Spain a long time back. Then went to Ireland when the Spanish Armada got it's arse kicked and some sailors got lost and landed on the west coast. Then my dads folks came to the UK and here I am. Oh joy...... Cheers.
  19. We'd best get ready to embrace the red and the blue folks then....
  20. The main problem with .177 is most of the pellets are too light. They may fly very fast but they also slow down fast, they have a crap ballistic performance. I think that's why folks go on about the better 'shock' value of .22. I started shooting with .22 in my early teens and very quickly found that much past 25-30 yards was pointless. Targets hit. Targets buggered off..... I changed to .177 about ten years ago and with the right pellet (For my gun, Baracudas, Bisley Mags. Same thing...) what I hit tended to stay hit. That said, I changed to .20 a while back and I'm well pleased
  21. A little pellet tree will grow in your timmy-tum-tum, Aaron......
  22. The point is it's all about the right tool for the job. No one with a brain in their head is going to argue that an air gun's a more effective tool for killing things than a fire-arm. We live in a small country and as has been said, paths, roads, houses, whatever make a differance as to what we can use. A good air gun, used with respect and consideration can be a very effective tool. Let's not forget that guns are only tools. It's not just 'each to their own', it's about what is doable and what's not. Cheers.
  23. You really are bang right there, Maltenby. The wan***s that run the show here do seem to be trying to make national pride a crime. The test subjects are running the experiment, and that can't be good..... Cheers.
  24. Oh dear. I hope this isn't going to become a pissing contest!
