  1. A techno-wizard like you and that's the best you have "try turning it off and on again"! PMSL Joe, if that fails, try hitting it with a big hammer.
  2. On a shotgun licence?......... No, needs to have minimum barrel length of 24" and minimum overall length of 40" too I believe. Although that overall length limit might just be for pumps and semis....
  3. You tried their hunting trousers tomo? I've got three pairs, they're a tough cotton jean style trouser. 20 quid I think. I really rate them. No mate,,, I don't like thik canvarse type trousers ,,, I like trousers with elastic waists and draw strings,,,lol... I could kick myself today though,, I tried a pair of trousers on in there,, they were winter mountain trousers ,, made out of that soft shell material,, and Lycra,, yeh I know me in Lycra,,lol,, but they were so comfy,, with braces attached,, 40 quid I should have bought them ,,but I'm such a tight fecker,,, so tomorrow I will be cur

  5. Do many people take you up on these offers from here, shroom?
  6. He looked shell shocked! Just stood there on fire! f*****g idiot!
  7. Tbh, I'm not sure who KC is but I'm quite frankly honoured to have scored second on the hit list! Hopefully, with a bit of effort and persistence, I'll be able to get to #1 before you inevitably leave us.
  8. Would you consider me for next season please?? I how far down the A1 are you Regards Andrew Just past Newark mate, yeah no probs. Like I said, not sure it's what you're after exactly, the standard of dog work on our shoot leaves something to be desired! LOL. But the crack is good and you can work your dogs so up to you mate. If you're interested, PM me. Ben.
  9. Does this mean I'm gonna have to build my own Ghost Buster's proton pack energy weapon? "I ain't afraid of no ghost!"
  10. Bite the bullet and shell out for Chammies or Aigle. Save ya self quid and don't bother with neo ones, waste of money imo. Nice pair of wool socks you're away!
  11. I know some cracking game shots that are the same. Rabbits are the nemesis of many experienced guns! If i couldn't shoot rabbits, I'd shoot very little, lol.
  12. That 18 month bitch you have will make a handy dog. I was telling my mate about it, cracking little thing, bit of time she'll come good. I'll let you know if I hear of anything decent.
  13. I can't dissagree with that WC, but people like what they like. Terriers are versatile little things and if that's what you get on with why not. I'd say it's more important that people are aware of what it is they are getting than necessarily the suitability of that dog for that job. Regardless of the type someone chooses for the job they have I'd say ignorance is a bigger issue. You can buy a spaniel for beating but if you haven't a clue about the breed it'll cause hell for you, you can buy a digging dog for beating and with a thorough understanding of the animal you can end up with something
  14. Like I said mate, I'd never seen so many woodcock as on your patch! Seriously, last season up here 3 were shot in total between 10 driven days and 3 walk up days! And that is about the best tally I have seen in 8 years of shooting! This year 2 have been flushed and 1 shot between 9 driven days and 4 walk up days. LOL Don't be a twat, first time I'd seen a woodcock dropped with a 410! ......................................... b*****d!
  15. Have you no shot one at all before than mate? No mate, when I was younger I had shots at a couple. Had a couple at one on Saturday. But tbh just never really had many opportunities. I really don't do that much game or fowl shooting, maybe 3-4 serious walk up days a year. I'll get one one day.... LOL
  16. Bit late now but I'd of looked for a bit of beating mate. f***ing hell, thinking about it you could have done a bit for us this season if you didn't mind travelling down the A1! We have been after somebody else with a spaniel or two. Not sure it would have been exactly what you were looking for but would have been work at least. Drinking in the right pubs opens a lot of doors. And the right pubs often allow dogs in............ well behaved and bussiness like dogs and the attention will soon find you without having to look for it.
  17. As long as you're happy, who cares. So what if someone takes a digging dog and ends up shooting over it or takes a gundog and ends up ratting with it. Be honest with yourself and enjoy your days in the field, they're too few to care about such trivial things imo.
  18. It would be the end of the monarchy if the serving monarch acted with autocracy in 21stC Britain. It's that simple. We live in a democracy with a constitutional monarch.
  19. It's not rocket science, they simply make their money the same way as every private landlord and landowner does when they rent their property out.. £200 mill clear profit..... Do they just pluck these figures out the sky? You get the concept of numerical rounding right?
  20. You hate the concept of a monarch but you want the monarch to be autocratic? LOL LOL.
  21. We live in a democracy, allegedly. If our monarch, who is not elected by the people, was to start behaving in an autocratic manor it would rapidly be the end of the monarchy full stop.
  22. You want me to break down the entire financial structure of the crown estate? I'll pass, you win. Up the republic!
