    I'm not sure if I've painted a misleading picture to you Craigyboy. The Polytunnels I speak of aren't the completely enclosed hot gardening types. They're for sheep, who do better in a cooler environment with good air circulation. From what I have seen online they have a type of plastic that doesn't heat up the inside, more lets light through and keeps the rain off the ewes backs. From the ground to a height of roughly one meter there is a mesh which stops rain but allows air through. So it's not a "greenhouse" type environment. As for smells, I've mucked out a sheep shed that's had two to

    Hi Lee, thanks for that. I wouldn't intend for them to be kept in the Polytunnel 24/7. They'd be out during the day. I would be after a tasty bird that could turn a profit (hmmm that sounds familiar lol) and not more of the same supermarket types.

    I was looking online at polytunnels for housing sheep the last day, one person or company mentioned that turkeys for the Christmas market could be raised in them - then the sheep would usually end up in them at some point after Christmas depending on when lambing was. Now I thought that was a good idea from the point of view of taking the time and expense to buy and have the tunnel erected. But I know SFA about turkeys! More importantly I know SFA about the possibility of profit or loss in such an enterprise. So I'd appreciate any input from people who've raised turkeys for the Christmas m

    Personally? No, I'm not worried and am happy to have my meagre savings in the bank. I only ask as we had an interesting conversation trying to figure it out

    Another idea may be some motor oils, spark plus, and other such service related motor wear and tear items.

    Some foods may not be a bad idea. I wasn't so much thinking complete society collapse mind, but currency collapse which is less serious than total chaos in society so rather than gangs roaming the streets etc, think high inflation, high unemployment, increasing poverty, current debts held in old more valuable currency whilst deposits converted to much less valuable new currency. Dressed stone may be hard to shift if that boom were not to come to pass?

    Which reminds me, drugs did come up and some impressive figures were even mentioned Don't think I'd fancy the free B&B if caught mind

    I had a big post written out, then highlighted it to copy into another forum and accidentally pasted something else in it's place and couldn't Undo This comes from several threads I've been reading on several forums, and a chat I had with a friend today. One thing I would like to be left out of this is the politics of the Euro, the EU, the UK, the ROI and any other country, start another thread for them please The scenario is this. You have X amount of a currency which is in danger of collapse, let's say a few thousand. You want to convert that paper money into something tangible

    So, am thinking of growing a few spuds this year. But I'm caught wondering what's the most productive method of doing so? I did see mention of those potato boxes, meant to grow 100lbs of spuds in 4 foot square, but I have found only claims and SFA evidence of success!

    My mate only uses SxS shotgun this past 18 years. I've used my semi auto a few times. Best tip, pick a dark, windy night. Calm, bright/frosty night is a waste of time. We have 40 yards as a general guideline and use 36gm BB's. Fox should be side on to you when you shoot (easier to get pellets into the vitals), or looking at you. Don't shoot at him when he's going away from you. BE QUIET! Get rid of loose change, keys, rustling clothes, squeaky boots, rattling zips etc. Walk quietly, and have patience. If you spot your fox and are sneaking towards him, stop if he looks at yo

    Oh yes. Less competition!

    What? Where have you been hiding? Greece fiddled their books for years and lied to anyone who'd listen about it. Matter of public verifiable record.

    Hopefully those are in order, something weird happened with the apostrophes, put some or other code in it, can't be arsed fixing it

    Yeah those Larsen mates look like they'd work, nice big opening so as not to threaten the bird so much.

    I should still have them on my external hard drive. But, it'll be tomorrow evening or Saturday evening before I get to do it.

    No probs hope it helps, Edi Graff yeah, he's on another couple of sites as ejg. Does he repair wood?

    Make sure it fits your gun before you order anything. Is the SS Evolution suitable for the CZ 527, just that I don't see it on either of the CZ pages, just 452's? Maybe they fit each other, I don't know. I figured Edi wouldn't be too easy on the pocket. Handled one of his stocks in Fergal Whites before, real light and I don't think even you would break it lol. If all else fails give the last fella I linked to a ring, see what he charges for repairs?
  19. JohnGalway
    If you're still thinking of getting it repaired - I don't know if Enda does repairs or not - but this guy below does: http://www.gunstocks.ie/

    Might be an idea to sit down and take that stroke medicine before clicking either link below. Both are Irish based stock makers: http://www.pse-composites.com/product-information.html http://www.gunstocksireland.com/

    Yep, got it sorted

    It won't make firearms easier or harder to license, nor will it relax any current law or make any new laws. This is the current situation below: "Firearms law in Ireland is currently spread across 19 Acts, 2 EU directives and well over 60 Statutory Instruments, before case law and the Garda Commissioner's guidelines are taken into account...... Since 2006 - since which time three acts, approximately twenty statutory instruments and an EU directive have been added" Plainly said, that's a shit load of documents which makes finding out relevant and proper information regarding firearm

    Fair enough, 20foot fall is a fair enough drop. Couple of weeks ago a fella dropped a brand new Beretta shotgun 1 (that's one) foot, stock snapped almost in the same place. It could have been worse, could have damaged or broken scope etc.

    I can't log in over there anymore, would someone mind contacting the Admin there and ask them to look into it. The site seems to accept my log in name (same as here) and password, logs me in, then logs me right out again lol.

    In all fairness, that post is fairly needless, it has nothing to do with this thread. You can't tar all people with the same brush, generalizations never work out.
