  1. there are some stunning things being made out of super exotic materials 

    id be keen to see what average not necessarily professional, gifted folks can make!

    some frames are far too good to actually shoot, what I make are rough a f**k by comparison but they work for me.

  2. Do any regular guys, I.e not catapult craftsmen make there own frames?

    I couldn’t find a style I really like so I drew out my own design and made it.

    best think I ever did 

    I’ve refined the type now and my latest was my first attempt at a clipped frame.

    photo shows before it was finished 

    anyone else made their own?

  3. Mines a Russel with a dash of whippet,

    nearly 2 and doing well, had lurchers and terriers in the past but I think those days are gone, or they are for me.

    a little non descript mongrel and catty in my pocket and I’m having more fun than I’ve had in years.

  5. How do

    not been active on here for a long time.

    I find myself without a dog for the first time in years.

    I’ve  had lurches and terriers when I was younger then moved on to gun dogs.

    ive given up shooting/beating but enjoy mooching and taking squirrels and pigeons with my catapult

    ill be looking for a pup to join me next year 

    I want a general mooching/bushing dog

    anyone got any suggestions?

    i don’t want a big galloping lurcher or an earth dog both would probably encourage me to get in bother.

    ideally I want a small to medium sized dog that’ll  retrieve catapulted stuff and maybe give a rabbit a run

    cheers Daveo

     

     

  6. Ive seen quite a few couples shagging in cars in out of the way places when lamping (a quick light up with the lamp usually cures it)

    We had a geezer walk past me and my mates stark bollock naked when we were fishing once and I've seen a woman laid on her back pleasuring herself in a meadow whilst reading a book, 

    they all sort of made sense

    1. No where else to go/affairs

    2. Pervert

    3. She just got carried away

    but this woman I've got no idea other than cold temps are supposed to have some health benefits? Or she had an invisible hot tub?

  7. Just before Christmas I treated myself to a new airgun, a HW100 ks. In .177

    I decided I'd take it out this morning for the first time and try for some squirrels on a local permission.

    i thought I was wrapped up enough but after 1  1/2hrs I was definitely feeling the cold, I'd accounted for two big fat squirrels and not seen anything for a while.

    I decided on the way home to drop in on a big house out in the sticks that is plagued by white doves that have gone feral after the doves owner passed away

    I was asked to reduce the numbers about 12 months ago by the elderly property owner as she often counts 20+ birds on her roof

    the mess they leave is unbelievable.

    so I called up thinking I could keep warm in the car and shoot from the motor. The doves were back in good numbers! It was approximately 9:30AM and 2 degrees out.

    The electric gates to the house were closed so I got out and then noticed the attractive blond neighbour of the couple I was going to visit.

    sitting in a garden chair wearing only her black bra and knickers...........

    i kid you not,  I did a double take and our eyes met she didn't bat an eyelid, didn't wave or acknowledge me at all she just sat there

    i got back in the car and quietly reversed back down the drive.

    what the hell is that about ?

  8. I bought a new tx in .22 a few years ago, it was doing around 8 1/2 ftlb so I stripped it to see what was what.

    I was amazed to find the grease from the factory was full of swarfe and machining debris.

    I contacted AA by email but they never commented.

    I stripped it and re-lubed it correctly and it was smooth but never acheived 10 ft/lb until I put a V-mach in it.

    Then it did 16 ft/lb buts thats another story. :icon_eek:
