  1. http://www.letsrecycle.com/prices this will give you an idea as what prices most things are fetching now, but bear in mind that these are bulk prices
  2. work on the spanners, when i had my own workshop i had a few who were slow paying, but they allways came back to me for work, some got upset when they came to collect their car and found it scattered around the workshop floor in bits but they soon found the cash to settle up in full, and when they came back for more work they paid in full on collection, you`ll usually find its the tw*ts with the cash who stall at every opportunity
  3. http://www.britishmilitarysurplus.co.uk/index.html delivery charge can be steep so build up as big an order as you can, even if it means roping a few mates into ordering gear as well, the last time i bought from them i got a load of arctic socks and most of them where new
  4. they get charged so much for the pitches that they can`t give too much discount and still make something out of it, that said its a bloody good day out
  5. BASA is a scam run by the mags that promote it, looks good on paper but when anything happens you`ll find theres nobody to contact who actually knows whats going on, and personally i would join either basc or the ca, take your own choice from them, me i`m with the ca
  6. greater spotted vegetarian muncher, do us more good than a bloody raccoon
  7. my first post on this subject may have come across as a piss take but i`ve been in this situation, hens egg between the cheeks, very often this is caused by an ingrowing hair (sounds daft but if you`ve had one you`ll know) think its called a pilonidal sinus (or pronidal) if they keep reccuring you can get your doc to give you antibiotics everytime it flares up or go for the op and get the fu£$er chopped out and be done with it, word of warning on that is the op is a b*****d but if it gets rid of the twa*t its worth it, just be prepared to show your arse to every nurse in your local hospital wh
  8. bottle of whisky and a stanley knife
  9. for me, its the weekend that everyone gets told to sod off, i`m busy, hav`nt missed it for the last 3 years
  10. at least you know he`s not one of the scamming w**nk*r brothers posting an ad at that price
  11. best use for a squirrel tail got two chilly plants inside the house and the yield of fruit had been crap so have made a small brush with a few tail bristles and a twig and brush the flowers when they open,, RESULT, think it may be time to keep a bog roll in the fridge, these seem to be small chilli peppers but volcanic, dont know what variety but hotter than jalapenos
  12. you want a pellet to suit two guns, shit, you don`t want much, yes a .22 dips a lot at longer ranges, thats where pellets on paper and rangefinding come in, as for what might work, the only way to find out is to put your hand in your pocket, buy loads of tins and try them, sorry if this isnt more helpful but thats the way it is, one pellet might suit one gun and another gun the same make and model will hate them, try loads and when you find one that suits, buy 10 tins, that should keep you going till its testing time again or do what i did and get a .177, shoots a lot flatter but still have
  13. what model you got, one piece stock or two piece, i`ve got both, no real problems with either but have changed the butt pad for an adjustable one on the .22 mk2
  14. this may seem a strange question to ask after all the crap thats flown about over this but---what has anyone actually lost---has someone taken over a shoot excluding all others or has someone else just been given permission to shoot, me personally would be happy to exchange some rabbit shooting for a good sqizzer patch, only thing i would like on shared land is a text to say when someone else is there on safety grounds, other than that, no problem
  15. have you checked all the fuse boxes, more than one on a trannie, also the lights that are not working are the ones controled by the rotary switch, check power feed to main light switch, some transits have had a habit of chaffing thru the loom below the engine bay fuse box
  16. http://www.britishmilitarysurplus.co.uk/index.html try here, have bought a fair bit of gear from here, as allways p&p is a pain so i try to bulk up any order i put in (usually socks, good value and most of the last lot i got were brand new)
  17. bulb gone fail, wiper gone fail, you gonna winge about that, they are things that you can check yourself very easily and when someone brings a car in for testing with these sort of faults it says to me that they cant be bothered doing anything themselves and rely on the MOT test to say their car is good so if there is a fault found on your car just be grateful that someone has actually given it a good checkover, if you dont want a fail ticket try doing some maintainance before sending it for test, and if your still not happy just ask for an appeal form (be aware that this can sometimes cause t

  19. get the power of your .177 checked, if its kicking out enough power and its accurate you can use that, .177 is all i use for all my hunting

    HP sauce

    thats not weird, marmite goes with most things
  21. its not the entry costs that bug me, its the bloody outragious cost of drinks and food, pre-booked my MGF this year but it will be a flask and sanies unless i can get some o/t in before the end of this month
  22. another problem area is the nylon bush in the pedal, when this wears the pedal can stay down when pressed, can`t remember exactly but i think we used to use a brass door hinge bush off a k10 (old, mk1 micra)or you could find a local machine shop that could turn one out of something a bit more robust
  23. epsom salts do work (to a limited degree) they were sold in the `s as `bat aid` tablets, they will clear sulphation but do nothing about distorted plates, if your battery has them, it`s stuffed
  24. as allready said, stick to domed pellets for best accuracy, if you want to try anything else just try different sizes in the same brand of pellet, you`d be surprised the change 0.01mm can make
  25. went to this last year, not big but felt more impressed at this show than the basc show up at bodelwyddan, think this show will get better with each year so will be attending again, gives me a warmup for the midland next month
