  1. Best off going to your local shop fella - keep em in business and they can be useful for advice. TBH, a mixed bag, but my local shop is very good Duncan
  2. Hi MIA, you don't by chance come from Olney do you ? ;-) Duncan
  3. My bad!!!! Hit last topic rather than next and didnt read the date lol!!!! D ps - hate the 'C' word.
  4. a bit mellow for some, but I kinda like Noah and the Whale. D
  5. No worries Ian, such an apology would not be forthcoming from many forums
  6. I didn't know such things existed. What a sheltered life I lead
  7. Oddly, back then, cars mostly had drum brakes, no abs or traction control, but everyone still got to work when it snowed - odd, eh?
  8. An orange box and a loud hailer?
  9. "Dear Bogger, I am a 13 year old girl from the travelling community. I have 2 brothers and I am still a virgin. Do you think they are gay? Maud"
  10. Mind you guys, summer for me started end of march (got a good tan at a stag golfing weekend in devon) and continued through to end of July with very little rain - crops failing or growing weakly in many areas due to lack of water. It wouldn't be such a green and pleasant land if we didnt get wet occasionally! Now its nearly september so autumn is nearly upon us; lamping time! As for winters being cold, when I was a kid (say 20-30 years ago), winters were always cold with plenty of knee-deep snow and we just coped with it. The problem is these days after decades of mild winters, we have bec
  11. It's all how you ask, dude! Once you've been a couple more times and you look serious about it, maybe a nice chat with her could help? I reckon Brian would be supportive, espesh if we drag him along and get him hooked too
  12. Not sure how long you can in theory, but I'd keep it in there for 24 hours max and then cook it. Longer than a day and I'd be freezing it. You can probably keep it refrigerated a fair bit longer, but I'm fussy about my meat and the wife is borderline paranoid Duncan
  13. Yup, chrono it and you'll know. Still love my lil' ratty! Makes 8.5fpe and is very accurate out to 25/30 yards. Bagged a heck of a lot of bunnies with mine at close range too (mostly 20-25 yards) and it will always be in my cabinet as a good useable spare. Cheers Duncan
  14. So akton, the tidal wave of Negative reports are all bogus, with the very rare positive report being true? Suppose we only believe 10 percent of what we read, they still come across as a bunch of crooks.
  15. Hi Folks, I'm considering a .223 for my first centrefire calibre for fox, muntjac and cwd. Any pro's and cons? how much is factory ammo? Many thanks all! Duncan
  16. Despite having lamped with airguns for years, when I switched to rimfire I found i couldn't go back A good bag - well done! Duncan
  17. welcome! We're not so different Cheers Duncan
  18. Welcome indeed! Do spill the beans on what's good to hunt in Canada, cheers Duncan.
  19. corporal punishment required.
  20. That pooch holds more pi55 than I do lol!
  21. More ladies in pretty much any sport can't be a bad thing. Pink Power!!!
  22. Nice write up Bradley! I guess on that day I turned out to be a better coach than shot. Fortunately, I made up for it on sunday when shooting with my brother- we all have good days and bad I think you did very well for your first tine and showed some natural talent, furthermore I'll be happy to take you out again. Cheers Duncan
  23. No it isn't - brought over from South America where its found in the Brazilian Cottontail. For them it is really just a minor irritation, fatal to european rabbits (orytolagus corniculus). D. Erm, yes it is, www.myxomatosis.org.uk What planet are they from? Incorrect information put out as fact I'm afraid. The myxoma virus was around before man got 'clever' enough to manufacture viruses. Intro'd in 1954 to the UK, a scourge ever since. Addendum: First diagnosed and described in Uruguay in 1927, found naturally occuring in indigenous rabbit species. Ps - if your gonna
