should I hack of the skirting board?
cragman replied to fenton88's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
Fenton, I know what you mean fella. I took a little bit of skirting board out before fitting mine but I'm sure yours will be fine. My safe is in a real tight spot so you'd struggle to get a jemmy behind any gap anyway. You could always run a bit of sealant down the sides to tidy it up. -
Used to knock about with Mick Hucknall when I was a kid and sat next to radio DJ Pete Mitchell in school.

I haven't started jogging yet but I'm doing spinning on the bike at the moment as well as riding on the road (and fell hunting). I've got a charity ride next year, Paris to Blackpool in 5 days! The jogging will be next on the list.

The fuc*ers can't keep up with us!

To the twat in the wheelchair that nicked my camoflaged jacket.....you can hide but you can't run! I said to my lad, "Where you going?" He said "I'm off out to meet a girl", I said "don't forget to wear a...you know" He said, "What?" I said, "you know" He said "Do you mean a condom?" I said "No, a f****n' hat you ginger cnut".

I had a call back today from my insurers asking if I'd got another quote..."Too feckin' true fella" I tells him, "£276 cash or £302 on the never never". "Erm, I'll see if I can do any better from that first price I gave you yesterday", (over £500). Taps on the key board for a minute...."How about £450 and £160 cash back in 3 months?". "Can't you do any better?" says I....Pause, tapping on key board, " How about £190 cash back?"....."I'll think about it fella".

Spot on John, a perfect answer. The foxes teeth lay down annuli, or a ring of enamel every year. By cutting the tooth in half and applying dyes, the age can be found. Much the same as aging a tree and counting the rings when they're are felled.

Funnily enough, I've just had a call from my insurers for my battered up Polo....800 dabs!! It's gone up £500. The fiddling cnuts. He did a quick comparison while on the phone and told me he'd got it down to £500 with Aviva. I've just been on Gocompare and got it down to £272 fully comp with Churchill. The cars worth £400. I've put the wife on the policy, that seems to help bring it down. She'll never drive it as it stinks like a fox earth.

Whereabouts are you in West Yorks? Tried to PM you, your in-box must be full.
-
Yep, you're right. I've known the fella and family a lot longer fella and I can tell you that the man's got time for anyone who visits. He's a top bloke. Looking forward to seeing the pack go well this year now a new huntsman is in place. Edmund's wife is poorly at the moment so all his time will be spent nursing her. Blitz, perhaps you stood on his toe as he was passing.

Yes, it's good for you but in moderation I'd say. I buy mine from a local beekeeeper, it's much better than the massed produced shite you get from a supermarket and it's cheaper plus it's good to support the local beekeepers. It tastes better too. I drizzle some on my porridge every morning, along with a handful of raisins and a chopped banana. Keeps me going until dinnertime.

I suppose it would be possible, if you ferret a clean area straight after an infected one. But fleas will travel around in various ways...on other animals that prey or live around the infected rabbit, ie, foxes, birds, rabbits of course, dogs and cats and probably rats. I control the rabbits on a local farm that has had myxi. There's hardly a rabbit on there now but only yards away is another spot I do and it's crawling with them and they all seemed well enough this morning when I walked through.

I went to Rydal and it was a cracking day. Just a very light shower late in the afternoon, otherwise it was very warm and dry. We came away about three o clock. Promised shit weather but they got it wrong again.

Walshy, I've a Ruger Hornet and it's doing the business for me. I've had six charlies in the last three weeks with it, from between 70-100 yds. I'm on home loads now, thanks to a good friend but I've tried S&Bs which were ok. Like you say, try a few different loads first and get used to the gun and it's trajectory. I've just got used to mine having only had my FAC since the turn of the year and now it's paying off. I didn't do much to start with being content to shadow a mate who I lamp with. Now I go on my own. It's a good rifle is the Hornet.

I've just got in from an hour out with the Hornet. I bought an LED torch a few weeks ago, only a 120 lumens. Today I bought a figure eight mount for it from Manchester Airguns. Couldn't fault it tonight, plenty of light for the Hornet and the Hornets range. Picked off a nice vixen at 90yds behind the farm with it, right in the napper. For difficult to see distances, I'd recommend carrying something bigger just to make sure of your target first. Easy enough if you have a lamp man with you.Some of these LEDs give out too much light.

Always carry a tick remover fellas, not just for yourselves but your mutts too.

I was stood at the urinal having a piss when I looked down to see a dwarf standing next to me, winking. I looked away, then looked back at him and he winked again. I said, "Are you winking at me you queer short arsed fecker?" He repied,"No, you twat, you're splashing me".
-
Seen that before and it still makes me laugh...."It's a japs eye"..."Arthur Daly", hilarious.

Stick it on "E Bay for the short-sighted", it'll go like f**k.

I don't bother these days, been there, done that . When my lads home we'll walk to the local, which is like going back in time...no music, no telly, seventies decor and OAPs playing bones, it's wonderful. No trouble and friendly, polite people with some intelligence. I more or less stopped when it got to a quid a pint.

Someone must be dropping the feckers, so keep shooting them.
-
Utter shite telly. I watched it as I was curious...never again. Though the bunny huggers will have had their minds made up for them. Tossers

As the title says....I've read it and can recommend it, excellent with cracking photos. Due out mid August. Titled "away, my lads, away" by Jill Mason. PM for details.

.....I've also got another print hung on the wall at the moment called "Conflict", showing a Terrier and a fox fighting in the open. Very nice.
