Result ? . Let us know how you get on with the pigeon.

A solid effort Stavross. Good to see you are getting on top of things . The new high tech approach is definitely paying off . You will be calling them in from the east and west riding with that speaker .??

Living the dream ?. Hope Charlie puts in an appearance Dave . Good luck ?

I was exhausted and in pain after seeing Billy Connelly . I wasn’t even a real sort of fan . I just got given some tickets and took a bird . I hadn’t really given him a second thought before. I’ve watched him on the telly , but even though its still funny , nothing is like being there and seeing him live . In fact I’ve found that with all the comedians I’ve seen , it’s funnier if you are in the audience.

I agree , it was of its time , and I wouldn’t go to see a “ gag Meister “ again . The best comedian I ever saw was Billy Connely . My rib cage was sore from laughing so much . I didn’t enjoy the singing though . Other comedians that I’ve enjoyed were Al Murry ( pub landlord) and Frankie Boyle , before he became a lefty lovie , or perhaps he always was one but I didn’t know , but his audience abuse is second to none . ???

I enjoy a driven day . I don’t think I’d pay big money for it but luckily I get a couple of invites to small friends shoots and also beaters / loaders days at the end of the season on a couple of commercial shoots . I was involved in a syndicate shoot ages ago and all the politics and lazy members soured the experience, so I know where a lot of the antipathy towards it comes from . But an invite to shoot birds is always welcome my end ?

You are probably right ??

I noticed those drinkers . I got some of Collins nets . And they are very good . I use them in the partridge pen . But until then I’ve got them outside one of the pens . I had to go to a funeral, so I asked someone who shall remain nameless to just check them if he was passing and top them up . I got back later on and they were bone dry. With those drinkers if they are not perfectly level or if they are tilted the wrong way even slightly they will drain via the outlet channel. Just saying it happens with them drinkers, maybe your member made a similar mistake?

I had a look in the hole and it was just what looked like a badger had dug it a while back , I’m not sure what it was after . But I know why the fox was there . I’d shot a fallow buck the other evening and tipped its guts in the hedge right next to where the fox trotted out from .

It just goes to show that you should always have a rifle with you . I am never on the shoot without my .243 during the day . For the most part it is just propped on the seat next to me doing nothing. I take it to and fro from my house to the truck to the mule and back several times a day . It’s a pain in the arse really. But this morning at literally 8.30 I had already been out and fed and gone home had breakfast and was back out driving across the stubble when my phone went and I’m sat in the mule having a natter , then I looked at my WhatsApp, and Ben had sent a picture of his quad with post

The birds look good Stavross. Fingers crossed it keeps dry a bit longer . ?

I saw Bernard Manning years ago too . Shockingly offensive . I remember some of his stuff from that night . “ I see Arthur Askey’s dead , he was a tight Cnut , I bet he’s up there having free flying lessons of Douglas Barder . John Lennon , he wanted peace , well he’s got it now. What did he marry that ugly Jap for ? She’s got a face like a blistered piss pot . Any Blacks in tonight? I can see you up the back there with your teeth . You are about as welcome as a Reggae band at a clu clux clan meeting. Anyone from the Forest of Dean in tonight? There is !! I thought you’d be at home f@cking yo

Think you’ve seen it all ? Take a look at this .

Children don’t need to hear anything about their crap identity issues, what they choose to identify as on which day . Kids should be kids . Life is confusing enough without all that sh@te . -

I watched a series on the box called something like Police : code 0 . It’s basically about the panic button police have if things go south . At the beginning of every episode they show police officers saying a bit about this code 0 button . There is this fat bespectacled WPC saying “ when you hear that button , you drop whatever you are doing and get there as fast as you can “ , I couldn’t help but think that any officer who is having problems is going to see her turn up and think “ shit , I’m f@cked “. -
Rainbow police cars . WTF is going on in the world .

RCBS Chargemaster
shovel leaner replied to sparky the hunter's topic in Reloading and Gun Maintenance
As with most RCBS kit , they are good quality and I believe they are very accurate. I have just invested in a Lyman gen 6 . So I did a bit of research. The RCBS powder systems were more expensive. The difference between the normal RCBS and the lite is that you can save load data on the normal one , and it’s also slightly faster , maybe a couple of seconds faster on an individual throw of powder , than the lite counterpart. I am in no way an expert or have tested them myself. This is just from the research I did prior to buying the Lyman . Which incidentally has been performing perfectly for me -
Have a good look at the springer Dave , I’d say it’s a GWP . Maybe you subconsciously prefer them ? Good grief, I sound like some sad troll . Apologies Dave , I don’t mean to nit pick ??? Anyway congratulations on your first couple of bucks Mark ?

Here’s my selection, Joe Rogan , check out the one with cowboy Cerrone where he described his near fatal cave dive …. Excellent. Here is one nobody has mentioned , cumtown , it’s a group of American comedians chatting shit . Check out the Steven Segal episode. Now I was never a fan of Russell Brand , I mean the guy is a vegan FFS . But I took a punt and listened to some of his political based podcasts and he is entertaining, and bang on with some of the stuff he comes out with . Whatever your views on the guy are , put them to one side and listen to the Nancy and Paul Pelosi , episo

Those Hawks aren’t cheap . I would imagine that whoever it belongs to will be making every effort to get it back . ?

Hope all goes well . You look set for some decent weather anyway. Hope the BOP gets reunited with its owner too. Bloody nuisance that .?

Good groups Si . I’m sure I could cut corners. I don’t tumble anymore I use an ultrasonic cleaner with a bit of white vinegar and washing up liquid, and they come out spotless. But I enjoy messing about with it . It’s just a bit of a hobby , and I prefer that to TV .? -
It may , I’ll see what my friend says . ?

Where do you get them ?……. asking for a friend . ??

Ever thought about getting out there at night ? It’s got Barronsdown written all over it . The thing is if they have a sanctuary like that it’s not fair on neighbouring farm land . Most landowners can put up with a bit of browse damage, but when it’s localised like that it’s not acceptable. I know what I’d do .
