Got into this thread a bit late but the only people who are surprised by this news are the same people who were surprised that George Michael was gay . Definitely been blackmailed or forced to come out by a tabloid. I am probably the only person in the country who doesn’t feel sorry for his Mrs or kids ...... they could / should tell him to do one , because he’s a deceitful adulterer , but he’s a multi millionaire!!!!

My renewal came last year and I filled in a declaration to say I don’t need a license any more as I don’t watch live TV , and I don’t . I watch YouTube and Netflix. I think that the way the mainstream media and the BBC behaved during the election was incredible!!! We are being played for mugs by the elite left wing largely urban upper/ middle class . They think we are # Thick , we aren’t able to choose the direction our country should take . The establishment has shut down Tommy Robinson on YouTube, Twitter and Facebook. The likes of Nish Kumasi and his horrible history nonsense where he del

In that case I’m patient and caring . But I’m psychotic and sadistic!!!!

Got my chainsaw back from a service today , reckon I’m going to be out in the morning clearing fallen trees !!!

I thought I was reading a load of Tinder profiles . I know my faults and they are many !!! Sharing it on social media will not make me a better person. Especially hiding behind an avatar.

I thought I was on the wrong forum for a bit !!! Come on chaps !!! Stiff upper lip and all that we are English/ British, we don’t talk about ourselves like this ..... it’s wrong !!! Here’s a f@cking big slap on the back of your head , straighten up !!!!

I’ve never analysed myself , it’s “ pussy shit “ .!!!

I will be just happy catching “something “ . Any local knowledge or advice would be very welcome .

I’m off to Florida on Thursday, packed my ugly stick . Can’t wait to start fishing for Jack crevalle on the beach . Going down to key west and plan on fishing on the way . First stop is the basspro shop at Dania beach , the Mrs doesn’t know yet . I plan on a Goliath grouper charter . Watch this space , hopefully post some pics .

I had been tempted to get one in the past . A mate has a 410 moderated which we use in our terrier work for dispatch at the end of a dig . I have also thought of the advantages when pigeon shooting near housing . I have in the past had complaints about noise and police coming over to speak to me . But I’ve found that people will complain about even moderated shooting . It’s a tricky one as even when shooting mid week you are bound to disturb someone who has just finished a night shift . Best advice , keep shooting with a normal shotgun and grow a thick skin !!??

Nice one Stavross , well done Si ?

Put me down please Stavross ?

I’ve seen this , he can sure tell a story well . Like you say an interesting fella .

I don’t like all this pre match hype and crap talk . I prefer a humble fighter who lets his fists do the talking. I don’t like McGregor , cowboy seemed a nice decent family man , shame he lost . The McGregor money machine will rumble on until khabib whoops his arse again .

Running with the fox's!

He’s been well and truly dragged, kicking and screaming from the “dark ages” . I reckon it will be thermal next ? -
I’ve heard of the doubler issues, so I haven’t bothered. I know what you mean about the other issues too One of my main gripes is glare back from anything near the ir . I’ve got a nightmaster adjustable mount for the Ir . It’s not perfect but I’ve shot a lot of foxes with it . My next sight won’t be NV . When I do upgrade I will be going down the thermal route .
-
Might try that . I’ve got a .223 and a .243 with telescopic sights . So I tend to just swap rifles if I’m shooting at dusk , as soon as it gets too dark I just swap over . I meant to say in the previous post that I’ve compared the pard to the pulsar I’ve got on the same night , and the pulsar was a lot clearer and to me I preferred the pulsar, but for what Stavross wants and for the price the pard would take some beating.

Nice write up Ian , and a good nights work . Interesting to read about the vehicle.?
-
For what it’s worth I will add my two penneth . I have a pulsar N970lrf . I find it does what I want and I have shot foxes 200 meters plus . You can see them clearly no problem. You can also get a doubler which is good . I use a thermal spotter and the night vision scope and it s good . But even though they say you can use it day and night , I’ve found them not very good in daylight . If it’s too bright , forget it , also if the target is in a dark background it might not show up well . As regards these pulsar scopes not holding zero , that’s not been my experience, as long as you don’t drop o

When will you lot let it go ? I’m from Gloucester and it pisses me off !!! I was driving along the M5 / M6 and it was “Nottinghamshire , Robin Hood country ” , “ Warwickshire , Shakespeare country “ , then I drove home to Gloucestershire and there was nobody of note , all I could think of was “ Welcome to Gloucestershire ..... Fred West Country “ ???

If I wasn’t running a shoot day I would be there . I have always supported and attended every event I could . I am pissed off I can’t be there with you . Please step up and attend if you can . “Together we are strong”.

I looked at the beaters having lunch on the last shoot date , the banter was brilliant. I swear if you filmed it and broadcast it it would be more entertaining than any of the sh@t on at the moment. They were talking about all the wind ups and sh@t they got up to . Kids nowadays are too interested in video games . Some of the young lads there were pissing themselves, I said make the most of this because if the weather turns cold it might be the last time you get to hear stories like this .

I’d go along with that , sticks are a necessary evil . I was at the gun shop the other day and was talking to an old keeper who has retired now but has loads of permission and shoots a lot of deer and wild boar and makes a living at it . I’m not joking this guy is a legend In Gloucestershire and I’m going to mention his name because someone will know him .....Bill Taylor ! He has probably shot more things with a heart beat than anyone on this site . What does he use ? A couple of bags filled with rice . He showed me them . His Mrs knocked them up out of some corduroy trousers. The front bag
