Glad the wife is ok. i would have guessed by the description they would have gone off, but I don't know enough to really say that in all tRuth. what age is the car, as that also makes a difference. the comment about bumpers been nudged to set off airbags and open doors was correct, a good few yrs back, am sure they learnt a lesson from that and things have been addresed since then. cars are designed to crumple around you in any impact, the car is classed as sacrificial first, crumple zones, which is very annoying in a tiny shunt as it can costs thousands replacing bu

Spot on that griff, I can never be bothered to put handles in my old heads, but that resin soaked denim has made me think again.

Indian runners ain't too noisy, it's usually cockerels people moan about as they start too early for a lot of folk, but ducks generally only make any noise when out and about

I think this is one most of us would like to sign .......

I find it very hard to believe muslims are only 5%, on that basis, five people in every hundred, complete bollocks, a single drive through my town, the next town, the one after that, some parts are 100% Muslim, and even the known white districts are more than 5% Your bang on the money about kosher though, just as unacceptable as halal and should have been opposed, the only difference been, kosher was never so widely available or filled our shops/supermarkets like halal seems to have done. -
That is stunning, but you wouldn't want it in your pocket, looks very fragile.

.25 Air Rifle Power FAC recommendations.
Rabid replied to dixyhmr's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
I have access to a cricket in .25 and a Vulcan in .25, and a matador in .25, I use all these 3 rifles regularly when we go out, all are running between 43lb (Vulcan) and 50lb cricket, and all of them shoot incredibly flat for the heavy .25 lead. my shooting buddy had a rapid .25 at 30lb. and he had massive trajectory, ok once you learn it, but limited the range for him due to lack of mildots on the scope. bsa limit the fac versions to around 30 as the accuracy goes terrible if it's pushed out much more than that. -

Most places do not advertise the fact they only use halal meat, subway, KFC, greggs etc etc you have to do your research to find out who is halal and who isn't. a few takeaways advertise the fact, mainly as the 'dare I say it' Muslim faith is all halal, and they outnumber us by far, so the few customers they loose is a drop in the ocean to the many they gain. -

i think you need to actually understand the petition, just like a lot of the comments on here, this is not about banning halal meat, or even halal slaughter, it's about banning the law that makes them exempt from our animal welfare laws, i.e., they need to stun everything first and not just cut its throat and let it bleed out whilst still fully conscious, I actually agree they should never have been exempt from our laws from day one. I signed it weeks ago. And I hope it does make a difference, but I doubt it will. the next step is to get everything that is halal slaugh -

Why would they not be able to eat kebabs? -
Ah, that made me laugh, I know a few folk who would struggle to tell the difference.

Talking to everyone finally paid off

Well done, good things come in time, show them regular results and you be getting more and more from it, just look after it and your set. -
Sounds a good day out all round, great sport, time with the dog, cracking views, and a workout, what better, thanks, I enjoyed reading that.

Nice one on the shark, had a few myself in Cornwall, must get my boat back down there. thought it was illegal to 'target' tuna, and if caught 'accidentally' your not able to land them

My question would be, as a responsible bloke like you seem, how did the dog have the means to get under the fence to start with, you say you dreaded it happening, now be a decent neighbour yourself and put things in place so it can't happen. fair play to next door though, they handled it properly, just make sure you do your part

An all time favourite quote I have in my mind when I was chatting with my mate about his, 'It doesn't matter it keeps breaking, they are so easy to work on', to which I replied, I would rather they didn't break in the first place.

In a word, NO i know several guys who have fx in FAC and they love them, 'when' they are working, too many problems and I usually get 'can't tonight mate, bloody gun is playing up', them things spend more time broken or been fixed than shot !

Phil, I want 400 notes for it, I would include postage for you. i will pm you, but to be open about stuff, it will be an offer of trying the unit out before spending your hard earned, either you come down here and try it or I post and you give it a go see what you think.

I would swerve fx like the plague, I've not a good word heard or to say about them, apart from one user on her with the impact. bsa r10 are good, and I rate them, but I would go old school and buy a s10 for fac. or bite the bullet and buy a cricket, you WILL be impressed.

I had the primo sticks till they were left lying in the grass and the mower ate them, great sticks, but a bit pricey, and you need to look after them or the legs stop working. i have a twin set of sticks, with an elastic band at the top type idea, no idea what make, but they just seem bullet proof. bottom line, twin sticks do the job quicker and easier, albeit not quite the stable platform, triple or quad offer, so it depends if your on the move carrying sticks and need to stop and take a shot pdq, or if you have a bit more time to set up and take a shot the primo can

Well, up until a couple of years ago I would have been with all the nay Sayers, they didn't exist in the wild in the uk unless it happened to be an escaped one from public/private collection and even then it was for weeks rather than years, and most certainly not breeding in the wild, in fact, I still have my doubts about it happening or been true. But, I was heading home fairly early evening a couple of winters ago, about 6-30 ish, think it was in October but can't be sure, and I saw something, I didn't see it for seconds or minutes, just merely a glimpse, from the verge something

Ps, I do a bit of glass work on boats myself, what Matt did you use,it's all about the wieght of the layup.but3 layers will be pretty flimsy without some stiffeners in it. i can't see the gel underneath the glass work.

The problem with any waterfowl, mud, drinkers will fill up with it, buckets, ponds, boats !!! I always try and use things that will tip over or rinse out easy, my ducks in one pen (just 3 ducks) will half fill a bucket with mud in a day, that boat will soon be a boat full of mud mate, great idea,and very commendable wanting to do it for them, but it will be hard work for you. try a few mats around it to keep it cleaner,or use a bath so you can pull the plug and rinse it out.

I would love to have them around here, truth is we're over run with greys. I hope the reds can hang onto the few spots they have and increase in number

That's no a bad thing, wish I could say that.
