  1. Some people have all the luck! Mac, did Daz send you a photo last night?
  2. Mac would tell you that I'd still miss hahahahaha
  3. Thanks Charlie, what a wonderful offer. If I'm ever down your way overnight, Ill be sure to give you a shout
  4. That's good with me I'll just go straight to the permission, Daz. That way I can get back home and in bed quicker haha. Did you phone me? I haven't got your number in my phone and had a missed call.
  5. Mac, I put it in the slow cooker yesterday morning with mushrooms, onions, garlic, parsley, chillies and chicken stock. Let it sit away for 6 hours then we had it with some rice. The meat was so tender it just fell off the bone, absolutely wonderful. I also found the pellet! Nah I told her the truth about who shot it
  6. All I've thought about today is lamping rabbits
  7. Tin Can Alley, Only I can’t Hit The Tin Cans! Well that was a HUGE learning experience, but in a good way, a very good way! I may have come home without a kill, I didn’t come home empty handed though, I came home armed with information ready for next time. I had two problems… 1. Locating the target through the scope. 2. Breathing Control, or total lack of in my case! I don’t know if it’s a newbie thing but once the rabbit’s lamped, when I bring the rifle up and look through the scope it seemed to take ages to locate, towards the end of the night it did get a li
  8. Errrrm I ain't getting my nuts out, well not unless it's mandatory
  9. A hat?? Thanks for reminding me what those things are called
  10. Craig, thanks mate. When my dad left the forces you'd have thought he was preparing for a Zombie Invasion! I just need to get som DPM pants and something for my head.
  11. Thanks, Mac. You've no idea how much I appreciate the offer. I've got transport, camo gear shouldn't be a problem. Darryl, that would be mint! Again, I really appreciate the tentative offer. I'll send both a pm
  12. Fingers crossed I know he's got Daz under his wing at the minute so didn't even think he'd respond tbh.
  13. Mac, that's very kind of you. I know you're helping Daz out, so didn't think for a minute that you'd even consider it.
  14. Craig, my old man was in the forces for 32 years and was a shooting instructor. Both myself and my brother were taught to shoot from about the age of 7, obviously I've only ever done target shooting. A few months ago I suddenly got the urge to take up shooting again after about 20 years away. I know how to shoot, but shooting on a range is far different to shooting in the field.
  15. I hope so, moxy. I have a BSA R10 Mk2 in .177 and a AA TX200HC in .177
  16. I know this is a bit of a wing and a prayer... Is there anyone in the North East that has their own permission or land, willing to show me the ropes and teach me a few tricks? I'm 100% not after your permission, I'm 40 years old, so not some daft kid, I'll do exactly what I'm told, I'm as green as grass and I'm just looking for guidance. I'm a quick learner, thick skinned and don't mind having the piss taken out of me. After I gain some experience under someone else's wing, I'll then look for something myself. I know it's a long shot but hey, shy bairnes get now't.
