  1. Ha ha so true, bloody managers thing they know it all and wont be told differently!! Squint
  2. Must be quite something Martin, to be abel to go to Asda and along side the the crisps and beans you quietly slip a few boxes of your chosen ammo in the trolley. Pack it without the wife seeing then off out to use it all!!! Squint
  3. I've got enough to do me for what I need and if I need more I go and buy what I need no point in having thousands upon thousands of the things cluttering up the house. All the prices can go down as well as up, are cartridges not cheaper now than at any point in recent history anyway??? Squint
  4. Do we not get a post like this ever couple of months?? Noboby panic buys paper clips when steel goes up in price!! Squint
  5. Jay, yes it is the oil industry for me. I work for a drilling systems company inspecting BHA's, stabilsers, under-reamers, steerable drill tools that sort of thing Squint
  6. I agree with Cranfield. How many other things in life are being taken over by computers, how many of our younger members (myself included) can do mental arithmatic, how many of us now rely on our spell checkers and grammer checkers??? If you can't find your way around should you really be driving??? Before you go look at the map plan your journey memorise your route then get in the car and drive, job done your at your destination. I find a map far more accurate I've used route planners and I'll admit there handy for finding a particular street or house in an unfamilier town or city but thats as good as they get. Where I live in Aberdeenshire whenever I go south of Glasgow they try and send me down the A1 instead of the M6 which is by far the quicker route. My brother and sister in law came up from Gloustershire and they came up a right funny way thanks to a route planner, on their return journey I told them the best way to go and they cut more than an hour off their time. It doesn't seem to matter how you set the profiles they are nearly always wrong. Please keep on mind I used to cover in excees of 90,000 miles a year in a car around Scotland and England Theres my tuppence worth Squint
  7. A damn fine few days shooting. Well done gentlemen! Squint
  8. I'm a non-destructive test inspector. I hide under a blanket looking at tools and watching out for cracks!!!!!! Any jobs going for an inspector in your machine shop TLE??? Squint
  9. The pond on the estate I live on has just been poisoned to rid it of the signal crayfish my old neighbour released. It's a bit of a state now but we're told everything else will return minus the crayfish. One of the best baits for the crayfish traps is meant to be catfood. Squint
  10. 1 I think they'll all have rusted together into one rusty lump!!! Squint

    Banning?

    Heres my tuppence worth for what it's worth. I have never in my life as yet shot a pigeon (not for want of trying after all I am squintshot), but I do shoot regularly. My spelling though far far better than Aleds, can be terrible. I am often cheeky thought hopefully not offensive. I aslo cause devaitions from threads and post nonsense. Will I be banned??? The cause of a deviation from original content cannot souly be placed at the feet of the poster of the rouge comment, everyone that responds to this is also at fault as it's up to them to change track or ignore the comments and go back to the original subject. Teal a note on shooting related posts. A quick look at your own profile shows that over one quarter (28%) of your posts are in General Banter. According to your good self this is to "Talk about things other than shooting...". That is non shooting related posts are you going to ban yourself?? Squint
  12. Do any of you fine gents have an opinion on these garments. Are they any cop??? Squint
  13. The cage traps that are on the estate are in use so would need to get more sharpish. Snares are to hand!! IT managers is raging the thing go it to the server room and crapped everywhere!! Squint
  14. Does anyone know about the legallities of snaring feral cats?? We have one that comes in to my work to scavenge the bins and has a habit of excreting everywhere we know where it comes in and out but can't block this hole. It's a dangerous shot so not an option. Cheer Squint
  15. I'm guessing he's got a dictation package on his computer because he no longer has his secratary!!! Squint

    Hopeful.

    Maybe their shy or maybe they can't speak or maybe they can't type or maybe their dyslexic (why did they make that such a hard word to spell?) or maybe I shouldn't drink and maybe I should get some sleep before I go shooting tomorrow!! Just a thought Squint
  22. Jim, are you sure your not really santa in a bad disguise??? Squint

  24. Jim maybe you need the help of a little festive cheer to pull a cracker but some of us can do it all year round!! Is that why your so miserable, thought you'd have been happier at this time of year office parties and lots of drunk women.!! Squint
