Very short Notice. pigeons over rape
activeviii replied to activeviii's topic in Sporting Opportunities (Paid)
Not a problem Mike. next time no one can make it at the moment so i think i might have to make up a story or two just to big it up a bit.hehe ATB Phil -
Just had the call from farming giles saying millions of pigeons on rape. i have a few fields of rape to shoot over so if anyone wishes a day out tomorrow then please shout me. 8am on the field, just outside ledbury in gloucestershire A417. loads of room so space for a few other people. all i ask is respect the land and owner. your own gear insurance and respect other guns. just remember this is winter rape and flocks of pigeons so it is either going to be a fair day or i one bird day. all the best Phil

i have been off sick for 9 yrs, living on 9k a year, trying to give my 2 kids what i can as well as the wife for all she does for me and my lads. government gave a grant for a new boiler but cant afford to put heating on so a waste i guess, cant afford to go out for a meal, to go out for a drink, i even had to give up smoking. havent had a holiday of any sort for the last 9 years. went and helped a guy out last week for 20 quid, yes doing beating. cost me more than £20 in fuel and i have been laid up, rather unwell since. so please dont start getting on your horse, spouting off that most disabled people are taking the **** because you sir are out of order taring us all with the same brush. yes there are people that take the **** and they are getting caught up with. but it isnt MOST disabled, it is some. i get p1ssed off with people saying there is nothing wrong with me as im out walking around, try stepping into my boots for a month and see how many times you end up on the floor in the living room, unable to move and how many times you get out and enjoy being out. only time i get seen is the good days, very few have seen the bad days sorry for the rant but some people get my goat up as well.

Grab the flamethrowers, I'm going in!

wish they would drop the price for disabled. i couldn't afford to pay the subs due to very little income from being disabled so i had to go to a differant insurer this year. Phil -
same here. hook on back of the decoy so it can hang from tree then i put the pole up the hole in the bottom of it. to get them down i just poke them and let them fall. cheap, light and easy. Phil.

great start, fun isnt it.lol. two quick ones. if your using just the net in the photo then it might be worth putting a bit more over it. most important one is dog....dont wreak her. test he with gun fire from a distance first as once scared then very hard work to get her over it. have fun Phil.

If every thing is running fine at the moment and you what it to work 'just because you can' then make a restore point now. I think from what you have said, your system is fine but just in case you want to download something, you would like a restore point. Goto system restore and create a restore point. always handy to back up files, photos, music and favourite up once a week/month, depending on pc use. I dont like partitions as if hard drive goes then all gone. i just back every thing over to a stand along Hd once a week. pain in bum but learnt the hard way................twice.lol. phil.

I phoned and phoned, told them that i was getting hassle from the farm as pigeons everywhere and i had just lost a farm due to time taken. they came out a few days later and 3 weeks after i had ticket on mat. just wish i could stop losing farms due to not having an unrestricted FAC. ring them.

only if you have a problem with it or big pockets. have a quick look in your fuel filter and see if theres black rubber like bits in it as this can be the first tell tale signs. as AL4X said. if you start up in the morning and then drive a short distance and the truck just stalls then very good chance that one of the pump seals have gone. if your getting one changed then get someone who knows what there doing to chance it. its only a £10 part but lots of work involve, plus pump will need balancing afterwards. just had mine done under warranty as i bought it from a garage. flashing dash lights are another. if when you take it out of 4wd you see the top two green lights flashing an not turning off then just put into reverse and go back 10 foot or so and it will know it out. the center diff lock light is an other one. mine was just a switch that packed up but its a gearbox out job to fix it. go over to pajero owners club as theres loads and load of good info there. good guys and girl as well.lmao. all handbook are online but can be hard to find. the Haynes manual is a waste of time as it tells you nothing more than how to suck eggs. check under neath for rust as they dont come with underseal from china but with luck the last owner knew what he was doing and waxoiled under it. service it every 6 months, 5000mile, look after it and it will look after you. if like mine you have 3 tow loops on the back i would get 3 tow straps as well, it will save you time...... ....you can pull 3 grassrovers out at the same time then.hehe.

where you stored your images, look under each photo and it has a list of link things. one is a img link. click it once and it will turn blue then right click and 'copy' then paste into the thread you want the photo in. didnt want to put the other one up as wasnt sure which one it was as link was broken and i didnt want the wrong photo showing up.lol. all the best Phil.

No. the saying is that your unlucky to live. your hair stays turning grey and falls out from now on and you skin starts to wrinkle. its true, look at all the people that have had a shock and everyone of them are having this happen to them....its true. honest. I have seen a screw drive fly across a room and stick n the wall on the other side. i have seen a big hole get blown into the mattress of a bed as well. i have two brothers that thought they knew it all.hehe something i always remember, its not the volts that kill, its the amps.

i would have a quite word with your FLO, if he has done it once and got away with it then you can bet he will do it again. even if you have a word with him it will not stop him as it sounds like hes an 'at all costs' type shooter who thinks he can get away with anything.

I did write a long post but after reading it back i thought better not. basically i retired 10 years ago under medical grounds. bored, lonely and skint comes to mind.lol. i was planned for 55 and saved everything and worked hard for it all. was planning to start enjoying life at 55 but now i wish i had done it from the start and retired every weekend rather than working them. enjoy life as you live as you never know what will happen later in life. Phil.

i get around 10 hrs out of a 12 amp and 14hrs out of the 12amp, thins is with a pinewood that comes with a 7amp battery. one of the reasons you dont get long out of a battery is having long leads from the rotary and battery and/or to thin a wire. Phil.

12v battery question for any battery experts!
activeviii replied to pegasus bridge's topic in Pigeon Decoying Equipment
if its for a flapper from shootwarehouse then a 7amp will last a long time as it was a 3.2amp that came with my flapper. i use the pinewood rotary and that comes with a 7amp which gives me around 5hours use on full whack. i have a 12 and 17amp that i use for the summer and for lamping. the cheapest 17amp was from aldi, i there power packs. £24 for the power pack and just strip the battery out, comes with mains and car charger as well.

easy way of getting a sit for longer. Treats get some cheap, low salt, sausages. in a dish with little water and chuck in microwave until cooked. brake up tiny tiny bits, i use pea sizes, tell daisy to sit, as soon as bum touches the floor give treat. this will speed up the time it takes her to sit. after a while you can tell her to sit but this time let her see the treat but dont give it her. count to 3(in your head) and give treat. then one she is sitting there for the count of 3 without moving then count to 5, then 10 and so on until you get her to stay there, you can then try walking around her then going to her and treating , then out the room and back. in time you can faze out the treat and just praise her most dogs will do anything for food, its just the timing you need to get ring so that you rewarding the right behavior. hope this helps All the best Phil.

Nice rifle there. you have the sling but i cant see any studs for it. how long have you had it. do you know what its Lb is. Phil. -
And as your not a chef then you as not allowed to cook chicken or sea food as you might be poisoned and die. leave the cooking to a professional who have qualifications and charges the earth. IF it was illegal then you wouldn't be able to by the things from the local diy store you would have to show your ticket to get the parts over the counter. your house, do as you like, lets not be told what we can and can do but thats not what the question was. all you have done is put the wires from the consumer unit into the wrong side of the switch. what happens is when you pull the cored you complete the circuit to the wires that go to shower, the little light is wires on to the shower side so lights up once there is power feed to other side of switch. as you have the light on all the time means you have just put mains and load into the wrong side of switch. hope you sort Phil.
