  1. Had a look on there web site can't see any new rotorys but they have got replacement motors at 60 quid,
  2. Google sporting scene & pinewood, think they are the new company,
  3. I rent an allotment from the parish council no shooting allowed. Major problem with urban woodies they have no fear. Everything they eat has to be netted or it's stripped within a couple of days.
  4. I sourced an original remote for a older sharp tv couple of years ago from remotes4u based in Donny they have website.
  5. Simular situation to the op with someone I know, renewal sent in on time then gp form sent out 2 week later, left at the doctors who kept it for 3 weeks then refused to complete it (they want nothing to do with firearms). He had to get a copy of his medical records and send them to a gp recommended by BASC who completed it for a fee. Looks like this is the way I will have to go when mine is due same doctors. South Yorkshire police area FLO has been good dealing with it.

  12. Me and the wife have just done ours with solicitors , both been married before 4 grown up kids between us. My mother who is 90 had to go into care in last year, early onset dementia which has been a nightmare getting things sorted no power of attorney, no access to her due to pandemic then you get a jobsworth on the phone who comes out with, can your mother come into the bank if not there is nothing we can do. Its been a very stressful experience but we've managed to sort it for now. So we also set up financial and medical LPA for the 2 daughters it was an expense but well worth it to us.
  13. After the pit closed in the 90s the slag heap was grassed over and loads of trees planted, I can remember the slopes on one side being planted in the 70s. It is now a public park and there is one area mainly tall hawthorn that magpies and pigeons roost in through the winter, well sheltered from the wind. At times I have seen 50 plus magpies just before dusk.
  14. Full metal jacket, boot camp South Carolina, give way lines at road junctions on left hand side.

    Cold Frames,

    I rent an allotment from the parish council, the clerk is a proper jobs worth and the rules are enforced with threats of eviction once you have signed tenancy agreement. Only one 6 by 6 ft aluminium greenhouse etc. I managed to get one for free after daughter put an add on face ache for me, then couple of month later was given another so I made it into a 6x2 coldframe and kept the spare glass also made cloches from plastic pipe and scaffold debris net
