  1. I use Adblock which is about 90% effective. Eventually ads get through and after few hours they'll be blocked they've updated their program. The various ad blocking programs are always going to catching up. Other option is pay Pootube.
  2. Round here, it rains, fields flood, it stops, eventually the water subsides then it starts raining again and fields flood again. I think we've had a decade of rain fall in 2 months.
  3. Thats a sad loss. πŸ˜” Make me smile is a fav song of mine.
  4. If you plan on loading them into a lever rifle such as Marlin i would crimp the bullet into the case. The magazine spring will push all the bullets into the cases which isn't good. While the load you're suggesting isn't hot you might still over pressure the firearm if the bullet disappears to bottom of case on top of powder. If you will be using them in a long barrel revolver you would be fine pressure wise. I put a small crimp on mine when using in my Alpha LBR just to hold the bullet in place. Just means i can get more life out of the cases. Pistol calibre cases are usually not the best of quality due to much lower pressures they have to put up with. And if you haven't already-get yourself a reloading book -the Lee one is very good and available from Amazon, Ebay or Kranks. Yes it treats you like an idiot with pictures etc but as a newbie you kinda are. I've seen a number of accidents over the years due to negligence with reloading so eliminating/reducing risk is always good. Listening to advice is one thing but dont accept everything as being correct-including mine. Me personally, for normal 38 special shooting i use 158gn RNFP hard cast lead bullet, small pistol primer, 3 grains of Ramshot Zip in a 357 case. Its a nice soft load for shooting 25m and the recoil dont knock the fillings out of your gob. I used Bullseye for years but that stuff if terribly dirty. I do cast my own bullets and sit on a lot of lead i must add. If i want to hike it up to 357 magnum i go 158gn FMJ (full metal jacket) projectile, small pistol primer, 9 grains of Ramshot True Blue in a 357 case. Its an accurate load but the recoil is considerably greater. All my loads have been chronoy'd and within limits i must add. Generally, i only ever use 357 cases regardless of what load im shooting-same goes for 44 magnum and 44 special. It prevents a carbon ring forming on the forcing cone of the barrel (from shorter rounds of ammunition). To me, 38 sp cases are scrap but i've got thousands of 357 cases and i'll never run out.
  5. The only Fast Show episode i watched back in the day was the final one which Jonny Depp appeared on. I was always out back then and never really watched tv-still dont infact. Only reason i watched this one is because the tabloids were making a fuss about it.
  6. I was 14 years old and still at school so doing normal teen things
  7. My neighbour has one and passed a renewal. πŸ‘
  8. The trouble with raising the retirement age is, we slow down the older we get and employers wont accept that. Mine for example dont give a fig how old you are and everyone gets given same amount of work-old or young.
  9. The best screenwash you can buy is made by 'Decasol'. Not the cheapest but if you mix it 50/50 it wont freeze. Only problem is availability. Due to the price, shops rarely sell it as most drivers want cheap and cheerful.
  10. Tattoos were something i always wanted throughout my life but never did because if you dont like it/them afterwards-your stuck. But in 2019 i suffered multiple strokes which very nearly ended my life at 49 years old and i thought what the hell. Got a quite number of them on arms,hands and a small one on head. Life's too short. Do whats right for you then and there.
  11. Hence me saying hence. All licensing authorities have their own little interpretation.
  12. Allegedly, Herts, Cambs & Beds have a 9 gun rule. Over this-they want an alarm. Over 15 and it needs to be monitored alarm.
  13. I take medication for my bladder as i too have an enlarged prostrate, but also side effects of medication i take for stroke. Im currently taking Trospium chloride twice a day (morn/eves). I'd love to say its working but it isn't. I was first prescribed sollfenacin but it did nothing. I dont drink no where near enough liquids and im always thirsty. I seriously have to watch the amount i drink in relation to how far i am from a loo.
  14. Try attaching copper tape to your house. You will need to make a full circle so both ends touch but it does work. The copper tape naturally gives of static electricity and they dont like it. Try putting it very low down so its less noticeable. Obviously you're gonna need many many rolls to complete the circuit so Amazon/Ebay?
  15. I have to take a particular supplement due to health issues and the medication i take daily. Four years ago i suffered several strokes at 49 years old which very nearly killed me and ever since, i take a lot of tablets to prevent any more happening. Problem is, one particular drug removes every trace of potassium from my body so i take one potassium supplement twice a day with everything else. Eating high potassium rich foods makes no difference-its still zero %. I did my own research and three months ago i started taking a magnesium supplements too-again twice a day. Since then,my blood pressure has dropped which is good. Give it a go if you are suffering from high blood pressure. I know i sound like a typical Amazon/Ebay review but i cant speak more highly of the results.
  16. mmmmm, love black pudding.
  17. Got one myself but not heard of a jammer. Round here couple years ago, kids were levering them off doors. For what reason i dont know because once registered to you, they wont work for anyone else.
  18. Cheers for that. I've downloaded it and will have a play at weekend when i have more time. πŸ˜€
  19. Does anyone know where i can download Microsoft Office 2010 for free? I had it on another laptop which was all paid for etc etc years ago but that computer died last week. I know 2010 has been superseded by Office 365 but i have an external hard drive with stuff on that i can no longer access due to needing the programme. I no longer have the product key for original before anyone suggests it!
  20. Im booked in for the covid booster this Sunday but im genuinely having 2nd thoughts. Over last three years i've been around many people who have allegedly had it but not contracted it myself. I've been pretty good with viruses etc my entire 53 year life and only had genuine flu twice in that time. Occasionally, (every 5 years or so) i'll pick a cold but i just get on with my day. Drs recon im at risk due to my bad health and im not sure whether to have it or not. Same goes for flu jab. They convinced me last year to have the flu jab so i guess that needs doing as well?
  21. I think everyone on my small road know i shoot. They've seen me walking to & from car often enough with rifle/shotgun slips etc over the years. The one neighbour who my house is joined to though is an anti despite being brought up on a farm so have to be careful around him. The guy opposite is fine-infact he is one referees for my fac and vice versa.
  22. Received the Hornady resizing lube was today and tried it out. Felt very greasy between fingers and worked a treat
