  1. I'm with zapp on this, the actual truth is irrelevant, damage done in the eyes of the largely uncaring masses?
  2. Sadly John you are quite correct, once again we have these incompetents in jobs of importance to the detriment of most?
  3. And that thrust is possibly a corner stone supporting this whole debacle?
  4. Probably all about the publicity, naughty government department associated with shooting? The problem being that the likes of Packham, Avery and the G.C.N. never ever stop drip feeding stuff into the ministerial trough, whereas seemingly our organisations don't have the same portals? Far too simplistic?
  5. Yep, rats and cheese, nibble, nibble, one day all gone?
  6. Carried one for 64 years and not going to stop now. Was always a right of passage to be given one on trust. A Lansky Madroc World Legal Carry nowadays unless have good reason for locking blade or longer. Just another tool. Obviously sensitive to location as lots of dumb monkeys around unaware of the legalities and can't be bothered trying to eductate them.
  7. Geco solids and RWS Hollow points in mine.
  8. Yes and they knew where to aim too?
  9. Is IMHO the correct answer. The planet has always been in a state of flux, it that were to stop so would all life on it? It will eventually anyway Soon, according to the latest information none of us will be able to wash due to waters shortages.

    Windows

    I keep 7 and went Chromebook, one look a 10 blew my synapses.
  11. Experimental prototype device for parting MP's from their expenses?
  12. A Variegated Solomons Seal?
  13. One thing has recently become very clear to me, that, as is usual it will be the poorest sections of our society that again will carry the greatest burdens in both financial and convenience ways. Again, leading to an ever greater financial divide and the problems this will inevitably bring? Where is the common sense?
  14. Bless them all. All forms of opium required to drive the masses? Religion, Politics, Tribalism? How interesting. I have a vague feeling that the 'UK we' will bear the brunt of whatever loon proposals are implemented, us sitting freezing in the dark while others carry on just as they will? The frequent fliers certainly need more airports to fly to conferences on climate change and volcanoes keep right on popping away 24hrs a day? Manufacturers drive the type of plastics used to cover our food, lots of which is non recyclable anyway? The indecent push towards high tech devices supposedly to help will certainly backfire as the repair and replacement costs will be beyond the average means, never a mention of the cost of a new battery set for a hybrid car? Our power station closed with a proposed mega lithium battery installation on the part where 2500 homes are not built? All very odd? famine and disease stalk on Worldwide, eventually we will all face extinction anyway as this is the universal leveller. Never mind eh, lots of money to be extracted on the journey? I see Dave will be giving us more of an ear bashing on TV tonight, bless him too.

    Notre-Dame

    Which simply put, is how they stay that way? Personally I find this as disturbingly distasteful as our politicians incessant push to spend billions on HS2 and so called foreign aid, spending fortunes when we still have homeless people and starving children? Make it safe and leave it? When I look at Churches and Cathedrals I marvel at the remarkable constructions and think only of the Stone Masons and methods involved all that time ago but that's just me. No offence to anyone and tin hat firmly in place.
  16. Ah, maybe a more enlightened and less anal society than here?
  17. Importantly for immediate major trauma, maybe a couple of packets of Celox Haemostatic granules?
  18. IIRC, the Marsall-Andrews's are of the legal elite so wold have plenty of ears to whisper in?
  19. Agreed opp, much more to despair to come, of course as is usual feelings only affect those with some? It never ceases to confound me with the levels of arrogance, ignorance and low intellect these so called leaders exhibit, and we are classed as somewhat lower than worms *********? There must be something in the water at Parliament? Certainly an additive of trough attractant works well?

    foreign aid

    Switzerland following most of the rest probably?
  21. Could only really happen here, society being destroyed from within? Where does society turn when this happens? Bl00dy disgraceful when we have people sleeping rough and kids in poverty?
  22. Maybe not because of the price of imports but price of over technical home grown? Admittedly I know nothing of the makers or specifications of any mentioned but know from practical experience that eventually poor manufacture and over complexity kills the product. Additionally FWIW my repairer loves Air Arms.
  23. That could be one step too far?
  24. Nowt wrong with that mate!
