  1. You shouldn't swap the wires to the controller, it could (or did) damage it, but if you swap the wires from the controller to the rotary, I would expect it to work. Hope this helps Cheers Malcolm
  2. ,be positive there is a burn steam water close by and put the dog in it every few hours I should give my dog a sauna (every few hours)?
  3. Land Rover Series III SWB for sale (1983 2.25 petrol). Excellent condition, never let me down. 9 months tax Mot 'til August 1750 GBP O.N.O Malcolm (Milton Keynes)
  4. I have some army camo netting for sale. One piece is about 10 x 5, the other is 10 x 9 but I fold it over so that it is more dense. 10 quid for both or 15 quid with duffle bag. Too bulky to post. PM me and I will email picture. I am in Milton Keynes and work in Northampton. Cheers Malcolm
  5. Thanks, I'll try that. Cheers Malcolm
  6. Still stuck, I need some patience I suppose for the oil to soak in. Choke key tommy bar bent and plastic bits melted . I am starting to round the castellations Gun smith talked of oxy-acetelene. I think he had better do that. I will sent the final outcome Cheers Malcolm
  7. Many thanks everyone, I'll have a go and tell you how I get on. I was worried about using too much force or over heating it. Cheers Malcolm
  8. Please help Anyone, A rather helpful friend overtigtentened the choke in my semi. Co-incidently Browning "stored" it for 3 months while they did a warrenty repair. And guess what....... I can't get the choke out now. I've tried keys with spanners for leaverage, gentle heat (just hand hot) but no joy. What do you suggest or what would a gunsmith do? Cheers Malcolm PS On the bright side its a 1/4 that stuck in So why would I want to change it eh?
  9. John, If I want to carry anything heavy I always use a rucksack, because as you say, you don't notice it. So why didn't I think of it for batteries?
  10. Thanks John, The backpack is a great idea, I had it on a belt bag and it was very lob sided Malcolm Pick up a quiet backpack and stick the battery in it if it's proving akward, I've a 14ah one and it's like it's not even there (the over the shoulder carry case annoyed the you know what out of me), I do all my lamping on foot, usually alone. I'm thinking of getting a bigger battery for my rifle to use with a 170 lightforce. You'll get great exercise too!
  11. Rain stopped, went out at 7pm Rain started again, got soaked, but got 2 rabbits in a hour or so by walking around. I could see that waiting in the vehicle would have been fruitless on this ocassion. I am glad I have "had a go" and was quite pleased with my first attempt. Thanks Malcolm
  12. I've only got an air rifle, but favour a lazy approach tonigh as its P** .... (raining) Thanks for your replies What you shooting with Malcolm? I shoot a cz 22lr from the comfort of my Vitara. Getting a bit lazy i suppose Even on really still nights with the engine running i can often get to within 30 yards of the grass gobblers and drop a few. I usually get within shooting distance of known bunny hot spots, flick the lamp on (deben mini pro) quickly and accuratley take my shot as soon as ive identified the glowing eyes as belonging to 'bugs'. I keep the time i have the lamp on to a minimum to reduce 'bugs' wising up.. I still do some walking around my shoot as there is a lot of 'set aside' and i follow a similar method to shooting from the jeep in that i keep the use of the lamp to a minimum. I also watch the amount of noise im making and wear dark clothing even if its 'pitch dark'.. if im walking any 'bugs' i shoot i hock and leave on a fence so they are easy to recover and you dont get arm ache carrying them!
  13. OK I've got my lamp, a lightforce 140 mm scope mounted and a 7AH battery. If I want to use it on my own is it better to : i) Walk about carrying lamp and battery (a bit awkard)? ii) Sit in a vehicle hopeing for rabbits? I know where the burrows are. iii) Find myself a suitable part of the field and sit there? I like option ii) if its any good, but I obviously can't move positions. How do you guys and girls do it ? Cheers Malcolm
  14. Hi John, Great meeting you. Yes, I could have carried on shooting clays all day. The Gun, I luv the thing! It didn't mean to bite my finger. It is in such lovely condition, that I was trying to think of a way of making it look really tatty (temporarily) just to wind my wife up. "You bought that ...... and how...." She'll probably want it now. (She has with all the rest). Thanks again Malcolm

    I've just heard it http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/news/farmingtoday/?focuswin (click "listen again" Wednesday) I think it's good that these people DO get airtime; they can discredit themselves much better than we can! Malcolm PS It's about 9.29 in to save you all time
