  1. I shot a rabbit in the head at 75yrds and almost instantly heard a second crack after the one of the bullet hitting the Rabbit's skull. There was a derelict shed 10 yards to the right of the Rabbit and, when I picked it up, I could see the entry hole between the eye and the ear of the Rabbit but there was an inch flap in the top of its skull. When I looked at the shed I was amazed to see the bullet hole in the corner of a window pane and the hole was 6ft off the ground. The bullet had ricocheted at right angles through the bunnies head so I always take of everything around the target as well as behind.
  2. Was with Sky for BB and TV and mobiles with EE. Broadband kept dropping out and Sky kept telling me it was too many people accessing WiFi on the same channel in my area at the same time. As it was also happening at 5am, when I got up for work, then I found that hard to believe so changed to EE and I've never had a problem. EE's mobile coverage has been cack and expensive so I've just changed to Tesco, which is O2. When I phoned EE for the PAC codes then she told me it may be because I have an old Galaxy S4 that I was getting poor signal and they had some great upgrade offers. I told her to stop trying to flog me stuff and please just give me the codes. Guess what? A soon as our numbers were ported then both my wife's and my own 'old' Galaxies had vastly improved coverage. Last week I played a little joke on myself and left my phone in a non-waterproof pocket when wading whilst trout fishing which, of course, fried my phone. Called into Tesco and got a new contract Galaxy J5 at a reasonable price and my old number was ported over without problem. Good service. I have looked at changing from EE for broadband but reviews for other providers have been mixed so, for the amount I may save, I've decided it's not worth it as it's working great for now. I'm just not impressed with costomer service reps who try to fob me off with obvious guff
  3. For years of having old £500 bangers to drive then we've finally taken the plunge for brand new motor. As my wife works for the NHS we're able to take advantage of their lease scheme. in a few days time I shall have a Dacia Duster Laureate to drive and I won't have to wonder if I've got the right tools or money to fix it or get a face full of rust while I struggle underneath it.
  4. I bought an electric clipper set for £13 25 years ago and I just mow all over once a month or so, no guards, piece of doddle. Quick polish of the biddie's skating rink and off I go

    Phillip Hammond

    It means he might have to find the money to invest in training our own workforce, God forbid we should ever have to do that when India and the Philipines can do it on the cheap for us.
  7. Just be aware that, as you stand the trap on its end and reach in for the Rabbit, unless you're quick, it may nip at the back of your hand, latch its claws onto your wrist, run up your arm, across the back of your shoulders, leap several feet to land and bolt off across the field whilst your mates are doubled up laughing Only once mind
  8. and I'm sure Dubya believed that the Iraqi people would carry him shoulder high through the streets of Baghdad to thank him for getting rid of Saddam. All of it for nothing more than the power and glory of a couple of egotists, how sad
  9. Even more frightening is the number of men women and children who have died because of his lies and ambitions
  10. But as Uncle Dave says, those who want to remove the 1% pay cap are selfish. course we are, course we are. Now, lets see if I've got enough in me pennies jar to pay for me TV licence so I can watch it on telly, don't want to be selfish now do I m'lord.
  11. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-40467090 Hopefully it will soon become worthwhile making the two hour trip to the beach for a spot of fishing which it hasn't been for a while now.
  12. I use a telephone directory as a pellet trap when I chrono my air rifles. The .177 pellets go through 700 pages so, as has been said, a Desert Eagle v a book
  13. It's only the hairs on a Goosegog that stops it from being a Grape.
  14. Blimey, I just thought it was an amusing quip by Dennis. I never guessed that I may be sparking a republican revolution

    The power of music

  16. I play in a Ukulele band and we do local gigs at care homes, armed forces day etc. Last night we did a gig at a place in St Ives, Cambs, called The Heron Club which is an evening club for adults with learning difficulties and it is the best gig we've ever done. I'm still laughing this morning. Right from the very first downbeat everyone was joining in and some of the dancing was fantastic. Half way through, the audience were handed there own percussion instruments and the musical chaos that followed was absolutely fantastic. The audience of 25 were singing so loudly that we could hardly hear what we were playing. Can't wait for the return gig. I know we have quite a few musicians, and some drummers , on the forum so would be nice to hear others experiences.
  17. Sad that the boy got to the point that he did this. What of the bullies? I wonder where he got the gun? An SGC holder must be twitching.
  18. Laws only affect the law abiding. The law never stopped a criminal from doing anything. As has been said, if the death penalty worked then there wouldn't be anyone on death row.
  19. sorted now, ta. We have a Dacia Duster ordered through a lease scheme but it won't be delivered until mid-September. My Fiat Stilo runs out of insurance end of June and MOT July. It's not worth repairing for MOT so I'm looking for a car/van with MOT for £300-£500 to see me through til October. Anything in Ramsey area considered but I have to taxi my wife on a 70 mile round trip most days so I don't want anything that drinking oil. I appeal to the PW massive
  20. She is suffering from pediadente syndrome. She can't stop putting her foot in her mouth
  21. Theresa May seems to make a career out of saying that she is going to do things without giving any detail about how she's going to do it. She said that she wants to increase the length of prison sentences. I'm not sure that will deter many suicide attacks.

    A little bit miffed

    are you stumped as to why you've been left out?

    Methanol substitute

    Go Outdoors and larger B&Q stores sell Bio-ethanol spirit fuel. B&Q is cheaper than Go Outdoors. I use it in my Trangia stove, good heat and very clean.
