  1. Hi again TaxiDriver. I have just caught up with your post and am truely shocked. My wife & I wish you and yours all the best.
  2. Good advise there from Walker on the fat ratio, I use exactly the same, either very streaky bacon or pork back fat (which I prefer). Rember there is a good bit of fat on a well fed pheasant that you can add. Loads of seasoning mixes available and forum advise on sausagemaking.org.
  3. I too allways steared clear of P38s until one came up for sale round the corner from me, an ex police training vehicle, 4 litre v8 manual, a basic spec, but with a few extras fitted by the Special Vehicles department at the factory, for a few hundred pounds. Got to be worth a go I thought. It has been great for 4 years now (touch wood!) & has taken me round Scotland with no issues and all over the place shooting. True they used to scare folk, my old man was a workshop foreman at a dealers when they came out and yes, like many new models they had horror stories and people struggled to get there heads round the new technology, but they have been around a long time now and there are many independant Land Rover garages who know who to mend them. Common problems are air springs - not dear to buy and quite easy to replace, Alarm problems causing battery drain - fit a latest model receiver at £100ish or take off the ariel wire (like I did!) and no more problems, Auto gearboxes do get tired - find a manual if you can, much nicer to drive IMO So, I would look around & try to find one someone has for sale that has owned for a while and like I said, find a man with diagnostics who knows his way round them better than most bar room mechanics for any repairs and they are good motors and easy to keep on top off & wont rot away like the old Classic.

  13. I have a pair of Tickets available for the acclaimed stage adaptation of the brilliant Shawshank Redemption at the Lowry Theatre, Salford, on Saturday 10th September, at 7.30pm. The seats are central'ish on row M in the front stalls. Below is a review from earlier at Newcastle: The short novel by Stephen King has been adapted by Owen O’Neill and Dave Johns and is likely to prove popular with fans of the film as well as those who are too young to remember the original format. Based on the 1982 novella Rita Hayworth and The Shawshank Redemption, the play examines desperation, injustice, friendship and hope behind the bars of a maximum security facility. The 1994 feature film, regularly voted Britain’s favourite ever movie, starred Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman and was nominated for seven Academy Awards. Despite protests of his innocence, Andy Dufresne is handed a double life sentence for the brutal murder of his wife and her lover. Incarcerated at the notorious Shawshank facility, he quickly learns that no one can survive alone. Andy strikes up an unlikely friendship with the prison fixer Red, and things take a slight turn for the better. However, when Warden Stammas decides to bully Andy into subservience and exploit his talents for accountancy, a desperate plan is quietly hatched. A minimalist set is the perfect backdrop as the story unfolds in the confines of the prison walls. Dim lighting with the sound of doors slamming and keys turning makes you feel as though you were inside the ‘Shank’ with the inmates. With the film’s cult status, some die-hard fans may not like the fast-pace of the stage adaptation, which takes you through the years inside at a much quicker pace than the original film. But there is no harm in breathing new life into a classic and if you loved the film, why not indulge yourself in re-living it in a new format. The show contains strong language and adult content and is recommended for people aged 15 and over. I would like £50.00 for the pair (plus pay pal fees), which includes Royal mail first class signed for postage. Thanks, S.G.
  14. Ex washing machine drum on stainless steel box section legs for me.
  15. I vouch for this https://www.smidgeup.com/

  17. You could try asking who makes canvas tops for MOD vehicles nowadays, or who made a new top for the icon HUE. Under covers should be at Newbury tomorrow I'm told......they may give you the answer
  18. Hi Some figures here for you that may help CZ 452 16" American synthetic with 3-9x50 scope: 7lb 1oz SAK mod: 6oz Harris 6" - 9" ultralight bi-pod: 11 oz If i remember right, the Browning t bolt synthetic did feel lighter when I tried it, but reviews from others on trigger and accuracy steered me towards the CZ and I love it.

  19. I ran a series 3 Land Rover on Insa Turbo Saraha for a few years and found them very good off road and well mannered on tarmac (not too noisy, went in the direction I pointed them in on damp roads and pulled up well when needed). A friend of mine had them on his 90 too, and has chosen the Dakar pattern to replace them on his latest rebuild. I would have them on my Range Rover but didn't think the speed ratings matched up to its requirements. Good tyres for the money in my opinion. ATB S.G.
