  1. liverpool have made a bid for Rooney after he said he wanted to play in a different league next season.
  2. Afghan Abundance The Preliminary Non-Fuel Mineral Resource Assessment of Afghanistan‎ in 2007 was based on US and Afghan geological surveys and confirmed a treasure trove of minerals and precious stones. “Afghanistan has abundant mineral resources, including known deposits of copper, iron, ‎barite, sulfur, talc, chromium, magnesium, salt, mica, marble, rubies, emerald, lapis lazuli, ‎asbestos, nickel, mercury, gold and silver, lead, zinc, fluorspar, bauxite, beryllium, and ‎lithium.” And they are the worlds largest deposits of lithium. Thats what working class british and american cannon fodder are dying for, the above plus below. In a report last year, the U.S. State Department estimated that the Caspian region's oil reserves of 178 billion barrels, . ... And the pipe-line its gonna flow thru.
  3. THATS A KEEPER. and good advice imo.
  4. YOU KNOW I WAS JOKING, BUT ACTUALLY ITS NOT A BAD IDEA TO HAVE A LIGHTER JAMMED IN A CARTRIDGE AND SAID CARTRIDGE UPSIDE DOWN IN YOUR GUN BELT. ah nuts caps sorry just looked up.
  5. Jam a disposable lighter in them and flog em on ebay for £1.99.
  6. Perfect insight into many breeds that m8. I ead the books many years ago with my first dog{lab} interesting tho they were, to be absolutely basic, you have to break a dogs spirit early, not his spunk, getup and go, but his own single mindedness as you state, i chose to do that at a very early age, by taking food away half way thru being eaten, and making him sit for longer periods than he wanted to, if he lay down i picked him back up etc, if he growled as he got braver when his food or bones were touched he got a quick smack, basically you are the pack leader, and the sooner he knows the better. And constant correction 24/7 i think has a big influence on what the end result will be, i was lucky in always working for myself my dogs were with me near enough 24/7, even the pub every time. I guess i can give up any thoughts about being a pro dog trainer now then.
  7. Snow. You can have my share aswell glixer, that moon and clear sky, meant it was brass monkeys this morning. Even the cat was under the quilt, and not moving till we did.
  8. At a guess kyska, stubbles. They should atleast be hungry still in the afternoon because of the ground frost knackering their morning feed. As i say at a guess.
  9. desperate. Even i waited until my 3rd.
  10. why do you think the yanks are still in afghanistan really, apart from the pipeline plans. The caspian sea crude turned out to be a lower grade than was anticipated, but still all is not lost there, however the yanks have known for over 20 years, and kept secret until someone else recently spilt the beans on the geological surveys conducted that show the rare earth minerals under afghani soil and mountains. Hundreds of billions of pounds worth of allsorts. I will post links when i have time to root them out.
  11. A ton for pigeons a day is too steep. A £ a bird if they bag a ton.
  12. I like that. The owners are in deep doo doo on their home turf, their malls are empty near enough, they needed united for its cash flow, they will get every last drop od blood out of old trafford then i to think they will go pop.
  13. Theres a cat sat infront watching tele aswell isnt there elvis.
  14. Or train him to sit AND WATCH until you click your fingers. PS I never noticed any detrimental effect on my labs being in the hide from 3 or 4 month old with me, or in my poachers pocket whilst in the pub when they were small.
  15. Those black back gulls grow a fair size. Have a new born lambs tongue and eyes gone in no time.
  16. I got fined once for armed tresspass. In my late teens, i saw a load of blackies using a stubble down by what was then the new industrial estate, a collection of nissan hut workshops etc. The land owner and his wife had an office there, so i parks outside his office, goes in and sees him, gets his blessing, and off i go, leaving my car on his park beside the field. My m8 was with me and we cross fired them from different hides, couple of hours later a copper comes waltzing down the hedge, finds me first { i did write comes across me first, but then thought better}. Gets all my details, which he already knew from my car reg, and starts off on his way, but not before counting all the dead birds and taking full stock of our activities, hide etc. The landowner at the office denied he gave me permission, i went down to see him, he apologised and said he didnt want any trouble with the police, so he left me out to dry, a/hole. everything was legal apart from that, there wouldnt of been a problem, even the copper really knew the score with my car parked under his office window, made the local papers tho when i was fined. summat like local youth found shooting without permission, then went on to explain how i was shooting out of a constructed hide and how many birds i had nailed. A bit like the internet of the early 70s.
  17. Chancers. Oops these chancers are armed.
  18. both the 1/4 / improved and half were a combination i used alot for alrounding like the OP, and like the OP i also opted for my little nikko skeet most of the time. would i do things different given the time back, i doubt it, maybe used half choke in the second barrel alittle more often.
  19. I was talking to a dairy farmer at the local shop the other day, i asked him about maze after reading about it here, he told me theres alttle bit of it getting grown here now, wasnt a crop i saw standing whilst i shot tho. A few other interesting types of crop seem to be being tried aswell, we live in interesting times, these crops may change the demographics of species here, i.e. more pigeons, who knows.
  20. I am interested in the modern equipment, as to our home made stuff, so thanks. I am deffo going out at sowing time with one of my old shooting apprentices, not even death will stop me.
  21. what are floaters like on a hillside like that steve where they are low to the deeks by the time they are 50 / 60 yard out because of the elevation..
  22. Look to me like young rooks. Carrion Crows dont have black legs.
  23. Spoken like a true skeptic.
