    A problem thats not been mentioned is the life on the flooded areas will be dead, all the insects worms, all feed for the wildlife, rabbits killed, drowned. This will have a knock on affect on everything. This will take years to recover, if it ever will.

    The problems for rail travel is fallen tree's or other debris on the track, only this week a Cross Country unit was taken out of service because of a tree strike, hole's punctured through the cab. A derailment could be fatal for many passengers, so you cant blame the company's foe safeguarding there customers and there businesses. As they say better late than never,
  5. I didn't think it had been going that long, not at Newark anyway, 1st time I went it was at the NEC joined with the fishing show. I found it OK at Stoneleigh agree the parking and logistics could be improved on, and apparently it has so let's give it chance, well I will anyway. £16 a day out looking at all the toy's a boy could wish for I am going to have a nice day, hopefully give me a nudge for a 260 rem.
  6. Why won't a warped barrel shoot straight ? Will it fire a wobbly wibbly pellet ?
  7. Going Saturday early, sausage and bacon butty coffee, not one of there £20 job's either home made sausage, looking forward to having a day out.
  8. Have a look at those designs for computers.. I've got one loads more secure.
  9. Sounds like a total lack of consetration, possibly a cartridge stuck in a chamber, semi auto or something similar. Who knows
  10. Get the Mrs to ring VOSA and report you for running your vehicle on red, That way you will get dipped and as your getting "dipped" you could make note's even capture the process on video, plonk it on YT so all can see, then maybe your appetite for dipping will be sorted and 12 month old threads can sleep. ;-) Its raining, stuck in board :-(
  11. Sam, I spoke to Stafford Fire Arms not long ago and what I think they will do is, when you apply for your shotgun ticket they will put your arms on that so in your case they will put you firearms on your new coterminous ticket. So you will get your firearms licensed a little earlier. I would certainly give them a ring, best of luck getting through, if I can find a direct number ill pm you.Or use the emergency option on the automated system.its naff
  12. very fine wire wool then a metal polish brasso or solvol on a wooded dowel and drill.
  13. I would also put money on it being plasti, have the same issue with mine. Its clean but still a very slight show, been like it for years thats probably why i miss the targets then.
  14. SSS not a road kill from around here was it I would also agree with Otter, its rudder gives it away
  15. Bullet amount is dependant on what they call "good reason" if you have a good enough reason to hold 1000 + rounds due to possibly a busy pest control chap or target shooter then thats a good enough reason. If you reload then again your limit may be increased as the minimum amount of bullets you can buy is usually in box's of 100, and if your reloading for accuracy then you whant to buy the same batch number so there near identical as possible, i'm about to up my quote as i have 2 rifles the same cal but different twist's so they both shot different bullets. Rim fire are the same sold in bricks of 500 so you find buying in bulk allows you to hold all the same batch number, allot depends on your usage though and proving you require the amount your asking for, most of its a word game with FEO. Availabilty is another reason. Powder allowance i am not too sure about, there is a limit but i think you would need to be a lottery winner to exede that specially at the price its going to. Just to add, if your found to be over your limit bullet wise them your in the mud big time, you are likely to end up loosing your ticket..
  16. There wont be any shooting after sunset or before, its part of the agreement with the estate.There's plenty of targets out to pick out, some wont be seen too easily and days have gone were they have no hits at all. Besides there wont be time for shooting
  17. Pair of Nike trainers, they stunk that bad i left them outside the house, gone over night. They were that bad they could have ran off on there own
  18. You will find the Lapua brass very good you shuold notice a difference in you group size's, if thats what your into. The only gripe i have is if out lamping after Fox's and i loose a case i'm a bit upset at around 70p a go it defeats one of the reasons for home loading. What i have is a load thats good for 150yds for another rifle that i mostly use whilst lamping and i use brass in that which i dont mind loosing, thats all loaded with a mildish load that groups ok with a batch of Remington and old Nosler brass, they are getting a bit thin on the ground now and once they have all gone will be replaced with Remington brass or any other thats cheap enough.
  19. Holding the phone and not using it, thats not fair is it What if you were holding something else could be anything,,, a tube of toothpaste, (no not toothpaste, could have been some explosive, could have ended up allot worse) maybe an "apple", no not that either you could have been done for trolling the www, or eating whilst watching the traffic lights. Or maybe picking your nose, your obviously not concentrating on the road with a finger shuved up you nose. Or putting your lippy on. that would be a good one No as you say Guilty no escape, gallows in the morning.
  20. Sparkie have you still got those yellow bangers ? I'll see if I can get a few more. And 8 x mag will give me a 75% disadvantaged that's too much, so I'll use all I have at my disposal and just shoot with 1 eye closed ;-)
  21. Tut tut tut, at least your not whingeing about being caught, good on you for that. But just think that £100 could have got you a half decent hand's free kit.
  22. Was it me Alf I was thinking of egg seeking noslers this year lol ;-) Maybe I'd better not. It wouldn't be fair.
  23. I will see if i can gets some things that go bang if there hit Oh ! small onions, get a jar of Cocktail onions thread them on a length of cotton they will still be there Monday.
