  1. Trev, I had one of those, also had really good timber on it. I bought it from Avalon and they told me that they were made by Silma. Never had any problems with mine in the four years I had it but I have heard that some are prone to double discharging. I think it's due to the barrel selector in the trigger blade wearing. Ian
  2. FM, I'd love to see one as well, not sure I'd want to shoot one though, I've heard too many horror stories about what happens if you don't get it right first time !!!!! Until they start eating people or eating too much stock then I don't have a problem sharing the woods with them. I understand the danger comes for old or injured cats as they will find the old woman down the road and her 15 year old three legged poodle a lot easier to catch !!!!! There is a local bloke called Frank Tunbridge who calls himself an "expert" on big cats and has collected loads of evidence but was discredited on a tv programme produced for the discovery channel I think, where they brought a Canadian fur trapper over to look for big cats in the UK. All the pictures that he was producing the fur trapper was just flicking through them saying "dog, dog, dog, dog" NTTF, love to if there were any available !!!!! Shame that Tony B-liar got there first................... Suprised that, as far as I know, neither of the local fox hound packs have put anything up. Got an offer of going out Fallow stalking the other week slightly further down the M5, not so sure about going now......... Ian
  3. I was interested for the same reasons as I'm the other side of Stroud to you, just below Coaley peak. I'm wondering what's next, Boar in the Forest of Dean and as far as Over (just outside Gloucester itself for anyone who doesn't know the area) Now the police confirming big cats. And there was a Wolf on Dartmoor this morning.......................... Ian
  4. Did any of my fellow westcountry pigeonwatchers see the 'Points West' news at 1830 last night? The Gloucestershire wildlife liasion officer publically admitting that there were "at least two" big cats, believed to be pumas, living in an area of woodland near Stroud. Now I know there has been lots of debate as to wether big cats are alive in the coutryside or not & my personal view is that there could be and there probably is. What I was shocked by is the fact that a serving police officer (in uniform) confirmed it on TV. I've searched for a link on the BBC site but couldn't find one, can someone else confirm that the red wine didn't go straight to my head? cheers, Ian
  5. I assume that your friend is going to kennel these dogs outside so they have somewhere to relieve themselves? If he is going to leave them shut in the house for 11 hours a day he shouldn't even be thinking about having one let alone two. Even if the dogs are outside I would still ask your friend to think long and hard about his decision. Just my views on the subject, I'm sure someone will be along in a minute to say that it isn't a problem Ian
  6. Unfortunately, Mrs. Mears dies of Cancer last year, He has three (I think) children though, wonder where they spent the summer holidays? Ian
  7. Farmer, I think the importers are 'Adept UK' & their phone number is 01457 877170 hope this helps, Ian

    Ray Mears

    He is just about to do an interview on Radio 1 if anyone is interested, could be a bit different ...... Ian
  9. Neil, Mrs njc110381? Have you got something to tell us or is she getting ideas above her station? Don't tell me you went to Clive Ranger for her Christmas present? :( Ian

    xmas dinner

    Turkey for me, but we are going to my parents and my mum is doing all the cooking so I can't complain really !!!!!! biggest 'problem' if you can call it that, is the fact that she buys enough food for about 20 people and we end up bringing most of it home with us. Working next week though so I'll take a lot of it into the office and it will disappear quite quickly. If we were at home and it was just the three of us, I'd probably have a nice brace of duck though Ian
  11. Pin, You are a 'puter god top man !!!!! Cheers, Ian
  12. Pin, XP home, with service pack 2 installed I think Ian
