Brave man Jokes What's the definition of the bravest man in the world?? 1) The man who comes home drunk, covered in lipstick and smelling of perfume, then slaps his wife on the backside and says: "You're next, fatty." ******************************************************* 2) Man walks into the bedroom with a sheep under his arm while his wife is lying in bed reading. Man says: "This is the pig I have sex with when you've got a headache." Wife replies: "I think you'll find that is a sheep." Man replies: "I think you'll find I was talking to the sheep." ******************************** 3) A man walks into his bedroom and sees his wife packing a suitcase. He asks, "What are you doing?" she answers, "I'm moving to London. I heard prostitutes there get paid £400 for doing what I do for you for free." Later that night, on her way out, the wife walks into the bedroom and sees her husband packing his suitcase. When she asks him where he's going, he replies, "I'm coming too I want to see how you live on £800 a year". ********************************* A woman was shopping at her local supermarket where she selected: 2 litres of low fat milk, a carton of eggs, 2 litres of orange juice, a head of lettuce, half a dozen tomatoes, a 500g jar of coffee, a 250g pack of bacon. As she was unloading her items on the conveyor belt to check out, a drunk standing behind her watched as she placed the items in front of the cashier. While the cashier was ringing up her purchases, the drunk calmly stated," You must be single." The woman was a bit startled by this proclamation, but she was intrigued by the derelict's intuition, since she was indeed single. She looked at her six items on the belt and saw nothing particularly unusual about her selections that could have tipped off the Drunk to her marital status. Curiosity getting the better of her, she said, "Well, you know what, you're absolutely correct. But how on earth did you know that?" The drunk replied, "Cos you're ugly."

Most clay grouds I shoot on restrict the cartridges to 28gms and 7.5. Some specify fiber wad only as well.

Have you changed your background picture or screen saver to a photo you might have taken, a very high res photo as a background or screen saver as this can cause performance problems. Try setting the background to NONE or use the default value. Does the PC run ok once you have got it booted.

Have you added or upgraded any software recently ?

I dont know if you can get it here but I got 1" high vis vinyl tape on a reel when I was in the US. Got it in Walmart of all places.......I think they call it marker tape......

What the hell is happening to this country, so the government wants my wife to pay per mile to get to school to teach the children, the money isnt that great, so how long before it becomes too expensive to travel to work and cheaper to stay at home. My wives school is just 6 miles from home but would require two buses and an hour to get there..... The same goes for all essential services, police, fire, nurses, ambulace drivers, in fact a frien of mine works as a medic for London Ambulance Service and does, as you would expect shift work, and she has to pay the the congestion charge to get to the depot at Waterloo. Come the revolution....... I must admit I am seriously miffed and may well support the Veritas Party, lets hope they have a candidate here in kent.

re giving up your British Passport Is that still the case seeing as they are now part of the enlarged EU. Sounds like a good play to spend lots of time in retirement.....

I have two safes, one for guns and one for the shells and other valuables. I do take the point that Henry D made about the "big bang" if there is a fire but have to balance the risks against consequences. As for gun insurance, most home content policies will cover items upto a certain value under their standard terms you only need to specify items above that value if you want them covered. Unless your guns fall into this catagory I would not worry, but do check your policy for your own limit. As an example, when I had an accident on my motorbike, the bike insurance covered the bike itself but not the leathers or helmet, I claimed for these on my house policy with no problem. Hope this helps.....

This might be too late to add any value but I had a similar problem at my previous house, not the fact I couldnt alter it but the fact that I had trouble finding a suitably solid wall to mount the cabinet to that was out of sight to the casual visitor. I didnt want to use the loft, not enough room to move about without cracking your head on something. All the floors on the ground floor were concrete screeding so I bought a 2 gun breakdown cabinet and installed it horizontally and fixed the back of it to the concrete floor in the copboard under the stairs. No problems with the FO and it worked for me. Good luck.....

Three basic rules you should follow..... 1) Introduce yourself Experience References Insurance etc 2) Tell them what you want/are after 3) Sell them the benefits Controlling and managing the population Conservation Free service etc Keep it brief as well, try to keep it to one sheet of A4......

Dave, yes that is what I am saying, she is 16 and lives at the same address as me, so "her" gun is secured in my cabinet, basically we share the security arrangements and all our guns, hers and mine are in the same safe. As long as she does not have "permenant access to the safe" i.e. her own key then the guns do not need to go on her certificate. This setup makes it so much easier (and legal) if she goes shooting without me and is in posession of a gun. Sometimes my dad takes her (he is also a cert holder so that in itself would be ok anyway) but sometimes my wife (who is not a cert holder) takes her, and if my daughter didnt have a cert they would be breaking the law. There are probably easier ways to do it but this method works for us.

I had the very same issue when my daugher got her own SGC. What my FO told me was that "only authorised people may have access to the guns" where authrosied people are those with the guns listed on their own license. What this basically means is that for my daughter to have keys to the cabinet all the guns stored in the safe must be on her ticket as well as my own. What the FO advised us to do was to have the guns only on my ticket and none on my daughters. How does this work, well you are allowed to "lend a gun" for upto 72 hours to a certificate holder without recording this on their SCG. So basically I simple lend her the key to the cabinet so she can "borrow" the gun, use it, and return it to the safe after use. As for hiding the keys, again, the key message is that "unauthrosied persons may not access the guns in the safe". To satisify this I simply keep them on me at all times or in my "draw full of ****" when I am at home. Whenever I leave the house, the key comes with me so no-one can gain access to the guns without my knowledge. I hope this infiormation helps.

Can do.....

I have a multichoke and I use 1/4 in both barrels on 32g no6 does for most things if they are in range. I also carry a few No3 for just in case i bump into charlie, but again limit the shot to 30yards. I would rather let the quarry get away that wound it. You could use 1/2 chokes but then you may well pepper the pigeons at closer ranges and make then unedible. Bradders.

My daughter who is 5'3" (age 16) shoots with a 12g Benelli Beccaccia (Woodcock) semi with 24gm loads, there is no noticable recoil with these shells, the gun only weighs 6 1/4 pounds. The barrel is 24" which seems short but the magazine is only 2 shells long so it does not look everly long under the barrel. Once the gun is in your hands it feel and shoot fine. Only problem for a leftie would be the shells being ejected across the face unless you can get a left handed self loader which may be tricky unless you but new. Good luck.....

I shoot clays on a regular basis, maybe twice a month but I only shoot the live pigeons on a very irregular basis, lack of land being the main reason....Although I was in a game syndicate for a few years till the channel tunnel rail link went through it!! Anyway, to get to the point, my problem is I am a much bettter shot when I dont have time to "think" about the bird. My percentage hit rate is much better at clays because the shooting is almost instinctive where practices and a good gun mount works wonders, i start with the gun just out of the shoulder then mount when I see the target, with gun up I have trouble spotting the clay. Live quarry on the other hand, I find that I have far to much time to spot, mount, aim, aim, aim and miss !!! basically I am thinking about the shot far too much rather than using "instinct". I find I am much more successful if I leave the whole thing as late as possible rather than track the bird from way out.

I use AVAST anti virus software, it has never given me any probems, not had an infection !! since I started using it. best of all it is free for home users and very easy to install and use.
