  1. Driven by Derek Lees so many times and have never had the time to go in. It's not too far so will give them a call, thanks all.
  2. Anyone recommend a dealer around Boston please? I will be relocating this way in the new year (Hopefully) and will need to lodge my guns until I can get the security sorted, so who do we trust?
  3. I got pulled for putting three in my semi auto at a ground once. "Oi, don't put three in your gun" "I'm not" "Yes you are I've been watching" "Well you're not too observant then are you" "You fire two, then load two but you never chamber a round, that proves you have one the barrel" "Come here.....see my bolt locked back, watch when I load the first road, it auto chambers.....hence I don't need to chamber." The gun in question is a Browning Maxus semi that loads the first round automatically. I now use an Ithaca M37 pump all the time at the clay ground, never had any problems using it, it's great fun to shoot, perfectly acceptable where I shoot and I couldn't really give a fig what anyone else thinks about it. On the subject of spent carts, usually, when I enter a stand I have to kick all the emptys out of the way before I start. I eject ten and probably pick up 20 most times!!!
  4. As title, approx size 25cm x 25cm x 10cm. Little used good condition £20 postage inc
  5. Mossberg - The Saddlery and Gunroom Marine finish in a 2+1 if required
  6. I have to say that my own experience with Medcert comes nowhere near those above. I can only say I have no faith in them at all. I started my application in early January. I'm still waiting and I get no real answers from them at all, and that's when I can reach them. They never come back to me, despite repeatedly saying they will and all I ever get is that they are chasing the surgery. 8 weeks after the supposed original SAR went in, I was phoning for updates and being told they were chasing every day. I myself went into the surgery and spoke to them and they said they had no such SAR request. 2 days after Medcert said they sent a 2nd request, I went into the surgery and checked and this time they have it. I phoned Medcert and asked for an update, we're chasing, the usual answer, I asked, given the circumstances, if anyone had checked to see if the surgery had confirmed they had it, we'll do it and get back to you. No surprise, they didn't. So three months later and counting I'm rapidly approaching my renewal date and can't begin my application. The latest call today yielded the usual, we'll call you tomorrow, I'm not holding my breath. Not impressed with them at all and will certainly never use them again.
  7. Lots of S200s still on there too
  8. Had ours around 3 years now. Went from a D3 to this 4x4 TDi 140 Elegance. Tow a bailey 534 with it, copes really well and costs a fraction of the price to run the D3 did. In every respect. Had new brakes, tyres and general servicing. Only problems were a broken rear spring, (which happened before we were towing), about £65 replaced as I recall and a sensor failure, which was £35. Everything on/in it has an Audi/Vw stamp on it, quality of everything is very, very good. Love the shape of it myself, doesn't look like all the other generic, bland boxes on the road. You can't go too far wrong with a Yeti imho.
  9. My Maxus has a self loading feature that auto chambers the first round. It's thrown a few people who see me load it and assume I'm using three for some reason. My pump is bottom loading, bottom ejecting so dumps spent shells at my feet. No distraction to anyone else and as easy for lefties as righties! I much prefer my pump action for clays, it's just a really fun gun to shoot.
  10. The human rights problem can be fixed easily. Keep it, as is, in full, just add one sentence right at the beginning, "If you violate or hold the human rights of others in contempt then you will forfeit those rights yourself." I'm sure someone more eloquent could write it better but you get the jist. Why should a criminal behead an entirely innocent person on the streets of our country and then hide behind the very same rules he showed no regard for. It's madness.
  11. Got mine this month, applied May 2016, so took a year. Wife applied for her renewal earlier this year and got new ticket in a week.
  12. I recently sold a 2nd property and had to pay tax on it. I had never lived there however. My take on it is if you only have the one property you'll probably be ok, but I would take proper advice on it. If you own two properties in your name I'd expect you'd be liable for CGT unless the property you were selling was your main residence.
  13. She had pointed out a ring she liked months before. I dismissed the idea at the time but went back and bought it the next day. Then I asked my in laws for their permission to ask their daughter for her hand in marriage. Then I set about locating a suit of armour. Having secured the use of one I then went to the local stables and procured the use of a suitable white steed. Then, with some collusion from the in laws, I got dressed up in the armour, and collected the horse outside the house. I knocked on the front door, she answered. I gave a short monologue about returning from the crusades to claim the hand of the fairest of maidens and on bended knee produced the ring and proposed. 28 years later and still going strong. :-)
  14. I have a request in to Wabbit for a BPS myself :-)
