  1. I have brought one of my old favourite air rifles the Webley FX2000, it’s just had a full service and is as good as I remember them. The stock has a few small marks on it showing up white, I have walnut oiled the stock which has brought it up very nice but I can’t hide the little white marks on the stock, any suggestions what I can use on it, I don’t want to strip the stock it’s to good in its original finish. Thanks Chris
  2. Can’t get Diesel today at Alton Hampshire, Petrol going the same way, why don’t they just Chuck these protesters in a compound, what the hell is Borris playing at letting them cause more disruption and the Police never seem to act quickly.
  3. I don’t think I can run my tractor on red on the road but I can around the fields, if that’s correct how the hell is that going to work
  4. I brought a Karl NP 02 I think it’s called, it’s been absolutely fine, no leaks as accurate as my expensive other rifles, in fact it puts my daystate to shame really, that rifle has leaked from day one and still has a very small leak after a service.
  5. Vlad the blackmailer, I was hoping to see someone close to him take him out. The world will never be safe with this man’s mind.

    Shale Gas

    It’s all very well with these eco warrior’s constantly banging on about the future, we have real serious problems right now.
  7. A gas sensor, I will look that up, I gave the car a burn out to day but it’s still smoking, I think it has been standing for a while , if your driving normal it’s fine it’s when you pull away from a junction or reverse for some reason you get a cloud of white smoke.
  8. Not a bad idea, maybe a bit of clean needed
  9. Yes I did think maybe the car has been standing a lot, it’s a 1 owner car, I will give it a blast up and down the motorway see if that helps. Thanks
  10. Brought one of these for a runabout for me and the wife, it’s an s line 1.4 petrol, done about 35,000 miles 12 plate. Car drives really nice but it seems to smoke from the exhaust even when up to running temperature, white smoke, looks like condensation but it’s always there when you throttle up or reverse for some reason, it’s not using any water and the dip stick oil looks fine, has anyone had one of these and was it the same, there does seem a few cases on line with this but no real outcome. I brought it from a garage and they are going to have a look at it next week. Thanks chris

    Scam?

    This is just down the road from me, I don’t know if it’s genuine or not but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was, we have a lot of traffic Wombles popping up all over the place around here, give them a high viz jacket and there as happy as Larry.
  12. Mr Abramovich lives near me in his country Estate, not seen his Helicopter fly over lately but if I can get past the AK47s I’ll knock on his door and ask him what he thinks
  13. Don’t panic, we have Boris and his wife to save the day, no doubt they will soon be slapping a ban on all Petrol and Diesel cars in Russia, that should stop them.
  14. If it does all kick off out there are we getting involved ?

    Liz Truss

    When it snows here every road leading to a main road is covered in snow. Getting into the village becomes a toboggan run, and don’t even get me started on all the verges high with bracken and bushes that may get a 6 inch cut once if your lucky.
  16. Is there a statue of him anywhere.
  17. I don’t get time to drive into town centres, I am to busy clearing the DPF filter on my pick up down the motorway, why do we put up with all this.
  18. This, what a sham this country has become.
  19. Double cab pick up, take your pick which one, I have just brought a D max , apart from the DPF playing up which is shortly into Isuzu to sort the truck is very good and practical.
  20. An up date on this situation, my Daughter has decided not to re home and I don’t think putting the dog down was ever an option for her, the Dalmatian has never been aggressive to people even around food, the incident happened when some food fell out the car at home , the Dalmatian was eating it and the little dog took some as well, that’s when she grabbed her and locked onto her, she is now separated and on her own with a muzzle on inside , the two dogs have been in sight of each other and neither of them have shown aggression to each other but will not be put together any more, the Dalmatian will always be fed on her own from now . The little dog is making a good recovery and has had her drain removed. I have had the Dalmatian to day, I’ve fed her and taken her food off her and she let me with no aggression, she is so placid with people, has been from a puppy, my Daughter is not new to dogs and she will keep watching her.
  21. Thank you for the comments, I will pass on what has been advised, like I said it’s not my Dog it belongs to my Daughter so the decision is hers, the hard thing is the dog is very affectionate to people, never even growled at anyone, it’s all ways food that she is aggressive with, my son-in-law can take away her bowl when she’s eating and she does nothing, if another dog gets near her then trouble but never on the scale like yesterday. My Daughter is absolutely devastated by it, she loves that dog like a child but she knows something has to be done, the other little dog is in a bad way but will make a full recovery in time. I feel terrible for my Daughter, she is a responsible dog owner of many years.
  22. My Daughter has a Dalmatian I think she is 6 years old, they have had her from a pup, she has always been greedy with food but things have taken a bad turn yesterday, some food was on the ground and her other small dog went to pick it up when the Dalmatian attacked her other little dog, long story short she nearly killed her, luckily my wife was there as well and managed to get the Dalmatian off the little Dog who needed surgery and is now recovering. The vet said you have 3 options with the Dalmatian, put her to sleep, re home with someone who has no dogs or completely separate her, maybe live outside in a kennel, obviously my Daughter is attached to the dog and is in a state about what to do. Any advice from Dog owners much appreciated.
