We went for a walk with the dog yesterday and the hedge rows are loaded with sloes. Only managed a kilo as the only bags we had were for the dog.. Back for more tomorrow night though,

Evening all Trying to think of something to do with my boys tomorrow and my eldest (11) wants to try clay shooting and the youngest (7) wants to try also. I have my SGC and 12G which is a bit heavy for both so was wondering if there was a school around Berkshire that could cater for them both with gun hire that could come recommended. Thanks Chris

I normally scan around the supermarkets for the offers and found a little soft spot for a nice Malbec. There was one on offer at Tesco called Parra Alta from Argentina it was bloody lovely. Also the headache the next day was quite bearable too ....!

There is a nice little one Reading way called Happy Valleys, http://www.happyvalleyclays.co.uk . Been there a few times always a friendly welcome and a nice bunch up there. Normally a good dog roll and coffee available after the round too.

I did the Woodfords this year and it wasn't too bad. But the St Peters ruby ale I also done was better in my opinion, really nice pint and kept a head throughout.

I used these a few years ago for the wife's birthday. Really good service and delivery from them. They were also the cheapest at the time for the watch she wanted. Don't know of their comparison prices now though. www.britishwatchcompany.com

Its a garden spider also known as a cross spider because of the marking on its back. Theres a few round by me they keep the kids occupied trying to find them too.

Thats better than I thought. I know the stamp duty is a bit of a killer

We have now got to the point of needing somewhere bigger and are trying to weigh up the costs, roughly, for moving house. Just wondering what we would be looking at for solicitors fees for doing this. Any ideas? I know Im going to be skint after this either way!

We looked at these when getting a car for the wife after getting rid of mine. After looking around we crossed to the dark side and found at the Hyundai ix35 and have found it to be a fantastic car for us. It's our main car for weekends going away and whatever else we throw at it as a family and haven't found fault with it yet.. No doubt there will be issues with it as with all cars but for the money we paid it has most toys and does the school run nicely.!

Oh bo!!ocks.

Ok its not the Sportage, but I brought the Hyundai IX35 and really rate it. We got he premium 4x4 version so it has all the toys to play with and for a car in its class for that money it is well worth it. The mpg that they quote doesn't show in what we do but like Kes say's it returns about 40 ish on a run so can swallow that.

I waited 10 weeks then phoned just to check they had the paperwork. While on the phone booked the home visit for the next week and then had it in about 7days

Singleton, Cardhu, Glemorangie and Grouse for me. Bloody stuff evaporates in my cupboard though....!

If your close enough have you tried Bisley shooting ground in Surrey?
