  1. I believe PU ******** the base off to the point they also wanted it closed, as well as Elveden Estates . As someone else that has shot there for over 20 years, the last time about a month ago (when more than half the traps were out of order) to be honest I am glad it has finally been put out of its misery.
  2. Easily......if you only have two brain cells .
  3. What, you mean like you do a rubbish dangerous job of installing a stove/flue yourself, burn your house down through your own stupidity or penny pinching, then expect your insurer (and therefore other policyholders) to pay for all that? Insurance is not a dustbin for people's Darwin Award efforts .
  4. I just heard. Absolutely brilliant news, it's been hanging over my head all weekend so God knows what Bob must be feeling! I'm not sure of the details yet but appears he escaped from a 'compound' (so probably dumped ), and was found by someone who had seen it on Facebook. I told Buzz's mum (the bitch we bred Buzz from) the good news but she wasn't bothered as she had got fed up with the litter at about six weeks anyway
  5. Just coming up to 16 months - born June last year.
  6. We just heard this from the owner a few minutes ago - the dog was originally bred by us, he's a lovely little dog. Thieving b@stards. I'll get a photo off Bob and post it on other forums.
  7. I know all about that one, take no notice of Witham's advert, if you call them you find it is £14,000 plus VAT. And it will need a LOT of work
  8. Christ, I remember that song from first time around
  9. Noting your location, that'll be Will? Very low ground pressure, the tyres run at just 5psi. Because it is a wider track than a Landie, I fill their ruts back in again
  10. Eh? It does 35mph. I've never needed to lamp that fast Hi Jim It's very handy, ta. It probably comes out of the cabinet as much as anything else!
  11. £10k? I wish........You won't even get an ex Witham vehicle that needs a lot of work for that :( Yes. Around 700mm wade depth, then it floats. It has two bilge pumps, as the hull can't be 100% watertight. Outboard on the tailgate, and away you go The radiator and oil coolers are under your seat. I was out on my quad in -15 last year, it's better than that
  12. That'll need a lot of work....... Mine came from here: http://www.capleatv.co.uk/atv-vehicles-for-sale.aspx
  13. The quad is gone........long live the Alvis Supacat Ex British Army, last saw service in Afghanistan, retired in 2010. 6 wheel drive, VW 1.9 TDI engine/auto box, front four wheels steer conventionally, plus it has skid steer. Very light on the ground due to the flotation tyres. There's a winch under the cover behind the seat in case I have to rescue anyone (or myself ).
  14. Honda TRX350FE ES quad, 4 wheel drive. Registered April 2006, owned by me since new. Registered as light agricultural vehicle, £0 road tax. MOT exempt. Only 163 genuine hours/1,372 km since new (just used to pootle round the paddocks on our smallholding, and for lamping off). Electric thumb gear change. All original, nothing ever fallen off, nothing gone wrong. Serviced 10 hours or so ago. New equivalent machine is now £7,300. Selling for £3,500.

    honda quad

    It's a shame you aren't closer......(I am in Suffolk). I'm just about to sell my 2006 4wd TRX 350 ES. Bought by me new in 2006, road registered (light agricultural class, tax £0). Electric thumb gearshift. All as original, only used to pootle round our smallholding pulling a chain harrow/fertiliser spinner/for lamping foxes off. Nothing broken, nothing has ever gone wrong with it. It has a genuine 163 hours/1327km from new, and the condition reflects that. Recently serviced. Price £3,500 (the equivalent new today is £7,300). If you are interested I can post some photos.
  16. I bought it around two years ago at a good price, I'm just not using it enough to warrant keeping it (I've only put around 250 cartridges down it since I've had it) and so not asking silly money for it now as no point in being greedy
  17. Wrong 1/2 and 3/4. From the horse's mouth: http://www.saddleryandgunroom.co.uk/Gunroom/SG_Hushpower.htm
  18. S&B PM II 3-12x50 34mm tube. In absolutely unmarked, as new condition. Was only on a rifle very briefly. P3 reticle (fine mildot). Genuine York Guns UK supplied scope. Complete with bikini cover, box, manual, warranty documents etc. Fitted with Apel quick detachable return to zero rings (on Remington 700 bases). Bare scope (no rings) £925 (York Guns price £1,728.97). Apel Rings only £190 (new £275). Scope and rings together £1,100
  19. Leupold Mark 4 8.5-25x50 Tactical LR/T IR scope. Illuminated Mildot reticle. Target turrets. Unmarked condition. Fitted with Butler Creek front flip up cover. Selling for an RFD friend as target scopes/shooting aren't his thing or client base. I toyed with the idea of buying it and tested it at 700 yards on Saturday (hand held) against my MTC Viper, Bushnell Elite 4200 4.5-25x50 and Swarovski Habicht 4-16x50 to give a comparison right across price ranges, and clarity wise and sharpness on target at that distance it was up near the Swarovski. It really is that clear. I need a scope to go 1200 yards on my .308, and for my eyes x25 mag was marginal for that, I'd prefer x32 so I shan't buy it. Sportsman currently have these on offer at £1,414 (RRP £ 1,760). http://www.sportsmanguncentre.co.uk/product/954b1901c5df1be142012259/Leupold+MK4+8-a-8-f-35-25x50+M1+Long+Range+illuminated/ No box or papers (the RFD originally saw them, and by the time it came in the chap's wife had thrown the box and everything else away ). Hence bargain price £785 posted mainland UK.
  20. Bushnell Stealthview digital night vision spotting scope 5x magnification Runs on 6xAA batteries Excellent condition. As per the link: http://www.uttings.co.uk/Product/556/100913/bushnell-stealthview-digital-nightvision-monocular-260542/ £160 posted
