    Tadpoles

    As a youngster (many moons ago) my mates and I used to collect frogspawn and put it in some ponds that the farmer used to own, and nobody else was allowed on his land.
  2. I've just had a £28:00 payment for two bottles of the above. It was paid by George C but I cannot find any details of him. Please get it touch if it's you who is reading this. Mystery now solved.
  3. Thanks. Just deleted it.
  4. GDK Trading sell some very good gun cabinets and at a fair price too. I have three of them.
  5. Another excellent video Simon and some good shooting.
  6. Disgusting. BASC members pay a maximum of £60 (I paid £25 last year) and MEDCERT charge (I think) £60.
  7. A very big THANK YOU to all who replied and have offered to send me som, I appreciate it very much. I will contact you all later on this year with my address details etc. As always, I'm more than happy to cover postage costs, and I've never charged for the saplings I give out, but only ask for postage to be covered.
  8. It's early days I know, but if anyone could spare me any of the above, I would apprecaite it and would be happy to cover the postage etc. As many know on this website, I have been growing various trees for the past 19 years and to date, I have estimated that I have 'sent out' more than 1400 to various parts of the UK, the furthest being the Isle of Lewis. I originally started to grow trees with my late son, who past away almost 20 years ago at the age of 14. I have kept this going and hope to do so for as long as I can. So far this year, I have sent out 38 Horse Chestnut saplings and 16 Oak. I have some Hazelnut saplings growing at the moment but they are only a few inches high and I plan to keep them until they grow a bit more and then send them out next year. Thank You.
  9. Amongst other various medications, I take Atorvastatin, which was prescribed (many years ago) for Cholestrol. When I have blood tests, usually twice a year, my Cholestrol levels are good. I have asked my GP if I could come off the statins for a month or two, just to see what the levels would be then. I explained that my diet has vastly changed and I no longer eat 'rubbish'. The GP didn't agree with me and said that taking them will do me more good than harm.
  10. Burnt at the stake, no less!!!!
  11. I emailed the editor of Sporting Gun and had a reply within the hour. He stated that the person who compiled the crossword probably isn't a countryside type person who does not know the laws. He is going to contact them to point out their error.
  12. ROHS stands for 'Restriction Of Hazardous Sunstances'.
  13. I would doubt that these are genuine Panasonic batteries. In future, purchase Ecolux from here https://www.facebook.com/search/top?q=ecolux lithium batteries Top class service too. The ROHS on the batteries stands for Restriction Of Hazardous Substances
  14. I have the same set up apart from the scope. Deadly accurate and very flat shooting.
  15. Sporting Gun magazine! That's why I didn't put that in the answer and couldn't think of anything else that would fit.
  16. I can highly recommend this system.
  17. Quarry birds in the Pigeon family. 8 &5 letters C_ _ _ A _ E _ _ O _ _ _ 'Large' gundog with German origins. 13 letters - - - S - - R - - - D - -
  18. I'm glad that it worked well for you. Thanks for the recommendation.
  19. For Sale: 24 once fired Lapua .308 cases. These have been deprimed, full length resized and wet tumbled. £15:00 inc postage. SOLD pending usual
  20. UPDATE: The electrician callled and I explained what I would like done. He agreed and said that he will add a few metres of cable and use an outdoor waterproof junction box which will either be fitted to the side of my shed (concrete block)
