  1. As others do, provide plenty of nest boxes and feeding stations
  2. Good idea, meal worms and seeds on a flat tray or on the ground near the nest would work
  3. agree I only found out the other day that this is vegetarian! always assumed it was beef Indeed indeed
  4. I think Himsa Useless asked them to go..https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-politics-68895400
  5. Greens have quit the SNP. Oh dear how sad never mind
  6. Saw this today and thought it was apt "It was a lot more fun being 20 in the seventies than 70 in the twenties"
  7. Fantastic................apparently "Larch" is the present.🌲
  8. Wow thats good money, like you say good provenance, Looking at the results from past auctions many of the interesting guns are fetching more than the projected price. It would be good to see sensible prices return. Not so good for you in this case though.
  9. Patrick Harvie, head green person gets more than £106.000 per year and he has been a MSP for twenty years. cant see him jacking that in for principles
  10. Hi just seen this, I would be very interested in any loads you might have, including any other powders. Just seen this load. Cheddite case/primer 2.5 [cut down ?] 21g longshot, SG 16 wad, 1oz lead, 7600 psi 1190 fps. Im considering substituting fiber for the plastic, In the process of buying a Westley Richards underlever and Wild. Also wondering about using little skeeters reducer to 20 or 28 bores
  11. You would think that given the alleged catastrophic climate crisis we are enduring, the migratory birds would be heading over here earlier
  12. I think most of them would agree, perhaps the greens in this case will remain in government but donate their wage and perks to saving the world..😏
  13. I wonder what this climb down will mean for the greens, staying in the trough, or standing up for their principles and resign..😏
  14. Right gents, tempted by reasonable prices and the fact that up till now Ive never had a 16 bore, I'm "investing" in a couple of old sxs. Does anyone have a recipe or two( or links ) they would care to share. I have vectan a.s. longshot, bluedot. Lilgun. Cork wads and nitro cards
  15. Impressive and unworkable
  16. Well remember loading bales by hand onto a four wheel trailer, pitchfork when they got higher, the stacker would stay on the trailer for the ride home, he would get bashed by low branches along the road, The smell of the first cut of hay, "ladies" coming to pick spuds and peas, bale hide and decoys on the clover in the winter, a million gulls following the plough, stubble burning, lines made in the spring when rolling the winter wheat, and the dust off the same wheat after a long day combining without a cab. The very best way to spend your time as a teen
  17. No seems to have mentioned this yet..https://news.stv.tv/scotland/how-did-scotland-go-from-cop26-trailblazers-to-abandoning-key-climate-change-targets theres a picture for your wall..😀
