    Flat Roof Fix

    You're ******* in the wind, I'm sorry. For around 18 sq m £2k isn't a bad price. I do GRP roofs and I'd be looking for £100 per m. Offer to go halfs with your gran, in my mind the money you are going to spend doing it yourself is going to be wasted. No criticisms, just my 2p worth. JF

    iphone 5c

    I sent my first 5c back after a couple of days stating the battery life rendered the phone not fit for purpose. The second 5c developed a faulty (did nothing) home button. Both were 32g versions. I called up and made a stink, asked them to send me a 5s on the same deal and make sure it's a 32g version. They wanted an extra £270 for the 32g so they sent me a 16g instead. I lost interest by this point and just wanted a phone. For whatever reason a new 32g 5s turned up and I still have it a month or so later. Battery life is still **** tho. Experts advise switching off Bluetooth, 3G and roaming to save battery life. I may as well have my 10 year old Nokia in my pocket if that's the case. JF

    iphone 5c

    My 5s is a great phone, until about 3 o'clock in the afternoon when the battery dies. I can't understand why apple released a new phone with such a poor battery life, especially when it's compared to its predecessor. My 4 lasted a couple of days at least! Wouldn't be without it tho. JF

    Mortgage quickie

    Both fixed rate 2 years at 2.49% Or 4 years at 3.48% .?? Thank you JF
  7. I've always had an iPhone so when the renewal came in I went for a 5c. Got it out the box, charged and sync'd it and off to work next day. I had to charge it again by 3 o'clock. I asked other owners and they said "oh yeah, the battery is ****!" Sent it back for a 5s which after 10 minutes out the box developed a faulty home button. I say faulty, it didn't do anything. Waiting for a new one to arrive! If it wasn't for the 4G capability I'd have gone for a 4s on a cheap as chips contract. The 4 I have does everything I need it to at the minute, tho the faster service will be good. Good luck JF
  8. Great news, should never have come to court in the first place! JF
  9. I was in the market for a camera last week, until I bought an Ion AirPro camera. I did consider the above camera from eBay. Though looking at this the footage looks just as good. The deciding factor for me was a slightly different mounting set up and the ability to send videos to my iPad or iPhone via wifi. I paid £120 for the camera and £40 for the wifi upgrade. The app to go with it all was free. JF
  10. Had another day out with lammermuir game services today, 100 bird pheasant and red legs. Ended up with 97. First stand I had 4 pheasants for 36 shots. Thankfully the other guns were the same :-) Another brilliant day with a great bunch of lads. JF

  14. Pigeon Watch never fails when it comes to advise! That's why I love it. JF
  15. After 13 months maternity leave my wife is finally going back to work full time on Monday. We're talking about getting a cleaner in to help with the housework for a few hours a week. Can anyone advise me as to the going rate for a cleaner??? Thank you JF
  16. I asked for a Swanndri Crusher hat from santa and he was good enough to fetch one from New Zealand, unfortunately it doesn't fit!!!!!!!!! So it's up for sale, I'll leave it on here for a week or so then it will go onto the auction site as Buy it Now. £30 plus postage to your area. It's what I paid for it and still in the bag. http://www.swanndri.co.nz/default.aspx?catid=38&pdid=595 Thank you JF
  17. Having "boosted" my dewalt batteries with my welder 6 months ago, they have eventually bit the bullet tho it worked well for that time. Interesting read this, so I might give it a go this weekend. JF
  18. Oh it's a small world! Not strictly true. As shoot captain I was there to maintain the ranks and ensure we were meeting our targets. Two rabbits were missed in the morning from a range of about 15 yards by another team member. For which he took fair amount of flack. During an afternoon drive "rabbit" was called on my side of a drive and I raised my barrels and fire both, purely out of courtesy. The pesky creature was well out of range however I felt obliged to answer the call. As I reminded my fellow team mates, on that same drive I also shot the only pigeon for the day. Without which we would only have bagged 10 species! It was still a cracking day and no doubt we're hooked! JF
  19. Maybe 4 or 5 driven and a couple walked up. They told us the rabbit is quite often the missing species, among others. They had two teams out on Saturday, one got 7 and the other 8. Both bagged rabbits!!!!! JF
  20. I'm in the NO camp. Salmond is a good talker but a cock who doesn't want to be forgotten when he's gone. If, however, I was still 16 I'd be voting YES. I was patriotic and ignorant back then tho. I didn't understand politics when I was 18 never mind 16!! JF
  21. Sick's not the word, I missed the ******* rabbit!!!!! JF.
  22. 280 + vat per gun. Or 260 + vat after 10 Dec without the grouse. 70 head for the day for 7 guns. You won't regret it
  23. Blue hare Brown hare French partridge English partridge Pheasant Wood pigeon Grouse Snipe Woodcock Teal Mallard Missed a bloody rabbit!!!!!
  24. Had a day at this yesterday and enjoyed the best day's shooting. I can not recommend this enough if you're looking for a let day with a difference. You'll find the details on google. 12 species, 1 day. It's yet to be completed, we did well with 11. JF
  25. Picked up a couple of bags of wild bird mix today and a gallon of molasses, watch this space.....
