  2. 16ft lb air rifle modification ??

    in Airgunners

    Posted

    i had a HW95 many years ago that i put a standard 12ftlb venom stage 1 kit in to that created a very smooth ( action ) but very sharp to fire 17ftlb :blush: unbelivable with such a small swept volume action , but there you go..

    2 coils off and it was just under 12ftlb and supersmooth :yes:

  3. Nuisance Dog

    in Off Topic

    Posted

    as already been said , some cheap-ish chicken or similar mesh and a few wooden stakes would do the job , an hours work at the most.

     

    cant blame the dog for roaming , but you can go round to the neighbour and have it out with them . tell them next time it enters you'll be taking it to the rspca as a stray.

     

    if its just a few gaps the pound shop sells chicken wire rolls £1 each , not much on them but ok for gap blocking

  5. Dog staying close

    in Dogs and Dog Training

    Posted

    Tom - how close were they walking to the owner , i,m trying to do this now with mulitple dogs ie. 3 springers . They all know heel and do it fairly well when on there own .

    going for a walk with the 3 of them can be a pain but sometimes cant be helped , often one will wonder up front or hold back.

     

    i was thinking of tieing the slip leads together to try and teach the one on the outside to stay in place , obviously safety first , just part of their training while walking around open paddocks , i know you can get double slips , its a shame you can get triple slips :rolleyes:

  7. Hayfever.

    i tried to buy 3 boxs of morrisons brand piriton and the bitch refused to serve me , suspecting i wanted them for some reason other than hay fever :rolleyes: , but god knows what :hmm: , stupid cow :yes:

  10. Heart burn and reflux

    in Off Topic

    Posted

    sounds like a hernia to me mate i know you can get them in some weird places it may be a sliding hiatus hernia i would keep on at the docs until they refer you to a specialist.

    this is on my right side , as i understand it the stomach is on the left , or maybe its in the muscle wall .

    i sat here playing with it now :blink: , its sticking out just under my last rightside rib the more i sit the more it hurts , but i cant push it back in.

     

    maybe its time to ask the doc :hmm:

  11. Heart burn and reflux

    chaps -- please read -- does this sound like an hernia

     

    i have this lump just to the right side ( about 2 inchs ) of my sternum area , sometimes it protrudes in a line just from under my bottom rib .

    usually after eating a heavy meal ( but not always ).sometimes just from sitting for long periods and sometimes its there when i get up in the morning .

    it hurts a fair bit and feels like i have something trapped in that space around the ribs but strangely enough it also feels like it tingles/ tiny vibration :hmm: .

     

    i also get acid reflux occasionaly , but that i think is mainly due to being overweight , i have in the past vomited acid in my sleep and also had the taste of blood in my mouth.

    but that aside i,m a bit confused as to where you can actually get hernias

    could this be an hernia in that area

     

    thanks all

    Posted

    any body give there dogs joint supplements

     

    cali my middle springer who had both cruciate ligs done needs to take a joint supplement , this is on my vets advice .

    i,m just wondering what you all use as opposed to getting it from the vets .

     

    i remember vit c was a good one and cod liver oil , gave these both to my german shepards many years ago , but things have moved on since then somewhat

     

    any opinions
