Hello, Thanks to reply, cannot remember what i paid when i bought them but they were the best for the money i had at that time, i have just tried those binoculars i bought yesterday, after a good clean, the zoom works very well and diopter is on lowest setting, not as good to the Pyser but i did not expect that, still a good buy,

Hello, as above, today was no exception, perusing in the charity shop i spied an interesting pair of Binoculars, sold by Boots called Fleet, interesting name but then i see made in Japan, i reckon 1980s ?? They Zoom, 7 - 15 x 35 after a very good clean up i am surprised how good they are, not up to the standard you might need for stalking etc, a few weeks ago i found another pair, Scope over Field 9 x 35 Made in Japan, Now this is interesting , on the strap were 2 Labels from 1968 and 1969 Newbury Race Course Club Stand for Gentlemen, July 13th/July 12th, Makes me wonder who this Gentleman was ??, This has a lovely leather square case, Another pair i found was at Oxford market, Called WALLER ZCF DE LUX , Fine coated 8 x 40 , Made in Japan, Excellent Optics, Not sure on date, ??, My best Pair i bought many many years ago, called PYSER- SGI EAGLE 10 x 42 Waterproof , Made in Japan, outstanding Optics, good as my Hawke Monoculars 8 x 40, i did have 2 more pairs of old Carl Zeiss , they must have been over 50 years old and good as the day made, Superb Optics, Alas i was offered some £££sss so they went to 2 Pigeon shooters, so any more PW members like me ?????,

Hello, i am sure these City Councils much like Oxford and even Town Councils have a Think Tank department where they look at every aspect of Council spending and Council needing , then find a way of charging more money to local people as mentioned with the Trent parking permit , Ultimately the £400 will be added to customer bills which may stop people from hiring a local trader, Oxford City have just put a car park with a few spaces used by a Boat Club into a full public car park just to get more money, 🤔 , -
Hello, This is one stupid idea and putting it mildly , already people have died, there is a TV programme on this tonight, is there a map of UK showing all the roads with these Smart motor way sections, not that i drive much these days

Hello, i use to see quite a few Kingfishers around the Thames area here in town but so far this year not seen any, i wonder if that is due to the pollution from Sewage outflows that has been on the news these last few years,

Hello, hope you can get the video sorted as looking forward to watching, 👍, There is hardly a pigeon around these parts as fields to wet for drilling so it is nice to see a PW member shooting, i remember Pompey when i was a wee lad i use go and meet my dad off the ship when he returned from leave

Hello, if you have some old shell or whole body pigeon decoys , not those flocks, i bought a can of black matt spray about £3 and coated the old deeks and they work well, never tried Sillosocks but do look good, Tidepool have an Ebay shop £28 for 6 pigeon,

Hello, i would not say so looking at the Photos, The stock looks messed with and what looks like surface rust on the metal, The scope has a few marks to, For £170/£200 you could buy a new rifle and scope, what part of uk are you??
