Get yourself a photo resizer for free, really easy it just copies your pic and you choose what size kb you need so you can post your pics.
Is the hide going to used as a rug or going up on your wall?

How many shots do you imagine that you will need? - most people find 60-70 plenty, if not more than, enough - be interesting to ask all forum members
how many times they have run out of air? With the exception of "branching" Rooks or a heavy Ratting session (and ,by God, you're glad of a break shooting Rats) I doubt that it's even a concern to experienced shooters.
I've got a large and small buddy bottle supposed to be 150 and 301 shots, just buying a webley Axsor which is going to give around 80 shots, can't imagine running out of air on a normal session, but because there is no gauge on the buddy bottles it is easy to forget over a few weeks or months where your upto.

I was talking to a jockey / trainer in Euxton back in spring and he said there were reds around there 30 years ago when he first came over from Ireland.

So what was the program?

I imagine there's a lot of stuff? The steam train station at Preston has a good display, then there is lakeland motor museum, and I imagine there are lots of similar places about, but think its a long shot it all staying in one place.

What don't you understand scully? As suburban shooter has said there not accepting any more comments on this, and I know for a fact that SS is heavily involved in grey squirrel control and in a very knowledgeable position to reply with accurate information.
I went through the comments page giving thumbs up to the sensible posts and downs to the poor wrong ones.

Countryside Alliance did raise it, I had emails off them asking for members of NT to vote, and to tell or ask others to vote as well.
I can well imagine most people dumping the "rubbish" that came with there magazine.

Probably because the media make it out to be rich toffs and conservatives charging around on horse back, but we know this already, and like you say John most folk really don't care as it doesn't affect them.

Yes you need a new camera these shots are terrible???
Are you convincing us or the missis
Very nice

According to the Sunday people, 30,686 people voted for the ban and 30,985 voted against.
Looking on the national trust website it says over 4 million members!!
Philippa king of lacs said "this is a shot in the arm for animal cruelty" I've no idea?
Still an awful lot of people didn't bother to vote.

Another shot this morning, but I'm in bad books.
I was supposed to be in the shower, it was blowing a hooly out but had a look outside and there is a squirrel on the suet log, rifle out, gone! Then its running about, then another one appears and they chase each other into next door.
Then another pops up onto the peanuts after having a look about, its still, extended, back of the head facing me, pop!
Didn't realise the misses was watching it while she did the pots thinking it was safe, she thought the wind had blown it off the feeder 🙄

You could sell the divers bottle if your not using it.
My rapid did next to nothing for years, but now she's back out and never missed a beat.
Might be you need an air rifle at some point and you'll miss her, don't do it I'm glad I didn't.

Knowing my place of work they will buy half the stuff and say they've invested in new machines.

A lot to be said for clocking off and going home, on time 😃
One shift to go this week 😁

After some advice on trail cams please,
I've given up on Aldi ever getting them in again so went on Amazon last night and had a search on here for information. I've read a few folk saying get the £60 ones off Amazon and they do get good reviews.
Now two that I saw were an Earthree £55.99 should be £119.99
And an Akaso £52.99 should be £179.99 both get good reviews.
I would expect these to be better given the price they should be or are the higher prices just to get me to buy them?
There were loads out there that's for sure max price £60-70 was what I was aiming for and its just going in the garden for now.
Thanks for looking

Pensions, I've got a frozen one and another running but only payed into each for about 4 years, I understand everyone says start early but my focus has always been on the mortgage hammer that then you can begin to relax a little.
If the age stays at 68!! Most folk who don't drive a desk probably will be knackered, couple of old boys where I am who are 65 and still working, I'm not sure if this is because they do nothing outside of work or if there pension plans got shafted along the way somewhere, but how long will they last once they finish?
But I don't believe that when I come to official retirement age, probably be mid 70s by then there will be a government pension scheme, its hard to imagine no matter who is in control not having changed everything again.
The other thing folk forget is there are a lot of people who probably only just scrape by week to week so there never going to even think about putting money away into a pension.
squirrels on ITV
in Off Topic
Posted · Edited by Mice!
They have just been talking about shooting and eating squirrels on ITVs this morning program, they had a fella and his mum on talking about how he has always fished then shot and always brought home pigeons rabbits and squirrels and his mum cooked them.
Also a vegan from peta on who managed to not rant and rave, but said they should be left in the trees and we all eat vegan.
Being hosted by Ben Shephard and Amanda Holden, Ben tried the pate they brought in, and liked it, the fella and his mum came across very well and informed on reds and shooting in general.
A survey said 21% would shoot 79% wouldn't which I think is pretty good.
Then after the break more positive comments on eating squirrels with one against.
Very good from ITV
