Dunno what this was this morning

Now I looked at taking the boy to center parks agsin, we went 2 years ago. Only for the long weekend/3 nights, admittedly in peak time August. £1200. Not a chance. Tent it is then unless I find a cheap deal for abroad

I've pushed the budget to £2.7k. Probs do 3.5k if I had another week as I could transfer some funds over but I'm not really keen on that idea for something that will live in the garage 3/4 of the year. I'd rather buy a 1.7-2k bike and have the rest as a good full service on it I've been predominantly looking at in this order (Ish) Zx9r Vfr800 Vtr1000 Er6f Yam xj600 naked 2010 on Sv1000 Fazer 600 Bandit 600 or 1200 Thundercat Zx6r Hornet 600 or 900 And as a kicker I've seen a Zx12r with 205bhp 😬 but it looks like a drag bike with that extended swing arm with a mot. I know I'll kill myself on that but.... Nothing is local atm, and I hate going into Poole/bristol with a passion. I don't do any large towns if I'm honest

No I haven't I'll have a look

I've been looking at one of these for a while now, lockdown boredom but couldn't really find any decent reviews anywhere. It's on hold atm, I might have a superten on the back burner but if that fails, I'll see if I can handle one.

Right had a Google You should be fine with a mk3 they are standard size. But I'll add they are a pig to stay on, all meteors have shallow groves (apart from the mk1 which I'm certain mine had raised rails). I've got 2 piece mounts and carefully filled a sliver off the bottom to help the grip, and seriously over tightened the grub screws. I doubt when this comes off those mounts will be used again. It seems a common problem with the mounts not gripping the meteor on other forums. I've got a Richter optic on mine, I quite like them but I use it for bashing cans not hunting, the crosshairs are quite thick. I'd go hawke if I bought again. Also I've used smk and mount master, I wouldn't bother with either, stick with hawke 👍

Ah hold on I'm not sure, hopefully another member might help here Some meteors came with 15mm rails, in which case I'd worry about finding mounts first I'll have a Google a min

I'd say that's just a touch overkill with 50mm. You'd need high mounts, and don't know if you'd be able to break the barrel with a long scope because of the overhang. I'd stick to 3-9x40 or even a nice 4x32, as it's realistically a 25 yard gun, tops. I've a 4x32 on my meteor.

My boss is getting rid of the manual 18plate and getting the auto just because he hates towing in manual (tows a 750kg chipper).

Depends if its for hobby or trade. You won't go wrong with a dewalt tbh, every dewalt I've used has been sound and accurate out the box. I've a cheap einhell and I wouldn't trust it to make a square cut in anything over a inch thick. Junk. But then it cost nothing, only some bushes. But also the 'evolution' saws are good as well for the money, accurate, no movement and a handy blade that cuts most stuff. That's what I'd be looking at hobby wise for that money or under, probably save dollar to get the stand as well.

I've noticed probably 1 or 2 in every box with the ccis go with a crack. I never bothered with the Winchesters as they grouped the worst in my gun when I tried them years ago. I don't know if it's me either but I'm sure they are louder in general, back in the day it would only be a hollow 'putt', now I'd put a tenner on it they sound louder (just had a hearing test as well and I'm good 😅)

Received today Well pleased thanks again 👍

Te is a mk3

I put bbs through mine with no problems

Die back (around here anyway) really hits hard when they are 20-30ft on. The amount of private work here atm is unbelievable. Can be bloody dangerous to fell as well. Elm disease is ridiculous as well, out of 1 hedge line I took out 82 trees ranging from 20-70ft. That was within 150 yards. I can look over the housing estates and every one has dead trees hung up, Ash or Elm in the back gardens.

I'll have the second set please on the right Pm on the way

I don't have it but then I have a huawei and obviously the chinese gov is spying on me not the British.

+2 Might hurt for years in the sun if you wear shorts

😅 The cbr scares the **** out of me, it's ******* fun, I've had silly speeds on that but I need something civilised 😢, comfortable and can eat the miles when I go back home, but also be lighter. When I had the 400 it was hilarious chucking it around, ok I know I can't have it all, but mid range with a higher seat will do for now.

😂👍

Big signs on the a303 near Salisbury today saying solstice cancelled... Like that's going to stop the crowds

Funnily enough there's one local Ish at 2k with 30,000 miles on. Messaged a few people about their Vfrs this weekend and no reply. I'd have one but I think I'm a tad big for one 😂
