  1. Brown sauce and another 3 eggs would be king
  2. Watched one guy, put about 12k down lost the lot over about 30 mins, pulled out a wad of notes and chucked them at the guy doing the chips, he calls over a supervisor, puts the lot on about 4 numbers (looked to be about 5k) lost that, called the supervisor over again and asked for his tab to be used. That was the 10k. Thing is he wasn't even phased. Just another night by the looks of it. I felt sick just watching it.
  3. Exactly what I done but thankfully I won at mid £200s (which in you have to include previous bets was about £500) just to break even. Scared the **** out of me. I have won £360 off free bets but the swines make you bet the amount given in one single bet before you can withdraw, luckily I did I go to Swansea casinos every now and again, but tbh that's for late night drinking where there's no agro, and to watch the same Chinese lads put £10k + on a number. Makes me chuckle
  4. All I use and a pair of leather boots for the fall out
  5. Mike I picked it up today What can I say, that's some of the best packaging I've ever been posted and the rifle itself is spot on Thanks for the targets as well Well pleased, much appreciated Matt
  6. Tbh the photo could of been better. Can just see it, have a look at yours, any broken bits, fresh edges ect will indicate the problem. As far as I can tell you can change them at home but some say it would need heating up first. Impala on here is the man to talk to about pumps. I ordered a few direct replacements from America, ready for when mine breaks on the replacement as my first one went back under warrant, i think they were about $10 each
  7. I had a problem with my sxp with it trying to constantly bring 2 carts up, or, trying the dump one out the bottom depending if the gun was raised higher than shoulder level. After trying dozens of different carts in length and brass height, it turned out to be a very common problem with the mag tube, more to the point the magazine throat (part no 36 in the diagram) Mine had snapped off just a tiny part (and I mean tiny) because it's made of some **** plastic and caused the carrier to be off slightly from what I could see. Check yours
  8. I recently got one for my garage. It was going to be used for the van but I don't want to lift the ply floor yet and drill holes as I've not had it too long. Anyway it cost under £90 for the 8kw lot as eby had 2 vouchers for 10 + 7% off which I could use together 👍 As I realised I wasn't going to use it in the van, I wanted a longer exhaust so I could put it under the shutter door as again I don't want to go drilling holes as I'm in a rented property. An extra £15 for a 2mtr exhaust pipe off Amazon. The battery is a boggo car one but with a spare voltage reader on it so I can see when it's getting too low, I've made a switch for the live so when I leave its not constantly 'on', and when I source a reasonable solar panel I'll have that on a permanent charge cycle so I don't need to top the battery up every other night as it's not in constant use. Pretty much it would be the cost of diesel for the heating. I did wonder about a space heater but the fumes would make it unbearable in such a small environment. So far so good, needs a good 10mins before it heats up, quiet apart from the 'tick' from the fuel pump, I've found its better to have it on low for 15mins, then high for 15mins then back down and my garage is ok and workable although we've only had a few frosts and I've not had it on then. I've been using it to dry my work kit which could take days just hanging my ropes and coats up, but 4hrs with this aimed at it using the supplied nozzle and it does the job for about £3 in diesel. As soon as I can get some red obviously that cost will come down. In a vehicle I bet this thing would be roasting I can see why people are heating all sorts with these.
  9. Won't be long before somebody finds a way to remapped it out.
  10. Had a 77, 77k and 97 and I preferred the 97 if I'm honest. None were fettled tho there's a good reason the 77 still holds it own decades later. I'll get a tx next myself, tho I do have my eye on another sleeper not mentioned but imo just as good, the BSA superstar.
  11. You can buy the kits of eb*y or Amazon for a tenner. Dead easy to do, takes about hour. I've done chips / craters in my own windscreens upto about 15mm. Cracks forget it tho. Only thing I've learned when doing one, is really clean the chip out with a Stanley blade, even if it means removing more than intended. YouTube it
  12. Had one, shot a lot of game with it. Pretty solid well made gun if a bit ugly. Most notable thing I remember was the trigger blades being too thin and it bloody hurt after a few boxes. Also the trigger pull on mine was horrendous, almost scratching internally and far too heavy. Cost me £25 and I struggled to give it away.
  13. Apart from having a best mate who is a complete animal, where as on more than one occasion we've had to cancel our pub crawl halfway because of leakage of *** lava after a raging curry, the worst I'd recall is a occasion where we had a pretty good sesh in town before a day out fishing. What followed the session was a nasty hot garlic chilli chicken curry takeaway. To spice it up, we had some Naga sauce at mine, which is the usual kinda ******** I'd get in a present about Christmas time and never use because 1, it's disgusting, 2, it's so hot it melts your eyes just opening the bottle but anyway we decide to step it up a few notches and slaver the curry in it and tuck in. After much panting/screaming/drooling/milk/anything cold and promises never to do it again, we all hit the sack and look forward to a day out on our boat the next day. Next day rolls about, and boat is launched, were about 2 miles offshore and it happens to him. Deli belly,of the worst kind. With no karsie onboard, his only option is to hang his *** over the side and try and get the worst of it overboard. Great plan, poorly executed. What actually happens is, the beer and curry make a brown waterfall, to which he's not that happy about from the sound of him howling and he looses his grip on the side and falls straight backward into the oil slick he's created. Whilst dealing with the shock of cold, thousands of sandeels are swarming him eating the ****, and he's scrabbling to get onboard while were pushing him off with the gaff untill he's a bit cleaner. I think we made him swim under the boat, might of dragged him by rope a few meters to help and sit in the corner when he did come aboard. Just one of those days. True story. If you want a hilarious story about curry, YouTube The Rock FM, the curry story. Well worth a watch
  14. It's a skill you'll pick up with time and use. Watch a few YouTube clips, watching someone will teach you more than reading about it. Remember to make sure they are all the same length in tooth or you'll be cutting bananas. Use calipers if you need to. 1-2mm on one side more than the other will start to trap your blade 8'' into a log. That stihl sharpener above I seen a lot of guys use, and seems to do good results. I've never used one but the guys in the council did, but they like to leave the rakers on, I don't as I don't do a lot of borecuts
  15. Beach is now open to swimming again.
  16. We've had a lot (step mum was to do with 'greyhound rescue wales' so we always took a few on). Can make great pets, but they can be in a right state when you take them on. One we had, was a ex racer, found in the woods hanging by his neck, badly malnourished with his legs broken (one had to be amputated). He had a lot of trust issues, which took a long time to fix and didn't tolerate other dogs at the food bowl till his end. Another we had killed next doors Yorkie when it snuck in, it just saw a fur ball and then it was dead... Also 'sash' was a ****** in the field, let off the lead, straight into hunter mode (bearing in mind he was the above dog with 3 legs) he was off and wouldn't stop for no rabbit. So so fast. Beautiful obedient dog in your own yard, swine in a field. Lived to 16yo I think, we had him over 10 years. The things racing dogs have done to them would make you sick, if you have the patience they can make a great dog.
