  1. Then let it drop, again its you boys dragging it up. A harmless comment and you jump in without thinking. Let it drop. It was already buried, down, gone, forgotten.
  2. Maybe, but as I pointed out, he brought it up, after it was buried. He had no need to. The job of moderators is not to cause arguments or look for one. I was quite happy for it to buried and have made no further comments on this or looked to have an argument. Why did he feel the need to provoke things. Quite simple, let it it die. Derail or a humorous comment. You're looking for an argument.
  3. There's an industrial town known for it's steel production. It's South of the Humber Bridge and West of Brigg that can't be named on here due to the filter. Isn't that a bit much Mr Moderators? S****horpe is an acceptable British name.
  4. Try Crawfords at S*un*horpe, I've started using them now. Find them fair. Only 1 hour from me at the far side of Sheffield. They're also cheaper than RFDs in Sheffield making the journey balance cash wish.
  5. But YOU brought it up again and now you're backing down because you're wrong in dragging it up. Grow up.
  6. Yes it's above Bradfield, worth the drive just for the views. Be warned though, it has its own micro climate, it can be sunny in the valley and 2 foot of snow on the top. Make sure you have a top coat and some gloves.😁
  7. I haven't and I never said it was, I merely commented as I'm entitled too. Take that as you want. You're the one brought it up. If its too close to the truth, your problem not mine.
  8. Sycamore is hosting its first semi auto day since its change of ownership and management earlier this year. Saturday 18th Nov. I was sent this clip from I think Facebook Richard sets some interesting and difficult clays on a normal Sunday so this will be something differant especially if he puts in triples. The ground now has foot pedals for solo shooters and is £15 for a 50 bird Sunday shoot. No idea yet what he's charging for the semi day.
  9. Think it? Do I have a choice then? Can I carry on using lead or is the use of steel forced upon me? As for other countries, I live in Britain, England to be precise and don't give a damm what other countries choose or choose not to use. As your mammy used to say, if everybody else jumped off a bridge..........
  10. Many like me, may have completed the survey, asked others if they have heard about it but not found it necessary to take up space by posting. It takes as long as it takes to type your response. I'm fully aware that steel is going to be forced upon us regardless of our opinions, however I'm concerned that smaller calibres like .410 & .22 will dissappear as will clay shooting eventually. This is the first step in stopping shooting forever or making it just for the rich. How long before we can wall hang all shotguns as obsolete?
  11. Faster than the police responding to a 999 call though.
  12. Thanks, my mistake, much as I love different types of guns, I hadn't realised it was a semi. I'm looking for an OU, lightweight. Took a while to find a Beretta Ultralight that suits, now, having found a near perfect gun(for me), unfortunately it's no longer made and not steel proofed. I can't make my mind up about its replacement by Beretta the Ultraleggero as it has printed plastic side plates fitted and I'm yet to see one in the "flesh". I'm definitely a try before you buy guy, but like to listen to all recommendations.
  13. Slowly killing the gun trade, cartridge manufacturers and eventually shooting for those without a huge disposable income
  14. How heavy are they please? I have severe back problems and arthritis and need a light gun.
  15. Use the gun you're most comfortable with, stick in whichever chokes you're happy with and learn to use it.
  16. Does anyone eat clay pigeons, cos soon we'll have to shoot them with steel. How many people have died from lead poisoning from eating lead shot since records began, please remind me. Oh yes, zero.
  17. Good for you taking the opportunity to get out
  18. In fishing when lead was "banned" weights of above 1oz and No 8 shot and below(in size) where not included, nor was any lead in sea fishing banned. It was, like now, designed for the other option, give up. Instead the thinking angler used groups of No 8s together. Lead in shot sizes 8 to 12 is still bought/sold and legally used. I'm waiting for someone who thinks in a different way to tell us the way round the ban.
  19. I had two, and a Maxi, tremendous cars. Always wanted the Austin 3 litre but never made it.
  20. Which is why proximity mirrors became standard and a compulsory retro fit. No mirror, no test pass.
  21. Mini, in blaze (orange) with a white roof. Lots of mods. Think it cost around 800. Drove it regularly from Germany to UK and back in a weekend.(1970s) Volvo XC70 as best all rounder, every conceivable extra factory fitted.
