  1. Paid agitators,it has been said that the retirement age ring leaders each received a 25k lump sum payment from none other than our dear friend Klaus Schwab & the WEF,every little helps to push the climate change agenda & eventually have us all without transport,ever wonder why the police won't deal with these protestors?
  2. Check for availability of spares before buying any machine,especially gaskets,if they're unobtainable you're buying a disposable machine.
  3. The YouTube channel completely disappeared a few months ago,i don't understand why,it was brilliant!,i've met Vinnie Jones on a shoot,a passionate countryman & a good shot,the banter that day was excellent,a different day on the same shoot i also met Gordon Ramsay,not such a good shot but a good laugh. I know that Simon the stickmakers workshop was broken into after the airing of the Crafty Countryman videos,i wonder if that incident played any part in the channel being taken down.
  4. I've been suffering a menopausal MONSTER for past 3 years!,it's turned what was a beautiful slim kind hearted & pleasant woman into an overweight skin tagged hot sweaty foul tempered goddamned gorilla!,an absolute bloody nightmare!,she's refusing HRT because of the health risks,i agree with her on that but something needs done,luckily she doesn't live with me,we'd be seperated by now if she did,she lives only a few streets away & that's now proving to be too close for comfort at the best of times,how long does this sh#t last?!
  5. DO NOT buy the Foodsaver V3840 from Lakeland (or anywhere else),spare gaskets are not available for them,had i have known that i wouldn't have bought one from Lakeland,overall it's a good machine & it has served me well but it's now losing suction so i'm going to have to buy a complete new machine.
  6. H&N bought over Prometheus & re-badged the Defiants as H&N Sniper Light then for unbeknown reasons stopped producing them completely,i contacted H&N a few years ago asking why & they couldn't give a definitive reason,i'm now using Falcon Accuracy Plus,my R10 Mk2 (now Ratworks tuned) is very accurate with the Falcons.
  7. Get with the programme guys. What we are witnessing is a WEF orchestrated full-on invasion,deliberate & devisive! Johnson,Truss,Sunak,Macron,all WEF puppets. Regardless of what any home secretary may promise it will never come to any fruition,yes they might manage somehow to deport a few but it won't last,smoke,mirrors & pantomime. For as long as Klaus Scwab is running WEFminster it's only ever going to get worse. R.I.P Great Britian!
  8. I've never needed to touch the turrets on my R10 either,i personally wouldn't have an un-regged PCP,i like to try & keep things simple,i'm at ease knowing i don't have to worry about the 'sweet spot',the less i've got to worry about the better,a simple thing like pellet testing recently proved enough to fry my head,waiting for calm evenings or weekends,testing loads of pellets,narrowing it down,deciding on a brand,size & weight then realising the pellets i want are near impossible to obtain!,big thank you to H&N for buying over Prometheus & halting production of Defiants/Sniper Light!,anyway,i'm about to mail order a couple of thousand Falcon Accuracy Plus at an eye watering price 😭
  9. Yes,dehydrators are the way to go,plenty available these days & a good investment,i also use mine for venison & goose jerky & occasionally herbs & 'sundried' tomatoes,i store my porcini in airtight containers lined with kitchen towel & a few small sachets of silica thrown in,never had any issues,pointless vac-packing them,you'd only have to cut the bag open then re-pack them again everytime you used them unless you were dealing with very large volumes. I don't read books so can't recommend any but i've found this Youtube channel that looks very good for info.... https://www.youtube.com/c/WildFoodUK1/videos
  10. Very nice but i bet it's bloody expensive!,it certainly appeals to me more than the side lever version,i wonder if the revamped regulator will prove to be more reliable than BSA's previous efforts?,my R10 reg **** itself at the start of the year hence the rifle was shipped off to Ratworks,wouldn't part with it now. You're not keen on regulated PCP's then @Ultrastu?
  11. I've collected mushrooms for around 40+ years,i'm not really interested in the more 'exotic' varieties,i really only focus on boletus (ceps,birch bolete & bay bolete),hedgehog fungus,chanterelle & winter chanterelle (not too fussed about the chanterelles these days),horse mushroom,field mushroom,parasol mushroom & sometimes cauliflower fungus,there was a time when i had a few hoteliers that would regulary buy mushrooms from me but that fazed out over the years mainly due to health & safety regs,these days i really only gather for myself,i've always got a good supply of dried porcini,they store very well if done correctly & the flavour they put in stews,casseroles & sauces etc is absolutely awesome,if i was to choose a favourite it would be the hedgehog,simply delicious,one fungus i have never found is the sulphur polypore or 'chicken of the woods',i'm too far north for them i reckon,seemingly quite common in England (?). For many years i have also harvested,processed & regulary consumed birch chaga,i drink chaga coffee nearly every day of the week (& no,it has nothing whatsoever in common with liberty cap tea! 🤪 🤣) before the advent of the internet it was quite obscure but these days there's no shortage of it for sale if you're prepared to pay silly money for it. For anyone that enjoys mushrooms i'd highly recommend you familiarize yourself with porcini/ceps & how to dry & store them,they're very distinguable & not too difficult to find (unless the foreigners beat you to it!),once you've mastered this & start using them in cooking you'll never look back.
  12. Yes i know,refer to my post on page one of this thread,for as long as it's possible for me i'm willing to travel & buy my Stone Deads direct from George.
  13. I've completely given up with the Hull Superfast Pigeon,first day back on the pigeons using the Stone Deads had me 16 kills for 24 shots,some complete misses & a couple of second shot kills,lesson learnt,try before you buy!
  14. Spoke to the farmer regarding the mustard,he's planted it as both a soil improver & animal feed,i've had a few pigeons over it already,can't see it being 5 - 6 foot tall by December though,maybe he's planted a dwarf variety?!
  15. No shortage of pinks up here (Northern Highlands),i've had 37 (+ 1 canada) hanging in my shed over the past fortnight,i now paying £23 for a box of 3" mags so there won't be many more for me,it's crop protection but it's unpaid,coupled with fuel prices it's getting too costly.
