    The rugby's on, what the hell is the matter with you man! 

    BTW; You need to do a better search unless you want live streaming

    Dont watch Rugby, pal. Boring.

    BTW what?? 

    When I looked earlier, BBC, Sky News etc nobody had anything on, only some papers like the Evening Standard had anything.

    The channel I was watching was literally checking the main channels as they were broadcast to see if they were even covering it.

    There needs to be a huge investigation and heads need to roll. A prison sentence would not be too harsh.

     

    for whomever leaked the CCTV images taken from within the confines of Whitehall.  If Boris had any part or knowledge of this leak he should go too.   Disgraceful. Trump like gutter politics.

    This was in the Mail today, see how it develops.

    Wow that looks great. Our kind of food. My boys would have that down to the bone in less than a day. 

    Thank you.

    It was made from pork that was reared by a bloke I worked with, bought straight from him, cured at home. Shropshire living, haha.

    It was probably worth a lot of money once cured, it cost me about £40 to do once buying the leg and salt.

    Great with some bread, cheese, wine, ale.

    It was really nice, I'm thinking about doing another one soon after finding these pictures.

    As I was reading other recipes I seen one for goose pastrami and salami. Luckily I've just aquired some shooting with land covered in Greylag and Canada, shame I have to wait for the Greys as there are loads of them doing the same damage as the Canadas.

    When the Drs said he could have a stroke at any time, I dont think they meant this, haha.

    So it seems they have decided to stop using fur on their Parker..

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-57592599

     

    Surely a by product of an animal that has probably been hunted rather that farmed should be used?? Another little win for the anti fur lot.

    Ive always thought that.

    Even if something is farmed/bred for fur but treated well and the meat goes to human or animal feed and isn't wasted, I cant see the problem.

    Next there will be uproar about leather, fgs.

    Thankfully no, said 10 in critical care and most who are going into hospital are in for less time thanks to things learned and vaccination, but cases across Lancashire are still rising.

    I dont know how many times to say it but case numbers are irrelevant.

    People arent dying in huge numbers so the rising cases dont matter.

    People should stop getting tested to stop this farce, deaths would remain low and they'd have no meaningless headline numbers to peddle everyday to convince people there is still a problem.

    This was mine. The solid rubber buffer on the base of the magazine was to prevent it being damaged too much when ejected during practical. I never dropped mine anyhow, but that’s what it’s there for.

    1911’s are fantastic guns and I found them very user friendly. 
     

    When in the USA a few years back my partner and I, and two other women went to a range. 
     

    All 4 of us shot the 1911 very well, despite being a large calibre the frame was a good size and the sights fairly large as well. 
     

    The other 3 really struggled with the 9mm Glock due to the smaller size. 

    I've never handled one but I love the aesthetic.

    Had forgotten all about Edgecumbe, or was it Edgecoombe? 
    I owned a .45ACP 1911A1 with a Series 80 barrel, which had been very tastefully and understatedly customised by Ferrand Custom Arms, which I used as my ‘skittle’ and ‘fruit and veg’ gun for many years. 🙂 It was still a clunky ( in comparison ) slow to return to battery single action auto, and not in the same league as the CZ double action race guns which were then the trend, but I cherished it. It was fitted with Pachmeyers, extended slide release, ambidextrous safety, flat main spring housing, all of which were browned rather than blued, patridge front sight and rear LPA sights, and I had great fun with it. Happy days. 🙂

    Do you have any pics, I love a 1911, would love to see it.
