Billy. Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 Tea is easy. Careful with the milk, as I know you can destroy a tea by adding too much My tip for making a cracking cup of coffee is to add milk to the granules (about 1/5th of a cup of milk) and then put it in the microwave for 30 seconds. Add the boiling water after removing from the microwave and you get a nice cuppa with a sort of foam on top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver pigeon 3 Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 Rich Tea - Prove to the FEO you're skilled in the art of biscuit dipping If i was your FEO and you offered me rich teas, i would put a restriction on your licence of water pistols only Hob nobs or custard creams are the only biscuits that should be offered at such an important meeting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver pigeon 3 Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 Disaster Im expecting him with the next hour and have no biscuits !! You are DOOMED then mate Only joking, it will be fine mate all he wants to see is that you are not a nutter and have a chat to you about what you already know and emphasise the safety aspect. Just be honest with him, he is not there to try and trip you up on anything Hope it all goes well for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k_h Posted July 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 North Wales application was received on the 24th of May, cheque cashed on the 2nd of June, visit arranged and completed today, should have the certificate within 2 weeks so that makes 8 weeks total turn around for a firearms department who say there very busy at the moment I think thats a pretty good turn around.

The question is.. Did you play 'The Pun Challenge' with your FEO? Slip as many shooting puns in as possible, without getting noticed If anything, he'll notice, not say anything and you'll come across a complete nutter!
