Gnome of the Woods Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 I tend to travel for my food. Next best pork I had was in The Gun Inn, Findon. Bit of a trip though. Worth it for the pork and ivy clad garden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyb Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) Not sure we'll be able to enjoy the garden Paul... This weather is starting to draw in again now (this week excluded!) I find Ivy rather unsightly anyway.. it ruins brick work! The only useful thing for it, is to hold Xmas lights and decorations. Anyway enough of this gardening talk.. unless you fancy organising a PW gardeners meet ? Thanks for the heads up anyhow!

Billy. Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 I have a friend who has a side line in renting out these. Is that Justin's company you're on about? If it is, I've got to say that was the best spit roast I've had for a long time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 There's a big shop unit for rent down from my shop that's tempting but I just don't think I could cover the overheads to keep it going.maybe Hertfordshire needs a new shooting shop ??

It's a pretty straight forward procedure to get your RFD certificate. If you've got the space to install a small armoury (decent thick wall with a steel door and locks) then you'll have no issues. I for one would be your best customer if you could beat £5.80 for 50 .22LR rounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy. Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 numbers would be limited as not masses of space. How many do you think you can fit in? We had about 25-30 at the butchery night and it seemed a good number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
