viking Posted March 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 as you all say you would of done this that and the other, well i didnt i rang the only number i have for the flo left a msg, thought he would get back to me today but didnt, and like i say i wouldnt say im unstable just cos i feel like telling some people to f off, any one would think iv just escaped from the nut house and the rest off you are saints who never swear or do anything wrong, if i didnt have anything to say back to most of you then i would look like a tool, then again im running the risk of half of you thinking your winding me up ,when your not, and enjoying itbut still as iv said before not one of you have come up with a reason why i would lie about it or what i would have to gain, if you can sit there and think im lieing but cant think why, or what it is you think i would gain out of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mungler Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 If I got letter like that I would go straight to the cop shop for a face to face. I dunno, that doesn't fit his M.O. I envisage someone getting down there right tooled up - guns out and in their faces and daring them to take his ticket away Usual disclaimer applies in the event my FAO is viewing <wokka wokka> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pin Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Viking, as things have moved on, and I wouldn't blame you for not having time to take it all in there have been a lot of posts.... I think the general consensus now is that you are not "lieing" but are being wound up by someone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking Posted March 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 beerdor, you can go suck eggs to, what dose a 10 pager mean to me, try repling to the original post instead of joining in half way through and jumping on to the back of other peoples posts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mungler Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Strange old day really. Got to see the funny side - being it's not my problem. Tell you what though, if this did happen to me the last thing I would do is give it an airing on line on the same forum the police are allegedly monitoring. It would be time to be deleting posts and posting grown up stuff or yes posting about how one's younger brother had got hold of my PW account - not asking for a way off the hook and then musing on line on the same forum the police are allegedly monitoring (see above) about how I could be saying someone else was using my account thereby placing the police on notice of my false alibi. Flipping hilarious. Top drawer muppetry. A ring dinging 10/10 on the dullardian scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codling99 Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 well for what its worth,i belive the letter has been sent,and also beleive it could well be of the police to,cos they may well give you time to sell the guns as it obvious really that he was just mouthing off on web site.just hope for his sake that someone is winding him up,and that he s learnt his lesson about posting remarks of that nature in future. good luck viking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-G Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 It's certainly beginning to look like someone who knows you realises how easily you are wound up. They have done a good job of it too. Go out for a pint - um no don't do that. Go watch TV or have an early night then smile about this in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flipping hilarious. Top drawer muppetry. A ring dinging 10/10 on the dullardian scale. Of course, if you were his FEO, and had sent the alleged letter, after reading this "viking-gate" saga, you would by now be convinced that he is a perfectly normal person, suitable to be entrusted with a shotgun, and would be at this very minute be writing a letter of apology and withdrawing the revocation, yes?

pin Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Point is they'd need to make sure they had good grounds for the belief he was unfit to hold a shotgun. People have physically attacked others and kept their tickets. The plod won't take a decision to revoke a cert on the basis of fitness lightly, they of all people know they need to have a good case because if the case gets challenged but holds as much water as a colander they'll look mighty daft and have to allow him to keep it.

I think I'd be able to tell if it was a fake letter or not, just professional experience with fraud is all I am basing that on. If I knew it to be a fake I think I'd be looking for the return leg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's left the room! I think he's gone to get a cup of tea I can't help it. It's one of the most amusing (for us) threads so far for a while. As Pin said, Car crash thread. I'm not certain if this is just attention seeking or a genuine hoax by someone. However, if it were me in this situation, I wouldn't be waiting on just one call back from my FLO. I would be onto the main firearms dept in wakefield or Leeds until I got an answer direct. There is pretty much always somebody in the office there, or at least there has been when I have had the need to clarify or check something. However, purely because this thread is lacking in pictures i'm going to sway towards this opinion for now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beerdeor Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 surely the letter would be headed with the insignia and address of his area head office and i would be on the phone all day not leaving a message this is not a game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
