I don't know because I didn't get a gun of my own ( a webley and scott bolt action .410) till about 72 and I cannot remember how I got the licence but it didn't involve having to see a policeman.

Just been into a site today no certs required for tracked loader or carrier if you don’t sit on it with a seat belt if you stand up it’s a wheelbarrow thats not to say shouldn’t have some training we sent the manual for mine to our local training company, they came out and we spent a afternoon showing them how to use it, they then gave us a certificate

Yes there's been a gun license atleast as far back as post WW2, I was told by grandad buying a shotgun at auction and told he'd have to pop to the police station first. He remembered it well, as the license cost more than the old hammer action side by side shotgun.

Bought from a catalogue too if I recall , I had a mossberg slugster 8+1 that had to be crimped when the regs changed.

The phrase "simmering resentment" comes to mind. No-one likes a freeloader. -

In 1968 leaned up against the corner in front of the dogs bed was considered secure . I seem to remember having something I got from the Post Office . It was a small white piece of paper . Could that have been it . It was 17shilling and 6 pence . Or was that a dog license ?

First attempt at dining table. My wife has been busy with the Tung oil. We used the Lucas planer then the Lucas sander both worked well and were easy to set up. Having trouble deciding on the legs. Initially tried three X shaped black metal but they looked too much like a trestle table, sprayed them gold, better but not right.

From what I've read it's Charlie Kray's stepson who is selling them off after his mother died, might take a mooch over to the auction, not that I'll buy anything.

Not sure of the legalities, but if you had to split the remaining costs 2 ways and not 3 how would that fit in the grand scheme of things? OK not perfectly fair but if you all get a reasonable outcome and still talk to each other a few hundred ££ each to cover that other 1/6 might not be the end of the world. If you look through the posts here the common consensus is conifers reduced in height look a bit pants - take them out which should be the cheaper option, over time householders can trim the laurels back themselves. Number 4 is making a reasonable start - could go with "you want them reduced, you pay" - and if you can all agree which trees to keep so much the better. -
Hi Steven, that is one way of doing it, but there are various ways depending on how the initial drawing is presented. I have just put on those as examples of what can be done from basic pen and paper. An initial chat before the survey would be best as I can give advice on the most efficient way depending on the size of the survey. The samples I have posted I would consider small jobs. If the surveys are larger jobs (greater number of trees) then there are efficient ways of doing it as I have subscriptions to maps through software that I can provide. I produce the drawing and send it back Pdf or DWG with the invoice.

I don't think you needed anything for a shotgun before 1968 and even then a shotgun could be 20" barrel, after that you needed a shotgun licence and in 1988 you had to store them securely.

Saw this on the news the other day. One of his relatives is having a sell up and this is going to auction. Could make the lad a bit of coin. It was a first for me too. I'd always thought they were called certs.
-
I realise it says certification at the bottom I'd just never known it was called a gun licence.

Since the 1986 forestry act there is a presumption against clearing woodland for agriculture. Prior to that they were interchangeable, subject to felling licence. Now you would have a problem getting it without a restocking condition. -

No problem, and yes we're one of the home owners. Trying to find a way to resolve this that doesn't obliterate all our privacy and ruin all the wildlife opportunities!
