  1. Past hour
  2. Bob . No need to apologies matey . I just walked round the field with the dog , over strides coat with hood up and sweating like a nuns chuff ! ( Its 19c now ! )
  3. Sorry Stubby. Trying not to be over-dramatic. I have got a sweatshirt on mind you. No ragging around in a t-shirt today I think.
  4. I'm no too far from you , more like Sussex / Hampshire border but despite it being wet and windy and dark its 18c .
  5. Good morning Arbtalkers 😊 Yep, dark and wet out....
  6. Good Morning Bit blowy here too...not the same. It's dark and wet. Sadly feels wintery. Keep yer powder dry till the weekend.
  7. Morning all . Winding and raining and milding . Autumn .
  8. I have lived two miles from one for about a decade, want me to spam this thread with all the links to sexual assaults,rapes & murders ? But it would do no good,since your link to the Gardian article and opinion trumps first hand actual experience Here is one link to the time some refugees in the local center blew up part of the housing whilst making home made explosive. As you do. To pågrepet etter eksplosjon på asylmottak i Arna WWW.BT.NO Svein Harkestad så folk løpe ut fra asylmottaket etter eksplosjonen.
  9. Wordle 1,537 3/6 ⬜🟩⬜⬜⬜ 🟩🟩⬜🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  10. Today
  11. Very windy here today! Most likely to stay in front of apartments under the trees for the shade! If it that bad and like being sand blasted, will jump in the car and drive into the distance where it will blow in a different direction! Be good all of you! Peat, Saddo.
  12. Yesterday
  13. Had a few night visitors show up at night on the trail cams, all togged up like feckin' commandos, I set a dozen alarm mines around the place, [non lethal but feckin' loud enough to wake the dead] one of them set one off a few nights later, the rest panicked and ran off in all directions,,, setting off 3 more. never saw them again. found a tool bag nearby the next day, 2 battery grinders, bolt croppers, prybars and enough batteries to last for days. I don't rate containers as they are easy to just cut through the side or roof.
  14. Head shots have always been a contentious subject, I prefer to place the shot as instructed by dsc, If I cant get that safely, I walk away, there's always another day,, for myself and the quarry. I'm not an advocate of long range shots at deer either, it's called "stalking" for a reason. paper or hardox is another matter. nothing suffers if you miss, while dialing in.
  15. Ignore the great white hunter types Oldfeller a good chest shot is exactly what you are after, well according to most knowledgeable people. Leave the ear shots to others.
  16. Rifles you regret selling !! I guess most on here will have sold something then regretted it later. For me it was a Sako TRG 41 many years ago when 338 Lapua Magnum was a relatively new round. Bought it through a pal in Finland as a personal import. Super cheap at the time as the pound was strong against the Finnish mark, especially compared to GMKs price for one. Ammo was £56 for 20 back then. Sadly no pics but came across the paperwork whilst clearing out some crap recently. I often wonder if it’s out there still annoying the people on adjacent lanes as the muzzle blast was pretty fierce to say the least.
  17. Thanks for that, I have a few of those, but my old lorry has unfortunately long gone. that's a Austin k2 I believe, I had a Bedford J type 4x4 , should have kept it really, regret it now. there's some real beauties there.
  18. Fill ya boots Oldfeller.
  19. Probably because they're trade only, give them a call. Might be an option for buying your tyres too
  20. I know nothing of shooting or deer, but hopefully that doesn't disqualify me from holding an opinion on this thread. She does obviously have two glaring impediments, but as well as the aggression she does seem to have a sharp legal mind. There's videos of her running rings around RFK for instance. (Not that it takes much to dumbfound an Anti-Vaxxer. MAHA!)
  21. Because you can buy the skeleton key for £20.00 not found one yet I can’t open
  22. Someone’s boasting on the internet again about their shooting 🤷‍♂️
  23. Yeah. I like the look of the Milwaukee one but Stihl do an angled head which the most artful gypsy sticker I know swears by.
  24. Website says to log in to see price. Crying out loud. It's a tyre machine, not a coach built car.
  25. A long reach pole pruner would be your friend on that I think. Expect to be called back every couple of years.
  26. Probably pissardii because the book says that's a common British Isles variant. There's a nigra and probably some others but if you hear hooves, it's probably horses. And yes, doesn't it look perfectly horrible to work on. Client wants it more shapely and it's getting towards the house, casting shadow and stuff on driveway. The stuff I read made me think it would take an amenity style drop crotch prune (as opposed to any weirder, fruit-specific strategy) without going off its tits with end regrowth and the guy isn't demanding strong butchery. I can see me spending a whole day dicing with death on sketchy ladder setups to do it nicely though. No tie in point, whole inside of the tree like the chokey from Matilda. I also wasn't desperately polite to his neighbour, whose driveway I'll need to be in for some of it. That was a shrewd move. I'd like to picker or crane dangle for it but too much faff (steep driveways and blocking pavement and/or driveways seems excessive). Freelance climbers in the North East with big tripod/A-frame ladders, leather welding sleeves and a desire to have a cherry branches up your arse, get in touch please.
  27. What about one of these, seen one being used. Designed for the kind of size wheels you're talking about, from 4" to 13" I think. TC811B Redwing Pneumatic/Manual Tyre Changer WWW.REDSTONEUK.COM The TC811B is also a new design of an existing concept. With previously manufactured machines, the height below the bead breaker is... Don't know price mind you.
