Morning Team! As said, a hot night and awake several times! Having a few days with the old folk in Devon, driving down today! Tinnitus loud this morning! Be good y'all. Guy, Din, Light.

So a standard BSA .177 doesn't need ought?

My Grandad had a love of guns, he was a sniper at Ypres in WW1. Post war, he was either poacher, loader or keeper on the local estate, depending on the occasion. He also ran a gun club and shooting range at one point. I can remember various cartridges etc in pots, ashtrays and piles around his place. He ran the local Post Office too, back when they didn't sell anything apart postal stuff. After he died at home in the early 80's, his children met to empty the house. In the big walk in cupboard/room under the stairs, casually hidden under a pile of Post Office clothing/coats etc they found 6 x Martini Henry action .22 rifles, a 410 garden gun and a single shot walking stick 12 gauge. A couple of air rifles were also present. The local Bobby was approached who visibly blanched and basically suggested that as unlicensed and unregistered, the implications were pretty awful to all concerned, him included! A grave was dug up in the orchard and, apart from the airguns, barrels first, these were knocked in with a sledge! Prayers were said and the hole filled. Later that night, a fair bit of ammo fell into the canal near the lock gates. The next year, the canal was drained to mend the locks and the finds caused a stir locally. I must get that airgun in my wardrobe registered too! Almost brand new and in a box! I am the current custodian as mother has laid a claim to it! What she wants it for I don't know!

You need three things, fuel, air, spark. If one is missing, it will not work?

Up too early! Hydration is the word on the day! Be safe y 'all. Hack, Jaw, Rage.

Morning all, went to bed late, full of wine and awake at 7 with full bladder and wine mouth! No wonder she got up! Various chores and jobs, but maybe an i e cream later! Munchies, Tess, Settee. (Cannot get this one!)

Call M Large, Alan will be able to help!

Ercole Spada, father of aerodynamics in car design.

Morning Team. Looking bright here. Being a hooligan in the toy car this morning. Family duties and funeral prep for the FIL later. I'm super emotional at times and I got to carry coffin at the funeral which will be hard! Enjoy your day, do something to have a memory off. She bringing tea up now. Tom gently leaving Bad Apple Racing and maybe crewing elswhere but he off to the states soon to race his car! Jay, Louse, Roc!

Morning Team. Thankfully, the end of a week! Found a box of books etc from my old tree firm. Made me chuckle at the prices we charged and some of the cheque book stubs! Must all that kelter to the tip as it is of no use to anyone but an old boys memories! Enjoy your day and come home safe! Grisley, Bares.

Morning Folks! On account of a soggy lung, I got a free loft insulation and new boiler from HMG. But I had to empty the loft, amazed at how much crap I 'stored' in there! Plenty of tip trips over the next few days and loads of stuff going on evilbay or market place! Have a good day yourselves! Wife, Runts.

Used to pile on the brash, all butt ends to the cab, using live line rods as bolsters. Double up a Carter's hitch then add another pile on top! Again doubling up on the hitch then pull out first ropes! Before I got tippers, the tailgate was dropped and you held on to the lower levels while driver dumped the clutch and drove out from underneath the load! Or, a side was dropped and we got in and rolled the load off! All the stuff they never taught at colleges!

Seems still and bright here! Goal, Deny.

Morning Team, still here despite talks of storms up north. I'm having a cleansing sort of day I reckon. Teller, Graf, Cross, Whirred.

Still in bed, she got the tea in and is getting ready to go to church with her mum! Bit of pottering today and navel gazing today for me! Enjoy yours! Bugs, Seem, Alone

Awake far too early with jumbled head and beery breath! Have a good day! Sent, teen, airy.

Up and away early today, got an early appointment over an hour away. Looking forward to a beer tonight! Gas, Pat, Show.

No ticket proof needed but they may require some ID or trade reference the first time. Some hirers may need proof that you have adequate insurance like "hired in plant"..... If it is only a couple of days or the odd weekend, go local.... Where are you based?

Morning Team! Had a glass last night and just got up, thi gs to do today keep the wheels of industry turning! Thanks for the kind words, Caz got fed up with it all yesterday and wanted some peace and quiet but there will be a few days yet of visitors and we'll wishers calling by..... Mat, Rough, Act.
