  1. The Sami people had their claim of the windfarm being illegle upheld by the courts. The Windmills should have been torn down as ordered by the court. Instead nothing has been done. The wind farm is in an important winter grazing area for Reindeer. Thats what its about.

    This is a real thing over there. Pantsdrunk - Wikipedia EN.M.WIKIPEDIA.ORG
  3. I wouldnt bother selling them, you will loose to much due to taxus. Ba-doom-swish!
  4. Similar to Jacinda Arden.
  5. MS400 gets my vote. Good all round saw.
  6. Ja! Ich lieben Gro§e holtz!
  7. Because you live in a mobile home, can't you simply "Van-ish?". I'll get my Coat.
  8. Depends on the water temperature. Around here if you drown and sink past 100m thats it. The water is so cold the crustations eat up the corpse before any gas can form that would usually bring a body to the surface. Totally nothing but bones after a week.

    I like Willy's.
  10. ...
  11. Holds more chip in the kerf. I learned it in the states, it makes a noticable difference on softwood.
  12. If you carefully take off the topwood behind the rear sight and post pictures of the stampings on the barrel and Knox form I might be able to tell you quite a bit. Emphasis on the carefully.
  13. Sure. Its the same in Norway,the French and the Norwegians both used "captured" arms post WW2 so that Rifle could have been secreted there by anyone for any number of reasons.Although since it retains its bolt I would guess that who ever put it there intended to use it at a later date. Give the left hand side of the receiver ring and the action a good scrub.Might find some interesting markings. I but the Stock and some ammo are not too far away either.
  14. Scrape the rust off with a peice of copper or alloy and a squirt of WD40.
  15. If you wirebrush the top of the receiver ring where the arrow points. You will find the makers code and year of manufacture. That Rifle has been taken out of its stock and hidden, otherwise the barrel band and receiver crossbolt woukd still be present. Cool find!
  16. The owner of this house was told be every passing Tree Surgeon to remove this big goosed Beech. Then it fell on her house and there she was on the front page telling the world it was only because of the storm it fell. Insurance paid out
  17. No its a real thing. Gives me a huge advantage as the rabbits cannot hear the bullet coming and jump out of the way.
  18. I use silent gunpowder.
  19. Find somewhere deep and chuck the rounds in. The powder might/ might not be ,wet thus inert untill dried out. Burning loose gunpowder is pretty unexciting anyhow. Clean up the magazine lips ( the rusty bit) and sell the magazine. Not worth involving the rozzers imho.
  20. I had a lad tell me the same. He went on to say that most days in the Marines you were off home again at 1.
  21. Royal Marines? One Guy passed at 50 and even a bird has too.
  22. Sign of the times I am afraid mate. Bet he could sort any issues with your smart phone faster than you could drill those holes with a bit and brace.
  23. In an effort to punt his book he is coming over like a twat. If only he had pulled 25 dried ears on a peice of string out of a ammo pouch during his interveiw... Anyhow, I read he flew 6 combat missions? Which if true makes him a dab hand with the weaponry on that Helicopter. But also begs the question of why train him up if he was used so little.
