  1. Your groundie should work harder at work and he wouldn't have energy to pratt around in his shed!
  2. I wouldn't' use it and I would not let anyone working for me use it!
  3. Great video, very good promotion for the company well put together with some dangerous trees!
  4. I use stretch air extremes, very good, a little warm though!
  5. You could tie the big saw into your spliced eye or prussic higher up, this would take all the weight but it does mean paying attention to any slack in the system.
  6. There are a couple of problems with Hyper velocity rounds, 1) extra noise 2) greater chance of ricochet. Used them of fox no problems. Sub sonic do the trick for rabbit! Bullet placement is critical for deer rounds. A lot of people go for a massive calibre to make up for poor shooting. Admittedly a deer would die it you hit it in the arse with a cannon but it would have been much more humane to have used a nice light caliber with a good bullet into the engine room. There are lots of reasons to have a bigger caliber but making up for bad shooting isn't one of them!
  7. North of the border you can use a .22 center fire i.e. 22-250, 223, 222 etc on Roe. Minimum 50 grain bullet if i remember correctly. Well done HF!, did you use high seats?

  9. Did mine at Otley, didn't have a choice of dates!
  10. At least you can break the revision into papers and concentrate on them. Don't think the results will be given until August?
  11. Did all 6 units today! 5 hours of exams, not the best day i've ever had although I think I've done alright. 1 day a week was hard going! As said before past papers are like rocking horse s***.
  12. been looking at that Iveco for a couple of months, what are the company like Dean?
  13. Steve, I have the same dilemma! Have you thought about an Iveco?
  14. I liked your original post better!
  15. Olympus Tough, 10 mil pixl, crush proof waterproof etc.
  16. I have no Antivirus protection with my IMac, you don't need any!
