Bad news Gareth, give me a bell if I can help out.

It's totally legal if you state in on your terms at QUOTATION stage. It's too late to talk turkey after you've done the work fellas. You need to nail down payment terms before you even give a price. 90 days? No problem, I'll quote double.

You bastards are ruining my dream. I was going to throw in a couple of Stihl boiled sweets, hardly used.
-
I bet you're genuinely looking forward to the 'end of works' sign on that job Ian! Come on fellas, it's in the country. My TM would be a filthy hi-vis hanging off a Tarmac rake and maybe a filthy stolen police cone if it was school run time.

Hope the Velcro fix works Joe. Pantin kicking out kills SRT stone dead. I'd rather drink HIV blood.

There's a funny story there Andy. My know it all big bro told me I was an idiot for logging a walnut (we actually milled the few bits that weren't knackered), saying that each blank for a shotgun stock was worth at least a grand. The following Christmas I wrapped a generous sized blank and gave it him as his present. 'What the f is this?' he said, after opening his big, heavy present, which he'd saved till last. 'It's a thousand pound Christmas present.' He was raging, but couldn't say anything. It's still in the porch at dad and mams.

I can pretty much guarantee that the highest serious offer you get for it will be a fraction of the price the bloke down the pub reckons it's worth.

Can you not just bump start it?
-
Bad joke mate. Just get comfortable on an HC system first. The fancy stuff will come. You never, ever work unattached.
-
Hungerford? Full autos were banned, not semi.
-
It was pants actually. She had a nasty cough for weeks.
-
Loads on Google mate, both sides of the argument.
-
Semi autos (shotguns) up to 3 shot are totally legal on shotgun cert. My bro has an 8 on FAC, sure you can go even higher.
-
I'm all for that. I'll not be taking Dutchie for a walk there, like. As hard as she is.

Best buy some of those wrist strengthening grips.

Word.

All cumshot. SOME foreplay is acceptable at times.

Not being funny Peat, but that chap with the petrol? His nose would be shaped like my forehead if I saw that.

How's the weather in Chelsea mate?
-
Been there, 1/4 tank of unleaded before I realised on a virtually empty tank. Mechanic mate advised the risk was too great (06 Tranny). AA to the rescue, but did charge me some idiot tax. Buggers wouldn't let me keep the soiled fuel for eco 'fire-helping'.
-
That and the fact it's simply too light, doesn't retain enough grunt down range. I don't shoot geese any more, and would rarely raise my gun to a duck these days. Old, soft and sentimental.
-
Doesn't matter if ducks are over the water or not mate. Lead is banned for all wildfowl, anywhere. (England).
-
Because the alternatives are crap or ridiculously expensive.
-
Wouldn't be the first time new regs have tried to be introduced via the back door though. Oooooh Matron! I'm no fan of semi-autos, but fully condone their place in vermin control. And entertaining trick-shot clay busting vids. Banning lead would hurt. I'm a bit off the pace with what's currently out there, but when it was banned for wildfowl I soon realised that steel was crap and I had to sell one of my kidneys to buy a couple of boxes of bismuth.
