  1. Does the gearbox have syncro in all gears? Is the steering box cast with ribs on it and no removable side plate? Are the wheel nuts big with a flat outer or small with rounded outers? Are the rivets on the seatbox snap rivets or rounded hammer type? If the answer is "yes" to all these then thers every chance its a series 3 on series 2 plates for tax purposes Im afraid Yes these parts couldve been changed, but thats way too many parts for the dvla points sytem to add up.
  2. Pigeon are vermin, so can be shot all year round. I really dont undertsand the logic of some of our laws
  3. Only 500 real people!!!

    Hope you enjoy it on here.

  4. People can often forget that what they are saying from behind the keyboard is something they wouldnt say in conversation down the pub. I think the board is well run and well moderated. Im Admin on another forum so see things from both sides of the fence.

    Small world!

  6. We've got Beater's day on Saturday, which Im not attending, then Monday and Tuesday are the Keeper's days, which I will be attending. Usually a good crack, its nice to see the Keepers relaxed and having a good day.

    Running

    I used to ride, so that is an option, but I also enjoy running so will do a search on the net. Ive looked on the Runner's World forum and many people say its better to run, than not to run.

    Running

    Ive just started running, Ive given up the fags so need something to do, but...... Ive picked up a back injury (compressed spine, trapping sciatic nerve) and the chiropractor has said running contributes to the problem. Untill my back is sorted and I go back to running I cant say whether it does or doesnt but I'll be gutted if I have to give up running too.
  9. We have loads of "travellers" around here, some good and some bad. They do like to portray a certain image, but thats it, just an image. Girls do have sex before marriage, drink, and have sex/relationships out side their community. Our head Keeper is with a traveller girl, keep your friends close and your enemies closer We did feel sorry for the little girl at her first communion Cracking programme.
  10. Very nice, and when dried will fit right into the beating line. I wouldnt put horn on it, leave it natural all the way. Maybe a brass ferel on the foot, but thats it.
  11. We just accept or delete a new user and can choose whether to notify them if deleted. Gmail was the main problem, but thats minor now, the new lot are using everything and anything!! We just delete everyone now, and have a sticky saying just that. Unless a current member proposes the new member, they're not coming in!!! Were just a county Subaru club, so dont expect a high number of new members each month.
  12. Has there been a surge in registrations since the start of the year? 99% of which are spammers. Has tapatalk been turned on/downloaded? Did registrations surge at this point? Im Admin on another forum and we are getting hit hard, registrations going from 1/day to over 60/day
  13. One of the reasons I take my terrier with me when shooting foxes during the day. If in doubt, send the terrier out!!!!! This is after the shot has been taken. We all aim for the clean, one shot kill, but foxes arent paper targets and they can move as you squeeze the trigger. Better to have a backup plan, than think "oh well, it will die. Eventually"
  14. Having been to a hunt terrier and hound show in Wales, the size of the Patty's made in blatantly obvious they werent used for fox. Spanable? Only by a giant!!!!! How these dogs ever get down an earth I'll never know. My Patty is spanable, and Ive got smallish hands, but it doesnt make any difference to the fight/drive in her. She's shown no interest in the badger sets Ive walked past, and gets called away immediately I spot them, and put on the lead. I have no inerest in killing badgers, no matter how many times Im asked to shoot them.
  15. The biggest problem was the vermin control arguement, as a form of vermin control it wasnt great, a hi-bred fox was bred through the removal of the weak. If the Hunt admitted they did it because they enjoyed it, they would of won more respect from townies. Terriers, vermin drives and the rifle are the best form of fox control. I fully support the right to hunt, but some of the practices are not in the best interest of hunting itself. The dogs cant be blamed, they are just doing what comes naturally.
