  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.
  5. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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
  12. 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"
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. Would love to go to the meet, just never figured out where it is held Not even getting into the hunting arguement, I hunt foxes, I love it, but I use a rifle and terrier
  16. Ironic that Tiff has taken the Stigs place. The missus hates him after he abused a Cooper S with straight cut box, he has no respect for other peoples cars She wouldn't get in the same car as him, even if he was locked in the boot!!!!! Cracking show though, loved the 911 gt3rs, not allowed one though, its the missus' car of choice and she is the only one who will own one.
  17. This is the way to go tow sledging. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85FxLsHU8us&feature=player_embedded]YouTube - Swedish airforce sledding fun![/ame] Now where do I get myself one of those jets?!
  18. What was he thinking of? Removing the bolt works for all those who ware members of my club, but we are only vermin and deer shooters (so all rifles are scoped), so what would we know?!! Infact, we have to remove the bolt when we are not on the firing point. The worst wepaon handling Ive seen was by a member of Essex Police firearms team, she was waving the rifle all over the place on the firing point. The fact that is was NOT loaded made no difference to us, and we told her so in no uncertain terms!!
  19. Being on the dole, even for over 6months, made no difference to funding for me. They just wont pay for cs30/31. However, if you can stick over 6months on the dole, they will fund the 9-10 week course, which will get you cs30/31/39 and possibly 32 and 38 Being a groundie isnt seen by the dole office as being a career move or worthwhile job it seems!!
  20. Willow Nice looking pup, but why are you washing it? It screws their coats up really badly (removes the natural oils), I only wash mine if they've rolled in something foxey (the joy of a terrier ) or they are covered in mud.
  21. One of the joys of mobile internet, whether from i phones or laptops, giving the joyous "cant resolve host name" for the IP address and this sets all the alarm bells going. I just hit delete all and dont notify user buttons!!!!!! Oh and welcome Ballibeg, hope you enjoy it here

    New collie puppy

    Very nice, the missus loves him and he reminds her of her old Collie:biggrin:
  23. A load of trees have been felled in one of the open areas near me, no reason for it, just dropped and left. Its council owned land and they knew nothing about it till it ws reported.
  24. The primer is still live, only a blow torch will sort that out, but watch your ears!!
  25. Mines the same mate, I think its the glowplugs, they sap the life out of the battery, so when its needed theres no power there:001_rolleyes:
