  1. Is that a new name for PCP compressed air?. FAC air is quiet but not silent, bloody good fun and cheap in 22 as it triples your distance compared to legal limit.
  2. Someone's a bit brave using a 308 without a moderator!. I wouldn't even use the 17HMR these days without hushing it a little 🙂.
  3. With a CZ magazine, the metal follower is the only thing you see sticking out the end.
  4. The cartridges are the illegal to own part, the magazine is just a paperweight. So what are you asking, they aren't traceable to a person.
  5. Just looks like an empty Ruger 10/22 magazine, spring carrier showing at the end. As it's empty it's just a part, so pick up and keep.
  6. Jail time comes to mind, illegal to own, buy or sell without the paperwork. Once empty and fired, you can do as you wish
  7. It certainly makes you depressed about the direction of the world. We country folks might chew straw, shovel shite and stand around leaning on gates but we're not doing a wicker man every week, once a month maybe.
  8. Probably in part because they've been raised to believe those elected sorts are some benevolent force for good with only the best intentions and are somehow better than us questioning mortals. Like a fairy godmother or uncle Warbucks. I'm sure that's how people saw good ole Jimmy Saville.
  9. It's all about the clicks baby 😉
  10. That can just mean they will get the manufacturer to send direct or they need to order it etc. Just ring them and ask, just because it's on the website means nothing until you've spoken to a hu man. If the price is right, I'd rather wait a few days than out money into an Asda style warehouse.
  11. It's been long known about the American corn industry and ethanol, just made worse by our increase from 5>10% in petrol. It's similar to anaerobic digestion, great if it's just waste but in reality it's not. If they could turn waste fats and grease into Ethanol with bacteria, similar to brewing that would be a game changer for all the unusable restaurant fat.
  12. Well as a farmer aswell, were pretty similar but more eco pragmatic than loon 🙂. What's the phrase, know you're enemy. I'd never pay the guardian a penny, but that headline popped up in the news summary thing. Reading that headline reinforces my utter bemusement, made even more laughable after last year when they launched an investigation by the environment agency into the eco credentials of HVO. Granted nothing surprises me, same with when they banned garages using SWOB to heat with used oil.
  13. MPs to hear plan to get rural households to run heating on vegetable oil | Energy | The Guardian WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM George Eustice says adapted kerosene boilers can run on ‘hydro-treated vegetable oil’ and cut emissions by 88% And the madness continues.
  14. Well that's what happens when you listen to an uneducated underage messiah, a false prophet if you will.

    Arb Chip

    Without going into great detail, if it's a smallish woodchip boiler say 60kw or less are not designed to work on wet arb chip. It needs to be screened to remove fines and then dried on for example a drying floor. As burning wet invalidates any warranties and will cause issues with the augers etc, if you do receive RHI or similar they won't be happy either.

    Humm, the plot thickens.

    Arb Chip

    Wouldn't you be a bit more in the know if you had been doing it for a while ?.

    Arb Chip

    Where do you currently get your chip ?, I presume it's currently bought in dried and ready to burn ?. As arb chip will be wet and if your getting RHI you won't be able to continue claiming unless it's dry.

    Career Change

    Maybe hedge you're bets and use your holidays for getting your basic chainsaw tickets before taking a leap from well paid desk job to low paid groundie 🙂. At worst you'll be is a ticket carrying weekend warrior, it's a no loss kinda deal. Once you've a few tickets you could always reassess and see about doing the office work with an arb company, kinda best of both worlds, especially when it's cold and miserable outside.
  20. Will this book be a trilogy series which his kids can use ?. Spare 2 mummy & daddy divorce, daddy becomes likable ish. Spare 3 mummy going broke to be cummunder and chief ?.
  21. Plenty of other safer things to do tho, just because you're not flying combat doesn't mean you stuff it in and leave especially when you're grandmother is the queen!.
  22. Whilst crying they're the only 25 that will listen to me whine about how hard it is being at home in my mansion without the family my wife has driven away. Guessing 6 missions won't include fire support kinda if things ?, Suppose it was a daddy can fly planes, William can fly helicopters so I must fly something bigger.
  23. Why not go with underfloor heating and have a solid cement floor over the osb ?.
  24. I get how they work and why, just seems like a lot of design complexity and things to go wrong compared to say using fuel injection across more of the ranges. Whilst it wouldn't solve the unburnt fuel issue entirely, it can control the mix more accurately.
