Keith a trifle harsh but understandable . my youngest daughters first boy friend . came into the front room and sat his fat ass in my chair . i went out and got my base ball bat and walked back in just twirling it . he got out quicker than he went in to it . HOLLY
PS east end of london see . base ball bat behind the front door . gurka knife at the top of the stairs ( razor sharp ) some of the druggies were nasty boogers . i don't think they would have got past our staffie . but you never know .
I have two girls Keith and the problems are just beginning believe me . as for some of the idiots they date . well good luck mate .??? HOLLY
PS my missus dad told her when she said she was marrying me , good luck with him . you have made your bed now you have to lay in it . a sign of confidence in me i thought . 😀
Thankfully i only got one kid, one's enough. mind you she turns adult end of year.
Good place for kids too ??? HOLLY
If retired, ideal. spent some of my school holidays over there in Yarmouth with my grandparents, my mother born there so part of me is a wighty if i can say that. If there was tunnel or bridge be ideal for work but then that would spoil the Island and its unique-ness. I just want a bigger place where i could have a 55yd target and big enough garden so i need a sit on lawn mower- sad i know. Hopefully that seeing as Boris is allowing Golf clubs to open we should not be far behind, fingers crossed.
Yes good . not a lot of work but good for retirement . slow as you can imagine . but the scenery and air is great . if you like riding your bike on lanes and tracks , excellent . the air is soo clean compared with the main land . yep best thing i have done . good club , not too many in it . house prices are very good . what is not too like ??? HOLLY😀
Good to hear you are well . keep keep like that , you are one of the few people i can still beat ( most of the time ) . i think the ladie in the middle would make a nice winter hand warmer ??? HOLLY
We are all good over here, thanks for asking. One does have to keep the others happy with the guns. missing the shooting, only got a maybe 20 yds back garden, no fun close targets, need a challenge otherwise whats the point?
PS, anything more than a handful is wasteful
The wife likes the Vulcan Pup . so her steyr is up for sale . the falcon X i loved BUT on my steyr it was too heavy . so off it goes , thought i might get a JH or a murphy 9015 secondhand to play with ? dunno . hope i find you and yours well . HOLLY
pS if your not well i will give you a tenner for your Springer 😀
PS the pic is to cheer you up Keith .
Holly whats happening, see you got your steyr for sale and scope, no good or saving for something more exotic.
OK after extensive testing down my humungous garden . slowing the rifle (760 fps ) and using a bigger pellet ( 4.53 ) . seems to pick up the rifleing better . giving better accuracy and windage ? stand by for many wins , or not ??? HOLLY
But Just A Mo ??? HOLLY
OK Plan B on the GC2 i think . gonna try some different pellets in my GC2 when i get a chance . if that does not work . then it is off to SCR for another barrel i think . it has never grouped well since the die 4s ran out on prems . got a FTP barrel that can get put on it . we will see ??? HOLLY
Right on stripping my old 2002 shutz . i found just too much wear . the old boy is like Bazza . "Beyond Economical Repaie " so started looking around for a 2002 action to replace it . might be a job though . not that many about ??? HOLLY
He had a look but too slim in the forend for him . Cheers Keith .
