just get one of them Peugeot partner type vans with the seats and windows in, basic 1.9 diesel pulls like a train 50ish mpg and cheap spares everywhere,Yeah but they not 7 seaters are they, I think buying the Renault the fuel economy will be your last worry.they are a terrible for engine and electrical problems see loads spares or repairs.we had a Peugeot 806 with the hdi ,it was cheap to run but it's hard finding a tidy one now same with Citroen synergie. We now got a Toyota Lucida 8 seater be 2 years next May we had it nice comfy car ,and goes through tank of diesel a week doing about 200 m

is the pin poking through the hole and the tube just pushed over it? If you can stick a pic on I,m sure I could sort something out, even if it means removing the other pin and starting from scratch, I like that little fork with flat bands just whipped on tuck and wrap style, I find some of those big tubes and heavy square stuff ok for lobbing big ammo but not the best for accurate shooting with ball bearings, it lasts forever but is,nt that nice to shoot, flats are really nice to shoot but don't last that long and the 1745 is the best compromise between the two,

I have just seen on an American slingshot site that simple shot mark all international packages as gifts, so there is know duty to pay, if your not already sorted

when you say milbro type forks do you mean this style with holes in the ends, like in the pic, if so I normally shoot this one with looped 1745 tubes or with flat tbg wrapped and tucked, not sure what pin you are referring to I am guessing you are using a fatter/square type elastic that you pull through the hole go around the pin and back through the hole to hold your bands, if I,m correct in my assumption a lot of people use a .22 bullet case for that

I was there not a few hours ago on the hightstreet window down not one voice walking past was English and that is true its the perfect model for the European dream, fill all the rented acomadation in the area with poor people with limited communication skills from all quarters of the world,so they won't moan, move every big retailers warehouses into one area, build miles of footpaths and cycle tracks to the large warehouses from the council estates near bye, because they won't need or be able to afford a car and you have modern day slavery, sold under the heading of free movement of labour, i

alright mate hope you got your bands ? I think the reason people have stopped putting up stuff is the world is now full of self righteous goody goody little tale tales, and even though there are know real laws covering catty,s the last time someone put a night shot photo up they got badgered off of here and had to take it down, so yes I think people are still out and at em,( I know I am ) but just not willing to talk about it or post pics, big shame really, that's why most now go on the American sites, were people seem happy for your success rather than in a rush to bring your legitimateness i

I live near to avonmouth now or little Poland as its now known and you can spot a pole a mile off, big lads ,crew cuts and as Kanny said a right flat head at the back, what's that all about, do there mothers give birth standing up and just let em hit the floor? Oh and I have the broadest West Country accent that you only get from growing up in a right rough council estate, I can usually even identify people around Bristol by there local accent, I speak like wurzel gumage and am proud as punch of my roots

the tabbed one I have had square bands on, the only thing square bands and large tubes seem to bring to the table is the ability to lob larger ammo, so I guess it's more a lamping set up, were a short range shot with a big lump of lead or rock is required, but as I said the gamekeeper johns and Bill Hayes of the world all seem to use small ammo and flat bands, ?

In what way ??? Ok let's start of with pointing out it was a joke.....I've not got a £1000 to offer up for a square go. But you've just made £125 bucks out the mother in law when you could have done that for free. Or don't you like ?... Not at all, mate. She's one of those people who just loves spending money. If anything has the smallest thing wrong with it, she'll get rid and get a new one...she doesn't consult me ! She chucked a whole dinner set out because one of the small plates had a chip. If I said I'd fix something for her, she'd go out and buy a new one before I could have a look

Big money maker at the moment seems to be log cabins in the woods type of holiday maybe a few of these dotted around as bread and butter money, and a couple of pay to play air rifle ranges would provide a daily bonus, especially if you had a few rifles for people to use that never had there own, there are many more clay/pheasant shoots even live fire places near me than there are places people can take an air rifle out for a day, plus know ones going to get killed by a flyer and I doubt you would encounter many regs, good luck whatever it turns into, a way out of the rat race is a dream worth

I have done this on a fork I had that was already tabbed up, instead of melting the paracord to form your loop simple tie a knot in it and shove the knot inside the tube, then just tie it off behind the knot,, if I,m really honest with you apart from the saying gypsy tab, I could see know real advantage to the method, I still have the tabbed fork but I cut the tabs off and it is one of my most accurate catty,s , can anyone say what the advantages of a tabbed fork are, another thing I would point out is that of the hours of YouTube videos I have seen none of the top target lads are using them,

I think if you put your age down when answering this, you would have a group of over 40,s that grew up with nothing and had to fix it or you never had one, and a group of younger folk that have been brought up in an age were you just sling it and get a new one on tick, it was called make do or mend, when I was a boy, meaning you make do without it or you mend it, I was given two bits of advice by my old man, one was if it has tits or wheels it will cost you and the other was if its broke you can't break it again

that's the whole thing,will someone come along that actually new him and worked dogs with him, he got away with his bullshit until proper dog men like David harcombe came along and started putting pen to paper, his terriers were bred for there appearance, it was just luck that most terriers back in the day were game, he new that a breed of terrier with his name on and a few books of bullshit would be a cash cow, but is there anyone who is alive today that can honestly say they new him and actually done some proper work with him, bearing in mind when his original books came out everything was l

the dog was called merle, I think Plummer at the time was still a school teacher,and it was probably one fox and many photos, Plummer sold a whole story that was based on total fabrication,he was simply an author with a good imagination, here,s a question, there are still a few old boys left, like my self, who were out there doing it in the days when Plummer first arrived on the scene, but did anyone ever see him work dogs or go out with him for a nights lamping or an epic rat hunt, be really interesting if anyone could vouch for anything he said,

i,d ask YouTube. Mate I bet there are videos of people doing it -
I find it funny that people are shocked by this, both Hancock and Plummer were a pair of bullshitters back in the day, who never done any real work, those same old chicken sheds that are full of ex racing grews are the same sheds Plummer and his alleged pack of Plummer terriers used to pose next to when he was claiming he killed thousands of rats a night, he then went on to tell the world that if you got a collie X lurcher, it would not only fill your freezer but pay your mortgage and carry your suit case to the airport when you needed a break, the entire Plummer/Hancock legacy is a massive pa
