    Jobs

    I'm a groundsman for a landscaping company, covering everything form grass cutting to tree work to fencing. Previously worked(and qualified) as a greenkeeper for 9 years. Love my job, love the overtime in the summer months, hate the scrimping in winter.
  6. Fantastic programs!! As was knight rider! Out of all, the A-team was my favourite and i still like to watch it the odd time(was bought a dvd box set not long ago )
  7. Absolutely ridiculous!! Whats next, ban st andrews, st patricks day etc? ban our countries flags? Are we to become a completely neutral country with no individuality to everyone else incase we offend someone?
  8. Thats what i was talking about on my post. The scheme they do with us is if they've been on the dole for more than a certain period of time(not sure how long) they do a work placement for 13 weeks. If they do not show for 5 days during this time or walk, they do not get their dole money, and on a thursday they go to some jobseekers thing at the job centre to fill out applications etc. Once they have completed their scheme they don't have to do any more for another 6 months i think. We get alot of moaning and hassle off some of them as if we're being b****rds for making them work, but t
  9. British jobs for british workers gets my vote!........However i do agree about the long term work dodgers. The company i work for has started taking guys from the dole for some scheme or another for 13 week stints each, we've had about 9 of them now(18 to about 45 i think) and so far only one has turned out to be genuinely wanting to work. We've been let down by them being too interested in drugs, being too lazy, untrustworthy etc One young lad, never had a proper job, with mrs and young baby in tow told me he wasn't interested in working and was only there because they'd stop his do
  10. The BSA lightning would be my choice. I had one briefly and found it extremely light and suited to young'uns. Did the job hunting too.
  11. If you can find a nice secondhand hw95 it will not dissapoint. Fantastic gun, my favourite springer!
  12. I always liked these in my 95k. A trial pack is a good idea though as every gun is different
  13. Never lubed pellets before, I get on fine without so don't think i'd bother even trying. Don't like the idea of trying to get more power by dieseling it either, recipe for disaster in my opinion and could ruin a good gun
  14. Yep nice shooting spike. Love the gun by the way!
  15. Av seen a cow on holiday.........It had a wee calf
  16. What a cracking pike! Nice catch mate.....
  17. I used to get Airgun World and Airgunner. Not so keen on them anymore, might pick one up an odd time if looking for something oir fancy a read on lunch breaks at work. Since i've started using the internet(quite a late starter) I tend to just read hunting related things online. Spending a bit of time reading through this forum is better than most magazines as there is so much content to look at.
  18. That sounds fantastic mate! sounds like the perfect snack......I would say meal but i'm a greedy bugger
  19. Nowt wrong with bagging a hare if done right in my opinion. We went through a spell of hardly seeing any here, but from last year they seem to be growing in numbers again. Which is nice
  20. Perhaps i worded that wrong, i didn't mean overkill for the quarry itself, more the situation for targeting the quarry e.g round buildings...
  21. Rimfires can be overkill sometimes though and not suitable round buildings/sheds where the air rifle excells. Horses for courses....
