PeskyWabbits 464 Posted May 5, 2016 Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 Rather than finding a gullible friend, I have found that a strobe light for checking timing works well. They have a live that you hold on the fence and an earth that you push into the ground. All of us running older cars will have one of these and you other folk may have one at the back of the garage. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jok 3,269 Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 You lot are making me smile like fck. The other night, 2 mates helped me remove one of my fence panels to let me into the paddock, where, hopefully ,we'd shoot the red stink inking thing that took all my chickens. AGAIN. On my way across to see the next land owner I came across the electric fence. Well truth be told, and there's 2 guys on this forum to confirm it, I held on to the Fcking thing and it chucked me a good couple of feet up the field. The twat had it on mains. Geeze don't that give you a buzz. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
