bigmac 97kt 13,813 Posted February 2, 2020 Report Share Posted February 2, 2020 Well after all the shit iv had these last few months with my daughter and the big C (she is doing well now lads has her good days and bad the tumor was cut out and all the cancer is gone but still a long way to go) then vans breaking down repairs (not cheap as we all know) a few bad months with work and none coming in and using up money in the bank. A new van needed for my son inlaw (a partner in the business ) then mine needed sorted again (4th time) new tiers ball joints censers and so on then the jeep felt left out so it needed sorting as well running back and forth from home to hospital at Newcastle to be with my daughter and parking (ridiculous the price of parking at the hospitals) money was running low . So i had to sell the FX CROWN put it on here at a give away price but no one wanted it bad time of year i know but sold it any way to a lad that wanted it for his son (top dad). Im going to take some time out lads still got a lot going on what with my health and so on typical sold the rifle and an hour later three jobs come in lol. But im not gun less yet still got the use of the one rifle that has not been sold even after all mine have gone (as its not mine to sell lol) The single shot BSA ULTRA 22 fitted with MTC MAMBAS 3x12x44 Ethan's beloved rifle (formally little hunter) need a pod for it mind hate having to lean a rifle up against a fence or tree when you need a p**s or a cuppa lol Will i get another crown i dont know lads ,,,as the rifle by its self you cant take any thing away from them there one of the best top class in fact . atvbjimmy Quote Link to post

Simon and Helen xxx She is 34 Simon she was told she would not see Xmas But the docs were not having none of it they had a big meeting and rushed her in for the op she is on the mend now but its a slow recovery for her she has to have scans every month or so for 5 yrs and she is steroid dependent for the rest of her life now she has to weir a band stating this. The tumor was 6 pound in wait they took it out along with one of her kidneys her gorel bladder one of her glans and she has to have another gland removed as well. Its a reoccurring cancer so she has been told there is a big chance it may come back and that is playing on her mind as well she had to sell her cafe that she had just opened a few months ago as she cant fiscally work any more . any way hope your on the mend my friend , love to you both atvbjimmy/nicola Quote Link to post

So i may go back to when i started and buy a raider but this time a 10 shot one atvbjimmy 1 Quote Link to post
