    Not so much a shotgun, but a rifle on the other hand....:D:D:D

    These are from a shooting range in New Zealand. The targets, which are about the size of someones head were about 100' away and the .22 rifle didn't have any fancy telescopic sight. I reckon I'd make a good sniper/assassin.:beer::beer:

    Just remind me not to get on the wrong side of you :eek::rotfl:

    My old neighbour was a private country estate warden/gamekeeper and the collection of different guns he had was amazing, DS just loved going into his garden when he came back from work with that days spoils. The guy would let him help to string them up ready to be hung or prepared or frozen depending on what supplies he had available. I think most of Belfast's city centre resaurants were supplied fresh game by him at one point or other until stupid legislation came in stating the meat had to be 'oven ready' but then DS was taught which feathers were saught after by anglers and which weren't as valuable.
    DS was distraught when he died two years ago this week, RIP David you were a gent and a friend

    Right, I'm off to bed. I won't be posting much from now as I've been told my posts are pointless..

    can't thank this, in Belfast we'd tell anyone who told us this sort of thing to SLIDE ON! The polite version BTW :p

    Morning all. Woken up at 2 am with the police helicopter circling and lots of sirens. Now a car alarm keeps going off down the road, stopping and going off again. Seems an ideal time to catch up on the last 10 pages as I cant get back to sleep.

    Morning! :j
    Loving browsing the T's direct toys... hope they are honoured. I have a feeling some of them might be as there was a huge bin of toys at a silly price in store the other day - they were Bakugan something or others for £1.50 (reduced from something like £10) and we didn't get any as DS said they were the wrong sort... but that was a white SEL... so here's hoping!

    Busy day ahead- so off to the sandwiches :)
