I bought 9 fillers as well as the Lynx and Cobra.

the Cobra was bought at the last minute because the final bill was more then the APG used against it so the friendly SA said you need to buy something else so that's why on the spur of the moment I picked up a Cobra.

you mean the apg was more than the final bill?

Morning everyome



I have some sympathy with this ChrisEvanson as I have been unable to keep up with the thread lately and I would very much like to, though maybe for different reasons.

But it is interesting that you are trying to encourage peeps not to be judgmental, and yet I read you post and found some of the comments both derogatory and judgemental, yet I am very sure that was not your intent. If someone suggests to read back a few pages then that is usually good advice, not a snide comment. If it is indeed just a few pages this takes a couple of minutes, well worth the effort if you want to hook a fantastic bargain. If the answer is a way further back in the current thread or even on a previous thread, folk usually take the time to hunt it down and link or reference it. We all read and interpret things differently and that is why I don't usually comment on such stuff, but ....

I wanted to comment here becuase I think at a time when the thread is very very busy it is important to underline the fact that the spotting and grabbing of bargains is not the raison d'etre of this thread - that is why it is here, on this sub-board, on MSE, and not elsewhere. If you want Grabbits, there is a board for that on MSE and there are plenty of other sites that do similar - you have referenced a couple that do it very very well.

This thread is resilient and sustains because of the way it has evolved and becuase of the way it self manages. The very people who "sit on it all day" (doubt there are in reality many if any of those) are the bedrock of why the thread continues through both glitchfests and lean times, through harmony and discord.

"some people have a lot of other things to do in their lives and can't spend all day every day sitting at their computer." I don't have the time to do this, nor does anyone here. The core of the thread, the trunk of midwinters tree, is a group of wonderful folk (am not including myself in this) who day in, day out don't just between them keep this fab thread going, but do so with verve and style and compassion and empathy and with joy and laughter and tears. And the fact that in doing so they save us all bucket loads of money is a bonus and a blessing. I am uncomfortable when I see this criticised, because that is the "goose" - not the actual glitches themselves. And when there are lots of glitches and there is disharmony on the thread, then these folk should be applauded for the way they do things, not dissed, because it is so much harder to sustain that equilibrium and yet it is done, through thick and thin.

Absolutely everyone is welcome on the thread, everyone is encouraged to post. But please please don't try to change the way the thread runs because it has been tested over time, it is good, it is sound and it helps hundreds of folk every single day and I would be very very sad if that were to stop.

RN thank you so much, I'm sure you've summarised the feelings many people have about this lovely thread, certainly mine :A thanks redfox for keeping the thread open for so long :A

Afternoon
This morning i went on a road trip to a Mr A about 17 miles away hunting for snakes,This weather must make them dormant as they were very easy to find,caught 5 in all.3 apg's already printed,just waiting for my 2 nd 2 from my 2nd visit.
So much friendlier than my local Mr A,sa didnt bat an eyelid at my apg.sdidnt even look at them.
Passed a Mr T on way home and par took in a meal deal which netted me a nice PP,

Just phoned Mr Boots and my order is ready for collection .Mr Boots just happens to be within Mr A so might go looking for some more cats as im getting my box's ready for the soldiers and im sure they will appreciate some cats.

Just read a few pages are cats finished now?
