I know what most people think is the case but the written rules tell a different story. If I was being unkind I would suggest the police "interpret" the rules to their liking knowing that it would probably be too expensive for the average person to challenge them. I hasten to add it has never...

When applying for whichever calibre you want you need to remember that sometimes the police will tell you that it is a privilege to own a firearm. This is not so; it is your right. If you look at the rules on applying for a firearm you will see that it says your application WILL be granted...

I went to Oz in 1967 for £10, 6 weeks on the boat though.

Yes it was David Dowler, I bought a Holder A60 tractor from him about 1984.

No, home made posts with stays because wind pressure on 4 tapes can blow posts over. You don't want deer thinking it's ok to cross the line. Now that I have sold the farm after 43 years deer farming I am still trying to work out whether I miss them or not! On the whole I am ok with it because I...

An old photo but same theme.

That looks like it will be a very nice house when you have finished, lots of nice stonework.

Ok I will be dumb enough to ask the question, were you up a ladder or doing it from a telehandler? Asking cos I have 2 rows to do. Will they survive being reduced by half their height, I have heard they don't like side branches being cut off?

Back in the days when you had to have a license for an "explosives store" if you were reloading rifle cartridges I had a visit from the police wanting to inspect my explosives store. After a cup of coffee and a few biscuits he came to the conclusion that the now empty biscuit tin stored in the...

The S3 indicator was bought new about 3 years ago and is as new condition. Reason for sale is I have...

I am sure I saw some prices for domestic LPG somewhere. Anybody know where? or what have people been paying please.

I suppose that could be either the wheel rims or the tyres at fault, bit of a pain balancing the rims on their own to find out.

Still not getting anywhere with this. On the tractor all lights are working except the brake lights. Have put a new relay in, no difference. If I connect the trailer lighting board the brake lights are on if tractor ignition is on. I obviously have a live wire coming through to the trailer...

I have pulled out the relay for the brake lights and put it back in. Now I have the right hand brake light working on the tractor and if I connect the trailer board those 2 brake lights are on a well. Pressing the brake pedal makes no difference to anything. I will try to find how to test the...

No they don't work when the trailer board is not connected and when I connect the board the brake lights on the board are on; pressing the tractor brake makes no difference. The rear light clusters have always been temperamental, usually bad connections between bulb and holders so yesterday I...
