The only exception I'd make to what I initially said is when the gas is almost expired in my Crosman Ratcatcher and it's almost empty I remove the knurled cap and I 'Dry-Fire' the remaining tiny amount of gas and that usually makes the canister pop out of the casing thus making it easier to remove.

Hope things are well with you, Mel,

Cheers Graeme, will do as you say regarding the capsules, I'm fine thank you, apart from a Stye on my right lower lid, but i'm treating it with medication.
Guitar is not going good though, fat arthritic fingers don't help, but i have just found out that a neighbour teaches guitar at schools and he has offered to show me a few 'pointers' as he put it so i'm going along with that.

Some of the chords seem impossible to reach though, guess i've started too late but we will see how it goes.

Hope you are keeping OK, by the way got the CD set of Ken Sykora recordings his family have produced, contains a lovely glossy booklet and two CDs of his recordings.
It's very good and as the three EPs I bought back in the late fifties when I was fifteen are very scratched its nice to here his playing clear without crackle and scratches, the CDs reproduction is very good and almost sound like the vinyl used to.

Cheers

Mel
