Yeah but, it’s funny cos he ‘killed’ a snowman by shooting it with its own nose

Whats really bizarre here is the fact that is exactly what happened to poor cedric the snowman. His head had melted and his poor old nose was laying next to him so I chopped it up and shot him with it lol I carried out a distance test today and a 1 inch potato pellet went well over 100 yards

Wow! With the potato pellets I think some kind of aiming system is needed.

[Gareth W-B]

And further confirmation, not that any was needed, that you will most certainly fit in at The Hollow, Gareth.

Then when ensconced at The Hollow, I will wear my badge (once duly decorated in golden glitter ) with an extra special sense of new found pride.

I reckon so too. I may even knock up a mark 2 version. I've ordered a Schrader valve with 1/4" bsp thread which I'm going to tap and screw into a brass stop end to sure up the filling side of things. At the moment its a rubber valve cut from an inner tube pushed through a tight hole drilled in the stop end. At the moment it only seals properly once the pressure starts to increase (similar to a car tyre) and is probably the weak link. I also wrapped some wooden dowels in duck tape to ensure a tight fit and tried them today. They worked really well too!!!

I'm that desperate I ventured into non airgun I can't find FOX, s "sports biscuits" in any of my local shops and not had any for months. If any bash member from other parts of the country happen to locate any, could they be so kind and buy loads, and bring them to the bash in April please ?

You been up here ? I normally get them from Heron, Homebargains or even the pound shops. None have had them for months and the local supermarkets have never really stocked them
