    PS 11 pages about finding some blanks? Yipeee, how exciting.
    And yet you still posted on the dull thread?

    'Bullet Heads' is a strange term only used in the UK, instead of the rest of the worlds 'projectiles'

    ...it gets on my tits tbh,
    Let us be thankful we have an occupation to fill. Work hard, increase production, prevent accidents and be happy.
    Let us be thankful we have commerce. Buy more. Buy more now. Buy. And be happy.

    Well, if my 8 yr old lad made the round trip back to scotland from yorkshire, climbed half a mountain, and hoovered up the brass, i'd have noticed the smell of fish, cos he wouldnt have been able to resist doing again the other thing he did for the first time last week, when he caught his first mackeral.

    Hes got his own tools though, and was introduced to the hammer and nail method of making safe quite some time ago...

    fek me, over 12 pages just cos i wondered who would have some brazilian brass in the highlands!
