    Great stuff, reminds of when I got one for Christmas when I was about eight. Talked about it at school one day in class and one of the girls starts bawling at the teacher as if I got an M-16, teacher put her in her place by saying they aren't illegal bitch*.

    She didn't actually say the last word, but the way she told that girl off you would think that she wanted to, smirk-me-do.

        I'm relearning what it's was like to be a bum all over again on my Days off; Drinking 8 cans of Stellar a day ,loving starting to drink at 1pm and not care about it ( How I missed it )

        Got the weights set back in the garage and started to enjoy lifting them again, which I haven't done since my 20's

        Taken to walking miles and miles(more than usual)up the mountain and enjoying walking over 10 miles a day, taking different routes from usual (before the lockdown it would be 3 miles a day on the usual route).

        The Dart board is back up in the garage and enjoying throwing the darts.

        Taken a interest in birds watching and all the different types that vist the garden of late..Love watching them, while out the back in the sun having a can of Stellar ( the world seems ok then LOL).

          Sadly all the great old British brands are just name tags on Chinese and Spanish air rifles. I still fancy a vintage BSA airsporter. I had to break my made in the UK rule and buy a German one. We don't make them anymore

                . Those were the days. My brother used to have an old Land Rover also van and also 2 Ex Postal Ford vans that he bought in the auctions and striped the engines down and swap them over, when living with mum (and had tons of cash on the hip) . Sadly the good sister-in law put a stop to all that. But he still got his guns, slings, fishing rods and other stuff in his man shed in his allotment.

                    [MENTION=9465]Brad[/MENTION] when we moved to Denmark, I didn't want to jeopardize the move, so got rid of my air pistols and rifle. I feel bad about one of the pistols, a .177 Webley Junior that had been my Dad's since he was 17. In amazing condition and well looked after.

                          I’d love a webley tempest and a (if memory serves) bsa air sport I think it’s called. Had mates with those and always wanted one.
