  1. WTF has happened to my profile pic?  Can anyone see it?  It seems to have disappeared!

      Huh, mine looks fine on my end.

      Maybe its related to how long since the pic changed? I know i havent changed mine in ages

      Most people's are just a random snippet of their username in text form (in my browser).

  2. A pen doctor showed up at my flat last night. She had travelled all the way from Madrid to fix my broken Biro. “I didn’t expect you”, I said. “Nobody expects the Spanish ink physician”, she replied..
  3. Laughing at your mistakes makes you live a happier, longer life. Laughing at your wife's has the opposite effect...
  4. Depends on the rules. I have a habit of clarifying these at briefing. 'What's team A's channel, what's team B's, which is marshal channel in case of emergency.' Listening in after being told the channel to avoid is a dick move. Not knowing the marshal channel is daft in case someone breaks a leg or similar (again). Picking up an unattended enemy radio and sending false info, listening in etc is 100% fine in my book. It's also great fun to use a stupid callsign and then mention what you did around the campfire later that evening... I only play filmsim though.
  5. Budget thermal is a £299 Hik Micro suitable for airsoft ranges.
  6. CYMA M14 Socom. Perfect out of the box.
  7. Due to Mrs TPH working late, and the joy of roadworks, I've just only set up camp and sat down to an isotonic sports scotch; all ready to fight the imperialist running dogs at the first Namsoft of the year.  

     

    Du ban GI!

      Hope you had a good weekend. We were at AI500, but wished we were at Namsoft pretty much as soon as it started  😂

  8. Military Mart have L35 backpacks for £45! That's a third less than many shops. MM also have new old stock warpac greatcoats for £18 delivered. All wool so great for the depths of winter. Good for games from 1917 revolution/civil war/allied invasion, to late 70's early 80's cold war.
  9. Never go out for a walk in the rain in bell bottom trousers. I did and now they're ringing....
  10. Lord knows. Apologies. I think that I probably meant to reply to another post. Think I'll turn the PC off and go back to playing my collection of 78s....
  11. Only £160 for a useless vest? Sobs in Russian kit collector....
  12. A man who was wrongly accused of masturbating on a bus, has won a £5000 pay out by the police. I bet he splashes out on something nice.
  13. Micro plastics and this crap are everywhere. We can't even get asbestos out of schools, let alone deal with this crap. Bloody disgrace.
  14. Use your red/green colour blindness to your advantage by becoming a cyclist.
  15. I'm familiar with the RS version, anyone know anything about the G&G version? Any known faults etc? These look great for WW2 games and they have a far better sight set up than the previous SMLE. https://www.kingsofairsoft.co.uk/product-page/g-g-le4-mk-i-eu?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=cpc&utm_content=Products&utm_campaign=120202585076020626&platform=fb&placement=Facebook_Desktop_Feed&utm_id=120202585076020626&utm_term=120202585079680626&fbclid=IwY2xjawH1Vc9leHRuA2FlbQEwAGFkaWQBqxcVTSgFYgEdRPaUKYhzCbEI9qxEAtkoHXyoRQCqVT8S70xYw7mK3H5-oe7SKgizPtxr_aem_QY3ElpGzQuI3XAeaQZKUTg
  16. I'm 5'11", 32" waist, 40" chest and I wear a fair bit of Russian gear at 50-5. You reckon 46-5/6 would fit OK?
  17. Off to S.T.A.L.K.E.R.S. tomorrow.  Kit in the van and Giger counter ready. 

     

    Only missed one game, but I'm looking forward to this one even more.  The effort put into the props and site are terrific.

      Ah I was really tempted by this - enjoy!

      Where does this take place?

      @Anonymoose near Mildenhall in Suffolk.  It also happens at Gunman Alpha near Reading.  I'll finish the write up and post pics when they're up.

       

  18. I'm not watching I'm A Celebrity. If I want to watch a load of talentless twats eating bollocks and eyeballs, I'll go and stand outside a Greggs.
  19. On my way to a lot of it. Gunman Alpha and Bravo are the destination!
  20. Chap I knew years ago was a factory race team mechanic for Norton. His Commando was stupid fast. The compression that it ran at was amazing, but we all ran old parallel twins with about 15% dope in the tank. Another bloke I often met at the Pod had a Battle of the Twins class drag bike that was tuned to the point of fragility. They really are still a great real world roadster, especially with a knife edged crank and modern bearings, valve seats, ignitions etc. Hope you enjoy many miles of fun riding the old girl!
  21. I tend to sit in a traffic jam on the M25 whenever I go to the place...
  22. I've been amazed at the amount of crud that new barrels contain. Getting one truly clean requires a fair bit of force and a very tight patch sometimes.
  23. Modern classic; albeit a bloody silly one. Love it!
  24. Always fancied one, but I've never been able to switch between left and right gearboxes. Bloody horrible memories of hurtling towards a bend with no engine braking or back brake on a borrowed mates B40, in the snow, just a denim jacket and flat cap turned backwards for protection. IIRC it's the same engine as the Atlas and also pre-isolastic?
