Tactical Pith Helmet

It does come with 10k of Bulldog BBs though.

A mate who runs shows has seen a drop in footfall. I simply don't think that there is much spare cash around for a variety of reasons. Luckily, I think that we are like alcoholics unaffected by the minimum unit pricing. It's too late for us to kick the pew habit now. They'll have to pry our rifs from our cold stiff hands, all the heating money squandered on running around the woods in fancy dress.

What do you call a Frenchman wearing sandals? Philippe Flop.

I wouldn't blame the weather exclusively. I noticed lower numbers all summer and autumn. It was dry this year until late October. Pre Rona, my local site was pre-booking to avoid too many players turning up. Numbers were nowhere near that level this summer on the few occasions that I did one day games. Several regular faces have dropped out for certain.

You can have a great game 5 v 5 with the right set up/rules. Hope they sort the site for the reduced numbers. One game day a month is crap if it clashes with other things. There does seem to be a drop in player numbers noted in few posts of late.

"You've been late for work three times this week. Do you know what that means?" "It's Wednesday?"

I asked my mate Bo what it's like living in North Korea. He said he can't complain.

On the eve of Brexit, I bought a bulk order from TG. It was a sizeable purchase. Put it this way, I told Mrs TPH that I'd spent £450.00... Among my haul was a JG G3. It cost £73.00.

French fries aren't fried in France. They're fried in grease.

Had to call an ambulance today. A woman was unconscious on the luggage carousel of our local airport. 'Tell me if she comes around,' said the operator. 'She does about every five minutes,' I replied.

My dog only responds to commands in Spanish. He's Espaniol.

My likes include eating my family and not using commas.

I did similar. I was seven though!

Ducati have used Bosch components since the 1980s at least. It was the looms and enclosures that were dodgy. Modern QC is much improved though. I plan to take my 25+ year Italian steed into town tomorrow despite the forecast rain anyhow. To get slightly back on topic... I used to export Italian made cast metal goods. There are a fair few sweatshops in Italy I know. Traditional heavy industries are quality, but textiles and electronics are a little different. Hope that the Evolution rifs reach CYMA quality levels.

A young nun is in the bath wjen there's a knock at the door. 'Who is it?' she asks. 'The blind man, I need to come in.' comes the reply. 'OK,' she says. The man enters and stares at her. 'Nice tits! Where do you want these blinds?'

I remember Steve's face as he came out of the room. 'It's a boy. It's a boy!' he yelled. We've not been back to Thailand since.

A policeman asked why a little girl was crying. 'I've lost me mum,' says the girl. 'What's she like?' he says, full of concern. 'Cock and vodka...'

Microwave burgers are straight from hell. If pressed for time, a Foreman grill and a timer is good for fuss free burgers that are cooked with little input from oneself.

Jesus Christ was going to be called Gary, but Mary stubbed her toe.

Please! These poor folk have paedophiles in pizza joints and reptiles running the country. No wonder they're jolly cross. 😉 Du ban GI! Orwell reckoned that the last democratic weapon was the bolt action rifle. He died before the AK was born. Not that the Pashtun needed auto to slot invaders... For context, the Bill of Rights upon which the 2A is based was written after the people had risen and overthrown the govt. They needed to ensure that they could do so again, especially as the Guild of Masters had been supressed in the previous century, and a lot of martial knowledge monopolised by the state as had been. Technology has changed in the last 400 years. Ideas about democracy/polity/representation/balance of powers have hardly moved on for 2500 years, certainly since the 1780's.

I'm certain someone's tampering with my anti-paranoia medication.

Indeed, and yet the Zapatistas, Naaxalites, YPG/YPJ, Yazidi militias, ELN, Nepalese Maoists, Sendero Luminoso to name the first to mind have done just that. Even more 'bonkers...' Mao arming the Red Guards to rise against elements of his own government/military.

Amazing people. I'll let you tell Parr that he's a wimp 😉

Slightly off topic, but as someone with damaged joints, Wayne Parr is something of an inspiration. He was fighting with the world's best months after a hip replacement. Shows the power of physio and makes me stick to mine!
