  1. I've had good games a Tuddenham in a pre-fab single story accommodation block. A lot of thought went into the games and they were spring and gas only days. Only one chap had a GBBR the rest were pump action shotties, pistols etc. Bloody great fun.
  2. I have a disease where I can't stop telling airport jokes. My doctor says it's terminal...
  3. You two need the good work of GT85 and silicone grease (and surplus waterproofs on the bike). I took this pic after a run into town on my old winter hack. I'd stopped off at the common for a play on my way back. I use the lad's SR125 for really shit weather these days.
  4. Rang the orphanage today and said that I had a large donation for them. I'll drop the fat little swine off after school on Monday...
  5. He's quoting Alfred Wainwright in A Coast to Coast Walk. I expect that Fiennes is familiar with Wainwright!
  6. Stock length has a big effect on arm tiredness. Mrs TPH uses an AKS with the stock collapsed. Its all metal, but holding the weight closer to her, she does fine all weekend at milsims/filmsims. She's 4'11" too. I play at Snetterton sometimes. My son uses a VZ Skorpion with a li-po there. Ultra light and with a drum hi-cap you only need the one mag.
  7. How do you make a bear cross? Nail two bears together.
  8. That's quality! Also I appreciate your tenacity. Look forward to your results.
  9. Paul Simon has opened a cat sanctuary. Its called 'Feline Groovy.'* *I know, I'm really sorry(ish) 🤣
  10. Uncle Bob went on a blind date last night, It didn't start that way... But she had pepper spray
  11. What's green and fuzzy, with four legs, and can kill you if it falls from a tree? A pool table.
  12. I won a competition for Heston Blumenthal to cook at my house using only ingredients I had at home. It was amazing, we had a fantastic Vietnamese coconut curry with lime and coriander foam, mint and teatree jelly, cocoa shea butter sabayon and finished with a frozen lemon and ginseng tea. In the morning the wife said all her toiletries had gone and one of the cats was missing.
  13. Unfortunately this years charity Pantomime for the local Paranoia Society has been cancelled. During the first performance proceedings descended into chaos when somebody shouted, 'He's behind you.......'
  14. My main ride (W650) complete with son. Note ex-girlfriends lace sided leather loon pants. I used to wear them until I stopped training martial arts for a couple of years and got bloody fat! Bike has been dynojetted, airbox cut and pipes debaffled then dyno'd for perfect mixture. Turned an 85mph constipated slug into a ton plus snorting beasty. Crap pic of my Guzzi. Same Tonti frame as the LeMans. Frame of a sportsbike, engine that's agricultural folk art. Wanted one ever since I rode a friends new one back in the mid 90s. Mrs TPH likes this one. With a little bit of help from a bloody great iron bar it sounds like a Lancaster bomber. It makes hum the CHiPs theme tune as you ride it. Old pic of my XS 'Zig-Zag Wanderer' after the Beefheart song. I'd bought some 7/8" ss tube to make handlebars with, but booze said, 'Nah, you need a sissy bar.' Still have it. It now has open shotgun pipes and is Daytona yellow. My bike for hot dry days. 0-100 in 7.2... My Dad bought this for himself for his 70th. He has something more sedate now - Honda 750 Hornet. I've a few more in bits and the lad already has four including a GSX250R. I think they breed in the garage tbh. Looking to buy an Enfield to chop. I want another hardtail. Looking at an 883 on Saturday. It's A2 license friendly and #1 son can slow down a bit and have something comfy for his girlfriend to sit on. I'll not put the patched up pics online, but bikes have been a massive part of my life for years. Despatch rider for a while, lived in a shared house with clubmates. Still get together once a month to scare polite society.
  15. He was acquitted. He put it down to the quality brief that he could afford. Their is an archived BBC article that I found earlier on another device, hence sorry no link. Extendable batons are not legal for non-crown office holders/military etc. Cheque book justice.
  16. The Daleks: horrible beings devoid of all emotions but hate. They're like Piers Morgan on wheels.
  17. My granddad remembers, 'Fighting them on the beaches.' Lovely man, but a very short fused deckchair attendant.
  18. I've lost several pairs of shoes. I've a lot of sole searching to do.
  19. An aeg uses a piston in a chamber that creates... high pressure air behind the BB. You'll be telling us that hpa breaks peoples fingers next. So, it was Air Sniper in disguise all along!
  20. Cigarettes are like weasels. Both are completely harmless until you put them in your mouth and set fire to them.
  21. My Aldi digi callipers have served me for years. However, if I REALLY needed to measure something, I'd use a micrometer and make sure that I'd tested it with a gauge block recently. I have known really crap cheapo rubbish BBs to exceed size tolerance, but I doubt you'd want to use them, Bulldog and similar.
  22. You can swim with dolphins for free. Swimming with sharks costs an arm and a leg...
  23. I should think the most obvious would be to have a stripper on at lunchtime given the target audience... Seriously though, given some of the 'banter' and 'funny' patches, some games are hardly welcoming to all. Mrs TPH has played at filmsim/milsim games for a while now. I'm glad that I didn't ever take her along to a few of the skirmishes that I've attended. If we could all confidently take our better halves it could make a big difference to numbers. That said, the same is true about a lot of events/sports etc.
  24. I made a right dog's dinner of a meal today. Then I remembered that I work in a pet food factory....
