  1. Mmmm 2 hours to go and will Boris lock us down ???

    1. Sitting Duck

      Sitting Duck

      if he does then he is a bigger fucking idiot than I thought possible

       

      lock everything down, so NOBODY goes out

      (except to shop & key workers etc...)

      nurseries, schools, universities still open, but kids mixing with a 1,000 others won't spread & bring back the virus ???

       

      if NOBODY goes to the pub, eat out etc...

      then wtf is the point of track n trace

      no notifications = no need to get tested

      nobody testing - cases drop drastically

      hooray - it has all been a success

       

      until next time

       

      The Lurgy Lockdown - 3rd/4th wave etc...

       

      COVID-19 doesn't really kill you as such

      instead it is mostly PNEUMONIA caused by influenza, cold/rhino-virus and now COVID-19

      You get an infection/inflamation in your lungs as they fill up with fluid/puss - and that is what causes most of the deaths - pneumonia

       

      But write down COVID-19

       

      Did you know that the When the BBC said COVID-19 is THREE times more deadly than the flu - they used a graph that displayed a higher death rate in 1992~2000 for influenza

      So they quickly pulled it and replaced it with one for just 2020

       

      Now there was 2 x 8 year periods where in 1975~1983 it reached 63,000 deaths pa for influenza/pneumonia

      & also 60,000 pa for 1992~2000

      The last serious outbreak lead to the influenza vaccine programe being rolled out after 2000

       

      What they are doing is comparing influenza, which we have had started to develop vaccines since 1930, a virus we have a range of vaccines for various strains of flu - comparing it to a new virus we don't have a vaccine for

       

      So comparing the flu TODAY where 14m get the vaccine, to COVID-19 with NO VACCINE is like comparing apples to oranges

       

      Plus in 1992~2000 the UK had a much lower population so that 60k would equate to 70,000 deaths today

       

      But here is the rub...

       

      Does ANYBODY remember the lockdown, masks & crazy wash wash washing your hands during those 16 years in 1975~1983 & also 1992~2000

       

      coz I fucking don't remember any of it at all

      (was on another device earlier but here's some pics)

       

      1) original graph BBC quickly pulled showing outbreak in 90's

      (ooops quick change it)

      2) the one they quickly replaced it with showing just 2020

      4) history of large flu/pneumonia pandemic in 1992~2000

      (when the flu vaccine then was rolled out in 2000 onwards)

      5) the pandemic in 1975~1983

      and for reference the Spanish Flu in 1918

      Point being when we had a large pandemic twice for 8 years during 75~83 & 92~2000...

      Does anybody remember masks & lock downs back then

      coz I bloody don't

      2nd of December it is then .........

  2. @Zarrin I thought Mando was set after the “new hope” in fact after “return” since they was talking about after the 2nd Death Star had blown up, so I wonder who killed who/what created the Dino bones you saw in new hope ?
  3. @Enid_Puceflange playing Devils advocate here........ If you was actually dead and was indeed walking back to spawn and someone hosed you down would you be pissed off/kick off/moan to marshalls ?? You would only pull that one once with me as I would “trip-tap” you any time I saw you in the game zone
  4. Not 100% sure about up north but in England T3 is as follows pertaining to us (from my understanding) At a minimum, this means: > you must not socialise with anybody you do not live with or have formed a support bubble with, in any indoor setting or in any private garden or at most outdoor hospitality venues and ticketed events > you must not socialise in a group of more than 6 in an outdoor public space such as a park or beach, the countryside, a public garden or a sports venue > you should try to avoid travelling outside the very high alert level area you are in or entering a very high alert level area, other than for things like work, education or youth services, to meet caring responsibilities or if you are travelling through as part of a longer journey > you should avoid staying overnight in another part of the UK if you are resident in a very high alert level area, or avoid staying overnight in a very high alert level area if you are resident elsewhere So it means for me that I can’t go to any site that’s in a zone that it’s T3 if I don’t live within it and if I do live within the zone it’s 6 persons max. Which means I wouldn’t be allowed to head to say anything within Nottinghamshire or stay over as I don’t live within Nottinghamshire - that’s before I even think about playing at a site......
  5. Decided to slap my tracer on my AAP-01 and turn on the “Fun Switch”

    sorry for wobbly piccie couldn’t see jack till I started to fire

      Hi Mik 

      Do you mean the Full size render.mov? Cause that failed to download.

      🤔

  6. @Skara maybe your Gov has banned you from posting piccies toooo
  7. WOW!!  Come Friday 00:01 the whole of Nottinghamshire is in Tier3 Lockdown - unlucky Notts ‘Softers :( 

    1. Shamal

      Shamal

      Does that apply to outside games?

    2. MiK

      MiK

      tier 3 has these (amomgst others)

      You can meet up in groups of up to six people in parks, beaches, countryside or forests

      You are advised not to travel into or out of tier three areas, other than for work, education, youth services or caring responsibilities

      Nottingham (shire) is also having a 9pm alcohol rule too

      So it’s not looking good for anyone in Nottinghamshire

      YOU ARE RIGHT. 

      IT'S BLOODY DAMN NEAR SILENT!

      Oops sorry 

       

  9. I doubt even a full real steel version of any gun would survive in any form if I fell on it - even a Barrett 50 cal wouldn’t survive it
  10. Skirmshop UK has got Silverback MK23 Suppressors back in stock so they have just gained 29 of my finest Great British Pounds & 10 of my Shiniest pennies
  11. Personally I was a TDK man for audio......... I won’t mention the old 8-track the old stick had in his car
  12. @Mad-Al I personally used 3mm disc’s I get from Amazon - depending on the size they are around a quid each (free delivery too) https://amzn.to/3oltFEg Just remember to measure the outer of the scope - even my scope is a 50mm I used a 60mm disc on the outer and just use some black electrical tape to secure it - have used this system on my cqb rifle and the Red-dot is still perfect even after getting up close quite often. /when I get home and into the cave I’ll grab a photo
  13. @Shamal And I thought the topic was about you getting burnt by your local dealer ..............🤫
  14. Welcome!! Find a local site to near you - book in and hire some of the sites gear and see if you do really like it before you drop any cash as if you do like it the your wallet and credit card won’t ever be the same again site wise do a search on the tinter-net or have a look in the site reviews lower down in the forums, but I’m sure within in a few hours lots of people in and about Herts will be suggesting sites
  15. And that’s the main point of airsoft 🥳
  16. There’s nowt wrong being a 50+ chunky monkey wanting to have fun pew-pewing, I had the same concerns being a “flower-power” child (69) before I started up.. As @Old Guy said it does pay to “limber up” a bit beforehand - my pregame routine is finishing up my brew from my travel mug and asking friends what new gear they’ve got !! You’re gonna ache like a bad-un in the morning but by hell your gonna sleep like a baby My motto “Have Fun and if anyone tries to put a downer on what your up-to ...........FUCK’EM!!!” ps Welcome /edit (69) is the year not my age
  17. So Mr stupidboi stood on his MK23 silencer with his hoofs of doom - a replacement is needed I see the silverback one is sold out everywhere - I know this question might offend some but is the “N” one any good ? Or anyone offer up a half decent replacement??

      @Hatchet function over form - you know the make of said Stubby ?

      I'm afraid not. It was just some generic plastic one, probably pick one up for £15-£20. The beauty of the adapter is that you can just select whatever takes your fancy/is available. You can also take a slightly different route as Lee's Precision does a threaded 14mm barrel, but it's about £40, which is a relatively expensive way of achieving the same result.

  18. @Cr0-Magnon it’s all black and I’m a little freaky/ocd over having manuals for stuff
  19. AAP-01 arrived early doors - seems to fire well but haven’t had much time to mess about with - Yes the manual is in “French” - any translators about ^^
  20. I bought a AAP-01 for 75£ from PB this evening (soon as I got the email really) - coming Friday /edit just looked on PB for optional extras but the guns all sold out in all colour options
  21. @alxndrhll well you do know what BMW stands for yea ?
  22. @Ace Airsoft War Games Sooooooo what’s the kill radius on that puppy ?
  23. I have to agree 101% with that statement, each to there own I know I will never be in “Speedsofter” bracket again - maybe 30yrs ago in PB As long as people are doing what the game mission is meant to be and they are calling there hits and not being dicks I’m easy - admittedly getting trip-tapped by a S’softer in CQB hurts like a mofo! but a Hit is a Hit !!
