as some may know I have had a bad time with one of my knees over the past few months, and the immediate future is not much better waiting for a decision by the surgeon on the best way forward he knows I need a new knee but he is trying to hold back replacement somewhat due to my age, at the moment I have to wear a brace, and take morphine based painkillers, plus I am getting gel injections into the knee ( that HURTS) to help movement and give a little "gap" between my bloody bones, so to keep me occupied (cant get to the footy! cant go diving wrong time of year anyway difficult to drive and I cant walk far so shooting is out as well!!!!) I am into my "anorak hobby" building RC planes this is the latest one off the blocks took about 10 weeks to this stage,weighs about 22lbs and uses a two stroke 38cc petrol engine wingspan is 105" ![]() cheers mh |

I once shot one out of a tree for a guy, we were going roost shooting and his plane was stuck, we shot the branches off but his plane got wrecked. *QQQ* Can't think why?? He was happy though.

Small wonder lead is so expensive, and orders of ammo exported from the US are always delayed :wacko: . What a pointless waste :( . |
