    If Tash could get up he'd be ok in the Pioneer Corps.

    With a very near caliper, the world is your ostrich, try that in mill, and things go pear shaped, point one of an inch kills the europeans, but a 3/16 drill is 4.8mm. Dead easy goes up by 8 every time.
    but still think in sterling, pounds shillings and pence...................as for metal thous work better, more accurate, IMO.

    TBH anyone with a brain out this way pisses off overseas, usually to Australia! Seriously though the pays average but the lifestyle is unbelievably good. Fresh clean air & only 4.4m people in an area the size of the UK/Eire. Fishing/hunting, you name it we have it all outdoors & it's all FREE. Just hope in the car & drive.

    Take ya helmit lad or learn to run, RUN VERY FAST <laugh>

    Quite a lot of the guys who use the NUFC forum on here have moved over to a new site. AP is one of them. Not really in a position to say why as I see the main issues have been sorted out (General Chat mainly) although I think they were blown out of proportion. I left because a lot of good posters went and wanted to have the chat with those I knew. I only use not606 now to chat to you guys as it can be boring on a single club forum!!

    Strange, because I thought there were less posters, but put it down to xmas etc, damn shame. hopefully they will bounce site to site. NOW is that why rep has come back?

    Supposedly. Our forum was (for some reason) big on rep. I cared little for it as I don't need the approval of people I don't know to validate myself but each to their own.

    I think some people will bounce from site to site. Forums are not something one pledges too and you only stick to one. Use as many as you like. I am sure some of you guys use RTG.
