Thank you for seeing the wood from the trees, Ridgley. Buy I think the main issue on this thread is that some people refuse to accept reality. That reality is that a great deal of hunters (such as myself) do still take large game with either a bow or crossbow; even if we have to go abroad to do it. But they've proved themselves unable - or unwilling - to accept what's patently obvious, so there's really no point in carrying on with this discussion.
My preferred hunting technique is to find somewhere that's thick with pheasants - then I simply run them over with the car and bag the ones which are not too badly squashed. My merc has a front spoiler quite close to the ground - ideal for taking out a whole flock of them at a time...why waste money on trips abroad with bows and arrows and all that rubbish???

You love it really...admit it Scribbles.


Why else would you keep coming back spouting the rubbish that you do.

If you were older than 12yrs you'd have the Intelligence to ignore this.

You'd also be playing with grown up guns and not little cap guns and crossbows.


You act like a complete twat and you are hideously rude.

I'm not "spouting rubbish". I'm commenting on a subject that the majority who've contributed to this thread seem to think is out-dated and cruel, which it patently isn't. And I have ignored this thread up until now, but Annette Curtain felt it necessary to resurect it, not I.


And I'm not being "hideously rude", either. I'm replying in kind, you oaf. For instance, if someone 'flipped you the bird', as it were (like you have done with your childish emoticon), would you smile back or offer them your seat? I think not.

    • Hello. Would you like a sofa bed? We have one to give away…photos attached. The scatter cushions are not included.
    • Complaint submitted.  Your helpful link took me straight to the relevant page. 🙏
    • I spend a riddiculous amount of time at the PO.  Every day.  I watch and I watch closely.  Returns take seconds.  The wait might be long but the scan takes a second.  The only thing that slows down a return is people scrolling through their phones looking for QR codes. Business customers like me take seconds.  I might have up to 2 bags of boxes but every one is perfectly packaged and pre-paid.  It just needs a scan.  Seconds. For customers like me and for returns customers they could just put in a self-service check out and we would all be in and out in minutes.  Quicker than M&S.   Or, have a dedicated window for scanning and nothing else.  No facility to handle money at that window so nobody is tempted to ask for a service other than scanning.  That would get the queues down instantly. It is the people picking up things that backs up the queue.  The branch is not equipped to provide the service.  Next time you're in the branch take a look at the shelf space immediately behind the servers.  A few stacking shelves.  That's all the space they have.  Everything else is on the floor in a mess.  I take on board what someone said about the private delivery companies not delivering to Peckham and I didn't know that.   The biggest time wasting service of all is Parcelforce.  If someone in front of me asks for Parcelforce I want to cry.  Long, long, forms need to be filled out by hand, in triplicate.  It is Dickensian.   Please consider taking a few minutes to fill out an online complaint (link below).  I honestly believe that an influx of complaints might make a difference.  I don't want to demoralise the staff or anything sinister but the PO needs to see that the branch is broken. https://www.postoffice.co.uk/contact-us/in-branch-customer-experience    
    • Couldn't agree more with the frustration. I avoid it like the plague but made the mistake of picking up a parcel a couple of months ago and it took them 20 minutes to find it. This was after queuing for an hour. All the pickup parcels were just in a massive heap with no order or organisation so they manually had to search for everything. Bizarre and deeply annoying as if run well it could be a good asset to the Post Office and of course the community. Also, very much agree with the point re not taking it out on counter staff as it must be a terrible and demoralising environment to work in.
