Marmite!!

Just got in & it didn't happen, just recorded 3 hours of a geezer painting a wall :roll:

Yeah sorry if it turns out to be a complete waste of time. I've never watched the channel before. I was just looking through the channel guide and saw this channel which i thought was a new channel so had a look to see what they showed.

 

Well it's on the on-screen program guide :dunno: the channel was only launched on monday http://www.mk-tv.tv/press.shtml not a very good start & no program guide on their website..

Will try & record it but at the moment 12.22pm it's still not on, just one of those advertising epics on at the moment..

This is good stuff and precisely why an online service works so well.

 

Here's the link for reporting the items.. click the email us button at the bottom of the page & it will take you to the correct section..

If you look at these lots you can see where he's printed them on a home photo printer, the white line on the right hand edge is a giveaway.. he should at least learn how to set his printer up..

Mark,

Just posted this question to the seller:

 

Be interesting to see what, if anything, the reply is!!

I sent him a msg too.. here's his reply..

Hi there,

 

Thanks for the info. I'm being bombarded with emails with the same info. I'm pulling it tonight.

 

Regards,

 

Derek

As I've said before, what's the point of a chat room :dunno: it kills forums & all the useful info is lost...

ok anything anyone knows of this please help

 

1973 may off to lydd/hythe ranges

 

what was it a Taxi?

 

No, a Target :whistle:

So they were presumably used for training to allow automatic fire.... learn something new every day! Probably not what was used in the execution though......?

 

Probably not used but would produce the same recoil though..

So what would be the point? I must admit, I've never heard of such a thing. A military blank round is just that, a blank, and produces no recoil at all. A .303 ball produces plenty!

 

They were originally used in the Vickers MG & Bren which was fitted with a shredder, they are still about too.. frightening as recently some re-enactors in the States have been using them in bolt action rifles..

Fired alone - you're probably right but fired in volley I think it might be harder to tell, esp. given the target and thus the likely frame of mind of the poor sod pulling the trigger...........

 

They were probably wooden tipped blanks so there would be little difference.. & without a shredder could still kill anyway..

to post photos you can to use a photohost like photobucket.

http://photobucket.com/register.php

When using Photobucket or similar you should have a page like this once you have uploaded your photos:

http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e132/safariswing/photohelp.jpg[/img]

what you need to do is highlight everything in the Img Box underneath the photo you want to post then copy & paste it in to your message, your photo won't appear untill you post or preview it..

I've heard he swings both ways Tony ...................WW2 and Post War :whistle:

 

I bet Jack's wearing DPM's now.. & all the webbing :whistle:

 

I starting to think that it is best that I do not go shouting my mouth off about Post War vehicles over the weekend......I like living :whistle:

 

 

I'm sure the WW2 owners won't hold it against you when you tell them that you want to buy a bit of post war kit :whistle:

Hi Ya Steve, you took your time speaking mate :-D

 

No! you took your time replying.. Steve posted the message on September 18, 2005, 22:35:35 :whistle:
