there is a saying on Big Pine Key-(where the largest population of them live)
"if a deer and a human are in the road---HIT THE HUMAN"--- (the fine and jail time are less)
they are like big raccoons they get in your trash cans Ive "startled one" in my shed before --- (that made a mess) ---and had them WAKE ME with a cold wet nose-- while I was napping in my hot tub........

I played a 2203/2034 combination for 20 years. It was a miserable heavy, 8x10 rig.
I am pleased with my lighter, smaller 40 watt DSL40C'Ss. I have a monstrous, cutting tone, thanks in part to the 75 watt Electro-harmonix 12VR75 soeakers, tons of headroom, quiet operation and power to spare.
@Mitch Pearrow SJMP has heard my single 12 combo totally annihilate our former guitarist's Carvin 100watt tube full stack when he thought it would be fun to demonstrate his sonic superiority. Although i find volume contests ridiculous, i felt like putting him into his sonic place.
The stack gave him no advantage over my Marshall combo...zero.
I really have adequate gear, so i try to just focus on making more money rather than audition the next coolest amp or effect.
I barely smart enough to use what i have now.

I've obviously missed some of this thread, but this post piqued my interest. Good to see another Lee Enfield 303 (the old "smelly gun") lover. Known as the "smelly gun" due to the SMLE designation. This is by no means a rare gun here in Oz. Hell, growing up where I did, every man & his dog had at least one 303 & they are still readily available303 Lee Enfield, this is a rare rifle. The Canadian guy in the picture is one of the few left owners of this beast.
This is an Aussie made Lithgow mk111, the cream of the crop. Lithgow small arms rifles were made to tighter tolerances than their British counterparts & in action in WW1 & WW2 proved to be a superior & more reliable weapon. If your after one this is the model you want. Identifiable by the Lithgow mk111 markings, an early (WW1 model) shown here
& a later (WW2 model) shown here
Also made as a 22 Long rifle calibred "trainer" that was issued to school kid cadets here up until during the 70's. The "rare" model would be the 303-25 calibre sniper rifle. Cheers
