Also a problem with pigeons here, but no squirrels.

Are grey squirrels, not just rats with a posh suit ?.


Take care.
Yes they are

You need to get word out to all the take-away shops that GREY squirrel is a great alternative to chicken tika, chicken everything and just watch the GREY squirrel population fall. Make sure they are told RED squirrel are rank poison and should be avoided like the bubonic plague. What exactly has been donated to make a donor kebab

Right, changing the subject a little, I've snapped up another excellent deal on Amazon!

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000H6W726

It's to shoot the bloody squirrels that get at the food on my bird feeder!

I've tried a water pistol, but they quickly realised it doesn't hurt, and just sit there getting wet.
Try a flame thrower, you get rid of the squirrel and have a hot tasty snack to hand

Thanks for all the helpful comments
Decided to use my bus pass, which effectively cancelled out the post and packing, and because I could examine the items. Bought two lenses. The 28mm A f2.8 (mint) and the 135mm M f3.5 (exc++) both looked and felt when on camera, brand new. Add to that two free filters and 6 months warranty and I think it was better than taking a chance on ebay Of course now I have to read the manual "Using an M lens on a K7" section

Was looking at a photo of the inside of a 135mm "A" pentax lens and there appears to be a hole in the flat frame above the aperture blades is this normal in this lens? Is seems partly hidden when lens is wide open but can be seen fully when closed down.
