A "plinking" weapon for the UK

RE: A "plinking" weapon for the UK
Thanks Jonas for looking out for us and trying to help us out with a solution. That's really cool of you to do that.

Do you know the story of the man and the squirrel?

There is a man who had a bird feeder. Every time he puts food in it, this squirrel runs over and eats all the food. So the man, being a vegetarian and unable to morally kill an animal, places a bit plastic cone over the bird table base, so the squirrel can't climb up it and eat the nuts. The next day the man looks out his window and sees the squirrel on the birdtable eating the nuts. So the man sits there and works out an even better defence system to stop the squirrel. He builds everything in place and the squirrel is deterred. 24 hours later, the man looks out the window and sees the squirrel sat on his bird table eating the nuts. The man is furious. He sits down, for 4 hours and designs the ingenious system to deter the squirrel from eating the bird food. The man doesn't see the squirrel for 3 days. On the 4th day, he looks out the window and sees the squirrel, in his garden, sat on the bird table eating the nuts. The man asks his neighbour what's going on and why the squirrel is able to always beat him. The neighbour replies "For you, it's a hassle, and you spend a few hours trying to sort out a solution. For the squirrel, he has no other option but to solve the problem. He spends every minute of every hour of every day trying to solve, what for you, is just a hassle."

Although we've figured it out mate, we do appreciate you looking out for us.

Thank you.
