I dont think mrs traumadoc would be happy if I brought her home.

Its worth a shot Traumadoc, try it and let us know how u get on!!!:D

Rew

What ever mod thinks that is NSFW needs a new job!!

Traumadoc

Yes she would just about be suitable for work, but not home.

BigDuffman

ha ha I agree NSFW?! C'mon folks take a slightly less conservative chill pill.

Are those electronic hearing defenders any good?

Sparks

Yeah guys, that is NSFW. At least in every single office I've ever worked in.

Traumadoc

mmm..... explains a lot:D

Sparks

It's hardly all that odd Trauma - if you work in an office with both genders around, looking at pictures like that is generally a fast way to get a trip to HR. I mean, Rovi's pic there seems harmless enough to me, but HR... well, they figure it's this today and two girls one cup tomorrow.

Tried them today and wasn't convinced. They sounded much more false them my active peltors. For the price their grand. Forgot to look for any standards marked on them to see how safe they are.

I was in one of the Aldi shops today (got a bargin on new door handles for the whole house!) and there were no spotting scopes to be seen. they look the same as the ones that were there last year. Have one of those and its great for the money.

Looking at boards on work time is a fast trip to HR but that pic is very very tame. You would see worse in any paper when Dunes run clothes adds.

I see worse anytime I walk down Grafton St. Rew. I didn't say it made sense...

Slightly off topic, however, an opinion and a couple of questions.

I agree with you there. Why have a NSFW tag when one is not supposed to be browsing the internet during work time in the first place?

As for the very tasteful image you posted (and made me laugh) what is the difference with someone copping it over your shoulder on a monitor or you having a hard copy of the promotional flyer with the page open, whilst at work during your well earned lunch break?

And finally, why dosen't the hunting (Pics) forum have a NSFW tag?

Back on topic.

Did anyone buy the lingerie spotter scope?

I think rightly or wrongly HR would see looking at a shooting discussion board far worse than a picture from an Aldi catalog.

This is all NSFW.

Picked up one of the spotting scopes today. First Aldi were sold out. Got it in the second one I went to. Can't go wrong for 35Euro. Fairly robust, Carrying case. Good zoom.

You were unlucky....must have got a dodgy one..........I bought one last year and it's very clear at 100 yards ....couldn't fault it for the price.........it does what I bought it to do.
