I've given loads of people me address. If they come round and we like them we ask them in for a drink, if they come round and we don't, we shoot them

HE uses a manually operated Chaff cutter, but remember that is how he got those Lincolnshire Girthy Arms.

I'm afraid not Tom,

I have called twice, got an anonymous prerecorded answering machine, and left detailed messages with all my contact info on both occasions.  I have also called on a few other occasions and just hung up when the machine picked up.

I did note that the phone rang four times on every occasion before the machine picked up.

Well.. as a newbie.. this is a bummer for sure.  
It's Reid's youtube videos on his burnr that gave me the idea for my own killer meths burner.  
I hope he is OK.

If the man wants his Privacy, let him have it. I tried to call etc and had no luck. I think he has moved on to something else and for whatever reason he has, wants privacy,
If you like the man, give him the privacy he wants and if he decides to come back he will.
More than a certain number of phone calls etc and it could be interpreted as stalking.
