Re: attacked by old codger!
 NO IT WAS NOT,(and you can keep your head down too Mr Bollam)! best i go to bed before I offer you youngsters a challenge you cant win,but heres one to try NOW.,can you get your foot behind your head,A can you punch break a light bulb without it swinging on its flex after. Have some respect for us olduns,we might be cantakerous,numb in the extremeties,half blind & incontinent when you least expect it,but we are still sensitive to the truth. Anyway,knowing what Spike is like I would have had it cut split & stacked for a good strong cuppa!

Re: attacked by old codger!
You've got to admit, he had some 'stones' hitting a bloke with a running chainsaw in his hands!...thankfully I was in a good stance of this could have been a 'old codger decapitates tree-feller - or the other way round' thread!. We had a laugh about it later. Had he been a younger man, I would have chinned him of course!
