    Jokes???

    Researchers have discovered why women put on weight once married. A single woman, after a night out, returns home looks at what's in the fridge and goes to bed. A married woman, after a night out, looks at what's in the bed and goes to the fridge.
  3. I had an early zt1844 when they were cheap, few niggles, one within warranty but didn’t take the warranty claim further (brought from global, I’m in Sweden) sold it a few years back with 200something hours, engine went bang about a year later with not many more hours expensive belts, worth having a spare of each
  4. One things it’s not and that’s the “ Far Right” we have heard a lot lately about the rise of the far right yet here we are in familiar territory. The antisemitism that Labour allow to fester and Starmers tolerance and pandering to certain groups will not be explained away by some weak mealy mouthed waffle that no doubt will follow tonight. Just watched Starmers pathetic speech, a single mention of a vile individual 🤷‍♂️
  5. member After some advice/opinion, I’ve asked on the yank forums with no success. I have has Raycos to this point an RG25 now an RG35 (wheeled) and consider them a well built reliable tool. I’m looking to replace the 35 and am looking at a very low hours Bandit back in the UK, on tracks. New is out of the question because things are scandalously expensive in France, and no dealer in the UK will sell me one and support it if it goes abroad. My question is, will the Bandit be a better grinder than the Rayco? it’s got 3 more horses because it’s fuel injected, smaller wheel, but looks like a better system for replacing teeth. I want better, can live with comparable, do not want less effective. Any advice, informed or not very welcome.

  7. I had no idea they were so recent tbh. Live and learn.
  8. Today
  9. That's just a fat Boris Johnson, now, that would be a way to clear the hospital beds,
  10. I guess we should get the terminology right. It’s a strimmer if it uses nylon cord. A brushcutter if it uses a blade Problem is that most have interchangeable heads.
  11. I was not aware of them when I bought a first brushcutter in 74. I experimente with wire rope but it fatigued almost immediately and span off. I first became aware of nylon cord strimmers from a jack Hargreaves program on the beeb TV. Probably a couple of years later.
  12. Yes strimmers were a very common tool in 85.
  13. I got let down last minute and am looking for someone with up to date (passed or refreshed within last 5 years) felling certificate (small trees is enough) and valid 1st aid+f. Job is in Cumbria, Duddon Valley starting on Monday 6th of October for 2 weeks. It's felling and processing Larch trees for future milling and peeling on site. Message me for details. Thanks Peter
  14. 1976. I'm sure they were around in 1985, but I was posing a question to any older farts as to whether they were in widespread use then. I wasn't taking much notice at the time.
  15. What an attractive male nurse, I hear some of the women ones include a gravitational field.
  16. You don’t think strimmers were around in 85? When were you born out of interest?
  17. Nice pun. Looks like a classic strimmer bite to me. Not sure if they were in widespread use 40 years ago though.
  18. I think you're 50 years too late for that mate. Most look like this these days.
  19. Great news! Good luck with it mate. Nurse pics please.
  20. Hard to tell - I’ve seen the video but not sure how to upload here?
  21. I wondered if there had been a historic ‘incident’ that this stems from.
  22. Echo cs2511wes is really light. All other saws may be a bit lighter than 550. But feel about the same. And if work is intermittent, than 550 is a treat for starting and restarting. Has decomp, purge bulb, auto tune, you name it ).
  23. That’s not my research. Don’t go on rigs Dempsey. DSV is what I work off. Ripe coming from you ya miserable cynical old bugger.
  24. You missed out being stuck on a rig with you, that’s not going to help anyone’s mental elf.
  25. Two dead and suspect fatally shot by police after suspected terror attack at synagogue in Manchester APPLE.NEWS ITV Granada Reports Correspondent Ann O'Connor reporting from the scene in Manchester Tragic but all too familiar. The police at the Liverpool incident were at pains to point out it was a white male. Be interesting to see how this pans out.
  26. Thanks guys! Angioplasty finally booked in for tomorrow morning - it’s been the waiting around and the boredom that’s been the hardest thing to deal with tbh. Staff have been great, food not bad considering 👍
