Looking for clean hardwood wood chip only no hedge cuttings or conifer.

Sort of but what's that got to do with the price of fish?

A fairly recent auction of JCB odds and sods from the factory also unusually had quite a few lots that had come from a harbour somewhere 🤔 JCB are committed to the Hydrogen economy so it would not be that surprising if they had identified Milford Haven as the ideal place to berth ammonia tankers from sunnier climes.

Just as I thought Alex. You are a posh boy with anger issues against the establishment. 😜

The new estate by my house had raw sewage leaking out and running down the street on Friday. Also not in the news.

Bit harsh mate, all they did was complain

Hey, jokes aside ,lattex/rubbery gloves are good for grip. 😁 A "kind of" good thing when in slippery wet conditions at 20-30 meters in a tree . I don't trust leather for grip. 🙄

I forgot to mention: for me ALL grease is "grease"... Since I'm "one of a kind" don't actually use lubricating grease on your leather jacket... 🙄 Grasso Foca from Reflex looks like this, and its synthetic(no animals got melted down into the metal box 😁 ). But first "production" boxes DID contain animal fat(best so far for water sealing leather clothes). You could also use rubber jacket OVER leather jacket and rubber pants over normal pants. But boots must also be covered in rubber or they will get wet(socks included...). And if you're climbing 20-30 meters in a tree in rain the rubber jacket must tight around your wrists or water will go straight into your dry clothes... Head covered in same rubber material, or else water will slowly go down your back and... you're wet in no time around your lungs... Pneumonia is around the corner not long(second day...). Same for the neck/chest area. Good luck! 🥳

Well there you go then Parker. Remember to put some pics up.

Rubber or PVC full suit. Leather jacket under that if it's also cold. But your boots+socks will get wet ,unless covered in rubber too. I can't see other materials tough and durable enough to resist pouring rain all day.

I've tried many synthetic jackets ,but many are just for advertise ,a lot of horse sht , even in motorcycling equipment... The longer you stay in rain the more chances are water will get in through somewhere... What I found it works is thick leather AND a good grease(animal preferably as ducks use 😁. ) or even synthetic. Grab a thick (at least 2-3 mm) leather dry jacket ,a cotton rag big as your palm a bucket of grease(I use grasso foca-Reflex) and start "massaging" the grease in that leather. Insist on stiches, that's where water gets in from my experience. Of course ,eventually you might get wet in a leather jacket too but it will take some time. At the end of a normal 12 hour work day in rain you won't be wet. But the jacket will be. You must dry it the time you sleep(if you sleep at least 4-5 hours). Not direct heat, just dry hot air room. Other issue is the jacket will protect you but the pants AND boots will also get wet... In extreme situations just a plastic rubberized "suit" might keep you completely dry. Not that I'm a "rubber sicko"/Latex fan but that's what will really keep water out from your clothes be it light rain or pouring rain ALL day/12 hours or more. Latex by itself is not as tear resistant as rubber. Keep that in mind. But a thick rubber clothing over the leather jacket will keep water out and the leather jacket will keep you warm. Also the rubber coat must be long enough to cover your legs until boots. Or all water will drip ON your pant and INTO your boots... Don't ask me how I found that out... 🙄 Cheers.

We won’t know unless they release the data you mong 🤷‍♂️that’s the whole point of the article ffs.

Is yours still doing what it says on the tin? @Mark Bolam

Of course... You're british,right?! 😁 Around here in Romania we have electric 2 wheel "things" going 90km/h on Highways... And it's worse the more East you "dare" to go... Basarabia/Moldova, Ukraine, God forbid you step into Russia... Anything is possible in Russia... Aliens are afraid to visit Russia... Anyway...

Lucky it didn't get propelled up the chute. A good reason not to stand in front of it and to keep the truck rear window protected.

So what facts can we pull out of this? Lots of use of "may" and "could", then the figures a million excess deaths in 2020, that's around 0.1% of the population and also included covid deaths!!!

Swazi. End of.

Get down there with your new air rifle Steve 🙂

I've tried most jackets and haven't found one that keeps me dry all day in really bad weather.. I've settled with 2-3 midrange coats and spare tshirts and swap through out the day. I think if you spend £200-£300 on an expensive mountaineering jacket it will keep you dry all day but id probably but a hole in it pretty quick

Thanks Guys, the only saving grace is I have an old unit that the bearings in the head have gone.. should be able to just swap the heads over if drying out doesn't work

Don't worry Gabriel, I only drove it a 100m along the pavement at 3mph and had someone walking in front to scoop children out my way, and I was sober, very safe!

As title suggests, i got very wet very quickly last week! my old jacket is now leaking like siv... (arbortec smock) what's everyone using in 2025? want something actually waterproof, not soft shell that is resistant for 10 minutes. if I'm climbing ill take the thing off regardless, so its more for ground work/ being out in the woods finding trees in a downpour! TIA

hope he has valid insurance. Even here in Romania a law has been passed to oblige all electric scooter, bicycles, etc to have a valid insurance... It's like a nuthouse anyway here... You could be on your merry way on a one way street and still encounter some electric "thing" on 2 or 3 wheels going 50km/h... On your way, as if you SHOULD expect some lunatic going the wrong way... And not one has a driver license, nothing regarding traffic rules... It's disgusting allready... Even in parcs or sidewalk is like that...

Epstein files: Who else was mentioned? WWW.BBC.CO.UK Michael Wolff, Larry Summers, Peter Thiel - who are some of the other names mentioned in the newly released files? Some of the documents mention Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, the former prince and brother of King Charles; US President Donald Trump; Trump's former advisor Steve Bannon; and a cast of other characters from the world of media, politics and entertainment, who highlight the extent of Epstein's contact book. Trump was a friend of Epstein's for years, but the president has said they fell out in about 2004, years before Epstein was first arrested. Trump has consistently denied any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein.
