The super prof is a great machine. 18hp with a feed roller and will shred up to 4” happily. I bought a year 2000 one last year and I’m looking at replacing it with the newer tracked version. The only fault I’ve found is their cost vs other small chippers.

Over the past six or seven years I switched to boas with all my shoes, I will never go back. It's just priceless not to deal with strings on muddy job sites with the stumpy, or opening the shoes one handed while balancing the groceries in the other when coming home. After maybe 2 years of 70-80% daily use, the wires tend to break but the warranty service by boa is fabulous and taking 30 minutes to replace them is still worth it.

Morning, it snowed last night but seems to be melting a bit. A lazy Sunday here. Have a good day guys

I'll have some lazy days lounging around the cafe soon, I've 6 days off still to take before christmas. Good to hear about Igor last night 👍

Morning all , Sorry to have made you angry Jase 🙂it was out of my control mate ! Chilly start here , Happy Sunday ,

Considering the CS2510T had to be recalled due to occasionally going full pinto, the cover I have to replace every few years isnt bad.

The bottle that I've got is clear also. Just had a look online, and they reckon that Castrol removed the pink dye from their motorbike engine oils last year. I'd say that it is a genuine product, no need to worry.

I've been using Castrol Power1 2T, a motorcycle oil, for the last year or so, from Amazon, sold by Amazon. Its got the correct spec for chainsaws, API TC - ISO-L-EGD - JASO FD Previous bottles have all been red oil, this new bottle is plain undyed oil. What do we think?.is it fake or have they stopped using dye? Castrol POWER1 2T Motorcycle Oil 1L : Amazon.co.uk: Automotive WWW.AMAZON.CO.UK ‎

I got a Road Angel Halo Pro at Costco. Good image quality and you can easily download footage to your phone, also has an SD slot that takes up to 128GB cards. Only issue I've had is mounting the rear camera upside down.

He looks quite content there.

Ditto.

I automatically paid my blokes from 8 until 17:30, if I took on jobs two hours away, that was my choice and not theirs so they got paid! I didn't have a 'travel' rate and labour rate.... I did once deal with a contractor who only paid 'time on site' and wondered why folk signed up!

Yes, I think you are both saying the same thing here, if the BBC (or others) report something then they have to be able to stand by their reports as accurate. A correction should have been made, and it was. but.... shouldn't ever happen. Control of the press has been the tactic of tin pot dictators through history - any countries leader that is honourable and able to defend their actions would never control the press like Trump is trying to do... the BBC will be wary of any critical pieces from now on, which is a bad thing. Noting that the UK - according to the World Press Freedom Index (Wikipedia it) - ranks about 20th in 180 countries, the US is about 60th - British journalists are afforded a lot more freedom to report than their US based peers. Perhaps Trump doesn't like that much either (that last sentence was of course, an opinion). But that goes back to what you are both saying, our national press needs to be trusted. It also needs the freedom to report - accurately - as it sees fit. One last problem is that while the press organisations have standards, more and more people are getting their news reports from social media - linkedin, facebook, bebo and so on - who are not obliged to uphold any standards and what is posted there should be seen as opinion pieces only. Very easy for them to push an agenda by what articles they promote and there is little control of that (see the last elections with Cambridge analytics (?) doing that). At least the BBC is kind of unbiased with their reporting (some reports are biased one way, some the other but as a whole, generally neutral). Back to yesterday though, (opinion here) Trump is milking this presidency for all he can get, far more than any others did before.

I can have a look, do you have a photo or two of the DCS2500 hook? I've not yet used one and I am not finding a good pic on google. On the DCS does it have a seperate lanyard ring or does the hook replace that? I'm happy printing stuff just cover the postage.

Don't tell anyone but I stole a load of oak boards last week. Quercus robber.

Have you thought of the fibreglass live line rods with a saw or parrots beak sniper? Each rod is 4ft long and I regularly had a stack of 15 plus upright!
