Fighting-age man flees country of origin, seeks refuge – NewsThump NEWSTHUMP.COM A man of fighting age has run away from his country rather than staying to fight for himself and his family.

He was 95, so not really sad. Robert Duvall has gone. Absolutely brilliant in everything , but in especially good in The Godfather.

That must have been a bitter pill to swallow.

Not stamped on the device, I'll check the user instructions when i get chance. It's pretty uncommon for friction devices to have an MBS. Generally speaking the safety factor for hardware is 5:1.

A Durham one has gone independent!

Not Ashes but Aus could go out of the T20 World Cup tomorrow without making the last 8; they've just been whopped by Sri Lanka. Come on Zimbabwe - we need you to beat Ireland (sorry on this occasion Ireland).

NFU put a 6m restriction on mine years back, so I had to move. I’m tempted to go back now tbh!

Yeah. Sorry. I was being pointlessly snide.

I work with somone that uses Business Choice Direct for PL. His was roughtly £500 for the renewal but has been with them a few years. I was suprised that many insurers put a height exclusion - apparently the first time it was 10m, he didnt read it closely and a customer pointed out, so he had to phone up and got it changed. Anyone else had that? While we have to have it, its not really worth the paper its written on!

That's the business they are in, easy bloody money. Being a broker, assuming most companies we deal with are brokers, they just wack as much money on as they think they can get away with.

Beat me to it Markie!

I’ve just received my renewal declaration from Trust. I doubt it’s going to be less than last year. Mate just had a £900 increase with his insurance company which he kicked off about so they reduced it to a £50 increase. Isn’t that just them admitting they were trying to rinse him for £850?

With trust here. Every year you now need to fill out a form detailing the different areas of your business and what percentage your turnover is of each sector. I find it tedious as nothing changes in my situation, bit like the National Trust asking for my tickets every blasted year, see the fecking email I sent you last year and forward it onto yourself you jeb!

Fyi I have been in the trees many years before I came to the farm, collage then prominent company before setting up my own show.

Mechanic found an exposed/earthed wire that controlled the injector. This was causing it to over fuel and spray fluid like Katie Price at a Man United Christmas party. He fixed that and it seems to run ok. He wants to fit original spark plugs and finish tuning this week. We will know if the engines ok when we put it in a stump. I am quietly hopeful.

Stayed with them in the end, told them straight been doing trees for 30 plus years no claims, and would take business elsewhere. Came back with quote only a little bit more then last year. I have £10m cover, Broker is Performance Direct, can't remember who I found them years ago, just they did advertise on here.

I was thinking yesterday I’d ask how he got on with the mechanic. Brighten our days, Mick.
