That is exactly the point. The BBC could never prove that Trump was the most corrupt US president. Especially as only one US President has resigned due to corruption (Nixon). It was unsafe and unprovable so it was removed. Seems fair to me. And yes I agree there is undoubtedly a degree of corruption in the Trump administration. And Biden’s and Obama’s etc, etc. And indeed the current Uk government, the previous government, and so on. Much as I sometimes hate the media, we really do depend on them to point the finger when there is evidence. But am I OK with them self censoring? Yes absolutely, if Trump has made them examine their output to see if it is accurate then thank Trump for that. Remember that as long as they can prove the accuracy of a statement they cannot be sued for it. The problem is if they start making statements or giving opinions which are disputed. We could argue all year about who was the most corrupt US President; but if you state that Trump said this and did that then as long as he did, that cannot end up in court. I do however agree that freedom of speech in the UK is being seriously undermined at the moment, but that is largely by our own government. The fact we even have a free speech union is shocking enough. And the examples recently of arrests for what people have said are state over-reach becoming very sinister. But the finger of blame points at our controlling establishment (government, police, councils, schools, universities) not Trump.

Another thing that properly boils my pith: When householders/gardeners historically tip their garden waste into the neighbouring woodland... it's blatantly and obviously fly-tipping (therefore illegal), but impossible to prosecute, without trip-cam evidence, or similar, I'd guess.. One Cheshire woodland I worked in has several hook-loaders worth of garden debris, from just five large houses (£1m+).. But two successive land agents haven't exactly done much about it, despite my questions.. 🤔 Gurr..

@kram I'm always impressed to see practical harnessing of 3D printers -and have a question/job for you: Is it possible you might be able to flex your entreprenurial skills, to make up an 'adaptor piece', to allow the handy 'flip-out' harness hook, from a dcs2500 to be fitted/screwed onto a top-handled 2511 saw ?? If it works OK, I would be happy to pay/buy one -possibly along with quite a few others on here, I suspect ? At, say, £20- each x a few hundred sales(?), it might be a little incentive to consider ? No apology for the Thread-derail -I would plead there is a strong shared common interest here, your Honour..

Have tried e10 in the chipper, if machines left (Honda gx390) I still get a fecking gammy carb, pipes then I end up putting a new carb on it after normal fuel, dunno.if its the local garage but premier fuel still has the same outcome

Sorry for not signing in this morning , My computer has had a failure of the bit that connects to the internet . On my daughters borrowed lap top now .

This is the current version, done by combining a few existing models into one and strengthening a lot. Possibly on the small side but very usable. Gave one to a climber but all his Stuhls appear to be 19mm nuts, so I'll do some of those aswell. 1764436352695.mp4

The EU is a busted flush APPLE.NEWS European leaders' failures on Ukraine are one more grim staging post on their road towards irrelevance Lot of hard truths.

Yes , also if the alternator wasn't changing.

The W terminal ( I think) on the alternator sends a stream of pulses to the control box, because the size of the pulleys are known the relationship of the rate of pulses to the rpm of the flywheel is fixed and the control box can stop (and slightly reverse??) the feed if the flywheel slows. RDS used to make a box that cut the fuel to the injector pump if the engine overheated or lost oil pressure, is this included in modern ECUs @Jase hutch?

Just had a look at mine and buggered if I can find it!

Bloody hell. Wick farmer hasn't had that aggro; he found a land agent to act in his interests who has been brilliant. Care to elaborate at all on 'plenty more to come for the Wick area' or is that not suitable info for here?

My humblest apologies; I stand corrected Gloria you wonderful machine you 🤩 You sound like you still have her (again)...?

It’s nuts, we have a chancellor whom has basically been caught lying, presiding over an economy going nowhere, an energy minister destroying the N Sea,and importing more and more oil and gas, happy to deindustrialise the UK chasing the fallacy of net zero, a prime minister grandstanding and determined to put underfunded and woefully short of numbers and ill equipped troops into Ukraine whilst refusing to listen to Armrd forces leaders about the actual state of the forces. Our borders are like a sieve, tens of thousands of worthless shite is being kept at taxpayers expense, people with no respect for our culture and in particular women and girls, whom carry out a disproportionate amount of rapes and sexual assaults, which doesn’t seem to concern the left, yet the main focus in certain deluded arrogant leftard mongs heads seems to be what the democratically elected president of America 🇺🇸 is doing on a minute by minute basis. There is a dedicated thread for TDS sufferers 👍👍

Gloria has the 14hp engine, I’ll never speak of her in past tense! 😢😂

Plenty more to come for the wick area. To get any compensation from ssen we would have had to sold the house for what we could get, hold onto the land for the next 5-10 yrs and go after ssen for what we could get, too old old and damaged for all that malarkey for another 10-30k. And sell the land separately.

Wick. It's a switching station built to receive wind generated power undersea from Shetland. To be fair the financial side of things hasn't been ungenerous to the farmer although the farming became a nightmare for a couple of years. Loss of the fields meant that the same stock was grazing less land which caused land management issues and two temporary access roads divvied the place up horribly affecting all 600+ acres of the farm

I.never know why they mulch trees 6ft off the ground to start with.. or we looking at unqualified hillbillies driving decent machinery

Speak to timberwolf / entec uk for exploded diagrams

Nixon and Clinton did the decent thing though and kept any corruption hidden. Trump is not even trying to hide what he is doing.

It does run off alternator on the late 150
