Happy Friday Arbtalkers 😉

Mornin’ all. Igor has taken to random sustained barking in the night (and day but that’s not an issue) so been up since 4.30 with him so at least the missus can sleep. Getting the new ranger sign written today. Then handing over the old one to the new owner, who happens to be my Brother-in-Law, which makes things easier. Lad will be splitting wood this morning.

I'm up as she is up! She only had a couple of hours then she has gym thing! Dedication! Some more job type jobs for me and I'll take her t'pub later! Tosser who shook hands on her Dad's car did a swerve which gets right up my nose, his number is blocked and it is advertised again..... Duly, Hand, Ruse.

I admire your faith in humanity Mark Bolam but in reality no we aren’t. A quite frankly unbelievable level of hypocrisy from the very two people who showed their true colours when the news broke of the death of a man whom they disagreed with politically. Or in one liars case a man he claimed to have not heard of until an “hour before” yet still managed to come to the judgement he posted below. Mark J’s words. He was a prick, stirred up a load of trouble and paid for it. You reap what you sow. Karma always collects. That post was liked instantly by the utter hypocrite Steven P.

always found in construction with disk cutters it was a lack of basic maintenance because of all the dust they produce

I had one on trial about 1.5-2 years ago. At the time it was called the akimbo max. I got one to trial as I had go funded the original akimbo design and Jaime had one floating around Europe so it was sent to me. it didn’t operate well in damp Norwegian conditions. I gave my feedback and passed on to the next trial candidate. it will be interesting to see if it is better than the first version.

You could get a job for eggs, selling cars, or caravan holidays.

Horrible isn’t it. Nearly didn’t post it but if we (the royal we) are going to have big opinions on things, we should have to really confront the ugly side of them. We should stare it in the face, raw, and then decide whether we still think the same thing as much as we thought we thought it.

We need to tone down the hatred on this thread. We are Arbtalk. We’re better than that.

That DSG gearbox is the dogs dangle things and at 140bhb, it gets on the way!

Great cars!

Has anyone given one of these a good go? Curious if the mk2 works reliable unlike the first one.

No - another pear

After getting the run about and swerve from a fu#*wit trader, the father in laws car is up for grabs. Low mileage and good history, good interior blah blah blah. Slight scrape on passenger side but otherwise mighty fine! 70k miles with recent cam belt, water pump and AC pump. Suitable as Arb runabout, climbers truck or family motor. Comes with invoices and two keys, viewable in the Retford area. £6,000.

Let me know if u get stuck,

Greetings from sunny Detroit! I’m looking for an opinion on two trees close to our house. One is a sugar maple with a concerning crack in the bark just below the “Y.” The “Y” has a spot that collects water and it feels punky when I stick a knife into the base of it. In past icy winter storms this tree has lost several large limbs. I’m thinking this tree needs to go. The second is a big sycamore that also has a punky spot in the base of one of the larger branches that hangs over the house. It has some dark spots on the bark at the base of the tree that seem to be leakage from the trunk. It has been a beast and has never lost a limb to storm damage but it would also do some serious damage if it did fail. Both trees look healthy with no large dead branches and the leaves look fine. They have shaded our house for decades now but if they are becoming weak I’d rather remove them now before they fail and damage the house. Pictures below. The two trees The maple tree from the south west The opposite side of the maple from the south east The sycamore with 4 dark spots on the trunk The large limb with a punky spot

There are some sick individuals out there celebrating the death of a man, father, son etc. I cannot believe some of the tripe I have seen today. RIP.

@5thelement It looks like a direct shot with something in the realm of a .308/.30-06 with a hollow point bullet. Bearing in mind these are very much capable of stopping a moose, and commonplace in hunting pretty much everything, they are going to, don't know a better way to put it, make a mess of a human.

They should use the Husqvarna K770 oil guard, no need for the expense of Aspen just normal pump fuel and oil guard oil, far cheaper option.

Ill give them a bell. Thanks
