Hearsay and outright lies. All this stuff has been thoroughly debunked years ago, and new smears are easily exposed as the hit jobs they are. For example. Remember that woman he was convicted of raping? (by a kangaroo court set up specifically to kneecap him). She's a nutcase. Check her bio. Twenty five plus years and she never brought charges. New York conveniently changed the law to allow for statute of limitations exception for civil charges of rape. Very conveniently indeed. Almost just for her. She had "impulsive relations" with Trump in a changing room. Then lied twenty five years later and "remembered it differently". Then sued him for slander for calling her a lier. And won. In a corrupt political court. Paid? Who knows. She got something out of it. Revenge for not being a Mrs Trump, maybe. if someone falsely accused you of something, and you called them a liar, how would you feel if they then sued you for calling them liar, and won? You'd feel like justice was dead and buried. You'd feel like there was a political conspiracy against you. And you'd be right. Well, this is how Trump's supporters feel. They see it plain as day. This is why none of the media manufactured scandals have dented his support. As for the people who believe the media nonsense, they cannot be reasoned with. If they still buy the tabloid narratives after 8 years, they're not going to change now.

Procrastinate? I was hoping for a scatter and stamp in kind of thing. Clover, flax, wheat etc.

Thoughts on who sabotaged the railways just before it kicked off? Russia? Ultra-lefties aided and abetted by Russia? Got lots of fingers in lots of pies and long arms has old Putin. Allegedly.

I didnt think of it like that, but yeah, He could save so many lives and save the US billions of dollars but hes not gonna do it, well just not yet, apparently.

Sounds like you have a mark 11 ring, you are not going to get that ring into that piston sir.

I love (hate) those shop owners that start the week with a target of how many people they can belittle, usually wrongly. The gun trade is appalling for it. I called round a few shops and smiths the other day to get a very, very ordinary operation performed on a rifle. Half of them I might as well have told I was going to get their daughters pregnant with black, labour voting triplets. Or even said something disparaging about their dogs. Miserable bastards.

Never quote off a photograph. Say 1.8 long x 1.1 wide x 0.5 high, would be 1 cubic metre pretty spot on. It's softwood but you've sawn it all up, seems fair enough to me.

Fair enough, down to the design of the engine I guess.

Looks nice, what wood did you use for the handle?

You thought about the Iveco Arb truck? Slightly more expensive but comes with all the extras as standard. We looked at the Grafter but there just wasn’t enough room or in cab storage for us. theres a video demo on FB, here’s the link Facebook M.FACEBOOK.COM

I said it’s a bit quiet in here, are you deaf?

Cutting for a 951XC and it can handle that like it’s nothing. Pretty impressive.

I'm in the UK for a week doing a few garden tidy jobs for my folks. I flew over Ryanair, so I didn't bring a single thing with me. They've got a few tools available, but no saw, so they asked the fella across the road if I could borrow his for a couple of days... He brought it round earlier, and after a few minutes of jiggery pokery we got it working... I've never used a 171 before, and I've only just spotted the plastic dogs... That is absolutely f*cking adorable! 😹

Jeez, would you not buy a girl a drink at least before you try and slip the finger in?
