petroleum coke is tempting and some smaller suppliers do sell it by the ton(around 400 euros) but the quality is debateable as is sulphur content... It's not the same as from big suppliers who actually make it in their own refinery like Rompetrol... Although at 8.7 to 9.8 Kwh per kg ,its more than enough for a small stove 😂 See for yourself Packaging is 13kg or 20 kg bags. Burn time (their statement/word) 10-12 hours... Better than coal briquettes, nevermind oak or wood briquettes...

Crank up the big diesel server, Steve. This bandwidth’s about to get busy.

I didn't ask tonight, just got a beer in any glass as it was so busy! I'm not a glass snob but would accept a new glass if that is what they have to use!

I would worry if my saw was blowing out sparks like that! Unless it was a cutoff saw or a customs or pol8ce saw gaining entry.....

We (the syndicate that I beat for, 2-5 birds per gun, per day usually) don't have a keeper per se. They have work parties and a feeding rota and one of them is the farmer. I'm starting to help out a bit. Gleaning what I can. I should broaden my horizons to some other shoots really. Was asking one of the busier beaters last weekend about the local scene. He suggested Sailor might remain restrained on some of them, depending on my appetite for admonishment.

Honey rum here. Kids left it out for father Christmas. Excellent choice on their part. 😃

I orderd a 15 in K041 format, I received a K095 Mount. The seller is sending me out the proper bar and a return label. Am telling you, Ireland is no joke, just about everything goes wrong.

I have been using my RRP for months so I climbed on BDB yesterday and it reminded me how bloody brilliant it is!

Ridgeline smock is designed for hunters and fishers. Brilliant! Anything designed for Arb is poor quality and very expensive. -

Building on the success of its popular SG-40 series, Bandit has introduced the new SG-40H hydraulic-driven stump grinder, designed to reduce maintenance and boost efficiency for tree-care professionals across the UK. The SG-40H features a side-mounted hydraulic cutter wheel drive, eliminating the need for periodic belt maintenance while providing consistent grinding torque. Its 47-inch cutter wheel swing can be fitted with either 16 Greenteeth Bandit or 24 Hex Teeth New Revolution wheels. Powered by a 40hp Vanguard EFI petrol engine and equipped with a heavy-duty track drive system, the machine delivers superior mobility across soft or challenging terrain. Additional features include electric cutter wheel engagement, generous fuel and hydraulic capacity for extended operation, a three-position pivoting control panel, and intuitive joystick operation for maximum visibility and precision. Compact dimensions make the SG-40H ideal for tight or confined work sites. Edward Baker, Managing Director at Global Machinery Solutions, commented: “These enhancements make the SG-40H faster, safer, and more productive, meeting the needs of professional tree-care, landscaping, and grounds maintenance operations. “The SG-40H takes everything operators love about the SG-40 – power, reliability, and intuitive controls – and enhances it with a hydraulic cutter wheel drive. This reduces maintenance and increases efficiency. “It’s a real game-changer for UK tree-care and landscaping professionals, and we’re proud to be the exclusive UK dealer for this innovative machine.” -

I called Sailor off a deer chase this morning. At distance, at speed, well committed. IN FRONT OF A WITNESS! What a result. The scene on a different, more atmospheric day. It’s remarkably nice now.

Its an interesting conundrum. Id say in the UK, fear of theft etc would deter companies from prominent 'yards'. Everywhere I worked when in the UK was hidden in an industrial area, or down a farm track, never outward facing signage. Here in Canada, theft is not an issue, but you never see big roadside advertising for tree firms, I do wonder if it would be helpfull though, put the company name in peoples heads. Truck signage however is very effective in my mind. I wouldnt know how France differs, Id be tempted to give it a go for a year maybe 2 and see, its only a lock up, not hard to move into and out of.
