In France atm where it was a bit cooler this morning so lots of birdsong about 6.30. So i launched the Merlin app and got the following (in no particular order): Blackbird, Blackcap, Robin, Blue Tit, Wren, Song Thrush, Chaffinch, Greater-spotted Woodpecker, Pigeon, Firecrest,Woodlark, Golden Oriole, Pied Flycatcher, Chiffchaff, Goldfinch, Hawfinch, Short-toed Treecreeper, Crow, Nightingale, Grey Wagtail and Garden Warbler. Pleasantly surprised but have to say I probably only saw 7 or 8 of them !!!!

MPs vote to proscribe Palestine Action as terrorist organisation NEWS.SKY.COM The legislation was passed by the vast majority of MPs. However, several argued that proscribing the group "sets a dangerous precedent for political dissent".

With TBE at least there’s a vaccination available. Unsure if it’s effectiveness however when I worked in the Black Forest, a ‘red zone’ for tbe everyone I worked with had the jag. Only heard of one fella who got tbe and he was of course unvaccinated… can get the jags through the nhs but have to pay for them. I’ve had Lyme disease twice now and tbf the docs were great at admitting their lack of knowledge around it. Handed them a load of info on it and they were happy to go with my preferences then

Sorry I am not quite sure what you have replaced already? Have you bought OEM part number 1129 350 5850 "Tank Vent for Stihl 020T, 020" (photo below)? Buy this and everything should become clear. This part comes as three separate parts, which get combined and fitted together. Your top photo looks like the middle metal part of 1129 350 585. Your next photo looks like the innards for the plastic part on the left of the photo for 1129 350 585.

You are deluded SP, you should have said “ I rarely if ever answer questions “ that would have been very true.

Designed for professional use, STIHL has launched the new BRA 500 and BRA 600 battery-operated backpack blowers, with maximum blowing force for clearing large areas. The two new battery-powered machines provide high air speed, with a maximum blowing force of up to 32 (BRA 500) and 35 newtons (BRA 600), available throughout the entire tool’s operating time, making them ideal for removing heavy, wet leaves quickly and efficiently. Users can also regulate the required blowing force by selecting one of the tool’s three levels using its digital control, with an additional boost mode available to achieve the machine’s maximum power. Built to reduce strain over prolonged use, both tools have a comfortable carrying system which distributes the weight of the machine across your shoulders and hips, allowing for maximum comfort. With STIHL’s Noise Reduction System built in, the machine offers reduced noise as well as a tuned sound to make them less intrusive when used in public areas, allowing professional users to work productively at all times of day. As STIHL’s first 72 V professional machines, the BRA 500 and BRA 600 draw energy simultaneously from two powerful AP System batteries. For maximum working time, STIHL’s AP 500 S battery packs are recommended. Complete with an LED display, which details the mode the device is working in and battery charge levels, the tools can also be incorporated into STIHL’s Connected digital fleet management system. The Connected system provides a detailed overview of all relevant machine data and provides the option to reduce the tool’s power remotely via the STIHL Connected app. To facilitate use in the rain, both the BRA 500 and BRA 600 are IPX4-certified To find out more about the STIHL BRA 500 and BRA 600, visit www.stihl.co.uk. -
I did this with my Chinese top handle and it would not run at all after. I had to strip the carb and clean it all out with carb cleaner before it would offer to run.

What makes you think BT or the electricity people own these gubbins? I repelled an attempt a few years ago to steal my meter. Gave them a bit of fixtures and fittings law. I bought a house with something screwed to the wall. That thing is mine. Likewise my house came with some wheelie bins. Some joker had written ‘council’ on them. No no no. My chattels.

A woman went to her doctor, for the baby's 6 month check. He weighed the baby, checked it's reflexes, listened to its chest and asked lots of questions. "This baby seems a little underdeveloped" he says. "Is she bottle fed or breast fed ?" "Breast fed" says the lady. "I'll need to examine you" says the doc. "Could you strip to the waist please?" The woman agrees, and the doctor feels her breasts, rubbing and stroking them in every direction, before cupping them both in his hands. He makes a few notes in his files, before turning to her. "I'm not surprised your baby isn't thriving" he says "you dont have any milk !" " I know that" says the woman. "I'm her grandmother......but I'm f***ing glad I came !"

I was reading something the other day about fixing a Makita drill trigger. So there are at least two people in the world who’ve had that.

I'm blown away by how good this is! I've used quite a few BG86 and BR800's. It is not a BR800 but somewhere between the two! A lot nicer than a petrol blower to use.
