  2. Morning all, Frost here. Grinding lots of small holly stumps today. Stay warm.
  3. Wordle 1,612 3/6 ⬜⬜🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 💅
  4. So as someone who doesn’t suffer from TDS or Leftarditis why is Trump calling for the release of the Epstein files ??. Now I’m not defending or accusing anyone here but surely if according to SP in particular and the other TDS sufferers he’s the spawn of the devil and the worlds worst sexual predator he would not be wanting anything that would incriminate him released !!. I know you Leftards “ get it” but something doesn’t add up here.
  5. Today
  6. A sharp chain beats more power all day long . As above . The smallest , lightest that will do the job every time .
  7. 390 should be on .375 ( 3/8ths ) not .325 . Bar length 20,24,28 seems good . I have a Spud ported one .
  8. Yesterday
  9. You present us with a false dichotomy. Minimising the impact of AI doesn't mean we have to go back to a hand to mouth existence. I put my hand up; I want to go back 20 years. We had most of the gains to be derived from technology, without many of the risks. Equating AI with other technological advancements in history just doesn't work I'm afraid. It's on a completely different scale in terms of speed and magnitude of change to society and the world around us. I mean, what was the worst that could have happened from planting seeds, instead of foraging? It can't be uninvented, true. But it could be limited, curtailed, controlled or at the very least regulated to some extent. Non of that seems to be happening at present. It's just being foisted on us by a handful of mega rich twts seeking to make even more money from it. At the expense of us and the planet. BTW - I've yet to see anyone on here extolling any of the virtues of AI. How exactly is it beneficial to me? Or anyone else? Why do we need it? I'm quite capable of looking information up on a search engine, writing a job application or speaking to a friend on the phone if I need a chat.
  10. A Christmas treat usually! I'll have to try it with the sandwiches this week, depends if the ground is frozen over at lunchtime tomorrow maybe - I'll let you know what I think. Had to google that, yes brassica - also Wassabi which HR is often a cheap replacement
  11. Ah the “wrong “data is it 😂😂 and you know this how exactly?? you presumably have access to the “ right” data in order to make such a statement 👍post it up then. You seem to be trying a bit too hard sailor boy, maybe letting your personal feelings get in the way of facts and logic. If you really want the ecstasy of a pants round your ankles in front of your computer “ Gotcha “ moment you are gonna have to up your game big time.
  12. I’ve found the best way to keep costs down is to buy unseasoned wood in bulk and stack it yourself to dry. Also worth checking local tree surgeons, often they’re happy to drop off loads much cheaper than firewood suppliers.
  13. Frankly, it shows how fragile the notion of "freedom of expression" in the United Kingdom has become. We may not agree with his words, but the idea that we can be arrested just for writing this is quite disturbing.
  14. Hmm, this is a modern beat combo I'm not familiar with.
  15. That's really tempting. I usually shy away from the expensive jackets because I reckon they vary in rain resistance but all have approximately the same silky resistance.
  16. You need to check if its damaged. Its a bit of a complicated setup but IIRC you need to follow the wiring from the motor back to where it goes into the tube. From the tube it curls around the articled part and its the bit after that where the issue is.
  17. Never heard of them, but sub 12 I'd stick to air arms pellets as they're available practically anywhere and were always consistent and cheap. Most pellets are made in just 2-3 factories, H&N were making Bisley and a few others brands when you peeled the barcode label off the back.
  18. Probably did! £20 labour soon disappears once you take the machine in, tag it up write out the quote and phone the customer, usually several times, never mind repairing the thing. Hopefully it will help someone in the future if they come accross the same issue and this thread.
  19. A fairly recent auction of JCB odds and sods from the factory also unusually had quite a few lots that had come from a harbour somewhere 🤔 JCB are committed to the Hydrogen economy so it would not be that surprising if they had identified Milford Haven as the ideal place to berth ammonia tankers from sunnier climes.
  20. Of course... You're british,right?! 😁 Around here in Romania we have electric 2 wheel "things" going 90km/h on Highways... And it's worse the more East you "dare" to go... Basarabia/Moldova, Ukraine, God forbid you step into Russia... Anything is possible in Russia... Aliens are afraid to visit Russia... Anyway...
  21. Lucky it didn't get propelled up the chute. A good reason not to stand in front of it and to keep the truck rear window protected.
  22. Thank you all for your kind replies. Appreciate it! Photo attached. No TPO.
  23. Last week
  24. Sorry, this is a British forum (.co.uk); people here won't try to advise you. All we can recommend is finding locally appropriate advice. Good luck.

    ArbDogs? Pics!

    IMG_6112.mov Sailor just being a fine figure of a dog on the penultimate drive today. Tied up because he’d just tested my patience on some bloke’s labrador and I needed to drop a length of fencing during this one anyway. His best work went unrecorded because I was too busy laughing a rib out. Big field of waist-high dead peas. Woodcock up straight away. Then zigzagging like he knows what to do, three or four pheasants. I praise him and riding high on the adrenaline and my satisfaction he bounces across the field like a blesbok, springing three feet straight up and down, not in slow motion but as if the world just stopped for a moment to marvel at it. Magnificent. Pissed myself to the point I couldn’t blow the whistle.
  26. Can you give an idea of the day rate please?
  27. If you block the fuel inlet to the carb, just put your thumb over it and create a vacuum on the primer side, put some fuel pipe on it and suck you should not be able to draw air through, if you can you either have a hole in the pump gasket or usually a bad check valve.
