I read/heard somewhere that the extra rope in the eye was to mitigate the increased potential for shock loading. I can't really see how an extra foot or so of relatively static rope would make much if a difference though

This man saved lives when terrorists struck on London Bridge, he received multiple stab wounds while saving people, yet he's had no, or little recognition. I wonder if it's to do with his reputation?

Thanks to @green heart I have been converted - the Echo DCS2500 style clips are nice for high clipping and stowing the saw, so I've made a few for my saws. I decided theres no need for the lanyard to have a massive girth hitched loop, as the clip removes from the saw easily enough. This makes it slightly longer, less bulky and easier to clip. Its not the neatest thing as I was learning how to use sewing machine. This Stein lanyard gained a tight biner eye. It came with a twisted loop on the saw end so I cut one side and sewed it as a flat loop (hand sewn whipping twine for the strength). Not pretty but its strong enough. On the clone I have this longer green lanyard. It didnt come with a stowing ring so a while back, I added one. Today I added whipping twine to sew a tight eye at the saw end. Set up sewing machine to stitch the huge loop flat.

Boo, sucks. NASA just delayed the Artemis 2 moon mission because its giant rocket has a leak — we've seen this before | Space WWW.SPACE.COM The agency had been eyeing Feb. 8 for the historic liftoff. Now, it's no earlier than...

It felt springy on the last shoot (31st January). My mate, albeit in a gloomy mood, remarked that did it fjuck (but a couple of moments later confessed he’d just seen a daffodil tip). Generally easy winter I’d say. Last year was cold (slippery and frozen water for fowl) and the one before was that cold rain that dragged on forever. I particularly remember a particular act of desperation of going on the airport website to see if I could fly somewhere warm, like now.

Hard and unenjoyable watching but interesting subject. Who uses these day-to-day?

Does he screen it first and just rechip the oversize? Is there also a shredder in his yard? Can’t imagine chipping stuff ‘tree surgeons’ have tipped unchipped - a good way to wreck a machine quickly!

If you arrived to me and my motor was unfixable and your tablet didn't give you the option of booking recovery, but customer has it on policy, would you phone in or is it policy to get them to phone the office and leave them to it.

Yes, it has got into the drain twice already, once it somehow without damaging anything got under the manhole cover and grew into the drain blocking it, second time a survey found a dropped pipe which had happened previously, the roots had only just started to get in but that's been repaired.

Tandoori Chicken - phase 1.

We got given a box at the Albert Hall in about 71, cannot remember much about it but he wasn't bad. His style went more to his roots as he got older. I certainly understand how a rocking boppper wouldn't get excited with his music but for truly depressing Harry Nilsson did it for me.

It's the way the story goes. Thanks.

Could be right Zelvova serrata.

Hose pipe ban in 6 months .

You can test for that by switching the plugs around, if it works rollers reverse fine then you found your culprit as you have eliminated everything else in the forward circuit, one for next time.

That was residue from carb spray.. its the first time I have added photos, and I have duplicated a few..

Turns out one end is not 3/8 BSP, it's metric M18 x 1.5. I can see why the fittings are mismatched now. No one makes a coupler that is 1/2BSP on one end and M18 x 1.5 bulkhead fitting on the other end. More stuff ordered.

Last pic has a face and beard, almost like a garden gnome.

Cheers looks like you sorted it in very little time,,
