Mick, at home, wearing this, protesting too much.

Any members had experience of 5th wheel caravans? Cost of insurance? Hints and tips?

Behave

Looks like the main bearing cage has failed to me. The big end hasn't overheated and that blackening on the lobes looks to me to be too much oil or overly rich running.

Someone post the most uncut footage available please. I can't be arsed wading through the waffling journos and portagriefs. Though while someone finds that, I might remark that it looks (from the crap video I've just seen) that it's a fairly open area. Park a car on him and save everyone's hearing. Right. Let's see a video.

I am sorry if I am on the wrong site, but I have searched the internet without success for an answer. My question is, that I have lived here for 25 one of the previous owners with my neighbour used some bird poo with a berry into my apple tree. So the mistletoe could well be over 40 odd years old. I always tell people that comment on it that it is male and never has berries. UNTIL……..I noticed some last week. I suspect this is unusual and more to the point how could it have happened. ? I have a couple of bird houses in the tree and lots of tiny birds frequent it. ( In the past they were blue tits, but I think it is a different species at the moment )

Its nice to be able to clip two carabiners on a ring if your working with two ropes, allows swapping between bridges easier and no real disadvantage that I've found.

We had a similar issue on a 150 and was an inline capacitor in the loom, needed an auto electrician to find it.

hi, hoping somebody can help. i planted a row or laurels a couple of years ago and during the summer, about 4 months ago, i was strimming the grass and caught the base of the tree. I don't think much of it but had a look and somehow it had stripped the bark all the way around about 3 inches up from the base for about an inch gap. A full ring! A quick google spelt certain death for the tree so I read on and found that you could bridge the gap and it may take. im not a garden person at all, but I delicately took a small branch, and began the process of bridge the gap. I also shaved the bark of the branch and made thin strips that a place across the gap. It looked a bit like a Frankenstein job but I had a bridge and wrapped the gap with fresh bark all within about an hour. I then proceeded to wrap it with cling film and taped it up waiting. it seemed to have survived, I figured it would last weeks but months later it was ok. This week I noticed it was the only tee with yellow leaves, with the exception of the odd area on the row of trees. Fearing the worst I removed the cling film and tape to reveal this..... I have no idea what it is. i quickly wrapped it again and then pulled some soil onto the base as I guessed they may be roots forming and be hunting down to soil. does anybody have any suggestions or is this a lost cause?

Somebody has to say it. Try the 'Whatsapp' app. 🤣

Not worth its own post, but spent yesterday making up half dozen of these for the local community woodland groups kids - scrap pallets, 3 left over bolts and a handful of screws. Folding saw horses so the kids keep their fingers protected from the saw blades a little.

Speaking as someone who bought a similar £70 top handle just for fencing so i didnt ruin my 020 , you are spot on mick.

Hi guys, What friction cord would you be running on this, maybe cousin armadillo 10mm?

Still and quiet today. Started to watch the Netflix thing about Ed Gein. What a sick bloke he was and I wonder how many more there like him who got away with their crimes. Odd jobs etc today.... Bow, Team, Murk, Beatrice.

Interesting, thanks.

So were back in business, electrics all sorted and made a few upgrades too. got the little McCulloch sorted, and got a McCuloch Pro Mac 6 and that's now running too. the 350 Husqvarna that I was not particularly impressed with has been rebuilt and I have to say as given some decent reports here has been given a second chance,, I have to say it's a lively little thing, and very light and well balanced. and I picked up an Alpina 70, and there's a Poulan on it's way to me soon. I may have to build more shelves.
