Similar to Dan, I've had an oregon can with stihl spouts. Don't need the spanner holders that fall out when you fill your saw. Bloody thing must be a decade old, replaced the fuel filler once.

... though they reckoned last week that the fledglings can do with some help. I am the same, will start proper feeding after Autumn. I've never read up on the myths surrounding the 10ft thing and rats - so guess what I've just been doing ! I reckon the 10ft thing is in specific cases, centre of the take away areas in town, farm animal food stores, docks, but generally your house or mine, they are far far away (more than 10ft anyway). Chicken runs - I reckon they pass by at night but arn't sitting waiting about 10ft away during the day. Made me think though, brought one of the trail cams in last night for a look and a charge, got birds, insects, deers, a couple of squirrels but no rats passing by - never seen rats on them either.. so all in, I am more clever today than I was yesterday, but 10ft from a rat is a bit of a myth

Alternatively, you can do it the easy way, with this blade on a Kombi tool. Faster than any saw on branches less than 75mm diameter, and doesn't have a chain flying off on fluffy bits.

Saw another review yesterday and, combined with the free battery offer ending soon, and somones comment that nowhere has stock, decided I do actually want one of the new XGT pruners, UC029. Sods law, the only show with stock is a bit more £££ so 255 spent, should arrive tomorrow by Drop Hide Lose. Reviews say it has a lot of torque and almost unstallable, so I am thinking it needs a bigger 3/8" sprocket for higher chain speed, 1.3mm bar and a full chisel chain.

Brexit? Stop immigration? Where on earth did you hear that nonsense? By Nigel Farage | The Daily Mash WWW.THEDAILYMASH.CO.UK YESTERDAY, I unveiled my grand new plan to end immigration forever. Yet people kept asking me about Brexit? Why, when it was unrelated to immigration in any way?

This ugly little fecker about 40ft up. Wondered why an adult pigeon bugged out at a million mph about a minute before.

Not really I see them at the usual (funerals etc) as we are the length of the country away. If my attitude to other nations is negative why would I talk to middle Eastern people, eat Indian/Italian/Chinese etc food, go on foreign holidays, I've been to over 24 different countries from Sri Lanka in the east to the Americas in the west and from the Falklands to the Kola inlet in Russia, but you think I'm negative about other nations. Not interesting, just stupidity or not understanding.

First time the 2.6’s have been together.

Afternoon, slept till 8.07am! I think most can appreciate the significance of that!😂 potter day looking at work, doing wee jobs that have been on the back burner, washing all the machines ready for the local carve this weekend.

Quoting a wind snapped sycamore over a shed, fences, a caravan and telephone wires tonight. Hope it’s still windy when I look at it. I’m winning that either way. Bang in my wheelhouse. Ideal job for the Pinkwinch too. He’s a mechanic or machinist so that’s some common ground straight away.

Thanks @Steve Bullman looked under my activities but can't see the hidden site!!? Should I be able to see int in the screenshot you entered in the chat above under "Here you go". If so, I get the following:

Oh dear you'll 😃, if it really have to ...for me id rather have a quick cutter over grunt , also depends if u want a forestry saw or more geared for tree work and dismantling. One size doesn't fit all,also recently tried other saws including an echo 4310 (i think) wasn't impressed with that . I feel husqvarna have lost their way now were on the 5 series and seems to be teething faults with certain models. I'm not tied to any one brand with saws and one might be good another might be crap . But the saws I'm currently running arent available anymore , All my stihl are gone ,all of the husqvarna are gone . I'm now running older none electrics echo , but compared to today's saws there ok. And efco /oleo mac ...old school series before everything got farmed out. Efco 156 is my equivilent to the 261, and efco 4100sp /4400 for the 241 ...gave fecking horrid back ache from that . But the efco and oleo mac last series were like the husqi 2/3 series ...I'm hoping ive enough till i retire

I'd be keen to hear your feed back should you ever demo/buy one

Plenty sites here https://arbtalk.co.uk/recycling/?nearby=20&lat=51.312059&lon=0.032802&category=0&country=0&state=0&specialization=

I can't see it being an issue. Only if, by some unlikely coincidence, you decided to stack the recently felled limbs on the ground, next to one of your trees, in poor health, for several months. So hardly likely?

They'll put him out to pasture. He'll be unfit to stand trial on anything when the time comes. All the useful idiots who voted for "The Donald", handed America to JD Vance and his chums.

Because I'm only in it for the money , .I also turned down the chance to fly around the world with trant civil engineers doing airport surfaces ,but I didnt have enough info to make that a viable option either..hate to do it then get stung with a huge tax bill. If it doesn't pay enough I'm not interested to be honest . To be also straight -I'm not keen on Oz,new zealand, usa or Canada.

Inonotus hispidus?

Finally someone who can sharpen a saw properly!
