thank you for that, it makes much sense. I'm not used to this level of online conflict, I come from an era where you faced your accuser and reacted accordingly. simply put, "the way I look is down to me,, my attitude is down to those around me".

just as I thought more evasive questions, and no answers.

I know how,, the question was have you got something you want to say to my face. yes or no, or are you just gonna shout from the back too.. so who's "US"

why you already stated you don't believe me! who's "us" I don't get asked by anyone else. or you got something you wanna say to my face?

what I did notice, and have been noticing for some time now is the number of posts so elaborate and purposeful in their construction that it would be almost impossible for one not to notice that their main purpose was to antagonize a particular person, something they succeed at every time, I am also aware that anyone agreeing or even associating with said person is automatically ignored or equally antagonized even if they ask a perfectly reasonable question about saws, but think nothing about entering any thread with yet another similar post to get a rise from the same person. someone said a while back that the members engaged in this behavior would not be as keen to meet face to face and act the same way, they were correct, and there's a good reason for that. anonymity can give certain people enormous superiority as they will never get a punch in the mouth, in reality they got a lot to say,, usually from the back stirring up others at the front. I believe they are known as cowards.

but evidently quite popular with the mad hatter on here.

that feckin' Andy Warhol gets around don't he, I thought he was dead.

thank you, that's what I was planning to do exactly, now you have given me a positive example.

oh, evasive bullshite that you think makes you look clever, but just convinces me of every thought I previously had about you, you are just an unfunny condescending cnut with an unhealthy fixation on trump and just about anyone who doesn't agree with you. I doubt you know much about those saws, which in itself is feckin' astounding, as you think your the feckin' expert on every other subject under the sun. I'm a pretty neutral guy in most respects but you are working very hard to sway me from that. you are just as guilty of straying from the definitive subject of the thread, any thread, but of course that's ok 'cos your very "special" I don't doubt you could answer many of the questions asked of you but you avoid them, probably to bathe in the apparent attention it gets, there's probably a medical term for it, you are probably an expert in that field too. recent events in media have shown undoubtedly fanatics who display similar behaviors as you project are generally hiding something far more sinister.

I got 3 new saws to my collection this weekend, a Stihl 08, Homelite xl12[a real one] and a Lombard super lightning. what's your opinion on those, or any other saws . @SP

100% with you on the government issue, I'm not sure the current clown knows what balls are,, or who has them If I were given total control over the country it would make Vlad the Impaler look like Paulus the wood gnome. once the sh1t has gone we can concentrate on cleaning up the bowl.

That looks a well usable bit of kit, very similar to many of them, I have the cheap as chips Kelfri version as I no longer need a larger commercial rig, but my crane is tractor mounted, seals, bearings,tires, are generally easily sourced and replaced if needed, should you be unfortunate to bend or break anything it can be straightened, welded and made stronger with a little bit of back yard ingenuity.

por15 tank sealer, is different from por15 rust preventative this is the stuff , it's inside the fuel tank, not a lot of sunshine in there.

To be fair to them they both have dozens of employees, I spent 33 years doing work for one of them, I've done security work for the other periodically, they are responsible for giving a decent wage to all their employees, without that group they cannot function, some of starmers antics have made it difficult for them, but they take the hits so those they employ can keep feeding their families, and paying their ever increasing bills. so much for his bullshite about kickstarting the growth of the economy, feck off, kicked pensioners, kicked farmers,kicked businesses, believes in free speech, lets criminals out of prisons, locks people up for a feckin' tweet! spent plenty of our money on fecking' rubber boat cnuts, and plenty of sweet deal contract for his feckin' mates no doubt.

yes, but he isn't doing very well is he, even within his own party, we can attempt to change that, we do not have a choice of who the potus will be, I haven't met a single individual who is happy with our current pm. and believe me , I know a very broad group of people, I live between two millionaires, both are fine hard working families, they hate the bastard with a vengeance, but they don't spend every feckin' minute searching the net for dirt on him.

Its politics, as far back as I can be bothered to remember it has been rife with corruption, deceit, bribery, murder, extortion, blackmail, torture, you name it, in just about every party and country all over the feckin' planet. the way some single Trump out and ignore every other bent scheming cnut in politics, even those in their own backyard is not just obsessive, it's downright feckin' disturbing. a professional, qualified person might even say dangerous. the depth of disdain for a single person on the other side of the world must take up a lot of time searching for the next verbal onslaught. I dread to imagine what that level of obsessiveness would bring forth if they were in the same city, or even the same country. everyone is entitled to an opinion on anything, but feck me sometimes there's a list of posts by the same individual you have to scroll down the or go to the next page to reach the feckin' end of it. you don't like or agree with him,, we feckin' get it. Trump would struggle to write a book, everything he's ever done in his life,, you already told everyone. I am as guilty as anyone for straying off the thread topic, it happens on all forums, and I have been reminded often enough, but going back to the title of this thread, it was a question of who would win, trump or clinton, well that result was known for some time now, I looked at it from back at the beginning and several americans were in at the start, some pro trump, they haven't posted for some time now, maybe they are busy, maybe they just got fed up with the constant derisive references to their elected president. I guess we'll never know.

Here ya go SP,, a little something for the weekend. he'll have arms like feckin' popeye by this time next week

I'd happily put the cnuts through a woodchipper.

found a few pics, one of the cars I built, and a bike from my "Mad Max" post apocalyptic era. "The Toecutter,He knows who I am" the old cresta,purple haze 'cos I like hendrix, and the wifes '63 chevy pickup, with a '76 Camaro 350 hp motor.

My apologies Stubby, I had you in mind about the bike thread and put your name instead of GarethM. you are innocent mate. [ unless you live next door to lilylangtree] in which case build yer shed on yer own patch.

so to be accurate and realistic, this has nothing to do with a tree, but a boundary dispute, of which you claim has been verified and he despite your apparent proof of its true location he intends to enter your property and cut your tree down to put a shed on land he doesn't own. how am I doing so far? I'm seeing a further post by GarethM and I'm inclined to agree with him, a solicitor should be your next port of call.

never really thought about pics, wasn't so many cameras like these days, no mobiles, not much internet, photos generally were more in the realms of "evidence" for the case. might have a few kicking about somewhere, I'll try and find some. and yes, I have had a full life, some of the things I have done , looking back were pretty extreme too.

I had an addiction for speed,,, no not that one,, the flat out on a motorcycle or car kinda speed, I had a bike 155mph straight out the factory, after a while became boring, started tuning it got it up to 178mph, then built a car 0-60 2.8secs top end 150mph, it would beat a fireblade off the line, then fitted nitrous oxide, another 100hp, on cheater slicks it would lift the front wheels 2 feet in the air on a launch, mate bought a real projectile of a Porsche, let me have a go in it, 162mph still got a gear to go, another mate built a bike up over the year he got banned for ,,yep you guessed right,, speeding, had it on the road first day of the licence back 212mph through the traps, didn't catch this time ,fold up plate. I have a chipped discovery 2 now, on 35"s goes anywhere ,,in comfort, probably get a ton out of ,never tried. people ask me why did you give up speed? is it 'cos your old,? no, when the fear of death is greater than the thrill of speed. you just change your driving style. that and the wisdom to know everyone has a camera now, even the five o.
