  1. Are they noticeably cooler? Feel sorry for the poor lad having to wear type c's 😁
  2. I assume the ventilation are less stretchy?
  3. Adding to its extensive range of clothes and toys specifically designed for young children who love the outdoors, STIHL has launched a battery powered, fully functioning toy blower and brushcutter, giving young STIHL fans a child friendly power tool experience. Suitable for children from three years old, the design of the toy blower is based on STIHL’s popular BGA 57 machine, featuring three length adjustments to help keep the blower tube close to the ground for optimised blowing force. Not only does the trigger mechanism playfully reflect the operation of STIHL’s AK tools, but the toy blower also has a light blowing force for clearing a small amount of leaves, allowing kids to help out with regular garden tasks. The new toy brushcutter is modelled on STIHL’s popular FSA 57, featuring length adjustment and an adjustable handle to suit any children’s height and give them the best user experience. Offering hours of fun in the garden, the new toy brushcutter has added blade lights during operation, giving a clear view of the cutting diameter for an accurate ‘cut’. Both toy models feature cordless batteries that mimic STIHL’s professional Lithium-Ion range, which can easily be inserted into each machine and offers a power indicator gauge for an authentic cordless power tool experience. For more information on STIHL's extensive range of children’s clothing and toys, please visit www.stihl.co.uk.
  4. Looking for a pair of chainsaw trousers for my lad whose starting college soon. Has anyone used both of the above and can give a comparison please? Not interested in any other brand.
  5. STIHL has extended its range of service kits for chainsaws, which covers many professional machines, enabling arborists and forestry professionals to carry out simple routine engine maintenance themselves, ensuring maximum machinery uptime for the task at hand. Recently introduced for the powerful forestry MS 261 C-M petrol chainsaw, a popular machine amongst forestry workers, STIHL’s service kits make routine maintenance quicker and easier, allowing forestry professionals to not only maintain the optimum chainsaw performance, but also increase the tools reliability and longevity. STIHL's service kits contain everything needed to carry out routine servicing on a STIHL petrol chainsaw engine. The service kits include an air filter, spark plug and fuel filter. The kits also come with a QR code and short URL so users can quickly access how-to videos that provide step-by-step instructions for replacing the air filter, spark plug and fuel filter. 21 variants of service kit are available, covering the most popular STIHL petrol chainsaws as well as KombiTools, hedge trimmers and brushcutters. For more information on STIHL's new service kits, please visit www.stihl.co.uk.
  6. Try Forestry Contractors Insurance Wouldn't like to say what it would cost you. Its usually based on turn over, My last premium was about £400 from memory.
  7. Had my first attempt at decking yesterday so I’m actually ultra qualified to help as it happens 😀
  8. I know stihl sponsored something very much like this at Westonbirt. Might be worth pinging them an email
  9. Good thread, will be interested how you get on. I was offered a silly high price for my Navara as a trade in with Nissan back in March. Almost took it but glad I didn't, specially when the government announced the higher tax claw back in the following budget
  10. That was a rare sight in 1996! One for the wank bank for you I take it? 😀
  11. The whole trees turned brown? Can’t say I’ve ever come across that. 2 trees on the same site also seems suspicious, might be worth investigating further
  12. Those bulging columns of lighter bark is the tree doing what it can to fix itself. There’s nothing more to do on your part at this stage
  13. I'd have been more than happy to pay double that
  14. And 1.5 CRO back in cashback, double bonus 😁
  15. Just purchased a copy for my little girl. Will leave a review when it arrives, unless its rubbish 😁 Bargain price though. Will let you know after i've read it, but surely its worth a couple more quid at least.
  16. Id go with David’s doagnosis(he’s usually right). You can get some easy to use testing kits here https://www.pocketdiagnostic.com/onlineshop/pocketdiagnostic/phytophthora-single-2/
  17. Ok, didn’t realise that. the weight is a huge factor. I know a few nurses are they same the same thing, just about all patients dying form covid are overweight.
  18. Thought we’d been over this regarding Sweden. They are slimmer, healthier and far less densely populated than the uk. Of course they are not going to suffer the same. as for being treated like total idiots in the uk, many of us are!
  19. Where did you swipe that from Rob? Looks like something google translate has churned out
  20. Sadly theres people who read stuff like this, believe it, and share it. Some of the comments on Facebook are always worth a look.
  21. Reminds me of an old alcoholic In my old local. He was frail as you can imagine and looked like he would keel over at any minute. Landlord used to serve his lager in a shot glass as that was as much as he could lift 😂
  22. Yes you can sell it then transfer it to your bank account any time you want
  23. My other half scoffs at me too, doesn’t really understand it at all and thinks I’m just going to lose all my money. I’m sure she’ll have more interest and plenty of positive input when it comes to where to spend all the profit though
  24. Can't pretend I understand it either. But its plain to see that a lot of people are making a lot of money from it! I have seen it first hand myself with some coins I bought. I was investing small amounts at first, £30 here and there. If I had put £1000 on some of those coins I would now be sitting on £15000 on each of them. Pretty gutting, so now I purchase 1k minimum on each coin 😀
  25. true. Was supposed to fly a couple weeks ago but had to cancel after Italy introduced the quarantine for UK arrivals. Missus still made it over though. Not that it would have helped her even if I was flying with her though as my card only admits me to the lounge. Her and the baby would have to wait with the commoners 😀
