  1. I missed that. Great article Colin. Nice to have such a vocal advocate!
  2. When a variagated species starts to revert to normal pigmented growth, it is usually a sign of stress. The lighter shades of green in the leaves usually photosynthesise at a lower efficiency, hence the reversion is a method of increasing productivity
  3. The gunmakers want the rootball of the tree. Furniture grade timber is usually in demand by the timber merchants
  4. I use a small keyring type krab as you can see in my pics. How are you finding having the prussic so short/close? i left it long enough to maintain a bit of space between the different sides of the rope
  5. well another weekend successfully tamed. Party was cool, and only burnt the rice! now my hangover has gone i suppose i'd better get my crap together before work tomorrow:smokin:
  6. What is the fault developing? is it a carb issue as 200t's have had issues with these recently

  13. Thanks Steve. Interesting options. I like the rescue scenario, or for the big saw. Not sure about using it as a lanyard, but will give it a try anyway
  14. C is allround, and A is front only. I read the same and made the conclusion that it is a recomendation only, and have read that same phrase in several places. Type C is for cold weather only!

  21. Looks a nice bit of kit Ed. I love the dodge 50's serious workhorses and usually reliable. Does it have the phaser engine?
