because it’s a forest tree

51 actually

I learnt that word from you eggs

Evidently i do forget a face otherwise i’d probably have thought “there’s that prick from arbtalk” as you dove past. This has turned into our own little thread, hope your enjoying it as much as I am

ahh the plot thickens…. are you sure it wasn’t another fat bloke?

that’s not very nice eggs. Thankfully I was aware that i was getting fat as i wasn’t really climbing any more so made the effort to get off my lardy arse and change my diet, start swimming and working out again. Not only do i feel great physically it’s done wonders for my mental health. maybe some exercise and a lifestyle change would help you?

less of the fat, i’ve lost two stone

Nice to know your thinking of me eggs. What's it like having me living rent free in your head?

kinda, the local tractor fitters (20 mins away) have got quite a comprehensive range of stuff so occasionally il pop down and get an odd fitting to make up a hose if i haven’t got one in stock and usually get half a dozen so i’ve got them if it goes again in the future. i’ve resorted to cutting fittings out of old hoses to get myself out of the shit as well but it’s a pain to do and a don’t like doing it. obviously you’ve got to outlay on the machine and all the hose and fittings but once your up and running the cost of making a hose with two fittings and 1m long comes in at about £7.50

I think if you run kit you have to end up being handy on the spanners. Id never be able to afford to get someone out to do everything. Last year I bought a swage machine and loads of hydraulic pipes and fittings so now we do all our own pipes, the time saving is massive.

nice of you to join me on the “list” of people that have annoyed him on the internet

careful he’ll get angry again

i know 🤣

Most of my machines have their own grease gun which goes out with the machine, just buy whatever cheap one the local ag place has in stock at the time. Got a Milwaukee battery one when doing machines in the yard, but as with all things they have a time and place

Calm down eggs. The last thing you need is to have a funny turn, because a man on the internet made you more angry about something you were already really furious about.
