  1. Interesting point to this thread.... What do you take in yours? Me? Hot water only - but I always had supplies of tea, coffee, packet soup and a sachet or two of hot chocolate! Spoilt for choice then....
  2. Fair play to you all! Fantastic news for you and your family....I hope life goes well for you....Happy Xmas!!!
  3. Pete Morris at Cotgrave, Roger Lander at Moira, West Coast at Mansfield, to name but a few! When I can, I'll send you a pm with better details or ring me on 07774 282481.......
  4. Acorn are looking for 12 staff to service the 5 year contract that they have in Peterborough. Contact rt400, or call 0800 093 3898 and ask for Kevin O'Rourke.
  5. I still come across machines which do not comply with H&SE regs, I hope you new machine does....
  6. Or putting your hand into a circular saw doing logs! Was a mess at the time but works okay now......20 odd years later.
  7. If he did make it himself, then it carries many features a design clues of a Chinese chipper! Just about everything else he does comes from there.....
  8. I saw these a while back..... Please.... stick to the Main stream....
  9. Bigger than the last time we met apparently! How's you Ian?
  10. Some fat bugger who is looking his age! To be fair, I had a dose of man flu that week and I never was photogenic - even in my prime!
  11. I thought that I would lob up a few pictures from the recent GreenMech Factory Tour which seems to have well received by those attending. I decided to post them here rather than in "Pictures" as they are specifically to do with machinery!
  12. I thought that the usual places (Barrow and 'Sorrel) would be shut, but where is that Ben? I see that the A6 at Hathern was shut and it was wet by Zouch and past The Planks at Kegworth. Only the second time I recall it wet there since 1982..
  13. It was one of the (many) things my ex wanted to cite me for in the divorce!!! Unless it can cause sleep apnopia or marital grief then why bother trying to change? My girlfriend hasn't complained even when I drown out the TV!!!
  14. If you can avoid the floods - get along to this event and see the GreenMech range and have ago on an RTV or ATV.
  15. Bob's toy box is the best and fullest in the West Midlands...and quite varied too. I remember selling it to him and has barely used it. I wished I'd known because I've had to borrow one no and again to demo to someone else....
  16. Rare as hen's teeth but not expensive to buy new....
  17. GreenMech:sneaky2:
  18. Did I read somewhere that you have to serve in the forces for some 20 years to get a good pension but serve only one term as an MP to get a full pension?
  19. Tractor - the engine of the Volvo 240 turbo / ??????? - ?????? - YouTube Mental Volvo 240Turbo powered tractor!
  20. How far into Cornwall? You could ask Dougie Bennett at Tavistock Chainsaws if he has one or knows of one. Try Highway Plant and PD hire if they know too. If you do call Doug, say "Hi" for me.....
  21. I think that that is a fair and reasonable price. Afterall, the guy has had to drive from Spilsby with one for you to try, he has invested in one as a demo machine and like all here present, has to make enough to pay his salary and put a little aside for a rainy day. Believe me, he isn't making a ton of money out of you....
  22. By the looks of, no....is there an agri forum to ask on?
  23. GreenMech are teaming up with their dealer for Somerset, Devon and Dorset at the West Point Arena for a woodchipping/off road ATV event! Free to all with refreshments provided between 10:00am and 15:30 on Tuesday 27th November - that is next week! Come along and see/try the range of GreenMech woodchippers with the area sales rep, Julian Cullis and have a go on a Kubota RTV or a Honda ATV on the specially built 4x4 off road course!
  24. We have had a few Colleges ask to come and these are being arranged as a separate thing. The day is still going ahead with only a few places left. Send a pm with your details to book your spot! No ticket, No Entry! If your name isn't on the list, you cannot come in!
