  1. " Firing the parts cannon"
  2. West Coast is nice,work almost all year. Always vacancies In Vancouver but it's expensive to live there and not very social. Save up some money,get a work visa and head over in the spring. Trip around and find out for yourself. Definatly get your HGV and trailer licence before you go.
  3. This is the one I was meaning. Wee.no WWW.WEE.NO Wee Gruppen only comes with 4.5 meters of wire but easy to connect it to some more. Be alright on the right jobs.
  4. I saw an advert over here for hand held battery driven wiches. Looked pretty small and pulled 450kg. Be quite the tool for outsiders if you had a few of them to do.
  5. That's not what you want to do. You load up the back even more doing that ,higher chance it drifts off the stump during the fall too.
  6. Have a trial of not leaving a step between the bottom of the gob and your back cut. It seems to make them tip easier. No that it would have helped much on that last one.
  7. You don't always have to put the jack right at the back. If you know it's going to be tough. Cut your jack seat halfway between the hinge and the back on the side the lean is favoring. When you have cut that corner our put some weight on the jack. Then keep cutting out the remaining quarter putting wedges in as you go.
  8. Would you consider yourself to be in the later camp?
  9. Someone who likes cuck porn? It wasn't a term I was familiar with myself until Alpha Andy came up with it. Googling " cuck" was disturbing.
  10. Christ the irony. If you consider me to be a cuck,would you consider yourself to be an Alpha male Andy?
  11. Me too, Kiwi and Norwegian
  12. Oh I get it now. Mr Muscle Car and Johnson Big Guns are afraid of black Willie's. Sad really,just learn to use what you have.
  13. How do you mean?
  14. Relocating the migrants to big cities would I think have minimal positive effect. Seeing that there are likely to be existing ethnic communities. Equally it would be unwise to relocate the migrants to sparsely populated regions,better to settle them in market towns and larger villages where they would be more likely to integrate.
  15. Some of the Fjords here were breeding themselves out. Seriously it was that bad,before most people had their own car it was very difficult for them to meet non local suitors. To the point there were papers where parents could advertise their daughter to other parents In order to meet young men " utenbyggs " .
  16. Another very positive aspect to immigration is the diversity it brings to the gene pool. When African men sire children to Anglo-Saxon or Scandinavia woman,their kids are generally more robust than the local population.
  17. Be stranger if he knew what Andys ears felt like.
  18. Might have been?
  19. Nope Two guys I know ,know you or your face at least.
  20. No! he said " fuck me that's asbestos, not seen him in years!" "Asbestos" I asked " was he fireproof?" No he chuckled," Special precautions were needed to work with him"
  21. I was talking to another guy who knows you today.
  22. I have seen all the life jackets donated to the Red Cross. The former state oil company stepped up with some barely used ones. These will be distributed to the faciliators in france along with pre payed phones for the migrants. It's not much but if it saves just one life it's worth it.
  23. If I scream at the Internet loud enough,will those numbers change? Or should I divert the discussion by telling you all how well I have done?
  24. We should. Alot of these immigrants have the kind of fiber the majority of British young people lack. Pluck,courage,determination in the face of adversity. Boats full of the very minerals that endeared Brown Bear Grylls and Ranulph Fiennes to the British public.
  25. So you have dodged my question twice. In their position,with scant resources would you. A: put yourself in another precarious position by stopping in the next stable country. B: Try for the best option possible.
