  1. Excellent advice! Also when you call,you are selling yourself,so write up exactly what you want to tell the prospective employer.Have someone you trust proof read it and then practice reading out ,untill you are comfortable and sound comfortable with every word. All the best mate.
  2. Yes Pete it has.Its 25deg,I have a cold Beer in hand and am planning a Hunting trip.
  3. Please explain the words in Red.
  4. When the Rope Freezes it is more difficult for it to bend through the Wrench.I ended up having to bounce around on the rope to try and get it to run.
  5. Word. Big up´s and props to Rich and dem slamming bredrins.
  6. There is not much you can do about Cordage freezing.Even with dry Ropes,the snow sticks to them,your hitch melts the snow and it all ices up. I was using a Rope Wrench yesterday above a VT on a Single line and it was hopeless.The frozen Rope wouldn´t bend through the Wrench. It would be great if the Petzel Zig zig gripped and didn´t ice up so much?Time will tell.
  7. He would have never gotten stuck in a Landrover.
  8. That is very good money for the right Climber in New Zealand.Hawkes Bay is a fantastic place to work and play, especially if you enjoy Hunting,Diving or Fishing. Quite honestly if I was working back home,I would up sticks for a opportunity like this one.
  9. Pretty much straight away. Depends on how you spend and where you spend it.
  10. I appreciate that Johnski. I need them off the shelf and in the post Asap.If I can find them like that great,if not I will send you the dimensions. Thankyou.
  11. Relax Tony. Its not over untill the Fat Lady Sings.
  12. Was it a real Gun though? Shouldn´t those be ileagle`
  13. Hello Recently I broke one of the Feed Roller Tension Springs on my Jensen 340.Can anyone recomend a Stockist of Springs in the UK?My Google investigations have revealed little in the way of Heavier Springs. Spring is about a foot long ,by 3 inches relaxed,with coned ends that hold a Bolt.
  14. We shot a Shoe together didn´t we Mick,and unlike an Animal a Shoe has a Sole.
  15. No,thats just silly. The crackling effect comes from the Aviation Fuel that burns the pigs after the Helicopter they are flying is shot down in a Surface to Air Missile test.
  16. If they used Horses instead,then presumably one could shoot it numerous times and more Medics could have a go?
  17. Would you not prefer someones Pig dies in order to learn skills that might save one of our Sons? The reason it crept back in,was probably because there has been a real shooting war for the last ten years and its more pertinent now than ever before. Bet the BBQ´s are champion on excercises these days:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
  18. On a quiet morning,sharpen the top of your workmates Silky Saw using a Bench or Angle Grinder,replace in Scabbard and wait for their appreciative praise the next time they steady their pruning stroke by lining up the back of the Saw with the Thumb or their free hand.
  19. Brake Cleaner or Brake Fluid takes the Sap off the Cooling fins well.
  20. Are new parts unavailable in the UK?
  21. I need to buy some of the Fiber plate like liners that are inside a modern Wood Stove.Is it possible to buy sheets of it and cut it to fit? I received an outrageous quote of £150 per 12''X10'' Sheet. I have tried searching on Ebay and Google but am unsure of the exact name of what I am looking for.
  22. PM me your number mate,I am at the misus house.No skype
