  1. I don't read the Mail, or any other paper on a regular basis, listen to radio 4. But the article listed here seemed a fair portrayal of the facts, so I really don't see your problem????????
  2. Only people who do not read all the facts.
  3. I don't, as I don't have AIDS or Asthma.
  4. You may never wake again, in fact you may not want to
  5. I find it hard to stay awake after my tea, I often have a coffee in the evening to help me say awake if I want to watch a film or the like, I can fall asleep at lunch some days. I need about 7 or 8 hours per night and am asleep within minuets of getting into bed, it would seem I am quite lucky.
  6. What to.............. gas and oil, not such a good move,IMO.
  7. Don't feed the animals:scared1: If we don't watch they won't be there. I live in hope.
  8. I have radio 4, listen to it all day on my radio head phones and always know the time.
  9. I just can't understand why Americans are so BIG!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  10. Sorry to disappoint, no record here
  11. Porridge for me, plus two coffee's in the house and one on the way to the job
  12. Nice Reg! A joy to watch.
  13. You could just fit a transit body and tipping gear, if its a long wheel base mog, which a 1300L is.
  14. I evacuate the drop zone with ease, I rev my saw and gesture with my hand and my groundie, who is a top man, will stay well back until I tell him its safe
  15. I used to believe that, but now I think that faith is the ability to ignore fact in favor of things you WANT to be true sorry.
  16. I was not going to the AA, but now I don't know???????????? Bugger !!!!!!!!!!!!!
  17. This is why I got my mog Dean, as I have said before with a 3.5 tonner your over loaded by morning brew.
  18. I love things that take the hard work out of the job, and do things I can't, like lift a 3 ton lump of timber. I really don't think a MEWP would speed up my working day like my mog and crane do, and a MEWP cannot do any thing that my rope can't. Plus climbing is fun, humping logs ain't,IMO.
  19. You become a very good shot with practice And with cut and chuck the pieces are much smaller than with rigging so if something does go wrong it is much less likely to do much damage. I think as for wear and tear on the body, its a balance between maintaining your strength and wearing yourself out, IMO, cut and chuck from up the tree is much less strain on your body than dragging brash and humping timber on the floor.
