So let me get this right……………… the SNP are mocking May for the ridiculous notion that a sovereign country can go it alone?……………….do you think they have really thought that through??

Nah, you worry too much She is behind the chancellors U-turn and has pretty much told Nicola to grow up. If she wanted excuses to hold up article 50 she's been handed plenty, but no she has stayed firmly on track.
-
She was asked to wait until after the EU's 60th anniversary, would be pretty petty not to oblige, IMO.

may have to change my name to vespasian

Please excuse my ignorance, but are they not simply switching from camping to glamping? I guess they are hopping to generate more revenue.

Round here its not just through the winter Sorry just trying to lighten the mood My mother and brother both suffer to differing degreases with SAD (seasonal affected disorder) my mum used to use a very bright light, that opened like book, she put it on the kitchen surface in a morning, she found it helped.

Can I charge a lawnmower battery with a car charger ?
skyhuck replied to Aaron2010star's topic in Chainsaws
I have read on the web many times that dead batteries can be resurrected, but when ever I click on the link and watch the video it alway goes on and on repeating how great this method is, without actually giving the method, until I loose the will to live and no longer care, so I switch it off. -
Did you not read the whole opening post? He has found the product he was looking for, but has had to look over seas.

Yep, it appears the general attitude is "like it or lump it":thumbdown:

Indeed, but would the good suppliers in the "washed salad industry" support the rogues and bad mouth the disappointed punter?
-
You can buy ready made chips and washed salad, are dry ready to burn logs really beyond the wit of so many?? and an unreasonable expectation??
-
I can't meet my current demand. I really don't get why some have so little pride in their work? The effort required to produce a decent product is not much more than that required to produce crap. If you wish to supply crap thats fine, but advertise it as such
-
Are really that dim?? I find that hard to believe?? The man cannot fit the logs on his stove, do you really not see that makes them not fit for purpose. And we wonder why many look down on our industry………………..oh dear:001_rolleyes:
-
What if you did not have space for a cooker? Anyway he has now found a good supplier, the very supplier that many of those who are dismissing his complaints are always bitching about
-
Yes thats fine, but the OP has been buying and paying for seasoned. When you go to a restaurant you expect the food to be cooked and cooked well, if you found it was under cooked how would you feel if the manager suggested you stopped moaning and cooked it yourself? If you want uncooked you go to a shop, not a restaurant. The comments on this thread really do show there is a real issue with the attitude of many log suppliers, IMO.
-
If only it were that simple
-
The attitude of some in this thread simply back up the OP's description of the attitude he has encountered.
-
I think the OP is describing a very common situation. I see some appalling timber in pub's, it only burns as they mix it with coal. The reason it's so common and continues is the fact that so many people have no concept as to how good well seasoned timber burns. Many years ago I used to supply a local log seller, he would collect and deliver the split logs, he was more than happy to collect green willow and deliver it straight to his clients

An yet you felt the need to post

Watch "World's First Laser Rust Remover" on YouTube

You can blast with different materials for delicate stuff, I believe baking soda is good for car restoration. -

I wonder how they cope with paint? I presume they are simply accelerating oxidisation? in the same way as gas cutting. Blasting is good because it removes paint etc, if this just removes the rust but leaves manky paint on you're not much nearer really. -
Yes, I've just had a biggish job removing loads of leylandii, the last few, which where huge, were best accessed via the field. But the job was priced in october, only got the go ahead in Jan. Field sodden, so took the little 4X4 forklift and brought the timber out down a path. added about a day to the job, but thats life, if all had gone hunky dory and I'd finished a day early I would not have reduced the price.
-
Nasty! Not seen it on either myself, presumably you have advised removal?
