  1. IMO, elections are generally lost, not won. Clinton was so hated anyone going against her would have stood a good chance. The fact that he did not win by a landslide (or even lost the popular vote) suggests he is by no means popular, just the lesser of two evils. But the hysterical reaction to his every move is just childish and could actually end up boosting his popularity.
  2. "If your gonna do owt fa nowt, do it fo thi sen or thi mother"
  3. They are proper wrap around, I've only ever had three panels.
  4. If I ever have a problem I generally just change the nipple.
  5. 1400 is only 7500KG GVW, 1600 is same size, but around 11000KG GVW.
  6. I've used the red Stihl stuff in both our 550's with no issues.
  7. Any group against something are going to be far more proactive than the people who think there is not really a problem.
  8. Have you ever actually tried burning conifer??? Its excellent fire wood once dry.
  9. I quoted, but must have been too expensive I did go in pretty high as I'm too busy to do it really.
  10. I'm pretty sure Trump was not on that plane.
  11. More hypocrisy Considering some of the people he has welcomed, people who are behind real abuses of human rights
  12. No, he said "they let you grab them by the pussy", when taking about women fawning over celebrities. This is the kind of miss quoting thats being used to try to discredit him.
  13. I think you have misunderstood, I am certainly no fan of Trump, he makes my skin crawl. But I get sick of the lies and exaggeration that are being used to try and discredit his every move. And the competitive outrage is pathetic.
  14. Sorry I omitted the word "not", my bad
  15. It's the establishment, he's one of them and they don't like it.
  16. It a ban on countries who refuse to share vetting information. After 90 day if the countries agree to share the information the US want, the ban will be lifted.
  17. If you think it's blocked my advice would be, remove the bar and chain,empty out the chain oil, pour in a little fuel and then gently rev with the bar off. Take care as the fuel will pressurise, especially if the saw is hot. Once fuel starts coming out of the oiling hole carefully remove the remove the fuel, refill with chain oil and check that's coming through. Always works for me.
  18. Yes a bit of bent wire should get it, what's you trying to get it for?
  19. I did not realise RHI could be transferred.
  20. Is having good security and insurance cheaper than the taxation cost of a decent police force?? I don't know?? We are a rich country, having all your gear stollen is horrendous, but in reality it is still a first world problem. We will not starve. Our children will not die. Until we decide we want to pay FAR more in tax and get the benefits that that would provide we will always have struggling public services, its a result of the age of the individual, where the right of a transgender person getting a sex change op takes precedence over care for the elderly or a decent police force. Who knows were it will all end???:confused1:
  21. Is that a reading from the middle of a freshly split log? I would expect the outer inch or so to change relatively quickly with the ambient humidity, but find it hard to believe that the moister goes in very far, very quickly. I also think deferent woods will behave very differently. Our home was very, very damp when we first moved in, it had never be properly heated. I fitted a huge out door boiler and many extra radiators. I heated the house 24/7 for three and half years, before it became dry and no longer needed heating in the summer. We have solid walls, with no cavity. I believe I had to completely dry the walls from the inside out, when the walls were damp capillary attraction brought rain water into the walls, once dry any rain only penetrates into the walls a little and then finds its way back out the same way when the rain stops. Water normally follows the path of least resistance.
  22. Has anyone ever actually done any tests to show this is actually the case? It take a lot longer than a few weeks for timber to become dry, is the reverse procedure really so much quicker?
