    One of my silicone turbo pipes popped off on the way into work this morning, not a problem, easy to fix. Pulled into the yard, pulled the handbrake on and the cable snaps! Don’t you just love ‘em…

    You could have a ‘members section’ which you could join – giving the impression that all the bad-payers will be revealed once your membership is approved. It never does though.

    If you dispel county highways, none! I know a guy who started one of the first price comparison web sites, I’ll run the idea by him.

    Agreed mate……. On an absolute whim I bought the domain name last week (thanks to SWB’s suggestion). His idea of a web site publicising bad payers was IMO genius. I realise that publishing financial details of late/bad/none payers would have allsorts of legal implications and to be honest not allowed. However if I was a serial late/bad payer and threatened with publication I’d pay up pronto, whether details were publicised or not!What do you recon? Good idea or a waste of money?

    We have a serial complainer in Worcester who lives near one of our parks. Every year he complains to us, even the local papers about the noise created by the blower. He’s insisting we rake the whole park by hand!!

    Morning all! I’m off on a hunt for my missing Christmas trees this morning. On the way into work my turbo hose popped on the Disco and if that wasn’t enough as I pulled into the yard the handbrake cable snapped – happy days!

    Not a happy bunny. The two 36 footers went up fine this morning, I’m sat here waiting for the two 18 footers which apparently are arriving at 6pm tonight. Pictures to follow when I eventually get home.

    Dude, collect as many different types of fungi as possible, collect them all together, then bake them in your oven at gas mark 6 for 3-4 hours. That’ll prepare you for the I.D test.

    I aim to please Stevie I hear we have two winners on the Euro-Lottery, I'm not going to check my numbers yet - going to day-dream all day about how i'm going to spend my millions! British pair win record-breaking share of £91m EuroMillions jackpot - Telegraph .

    Sorry for the late reply Dean - Above and beyond that’s en excellent advertisement for the power of a quality winch (you should post that on a Landrover forum, or even send it to the winch manufacturer) It must have saved you £££’s pulling it over in one like that, sometimes I’m too cautious, I would have taken 3 times as long swinging the limbs over into the field. Years ago I felled a huge Oak that was weighted all one way over a bungalow with a Matador. It was in the days before digital cameras, but there were plenty of farmers taking pics, I’ll ask around and see if I can track a few down. Nice job mate – I’m off to look at winches now!
