    Cod 6

    If you have nothing better to do you can splice both ends of my Tachyon AGAIN
  3. If I'd have been the one in the motor and I got out to see him stood there puffing away, I'd have knocked him clean out
  4. My gas bill went from £350 a quarter to £50 a quarter when I installed the log burner. In other words I save £1200 per year which would equate to (as the original topic) 12 cu/m @ £100 Or 4 transit loads 5 landrover loads 20 dumpy bags I reckon I use 4 landy load a year
  5. At what moisture content do you want the calorific values for the logs
  6. No idea Bob. I just look at my yearly bill.. I get free heat so it makes no odds to me but some of my customers go through logs like no tomorrow and I sometime wonder (going off my gas bill) if they are indeed actually saving money
  7. I was going to make a joke of that comment
  8. Poor soul I feel sorry for you mate
  9. I've had quite a lot of calls from people I haven't sold logs to before enquiring about how much my logs are. Three or four have expressed how dear they think £70 a cube is !! Those three or fours phone numbers have been saved into my phone memory, just incase they ring me back end of season when all the cheap rubbish is sold I will then look forward to the telephone conversation. I dont mind people going elsewhere for cheaper logs, it's them making an ignorant comment about pricing of logs
  10. There's always a drum adjuster
  11. I think if I had to pay £100 a cube I'd get a gas fire
  12. Your reductions are always spot on Matty
  13. Got a new customer today who has been paying £100 a cube Really dry well seasoned stuff, but so is mine
  14. Slacken the cables right off then adjust using the drum adjuster, then tighten the cables up till there's a good bit of lift before the hand brake bites...about halfway up. It's important that the drums are adjusted first
  15. You need a landrover Richard.....will reverse up ANY steep narrow drive
  16. I cant believe you didn't reverse up the drive
  17. Cheers chaps, I'll have a look into it
  18. I think I may have to build a wall round my yard them !!
  19. Am I missing something here or has someone paid through the nose for second hand fencing panels Put this item number into ebay 260500500890 Basically 15 panels, 16 posts second hand went for £1300 By my reckoning thats £31 per metre
  20. Insurance or not you will pay for damage or injury The court will decide and either your insurance company will pay or you will pay if you have none. I would prefer it came out of the insurances pocket than mine
  21. No ! We have all wasted timber, but not 150ft worth of redwood which is prime timber and the sizes involved would have been well worth the effort. Watching heli logger the other day and the values of one 8 tonne stem were something like $8 - 12K Like I said, awful waste of timber in todays day and age I know it wasn't the owner of the vid that posted on here, but it would be nice for the owner to be notified to answer the critisism
  22. I'm hoping les Arcs again probably arc 2000
