  1. As long as it is short Pete, I went two days to cheadle hulme once on the M60, the second through ashton and the back way, didn't make it any quicker either way
  2. Thats exactly what I said to the "police switchboard operator" Flytipping is illegal therefore a criminal offence, I'm not wanting it cleaned up, I'm wanting a conviction, isn't it the police that convict not the council?? "You need to phone this number sir"
  3. Softwood and hardwoods are defined by wether the seed is encased or not isn't it
  4. Its a farm track opposite my house, I can't understand why he did it, when he could have just put it with his refuse, they collect tomorrow in this area It contains food waste and packaging thats all..... it's hardly worth dumping two bin liners to risk a criminal record, strange man
  5. A BMW pulled up opposite my house today in full veiw of my cctv and flytipped. Armed with the reg number and video evidence I phoned the Police. "We dont deal with it the Enviroment agency do !" They told me.. So I phoned the EA They dont deal with it either, so I phoned the council, who said they will just send them a letter telling them to refrain from flytipping So deano took matters into his own hands, I took a still photo of said car and laminated it and wrote "this car flytipped these bags" and put it on the post over the road by the bags. I then put the security vid with his reg number on youtube If anyone knows how I can get his address from the reg number I will also dump the bags back in his garden and spread them round a bit then tell him to look on youtube.

  6. I prefer Richard Head if I'm going to change my name
  7. Problem there is, Ancient trees were once young and small, so if we dont look after and protect a proportion of the younger trees we wont have any ancient trees in the future
  8. True.... but I'd say its nowt to do with PULLING on a prussic
  9. I'm a bit worried about the gay pink cushions
  10. I only ever plot "counter" measures Robert, I very rarely make the first move
  11. We are evens now for you squirting tomato ketchup in my coffee when I had a hangover, I was that bad I didn't even notice Not a problem if you want to make it so I owe you one, I have a cunning mind and will come up with an elaborate masterplan.............. mmmwwwhhaahaahaaaa
  12. Sorry I haven't been on, broadband has been down in my area..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stevie, I knew how you would take it all worried that you may have upset Robert and Rich, thats why I PM'd both of them first to make sure they knew what was happening. Hahaha, I can remember a certain topping trees thread where everyone else knew it was a wind up except me Thanks Robert for joining in, you sound a bit like me, too soft hearted to get really toed in I hate hurting peoples feelings
  13. I'm stopping using the scabbard on my new hedgetrimmers, they dont allow the blades to dry if you put them away wet. Got them out this morning and they were a right mess, the blades are starting to "pit" they have rusted that bad, other trimmers dont have a scabbard and are still ok Can stihl put some ventilation in their scabbards please
  14. The hopper has to come off on the 150, it sounds a big job but it's quite straight forward, all the wiring just unplugs, just have two burly lads to help you lift and sit it on tressles, then everything is easy from thereonin, apart from you may need to heat the anvil screws to get them out
  15. Genuine tommy, apparently stevie has done some SAS training and knows some dirty fighting moves, reckons they wouldn't have time to blink before they were seeing stars
  16. Bloody ek Mick, at that price it's nearly worth me travelling down with mine if I didn't have work booked in. £431 minus £120 diesel I'd still have £300 in my back pocket
  17. I thought you had already seen one of Rich's Video's and one of Robert.s's fights I dont understand, you were telling me they were pussies and you were third dan and could take them with one hand behind your back, you now saying you were having me on ??
  18. I wouldn't do two up in a mewp Mick, your too close to your maximum basket load with saws etc.............just lately I like a good safety margin. Ask him to set it up, show you the controls and leave you to it.
  19. Can't id it with my book because you didn't photograph the underside and cross setion it
  20. I think it will turn up locally Penfold
  21. So now you've taken the top off, when are you going back to trim it up
