    Norway

    If your going to camp take extra clothing I camped at gardemoen in July one year absolute baking hot by day and freezin cold at night we drove from Norway to cambridge NORWAY-----SWEDEN ferry across to --DENMARK--GERMANY then to the hook 27 hours norway to cambridge if your going to drive and you have time taking the bridge from copenhagen to Malmo in sweden is such a sight . that is the route we took on the way to Mantorp park then headed north to Norway and stopped of at Carlstad (HOPE I SPELT IT RIGHT) a large lake in the middle of sweded with good camping facilities.The rest of the Drag racer s were all there rebuilding engines etc etc
  10. Id agree there think he did the polo shirts us at santa pod there still going strong .BTW is that where you from Rushden
  11. just been looking in a MAPLIN catalogue you could get a solar panel battery charger .dont know how good they are . then fix it to the trailer , battery then charging while loading:001_smile:
  12. you wont damage your battery leaving it plugged in other way you could tip your trailer if getting flat battery is to fit a 12v power suply to back of truck then carry a short lead which you can plug to the trailer then using the truck battery to tip . split charge relay kit is easy to fit though you can but them from most car discount parts shops with all fittng instructions
  13. Agree with you there totally im a time served bricky , i have general builder on my card, but i will only build the shell then arrange to get tried and trusted trades in for the rest of the job. i also dont advertise only have a sign on my MOG and always seem to have work to keep me and 1 other several months ahead
  14. can you not adjust the clutch on the slave cylinder it has a locking nut then you can adjust the amount that it presses the clutch lever on the gearbox
  15. what about a piece of lead cut and dressed over the edges
  16. there s another tree company here that i know have a large quantity of wood if your still looking Acacia tree surgery . Ive recently built an extension for the guy who does there survey s he was telling me they had so much wood they may have to get a BIG chipper in to clear it. he estimated few hundred tons laying on a piece of ground they use for tiping
  17. they had a large heap mixed wood all ringed i have a mobile number for rebecca who we dealt with if you want me to pm it to you
  18. i went and collected a big trailer load from "zenfordinner" earlier in the year unless they are to far for you to go
  19. if you get tuck on this winch try http://www.winchrepairs.co.uk
  20. i had a Ramsey 8000lbs hydraulic winch fitted on my 900 it was a good winch had the benefit of being able to lower as well as pull, that is the only disadvantage with a PTO winch they usually will only pull. i now have a werner pto winch fitted great bit of kit
  21. mine was 140 for first 3 years then 100 per year
  22. what annoys me the most about this is the fact the council and the police were riding round here in cambridge stopping at every jobasking for a waste licence. which at the time i didnt have but i still pay and tip any waste.then they serveds me with a £300 fine telling me i needed to apply for a £140 licence even though the waste i was going to be carrying (concrete and bricks) is a totally free tip
  23. I looked at the rippa disc.was hoping to buy one but wasnt that impressed when i watched the vid.The roots they cut seemed to take too long i think i could dig and cut with a good axe quicker
