  1. Sounds like the Oregon bio oil I'm using Even tastes quite nice
  2. I love Hardknot in the Landy. The Duddon valley has changed so much in the last few years with the clearance of the plantations and the re-naturalising
  3. Only hit the big 50 this week so still a lot to learn The young buggers on their mobile phones have been turning me into a demonic ogre for more than half my working life (or so it feels)
  4. A training excercise to show that "covert" sticks out like a sore whatsit Doesn't exactly blend in with its surroundings
  5. Your old school boss knew your value to his business . The new boss is new and is working in his modern efficient way. Don't be shy , treat it like a job interview, show him that you are worth your pay and if he doesn't like it then a neighbouring farm will do.
  6. I wonder if he's bailing or baling , with our strange weather either is possible :-). He could even be a cricketer or into corporate re structuring ;-) . No idea on the poplar either
  7. That's the ideal way to work it , other than those that complain about the noise & the other buggers who think you want to work through the siesta in the middle as well
  8. I run a 300 amp Miller. It is a re-badge Panther ;-) . Kubota powered and very very well made. Does 110,240 & 3 phase. Japanese built with a dealer that exhibits at the big shows.
  9. Could you work with the local canal volunteers ? They all seem to own a tirfor or two and view it as "normal" ?
  10. I learned that if you want more than one pint of ale you've got to start early on day one.
  11. It really looks the part at The Chippenham Folk Festival I'm sure it will attract people onto your stand, quite relieved that the girlfriend won't see it
  12. Looks a lot like the Ben I trained with nearly three years ago :-( Was that his anchor point snapped out on the pavement ?
  13.  

    <p>Evening :-) </p>

    <p>As you're on here you may be able to satisfy my curiosity .... who is agg221 on here?</p>

     

  14. Personal first aid kit (including whistle) & rescue knife is a good thing to have on assessment days Got there before me ! Good old 3 rings Richard
  15. No , Gardenkit is the man for wading tractors
  16. With a soupcon of Oxygen for your MAG welder Happy new year
  17. Swapping the fuseholder pin for a neutral pin from a spare plug works even better
  18. Would have gone for 24 tonnes in the trailer and 2 tonnes in the transit making a tree of 26 tonnes. Know it's not but estimating weights is a nightmare
  19. Vince Cainey mentioned having decay detection kit as well as doing l.o.l.e.r. He is in Atworth , Melksham, Wiltshire.
  20. My ribs now ache with laughing
