    This is another timely thread. My climbing kit is used rarely (not too much time for fun) and so lives in light tight bags.How do L.O.L.E.R. inspectors view kit that would look new other than the manufacture date? In the same vein is the 3 year life on a climbing helmet a hard and fast rule? Mine spent it's first 10 months in its box before I met it! If i don't get a move on and do CS38 soonish, i could be in the odd position of using borrowed kit that is younger than mine but closer to retirement:blushing:

    I always thought that a Corgi was a dog,turns out all this time it was a way of making 'gas safe'

    hi Steve Got the e-mails from the Childrens trust and their payment agents on the 6/12/09. don't know how long they take,or how snowed under you are!

    I reckon your missus is dead right. If not,I cannot imagine a better shot for the "Arbtalk calendar 2011 (December)".

    Love the photographs. I'd never noticed before what a lovely colour combination their breasts are.That orange/white does look familiar,sort of reliable,solid, German?

    Very pleased for you,well done your mate for finding the motor:001_smile: Despite all of their faults we do miss them when they are on sick leave:biggrin:

    My understanding of CE marking is that it is about "placing on the market" I do know that I can build a canal boat and use it without a CE compliance file,but I cannot sell it on within 5 years. I suspect that Carls take on CE marking is correct,getting the paperwork ticked off is another can of worms:sneaky2:

    wow. that does make more sense,going to be a struggle to keep a straight face with the listed building conservation officer though!

    my local saw shop averages 300 chains to a sprocket sold:blushing: That sounds getting close to unbelievable:scared1: drive links/sprocket would be more like it.

    would not be at all surprised,an agricultural mate has the one that County took to the shows,he also has a couple of smaller ones grrrrr. the most tax efficient pension fund ever:laugh1:

    Thanks for posting that. Sounds like a very worthwhile project to be involved in.

    You could look at it as the ideal "private" place to practice reversing on mirrors.On narrow trailers it helps to make them wide enough to see(in your mirrors)using whatever comes to hand at the time. Its a good life skill; show off when young & still be able to park when you're too old and stiff to look over your shoulder.

    Cor,that was an experience! Look at all that lovely C.S.34/35 training material:001_smile:

    Stihl chainsaw in the back of a Land Rover along with the terrier, the Haix boots,a bottle of non fizzy real ale,and the sight (in the mirror) of a northener in her Unimog on the end of the tow rope! By the way if I set up as 'Freds Firewood' can I run a fridge lorry on red diesel?:001_tt2:

    Check to see if you have your wading plug screwed into the clutch housing,might just need draining!
