    A documented annual inspection of winching equipment by a competent person makes good sense, doing it under L.O.L.E.R. can't work as too much of the kit is not supplied by the manufacturers as suitable for lifting.

    Sorry I'm late sir, had to stay at home as the dog ate my homework and it looked like it was going to be sick

    How similar is it to the ones that Flowfit sells? Looks like I ought to dig out the lt95 hydraulic pump I've got and get that up for sale 🙂

    Ah .... that's where I went wrong

    The very best firewood has to be the wizened heartwood lower branches of an oak tree that doesn't need deadwooding but has been 😊

    Wasn't there also a suggestion that they can also reduce the compensation because if he'd admitted to something he hadn't done he wouldn't have occupied expensive space for quite so long 🤔

    Trawling my memory for for what happened last time autocorrect landed on the wrong word

    Can I just remind you gentlemen that this is not a forum for failed comedians it is supposed to be for serious tree sturgeons

    Do motor manual fellers and machine drivers still live in vans on site ? Remember hearing wild tales and wondered if land owners still tolerated it 🤔😉

    Mind you some of the rigging lines would have been cheaper from Sorbus 🙂

    Auctioneers seem to put little effort into their sales description...... the big milling bars were listed as harvester bars and who would have thought that several items of plastic and a black and red safety rope was in fact a boa cable bracing kit worth a bit more than the £62 it sold for.

    Have you tried a brand new plug out of a box with a name we'd trust ? Been there with plugs that would work in other machines and when out (checking for a spark held against the engine) but not in place 🤭

    In hindsight it's lucky that the government department British Waterways didn't have the powers to stop public protest that is available today, these days they would have been able to achieve their task and the whole network would have been infilled and sold off piecemeal.

    Collapsed culvert?😒

    If it is running well and is burning all of the unburnt mix in the muffler then why would you want to breathe in fumes by changing things ?

    It was Charles Mynors offer to act as an expert witness pro bono to anyone brave enough to take it to court that caught my attention. I've heard that it has got close before but the planning authority withdrew the case so it remains untested.
  17. Canal Navvy
    Has that ever been tested in court ? Surely planning laws don't have the powers to override preexisting laws of property 🤔

    To be fair to him that £700 is a good chunk of the cost of the bit that goes in the middle of his alloy wheels that some oik prised out as a trophy .

    I thought that Bazalgette mk. XI had cured that 🤔🤭

    I wonder how many are show thefts are done by people who've stood at the paydesk for ten minutes being ignored by the staff who are too busy catching up with old acquaintances and thought "bugger it" The "professional" show robbers are altogether a different animal, definitely vermin. End result is still the same, less of a show for the honest and patient visititors 😒

    He may well have nodded off 😁

    Any difference plug left in but ht lead disconnected?

    All this talk of the Floyd made me remember that my much missed old farmer friend used to shoot with Nick Mason. Knew he had a house in Corsham but I'd never felt the need to do a Google search on which house ........so I did ...... bought his house off our new Queen. Instead of sleeping I was thinking of the oddity of life with random coincidence and wondering if drummers like terriers as much as Queens do 🤔

    There is a test report on the tigrone 7700 out there that mentions a mechanical transport lock 🔒 🤔
