  1. If you are going to use that kit make you do the carabiners up very tight and keep checking them as it isn't a good idea to use them in that configuration especially as you don't know what you are doing.
  2. Ha, brilliant.
  3. I hope this is the right thread Why dont ducks have any decent amount of meat on their legs, or anywhere else for that matter?
  4. That's nothing. Round two is the upside down burny nipple cactus round.
  5. Ain't that the truth! 2016, the year the people wanted change.
  6. They are/do on Pandora. Back here on earth I think they are here for our amusement, just like ants and badgers.
  7. I would say that petrol isn't the issue the operator is to blame. Using old fuel, cheap or non existent two stroke or just poor maintenance in general. I have never had a petrol problem with hand held machines in 20 years of work. I have never had a problem with any cars, trucks our large machines that use petrol, and petrol has never given me any health issues. I can see the last point being the most important one for people who are affected directly by petrol Besides I love the smell of two stroke.
  8. I do like to read/watch the news but I certainly dont have a favourite or despise any particular thing. How do you describe one brand of news against another? Its not a paper or a tv channel so what is it? Anyway, the only people I really laugh at is those who say that they dont read the news any only 'sheeple' do, in fact anyone who says 'sheeple' out loud should have there sandals boiled in chilli oil while they sleep.
  9. At least it's reassuring to know that there is nothing nasty going on in the world if scary hornets make the headlines. Apparently there is a solicitor planning a law suit against sir David Attenborough and David Bellamy as we speak. Someone is too blame and these are the likely suspects. so then, who do we trust to give us relevant, impartial correct news? You have to remember the majority of Joe public loves a bit of drama compared to reality.
  10. I think a lot of people do, right up until the point they are made to feel like an incompetent idiotic loser if they don't bang a claim in. The ambulance chasing leach law firms have a lot to answer for.
  11. I think you mean a hot knife through butter. Butter doesn't really go through anything unless its a blender then it gets beaten into submission.
  12. It needs to be olive oil or you will just kill it. Always buy fresh, local if you can.
  13. If it makes you feel any better there were probably loads of other customers who were 100% satisfied that day. I've used them twice and they have been spot on. Nothing worse than hanging about all day only to be competently let down. A bit of customer update might have helped a bit.
  14. this is true of so many people.
  15. Im afraid there are a lot more nasty things happening right now than that, so yes it can get a lot worse. I have no doubt it happened, I have been to many a job where the customer has been robbed and ripped off plus there neighbour has suffered too. Usually people in the older pensioner bracket but many a younger person can be well and truly conned by these scum bags.
  16. I think it is a bit OTT to be publicly slaging a business like that. Besides I bet there would be no complaints If they started selling cheap chainsaws.
  17. No doubt someone will make vast yacht sums of money from that. The guys digging a hole in a frozen hillside wont be that someone. The title should be, make huge amounts of money - organise fence building in Norway. Cant be a bad thing though, at least the money will filter down and create some jobs.
  18. :lol: Where would we be without a HB pencil! and Erasure for that matter, that was when gays were 'just confused'. No offence luv
  19. Only if your takin about these kinda tunes [ame] [/ame] Im sure I have a copy of it on a TDK somewhere. Just think, in the years to come you will never see a cassette tape hanging out of a dogs arse. For those of you that havent got a clue what Im talking about, dogs eat anything and back in the 80's tapes where everywhere so once in awhile a stupid dog would eat one then try to sh!t it out.
  20. He is only going to climb a tree to get a helicopter. He is not, sectioning down a black hybrid pop that spans 42 gardens, a 24hr a day in use childrens nursery playground, a nuclear waste bunker and the M5. IM about to change the plug on my ghetto blaster, should I do it myself or get a trained electrician in? (I would say wog box but that might be seen as racist)
  21. Well and truly trumped.
  22. I would have said the stihl 066 but for daily use it has to be the 560XP, nothing else has ever compared.
  23. I hope your going to get one of your mates to shoot a drone vid while you doing it. btw thats said with the best of intentions of you have to or we won't believe you not in a snidy way. If you stay tied in and tied into something sensible then you won't have a problem, in regards to any danger. Getting out to the heli might be a bit more of a challenge though! Good luck, it's hardly rocket science and good shout for asking for some advice.
  24. That's The best way to go imo. State what you are doing and price the job accordingly. If you start to get too technical ie it will take x amount of seconds with x amount of men then the customer can come back at you.
  25. WTF! Is that a real image! Hate bloody wasps, been stung many times over the years.
