  1. anyone else find their jacket leaks in through the side zips? cant work out why they went to the trouble of putting waterproof zips on the pockets and not on the zips that run the entire length of the jacket. i know people really rate them, maybe its just wetter over in ireland! carl
  2. carlos

    My accident

    best of luck with your recovery, keep positive. carl
  3. it has no hours clock but is over 10 years old and lived on an estate where they used the ass off it! that said i would like to keep it going for as long as possible so dont mind changing the oil again if the 10w 40 will harm the engine. thanks for your help. carl
  4. valvoline durablend 10w-40 synthetic blend is the stuff i put in. thanks carl
  5. i have a john deere ride on lx 279 with a kawasaki water cooled engine and i have just put in 10w 40 synthetic oil for a service, is this ok or should get somthing different?? i thought that i had read it was ok but am now having second thoughts. thanks carl
  6. wishing you a speedy recovery sean and stay safe everyone else. carl
  7. right then out with the hand singer machine " ultimate arb trousers" 100% saw proof 100% waterproof weigh less than chinos more flexible than lycra leggings self cleaning and drying.
  8. yep thats what i thought, but if word got out that said pair with tough lower leg lasted a good bit longer then would they not sell to more people??
  9. ye i find the backs of the lower leg always gets trashed, is there any reason they cant put that ultra tough black fabric all the way around from the knee down???? makes sense in my mind:001_smile:
  10. try meindl wood walkers better than hiax imo
  11. my least favourite at break " would you like to boil a kettle or do you want some hot water!!!!":thumbdown:
  12. well to be honest id much rather see the money spent inside the hospital than trying to make a kew gardens on the outside! money is always tight( or so were told). any planting is going to cost to maintain too. carl
  13. ye probably but in my defence there was no room left at the chip dump and the tyres looked more like something lewis hamilton would use
  14. between goleen and schull, was a shame to take it down really but we thinned and deadwooded the one on the left in the second picture. carl
  15. few photos from the year, dont get many as my phone camera is pants. a couple from a big mac we unfortunately took down. HI-AB foolery with an odd shaped bit of euc. me with the mog stuck.. again! kinda answers the classic client comment "bet that will go anywhere!" have good xmas carl
  16. why do your where a mask and filter?? what are you doing? you can get chainsaw wellies. not sure about a hard hat giving a false sense of security, its obviously not going to help if a whole tree falls on you but will help for smaller bits, but as you say it works for ya.
  17. we have the pto version of your machine, id buy a new set of blades then get old ones resharpend, we turn ours every now and then and often they dont look too bad but chip way better with fresh edge, not a great photo but yours look very worn, i touched up our rollers gently with a angle grinder and i think it made a bit of difference. good luck with it, our one at work has had a good bit of use without too much hassle. carl
  18. hope you get it sorted, some of the couriers round our way are a real pain, ring up and seem to want to drop of the package anywhere but at my home! i find these things can make you wish you paid more and got it local. carl
  19. oi my 346xpg has never missed a beat!!!
  20. id try and use other peoples climbing kit to have a go on for a bit and find out what gear might suit you rather than buying blind. small ground saw is always a good investment in my eyes. good luck carl
  21. cool , would love to do more of that sort of work
  22. well with a qoute of 35k!! id want a chipper a way bigger than 9", how many days are you planning to spend on it.?? check out tomd, s thread in the photo section!!!! bit more like it imo. carl
  23. no just a throw line.
  24. cool looks good, fancy something like that myself, unfortunately its more of a want rather than need... one day.
  25. is that your quoting run around!?? ( the porchse) great mog, crying out for sign writing on that huge white side
