  1. if he had half a brain he'd be deadly.
  2. doesn't a certain australian gentleman whose name should not be mentioned on arbtalk use the footplates?
  3. never do owt for nowt unless its for thisen:sleep1:
  4. :confused1: or am i just totally missing the point here after numerous pints of wadworths Strong in t'arm?
  5. along a similar vein "A nod's as good as a wink to a blind bat" or ' "Watch out" said the blind man to the deaf man as he fell down a hole'
  6. not exactly regional but one i like: If it doesn't work after been hit with a big hammer it's probably electrical.
  7. last line means "and if she isn't gone, she's sat there now" at a guess
  8. hope all who are unfortunate enough to have caught it are back on their feet soon.
  9. i'm going to have to get a smaller dog!!
  10. whats green and come sout of your nose at 200+mph? A lambogreenie:001_tongue:
  11. what do you call a chinaman who can eat noodles with one chopstick whilst standing on his head? Foo kin cleva
  12. or use some polypipe like the councils do then all long handled tools are contained but accessible.
  13. there was some jobs been advertised by scottish and southern energy doing line work but i think the closing date is friday so might be a bit late now. Have you tried arbjobs, complete tree care etc? There's also jobs appear in hort weekly from time to time so perhaps get a subscription going with that?
  14. good thing it says strawberry cheesecake at the top as i thought it was GARLIC BREAD!
  15. same make as the jcb toughphone, in fact i think it might even be the same phone just different colours. IP rating of 67 which is the highest ever rated phone for resisting ingress of dust,water and resisting shock (note use of word resisting. tried the pint trick with my old siemens m65, ended up having to buy a samsung m110 solid.)
  16. chortle:001_tongue: is that THE cabstar, i thought it was bigger than that:001_tongue:
  17. that would have been gbt who were on the treeworker stand. apparently good machines.
  18. i think mr bashford summed it up rather well. congratulations to all who make this site what it is: the members and especially steve and the mods who give up valuable time to make sure arbtalk stays what it started out to be. well done steve:laola:
  19. you've got to admit that the french do protest at just about anything but when they do it is with such flair that you can't help but be impressed. What do our farmers do? drive to london in their tractors but can't get any further than the outskirts due to the LEZ:sneaky2:. This country just rolls over when anything like this happens which is why all the dross from europe come here as we are a soft touch on them. sorry rant over:blushing:
  20. no need to shout deerman. i saw some of these at the yorkshire show, but the price put me off. You can pick up a pair of peltor snr31 ear defenders for round about 30 notes and come in a range of colours including hi-viz i think so there's no losing them.
  21. x reg transit for me. had it about six months before it got written off by a newly qualified driver (about two weeks) in a corsa:scared1:.
  22. the curry evening on walton mountain had got a little bit out of control with regards to the strength of some of the curries.
  23. in the deep south, when they get scared they 'deposit' logs rather than bricks.
  24. i bet the crane driver was checking his pants for sheperd's pie as well.
  25. i think even the huck would have resorted to a mewp for that:001_tongue:
