  1. a bit like owning a landrover then janey:001_tongue:
  2. I feel that i can now add my ha'penny's worth after reading this thread and i have realised that i am in pretty much the same boat as a few people are/ have been. If it hadn't been for the fact that i saw a psychologist whilst i was at school for what turned out to be very deep seated emotional problems regarding the death of my dad when i was only very small and being bullied a lot, i would probably have been trying out how strong my knot tying was and i wouldn't be here today and enjoying the company of arbtalk and the many friends i have made on here and have yet to make. A few years ago i went through a very very lean patch and i hit the beer big time, 7/8 pints a night and probably more on a weekend and i suddenly realised that it wasn't doing me any good and then i had a patch of good luck, i sorted my act out and got a girlfriend and the business is now running smoothly again but it's still making a bit of a loss but i know that that is surmountable through my own efforts but i know not to bottle it all up inside me now and i'll talk to my friends down the local and on here if i need advice. thanks for this thread stevie, i'll try and buy you a cider at the aa.
  3. wouldn't that have been cheaper?
  4. has the parcel been FRANKed?
  5. working fine for me theocus. is it me or is that the robin reliant shuttle from top gear in the background of one of the pics of the john deere tractor in the used equipment section?
  6. parcel full of shiny things from justin?
  7. i think it's the same company that does all the cleaning and maintenance from the helicopters. pretty sure it was on danger men on channel five
  8. were the fire brigade notified dean? just in case someone saw the glare from all those candles and thought miller's oils had caught fire:001_tongue: happy birthday for yesterday btw
  9. what about something like pressure washing drives and patios? transit with an ibc of water and a petrol or diesel pressure washer and a numpty to operate.
  10. what are you complaining for? you've got half the tree surgeons in the north descending on your woods next week so you can relax then and have a few beers. As for the tenner in your card, it's probably been nicked by the e-posty.
  11. it'll get to the point where we'll have to fill in a RA for filling in the RA due to the possibility of getting a paper cut:sneaky2:
  12. dave, i think peter was asked to do a job similar to this and it had him completely stumped as to how to do it.
  13. well it certainly wouldn't be his legs would it dean?
  14. i'm still suffering from this, knackered all my rotatorcuff in my left shoulder due to a certain somebody coming down the line at something approaching mach three because of mcsheffrey's super fast pulley:stickyman:
  15. how much have you had to spend on it so far alisdair?
  16. i was going to say try screwfix as their bags seem indestructible but i think they're about £12
  17. the prices for the HIE seem to be between £44 and £55 per room per night but that is for a double room with a double sofa bed and either smoking or non-smoking
  18. it aint called ROYAL for nothing
  19. they'd leave you like a three day old lettuce leaf mate just by looking at you with that stare that toffs get when a pleb speaks to them
  20. another thing, holiday inn express tend to be next door to a pub
  21. nah it is about half an hours drive, but all on A roads and motorway depending on which one you use
  22. john they're all horsey women, mere mortal arbworkers like us are just oiks to them. I read about a bunch of students from the ag college trashing a pub by doing £25,000 of damage. No charges brought if i remember rightly, lots of hons and lady's
  23. dean+beer+all blokes=nightmare

  24. can't guarantee it'll be the landy though:001_tongue:
