  1. Used Velocity but the better end. Also did a quite well used Blue Moon but didn't get a photo of that one.
  2. I dont mate. I bought some and spliced it up as a baby rope but it just feels really flat in the hand. Maybe its psycological!
  3. Ha ha!! Something like that!!
  4. Or he was massive to start with:laugh1: I'm amazed at how much you can gain or lose in a relativley short amount of time. Over the weekend I had a Burger King and a few bad meal choices and weighed myself and I'd put 5 lbs on. Felt like poop though afterwards so it won't be a regular thing!!
  5. Does anyone else think that Cougar Blue feels a bit 'flat'?
  6. Sorry to hear about your customer but what a lovely thing to do. Looking forward to seeing the pic
  7. If you want something to snack on, this stuff is amazing. I mentioned it to you at the show Steve then forgot to send you a link. They do mail order as well! biltongenwors.co.uk - the easiest way to buy biltong and droewors online in the UK!
  8. It sounds like you and I are doing the exact same thing mate!
  9. 3 eggs and bacon for breakfast. Black tea If I can't be bothered to cook that I'll take a few bananas and apples Leafy salad, tin of Mackrell, boiled eggs, ham and gerkins with a tiny bit of cheese for lunch Dinner is normally Chicken breast or fish with loads of veg and butter
  10. Similar to me. I'm just under 6ft and 12 stone 13lbs. I think I look healthy but everyone was so used to me being bigger that it looks noticeable that I've got smaller
  11. YES! Mainly from the wife but I think she reckons I'm starving myself! How tall are you Dave?
  12. Looks like a good day
  13. Like others have said, I'm sitting here wondering what to write that hasn't already been said before. All of the things that I've been worrying about seem like they couldn't be more ridiculous after reading your post and I need to make an effort to be thankful for what I always take for granted and realise that situations can change in a heartbeat. I really am truly sorry for your loss and hope that your Granddaughter makes a full recovery. Tommy
  14. Hope so. I've got Holland in the sweep. I think that everyone has written off whoever gets to the final after that German performance but I think the Dutch will get there and cause German a few problems
  15. Crab sitting sideways?
  16. If in doubt mate...
  17. By the sounds of it you might not have zeroed out the core and cover once you started the second eye and the cover has to go somewhere, making the final eye smaller.
  18. Blimey mate. That doesn't sound good. As others have said, look after yourself and take what you need to.
  19. So will the wife....
  20. Rigging rope is nice and easy to start with. If you can get hold of a wire fid it will be a bit easier on the smaller diameter stuff.
  21. http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/chainsaw-carving-forum/35152-giant-hand-vyrnwy.html
  22. Yeah, A micro prussik will do the same, or a Ropeman. If you use a revolver, a hitchclimber and a micro pussik you can make an O rig
  23. Do you use the Brion Toss wand at all Drew?
  24. What did you put on it then?
  25. My Grandad would smoke his pipe with Condor tobacco and use Swan Vestas which he'd get me or my brother to blow out. Burnt matches now take me back to being 5!
