  1. pic 1, time to bring out old faith full new tilt ready for the summer pic 2, dropping in disc 200tdi in my old tired 200tdi 130 and it went like stink pic 3, td5 at work in the woods in comfort pic 4, well cause im a 'gimp'
  2. I would agree if the all pictures taken before and after had the same 'blur'. Who knows what it is.
  3. Sam Here are some zoom pics to show them the first one is still pretty crap but the second one shows it clearer
  4. Not sure what it is , no flash used in top one. The large one when magnified Is for sure strange Maybe nothing there at all maybe through suggestion And a build up you are expecting to see something and do?! Maybe it's dust from the bed I let u all decide as its all a pointless argument in the begining with no real definitive answer. It's just interesting and makes you think
  5. As promised, both taken on a late August Sunday afternoon I have shared them blown them up compared them and stared at them not your normal dust 'orbs' i think you will agree First pic . top left the right of red lamp above brass. could be lots of things and i would agree but if compared with the next picture it does put a different angle on things. Second pic. Room directly above.
  6. Agreed I have seen many orb pictures and would agree that dust particles could be one of many explanations. The first picture is of me sitting at a fire place in the bar. As in many a country pub they have horse brasses and ornaments strewn it's mantle. On the far left there is something the size of the brasses. In the second picture I am in the room directly above and also on the top left hand corner it seems the 'something' has grown in size and maybe followed me, Who knows as I don't ! Maybe Paul you are right but let me put them up, earliest I can do is in the am when I get back. I use the term 'orb' loosely.
  7. Always loved a 'ghost' story and have always wondered how I would react to a supernatural Episode. A flying chair smashing a wall, temperature drop an icy hand you get the sort of thing. Do you remember , im sure it was called 'Ghost Hunter' in early 90's the old boy Who went to all the most haunted sites in the uk, grainy filming and bad music ? Not long ago I decided I would make the effort and go to some hotels , pubs etc and stay and see if anything would happen. On 'Ghost Hunter ' one of his stories always had stuck in my mind and was in a pub called 'The Ram' . It was bought by a family to run as a pub and after a child's grave was found in the bar and lots of things going bump people being thrown against the wall and some real weird Stuff night/day ,the family left all but one the husband. It is placed in ley lines and dates back to middle ages and at one point housesd the workers who built the church opposite on the hill. So a lot of history has passed and been associated with it as it stands. After going to a few places I thought I must at least visit the Ram, as to be honest up till then most places where about as atmospheric as tescos. We got there at about 12pm on a sunday you weren't able to stay the husband still lives there in the same clothes in a tiny section of the building through fear the bar has long been shut. We originally thought we could get lunch there but it took about 30 mins for us poking around knocking before signs of life appeared. I won't bother explaining what the place looked like you wouldn't believe me, or that a mass grave had been found in the barn I would say scoobi do set and plot would do. We listened to his stories the scene was set and finally we were left with the freedom to roam..... Meeting the 'Landlord' was an experience in its self and something's have no doubt happened to him and I would recommend if you have the chance or interest Go. They definatly threw away his mould ! But like all stories especially 'ghost' some people beleive some dispell and others just enjoy. All I have are memories and a couple of photos showing 'orbs''. Now lots of people Have pics of them and I have scoured the net but never seen similar especially not taken in the day. I will dig them out and post the funny thing is we never noticed them untill about 4 months after taking them. I've never seen a ghost and am open and would be happy to hear your thoughts on what these pics show cause they for sure arnt dust particles .....
  8. Thanks for sharing that is awe inspiring !
  9. Ledlenzor do a clamp and switch for trigger freedom. Got the little torch runs off 1 AA and it's as bright as the big old Maglights I am sure u can get the lenses
  10. 40 and a bit more and loving it :-)
  11. A tree growing in a stand will grow tall and put it energies into competing with the surrounding trees reaching for the light. It will lay down reaction wood where needed ie at base but remember in the old school method of staking (normally found in old gardens) just above the tree tie it thickens as that is where the reaction wood is needed as the lower stem is reliant on the stake. Are we talking about an established tree? Planted at the same time as its competition.? If it was sheltered like in the stake senario then maybe the reaction wood is needed higher up? And thus forming more of a cylinder ( smartie tube) as the tree ages... I don't know but I thought I would start the ball rolling for you.....Blondie
  12. Hi mate do you want it moved n taken of you hands? Give me a bell.. Ps hows my old truck?
  13. Get ur new boots on and chop some Bl&&DY LOGS
  14. I will admit good and bad days with a throw line! Sometimes first throw and others well lets just say don't stand near me Generally now if I've got a number of trees on site i set my rope up In first and then Set my throw line up in the next so on n so forth that seems to work best and speeds me up
  15. All the best to you mate. 6 odd years ago I lost everything I knew inc me seeing my boy and was in a very dark place. Couldn't say boo to a goose and felt everything and everyone was against me. I put myself in a position where I couldn't get any lower (living in a shed!) so the only place To go was up. In that time I set a plan and stuck with it and that what was the key ,have a positive focus. To be honest I only came out of it completely a couple of years ago but I stayed away from docs as they seem to just prescribe to tic boxes. I will admit I smoked the odd bifta but that is not any better really and wouldn't advise. You have a beautiful daughter and a new life ahead ready for the taking get some goals no. Matter how small and work towards them and you will feel again in control and feel self worth and you will look back at this time with a sardonic smile . There is always light at the end of the tunnel mate for sure you just have to crack on dig deep and look to your future knowing your the master of your destiny and no matter what, you will become wiser stronger and you again will hold your head high T
  16. Had similar, was clearing roadside nr a permanent Camp they pulled over in shiny new truck ,wearing this years colours (orange vis). Took me to there site and showed me job. I quoted well over the top as most of them were elderly and said I wanted paying end of each day cash. Unfortunately I was too expensive ! But considering they Wouldn't of paid me anyway it did make me smile. The best bit was They did have an old tin wormed cherry picker with flat tyres and bits missing they said I could use
  17. I started with an old disco and indespension trailer , secound hand 200t and wait for it A New farm boss ! borrowed hedge cutters , rake from a car boot and a couple of builders bags. As work came in i saved didnt have a social life. Unless as mentioned before bank of mum n dad set u up or you get in with the high street banks you have to spend wisely repair and maintain buy and sell your way to bigger and better kit as and when needed. So it doesn't have to cost the earth just your nptc's to set you on your way and good rigging But I'm a tight ass :-)

  19. As above 'screw splitter' Be aware they Can have a habit of flipping ring if it catches a knot. A joy to use never had a problem with mine and as mentioned Run on a ticking over ferg 35 a treat.
  20. Thanks for input Sorry for the silence phone broke n computer down.. I reckon im better keeping the trailer but thanks for the offer Only As I am able to swop the roll on off for different types/uses therefore it would be far more versatile n that's the name of the game.(for me anyway). Thanks again
