  2. That is so funny, hey you think if westwood was arborist he would be "hanging with his Beeches"
  3. his may help mate http://hcd2.bupa.co.uk/fact_sheets/html/tennis_elbow.html if you understand what you have you can start to repair it, try and get the doctor to get you an mri scan to id the extent of the damage, apply ice if its swollen then keep it warm to get the blood through it so as the healing can begin. but rest it from heavy work but keep it active to encourage blood flow.
  4. yep mate ive made barn doors on a hilux chipbox i used hook and band hinges (field gate hinges) they were fine and worked a treat.

    angry kid

    LOL funny thread, lsd must be free down your way..........
  6. Thats brilliant !! I had my twins when they were 3 draw small faces on my BMW M5 with a stone, then came in to the house shouting "daddy,daddy see this" showing me what they had done!! i just laughed and praised them for the picture being the likeness of me:biggrin:
  7. Yes same here work is slow, have work in from mid jan to end of feb so thats good so just chilling and spending time with my family. Money comes and goes guys and ten years will pass in the blink of an eye so i would not stress the fact that work/money is tight, try not to focus on the negative and stop for a second and think what you have got. If you woke up this morning healthy had people that respect and love you, you are a very wealthy person.
  8. Cheers Rich, that would be a killer of a workout its hard enough hitting a tyre with the hammer on a tabata routine!! Was speaking to scott last night as he is just back after doing his acl will see him again on friday i will tell him you are asking for him. thanks for the kind words Robert
  9. LOL, you are not missing anything important, but pm me and i will tell you if you are that intrigued, thats if i can get mail.....
  10. Thanks, i dont know what ive done to block my PM as ive had some sent to me before
  11. This is so true, if you park an engine up it will start to deteriorate, keep it serviced and working it will last alot longer. Im 42 and keep active with some sort of manual task every day(whether it is climbing,dragging,felling/stacking or digging) i also train every night, and if competing will train in the morning as well before work. Dont give up on you body or it will give up on you.
  12. i got hit by a can of beans that an old women threw from her bag of shopping whilst shouting " your killing the birds homes" i was removing a conifer, groundie was in stitches.
  13. RCO says the truth, it was a good fight though here is a link if anyone wants to see it, http://www.boxing-core.com/videos/_Manny_Paquiao_vs_Oscar_Dela_Hoya?vid=10000657&tid=107 Here is the khan fight as well, http://freemma.110mb.com/boxing/Amir_Khan_Oisin_Fagan.htm
  14. im one and like it although the 3 years seems to come round too quick mines is due next year and i still have 25 ceu's to get.
  15. looks great, im going back over again on holiday next year i cant wait.
  16. Burning it right now, had a year seasoned its burning great.
  17. the first one looks good
  18. ive felt a slight reduction in work load but it has certainly hit the construction sector i have a lot of friends who are out of work and most of the large house building sites close to me are closed, i was amazed though when i done my xmas shopping at the weekend the shops were mobbed !!! so it cant be that bad.
  19. If they can you better get to the doctor, no amount of cream will cure you !!
  20. freeze them, cut them up and chip them in the river:001_smile:
  21. "i could sleep for a week on broken glass and eat half a chip shop" "did someone set your face on fire and put it out with a hammer" After being told you are putting on weight the reply.. " thats cause everytime i f*** your wife she makes me a sandwich"
  22. I can see them holding out on a grinder as they know its going to make money by doing its job.... Cars are different as there are lots and lots of them and everyone that is for sale has a minimum price tag that it will go for even if the seller makes a loss, always take the cash with you and tell them that someone gets this bundle of notes today ( have it in £10 notes as even a grand looks like a fortune!!) tell them the price you will pay and then walk away if they dont. Good luck and be ruthless its the only way to buy.
  23. Id stay clear of the Dti vectra has a real bad rep for headgaskets going, my mate has a garage and every other week he has one in to fix with as low as 50 k on the clock !! i got a petrol vectra for the wife cant fault it gets 45+ mpg. £3k will get you alot of car know i would be looking at them priced at £3500 - £4000 and offering £3K its a buyers market and if they say no move on to the next seller
  24. cheers guys, food for thought.
