  2. i had a look at them at the apf they seemed heavy, reminded me of the efco range.
  3. the guy i just seen getting out the pod look like he had just stepped out the house not been trapped in a mine for 69 days!!!! must be some feeling getting up top after the wait.
  4. ive had ldvs in the past and they are ok but they do rust quite bad they seem to only have one coat of paint from the factory, i have an old smillie faced transit and i cant fault it, it just goes and goes i look after it mind you but its more preemtive maintenance than fixing it when it breaks. At £1900 ANYTHING you get will have been well used, the glasgow council ones you speak of my mate just got one an 02 crew cab for £2200 low miles but is quite rough looking but mechanicly sound. good luck with the search.
  5. Great job tom:thumbup1: i enjoy giving new lease of life to machinery its really satisfiying, its amazing that some people overlook good bits of kit because its not shinny shinny, nice one mate im sure it will earn you good coin. (get the wheels painted though it looks a bit rough )
  6. LOL at Micks posts nice splitter dean, that looks like wee jimmy krankie in the first picture:001_rolleyes:

  14. Its only you thats stopping you. Unless you have dependants then you are free to go. Pack a bag get the paperwork sorted and go, there are only so many heartbeats that we get so if you want something in life then make it happen. Good luck on your journey
  15. could be red spider mite get an a4 sheet of paper and run your hand down the hedge catching what falls if there are any mites there you will see them. if there is kill them

  17. i did not like the one where he was cutting with the top hander with one hand and pushing the section with the other. But he has like most of us done it a million times, but as i get older i just see the ramifications of such an injury, as i dont feel indestructable anymore. i agree with the other posts that i enjoyed this video more than your others.
  18. Good videos
