  1. Sorry, I’ve been drinking Budweiser.
  2. No biggy. Me and my crew could have that done in a couple of hours. MS200T yeah! - best saw ever! What are the best jeans for tree work? I’m thinking of giving new-skool a go, how do you tie a Blake’s hitch? Why do you Limey pussies wear helmets?
  3. Fucktards queued for a finger lickin’ 4 hours in Kent earlier this week. Executing anyone more than 10 mins back in that queue would have improved the gene pool a lot. KFC rubbish already appeared in car park next to local woods. Pure scum. I’m not anti-KFC at all, I enjoy a dirty treat now and then, but they are taking the piss. Number plate printed on every wrapper through the drive through, automatic £1000 fine for every piece picked up not in a bin. Sharp see a change then. Dirty bastards.

    Booze

    Nearly everyone I know is. I’m probably drinking the same as ever, but spreading it out over the week a bit more, I’m a traditional Thu-Sun caner.
  5. I’m all for everyone getting back to work wherever possible (I never stopped), but to think C19 only affects coffin dodgers and fatties is simplistic in the extreme. A massive second peak would be horrendous. Childcare is an obvious issue for many, and just throwing open the school gates would be crazy. The economic effect must be considered, but all this has made me think that the Bransons and Bezos et al could be doing a lot more in the future, and I’m far from being a Corbynite.
  6. Everyone going back to work would be a bigger disaster.
  7. #copyrightinfringement
  8. Similar to this Kev.
  9. Thanks Donnk. That’s the most depressing thing I’ve read this year.
  10. I couldn’t help but think of this -
  11. Shame the concrete blocks weren’t placed on the Jimny really.
  12. Nasty one there Joe.
  13. You don’t half get through some graft Big Lad. Better looking since I last saw you as well.
  14. Totally Mick. I’d be sat beside it with my Beretta till the police arrived.
  15. Now recovered by owner apparently.
  16. Seen that someone has found one on FB. I’ll try and put a link up in a bit.
  17. Thanks mate, but climbing is the main use.
  18. How much is it?
  19. I’ve had Salewas in the past Tommy, and really liked them. What model are they?
  20. My young lab chewed my Mammut Wall Guides this week, the little bitch. Brilliant non protective climbing boots. They will need replacing at some point, but unfortunately are no longer available. Unfortunately the trend with these boots now seems to be for colours that would fit in nicely at a Pride march. I don’t want red, orange, yellow, limeade or fuchsia, I want basically brown-ish, because I wear them shooting, walking etc. Is anything out there similar in a subtle colour? Basically lightweight approach boots, preferably Goretex. Please note non-protective boots only.
  21. You sound pretty sensible mate, and you can obviously graft. Learning without putting all your eggs in one basket could be worth a go. Good luck with it.
  22. I can’t think of a worse time to try and get into it, nothing to do with being 32.
