  1. Do you use the same starter word? I know technically it doesn’t make a difference if you start with a solid one, but I’m mixing things up a bit these days.
  2. Wordle 1,293 3/6 🟨⬜🟨⬜⬜ ⬜🟨🟨⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  3. Luckily I held it to finish. Wordle 1,292 6/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟩 ⬜⬜⬜🟨🟩 🟨⬜⬜⬜🟩 ⬜🟨⬜⬜🟩 🟨🟩🟩⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  4. There may or may not be an element of truth in that….
  5. That bear would have eaten you for sure, but it spotted your top-knot and assumed you were either a Samurai or a bender and decided against it.
  6. Would anyone change their minds about big cats if they actually saw one with their own eyes like I did? There is actually plenty of evidence as well, including DNA.
  7. I’m hearing you better now Paul. So you’d just pick it up with pallet forks rather than just dragging it about?
  8. Don’t worry Peter, there’s always next year.
  9. I think you’d struggle with a skid on domestic stuff. People are protective over their drives and lawns. We spend enough time already messing around with track mats and stokboards. If you’re mainly commercial it will be much less of an issue.

  11. Just musing Paul, but would a simpler solution not be just to get a 16’ plant trailer? You could use the loader to push or pull a wheeled 125 or 160 onto the trailer and carry both together.
  12. Yes way! Wordle 1,290 2/6 🟨⬜🟩🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  13. Give it a go mate!
  14. Sounds ideal mate. I totally get kids wanting stuff at Christmas, it can be a really magical time if you put some thought into it. I don’t get grown adults wanting tons of crap though, I simply don’t.
  15. I’m a massive Christmas fan, love pretty much all of it. BUT the consumerism thing is beyond a joke. Luckily both our families are pretty sensible. Our kids get nice stuff, but not ridiculous. They appreciate what they get. Needless plastic crap isn’t welcome. For a few years now the adults buy for one other person, Β£100 value, and you pretty much tell each other what you want. I got a Gransfors splitting maul one year, now there’s a present! It saves running around fretting what to get the mother in law etc., then invariably buying some crap for the sake of it. MIL is Dutch, so we have kids stockings first thing, dog walk, boozy lunch etc. then main presents in the evening, which keeps the anticipation up for the kids and works for us.
  16. Sounds like they’ve taken a step backwards? Dirty ropes are part of arb.
  17. β€˜Howay the lads!’ Only the old Geordies will remember. RIP Jimmy.
  18. Have you got a thumb you can eat soup with as well then Conor?
  19. Appropriately in 5! Wordle 1,289 5/6 ⬜⬜⬜🟨⬜ ⬜⬜🟨⬜⬜ ⬜🟩⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  20. I load my Worky Quad up ramps into my Transit and pull my TW160 which works fine. As Woody has pointed out though, you then need to make separate runs to tip chip. This works on some jobs, but is a PITA on others depending on logistics.
  21. That’s great Peter, thanks. What is the device?
  22. Nice Peter. What is the drill/driver for at the start?
  23. Wordle 1,288 4/6 ⬜⬜🟨⬜🟨 🟨🟩⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟨⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  24. Indeed. 8 hours in a slow cooker with a bottle of Hobgoblin. Food of the Gods.
  25. In at the death, fairly pissed! Wordle 1,287 2/6 🟨⬜🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
