  1. I'll be in touch before 5 months mate! What's CS39? 😀
  2. Seriously, mainly BP, supermarket if I'm caught out low. I'm happy to switch, if I can't absorb 50p for a can full I should pack in. I'm more concerned about the ramifications of switching from one to the other after several hundred tankfuls?
  3. Neither John Boy, I use petrol.
  4. You should check that Ian, I'm pretty sure mine is 8.25T.
  5. This combo looks the nuts Rob. Are you getting more in?
  6. Is drinking ok Peter?
  7. It's been a while since I dealt with a v tight crotch, so I won't be needing the boots either.
  8. Bring them down, I've got s TPO'd Beech lined up for a 0.15m crown reduction. Should be a great test. Jomoco, thanks mate, but my knee op wasn't a big deal really, I'm hoping for pretty much full recovery.
  9. Seriously mate, that's very tidy indeed. I've played on worse pitches!
  10. Poor. You're meant to leave a huge mound of grindings and bs the customer about the importance of 'settlement'. This has the two-fold advantage of hiding the bits at the end you couldn't be bothered with, the teeth were blunt, and you fancied a pint.
  11. I've just had on op on my right knee Tommy, it's a no-brainer. I'll hide £1k in twenties in Joe next time I use him, then send him up to you. Get them ordered.
  12. Trying to sail under £20k would be a struggle though Pete.
  13. I've always run my kit on cheapo Stihl red, including 560 and 540, with no issues, ever. I'm pretty anal about my mix, always use one shots for convenience and exactly 5l. Is it worth me upgrading to the better stuff?
  14. Only when the bill rocked up mate!
  15. Is that sheeting where you dropped a top through the roof Adam?
  16. Where exactly is it? After the way they've been today I might starve my little buggers for a bit and send them round there.
  17. That's what bothers him.
  18. You were spot on the first time like Chris!
  19. Aye, I bet rail work is pretty tough on boots.
  20. Hahahahaha! I'm the same as 5-Shires, use walking boots for tree work (non-chainsaw stuff, obviously). My Salewas are awesome to climb in, and fantastically comfy for every kind of trekking. I had AKU's before them and they were just as good. They're not cheap at about £150, but my £200 chainsaw boots last twice as long so it's win/win.
  21. I can assure you I will never find out.
  22. I thought the ICF were West Ham's 'firm'?
