  1. Andy have you found that after a bit of a session you have less of a hangover? I used to really cane the tabs when I was on the beer, and I reckon my hangovers were much worse back then.
  2. I'm wearing an anti-bullying wristband at the minute. I nicked it off a fat ginger kid. This is outrageous Paul. I know schools have uniform codes etc., but this is a step too far. You don't want to get your lad in bother, but I would tell this small minded little Hitler to wind his neck in or you'll go to the press. Stories like this make me want to leave this country for somewhere without so many stupid rules. Like North Korea.
  3. Amazing. Won't ask what you were looking for Tom....
  4. I reckon Dadio is just softening us all up for when he releases his 'bloopers' DVD just in time for Christmas. Just kidding Daniel, always enjoy seeing different ideas and techniques in action. I don't often copy them, but I enjoy watching them.
  5. Don't forget the 'enjoyability' factor when pricing.
  6. The Rupali is still the big name, although I haven't been for a while. I'd book if you're a stag party. 0191 2328629. I'd pack a few spare pairs of pants.
  7. I've got a hard-on now. Is that wrong?
  8. With a budget of £2k an O licence is not really on the cards anyway. I know what you mean about the multiple trips thing though Dave. Trying to run a 3.5tonner legally is a ball-ache.
  9. That's a bit like slagging McDonalds off because you can't buy KFC in there.
  10. Honestly I feel feel real empathy with bigger, older trees, but will slash and burn young suckers all day without a thought. Why is that? Am I some kind of sicko baby-killer? It really makes you think about things. Great thread. (Unless I top myself).
  11. Hey man, if they don't want to die then why are they, like, made of wood?
  12. I love his Redneck skit, where he gets accused of being 'a reader'. Agree if he was around today his stuff would be unreal.
  13. Slap a pic up mate to rub it in a bit more!
  14. You're spot on with the frame size Rupe, managed to bamboozle myself with Google overload on bike sizing! Should have a Specialized Hardrock Sport Disc, used for a week, for £250 this weekend if all goes to plan. Thanks for your input fellas.
  15. What boots are you wearing Arcto, and what size?
  16. If you're having to ask this, then in my opinion you are not ready to start taking on your own work. Most of us put a little time in at the sharp end before trying to set up on our own. Probably not what you wanted to hear, but I'm just being honest. In the words of Bodhi in Point Break - 'It's for your own growth Bro'.
  17. What does the surveying involve Dave, and how is the payment worked out? I'm struggling to climb in the winter now with my p-poor hand circulation.
  18. No problem here with how people choose to work, but I wouldn't put pictures up of me doing it. Monkey see, monkey do, and I wouldn't want a young lad gashing his leg because he'd seen me cutting in my Speedos and thought it was OK. For the record, I've never even nicked my chainsaw trousers, but two lads I've been working with have been saved from very serious cuts by them.
  19. Adam (atree) on here should be able to help.
  20. Some of the people on this site would pay for a cavity search ELG. I'm trying real hard with the sense of humour gap?
