Welcome Stevie. You'd be better off sticking this in General Forum. Be warned though. There are some strange people on here....
-
Damn man, where was your genius advice before Valentine's day?!

I think it looks great, but it is too pricey. I'll have a go at knocking one up with my wifes 'silver bullet' vibro and some molten lead. It will sell for a tenner. Used, of course.

Biro.

The next time I am somewhere that sells them, one will be mine, my prrreccciiioooouuuussssssssssss!

Sorry for hijack Mozza, thought I was on General pics. That'll be the senility creeping up on me. Of course I was at Mafeking, damn Boers blah blah blah....
-
I'm happy to hire mine out to anyone. It comes at a slight premium though, 'cos I'll be feeding it.

Short VT with pulley.

Taking The Honk for a walk last weekend in Hampshire, and I saw this beside a track. Big-ass butt for a Holly!

Andy, you are missing the point entirely. Stihl Hi-lift wedges are clearly designed to smash to smithereens really quickly so our Teutonic cousins can make more money! Good idea. Something else to shove in the Tranny. I think my legal chip load is about 90KG these days with all the gear I carry now...

That's funny mate. Message to all - Stunt Fell club HAS to include the ones that go wrong as well!
-
No pics? You sound like a fisherman down the pub holding his arms apart! Priorities next time, young fella. Does sound like a proper stunt fell, mind.

I'm afraid this p**s-poor entry rather sums up my whole lethargic attitude to life at the moment. I least I got it wedged first throw, which is the luckiest thing thats happened to me this month. Must be almost 7 foot up there.

Tonight Ch 4 - All your mates are having a craic

Err... thats tomorrow night mate. It's Wednesday. Be like watching a car crash. -
Dead at the mo mate, but that may have more to do with the time of year and the winter we have had. Still got a few jobs on hold because of waterlogged lawns. Waiting for the sun to come out then an explosion of work! .

Here we go again... Can we have some rule clarification please Stevie? Does the shovel have to be hurled, or can it be 'placed'? I'm with Dave on the hi-vis shafts thing. We wouldn't want this getting stupid, would we?
-
That is the shovel they use to shovel the shite out of aeroplane toilets at 37000 feet. Someone let go of it by accident during a bit of turbulence, and it ended up wedged on that peg. Anyone can see that.

And they would fit right in in the Blue Oyster bar.

I find if I've had enough Stellas when I get pulled over the conversation rarely gets round to tachographs.

Reckon John Shutler is still out there with his Petzl head-torch re-glazing a greenhouse....

Stein climbing jacket here. Not Gore-Tex, but more waterproof than my North Face, which is, and half the price.
-
Cracking day for it Rupe, wet here. Nice job. How did it chip? I always find the bigger needled stuff a bit of a pain, but it seemed to disappear quickly enough! BTW did you charge extra for the Holly?
-
Credit where credit's due. You are a master of the gypsy stick! How do you get the angle? Climb an adjacent tree?

It must be Adam. I used a screwgate carabiner for lowering everything for years before discovering bending radii etc. on Arbtalk. I would stay small with it though. (And yes, I know the technically correct answer is no. I'm a rebel, what can I say.)
