  1. You do talk some shite. The majority are Albanians. The last war there ended in 1945.
  2. They’re great Mick, but would you buy a new variant now?
  3. My mk6 has been bloody good to me, God knows what I’d buy now. All the modern options seem to be badly made electronic crap. I’d include all the 4x4 pickups in that statement as well. (Cue some smartarse saying ‘Well, my 6-month old Ranger has been utterly fantastic blah blah blah).
  4. Tesco sell plastic diesel containers though, the black ones. They are 5l mind, maybe the rules change for larger volumes?
  5. Much swearing?
  6. Nightmare Doug. Are you insured?
  7. Less people.
  8. @IronMike too far for you?
  9. Day 2 of connie kills, mainly taking panels out and firing between concrete posts. Twins joined me on site briefly yesterday. IMG_8349.mov
  10. @bigtreedon slotted this one through today and thought of you. 50’, but straight and vertical, pulled by hand. 462 with 20”, 550 bar wouldn’t extend the cut, and I didn’t want to mess around with both sides. Hinge was much more respectable than it looks from this angle!
  11. John just do the course. Pulling out just because your pristine chainsaw might get dirty is akin to never having a dump in case your ring gets poo on it.
  12. Bugger. Google ‘Ramset gun UK’.
  13. One of these, without a nail. Powered by .22 blanks. 503 - Service Unavailable Error WWW.AMAZON.CO.UK
  14. I’ve got one of these for when out and about. They’re meant to be pretty good, and would probably stop a quick opportunist. For storage though, Dan is right, it’s all about layers.
  15. Who will be insured.
  16. You’ll be a busy lad on your own on the ground!
  17. Those remote controlled machines are great, zero risk to anyone or anything, no insurance required.
  18. That’s a good result mate, no comeback if it shits itself either. Did you have to take the cover off?
  19. It would be worrying if anyone could comprehend it mate. Some things just defy rational thinking.
  20. It will if they sign a waiver, surely?
  21. I’m not qualified to.
  22. Just out of interest, what part of Somalia do you work in?
  23. The kids will still be on holiday. (Which funnily enough was how we planned it). They are obviously in the pay of the insurance company mafia.
