  1. I have kumhos on the back, and mud terrains on the front. The back slips less. Therefore i will be getting kumhos (wqrong spelling i know) all round.
  2. Tie one end to an imovable object, walk away from the imovable object until all the rope is payed out. Pull the rope as hard as you can so that it is all off the ground and let go. Repete 3-4 times. The rope should have sorted itself out by then. Coiling the rope is a pointless exercise, store it like a throwline, load it over your sholder into a suitable containerl. Then next time you need it, it can be used straight from the container.
  3. Assuming the stupid amount of work has started to calm down a bit, yes
  4. 83p seams a little on the cheap side, bearing in mind if it is on a steep site you are going to be working at a slower rate, and given that fuel has rocketed up, you will probably be going through 5l of fuel, plus transport to get to the site. If you fell and sned 100 trees then you will only get £83 ! Don't sell yourself too cheaply.
  5. You had better get to the back of the cue, i have been looking for ages, and still yet to find one that is not on its last legs. Hope your hunting skills are better than mine.
  6. Yer is just showing off now, 4 cuts baah !
  7. No, i know what you what you are trying to say, but you still can not teach something that has a high chance of serious injury in the wrong hands.
  8. The trouble is you are speeking to the converted. (me included, i won't use anything else)
  9. My rayburn regent uses about 5 m3. It heats the water, 2 rads, and we cook most of our food on it.
  10. The trouble with a statement like this is you are forgetting to put chance into the equation, and when it goes wrong you have to put other people into this equation, generally with bad consequences. This is why you are not taught to speed as part of your driving test. This is why we use a chaninsaw with two hands. If you don't then you are excepting the fact that at some point you will have an accident, and are prepared to deal with the consequences. In addition to this due to our ligitgatious socitety if we taught people bad practices then the flood gates would be opened to sue employer, and we would end up with the top handled saw being band.
  11. How much electricty did the dehumidfier use ?
  12. Tete has bigger gonads than anyone. Max respect.
  13. Cheers mate, i will send you the invoice then.
  14. £5m with lycetts, but i might drop back to £2m as i have not done much LA work lately. What ever i decide, it only takes phone call. Always helpful.
  15. I have just come to that conclusion, but it means that i am going to have to part with money. GERRRRRRRR
  16. One that works, unlike mine GERRRRRRR
  17. At a guess the first is Ganoderma (spelt wrong)
  18. Value increases as the moisture level drops !
  19. If you find an 026 lurking, i would be interested in parting with some cash.
  20. So the hedge that i planted last year with 25 tree species, and 9 shrub species, must be over 3000 years old........ !
  21. I'm intreaged, pray tell and enlighten us ?
  22. Count me in.
  23. It has now been proven (jon stokes, tree council) that you can not age a hedge by the number of species in it. As weedee says, old maps and historical records are the most accurate. Your local historical society will probably be more than happy to help.
  24. January has been very slow, but as i sold out before christmas, it is not suprising.
  25. Is that the Ystradgynlais at the top end of the Swansea Valley ?
