  1. Reckon you should be buying in roundwood and producing your own logs. Oh but then 26 tonnes on the lorry vs 39m3 @0.7 conversion or should it be 0.55 cos it's less straight but it's been down 2 years plus the lorry was late and it was your wedding anniversary and it rained increasing the weight on the lorry so the moisture meter was called for but then one species seems to produce more logs than another per tonne so no mixed loads but don't want all oak and I'm suspicious of ash green m/c plus I'm not paying for bark so I'll import from abroad until the crate size changes or a pest has eaten the dry birch from the inside and out and set off across the countryside. Wehey.
  2. "The increase of lawlessness..." Bad news.
  3. Well, shouldn't have been if the max rpm wasn't exceeded; not familiar with your machine tho. How old was the one-shot? Running a machine balls to the walls for hours on end tho - nice to have a margin of safety with the lubricant I think.
  4. OOI, what 2-stroke oil were you using?
  5. I'm not convinced anymore. Once they're full o mud yer back to racing slicks and that's that.
  6. Spot the non-original fuel cap... Husky part yes, never on a 242 tho. Saw of heaven.
  7. Indeed...
  8. You are assuming the matrix has never been tickled. Trees that size still at 2x2m matrix, unthinned?
  9. Monterey Cypress aka Macrocarpa has by far the highest calorific value for softwood...
  10. Extreme gusts here, just seen a panel van blow over in car park... Not forecast afaik and I'm not joking
  11. Fantastic! That same family did me over in Loddiswell 2 years ago; broke into a number of machines taking ppe, tools etc.
  12. Might be reasonable to differentiate between the Meindl Airstreams and Meindl Woodwalkers? The latter aren't cold but brilliant.
  13. £30k lol. Good work chaps!
  14. These are hideously high prices; when you can get much nearer £1/litre if you buy 25 litres plus?
  15. There's a C word I never use but they are... Any tyre tracks? There's a known trailer filcher around here...
  16. ISO 140/150 or 100 ?
  17. Me me me me me! Please me! Who's that trip trapping over my bridge?
  18. You're the one finding it difficult. Can you not honestly figure out for yourself what a simpler life might bring ? I'm done.
  19. Question?! Rhetorical. This is hard work, groan.
  20. Well, you won't be if your only measure of happiness is £££££££
  21. "rather believe" what you'd rather believe. We all do that and we're all frankly clueless. Absolutely freakin clueless I can tell you. I'll make a prediction. You'll be worse off financially but better off in other ways.
  22. Mate of mine uses old hydraulic oil; nasty nasty nasty
