  1. Trust mine don't either then.
  2. It was black as the ace of spades here too mate, horrible, depressing. It all mad here too mate as there was a massive underground water leak spouting out of the pavement by Crownhill fort, it was like a tsunami running back down the A386 towards the A38, then a four car pileup, crazy. The river going down the road looked funny tho.
  3. 54 reg on were the main head gasket casualties due to a faulty sensor telling the engine it was cooler than it actually was. Crank pulleys, transfer mount, prop bearing (doughnut), water ingress in rear lights, heavy on fuel, poor turning circle. I've had a few now, tough old truck despite the above. Had a double cab and now got single cab; would never have a double cab again, single or club cab only, for me that is.
  4. Good job they don't suffer from S.A.D !
  5. Chip has traditionally been cut at 2.1 / 2.2 / 2.3; two bays of 2.5 on a forwarder goes some way to helping most forwarder drivers who can't fit 2 bays of 3's on. Ask for 12' chip if you're that way inclined but rejecting certain lengths isn't going to do you any favours. The timber harvesting business doesn't revolve around firewood / chip.
  6. Haha only yesterday! Looked tiny in the truck but got it through the hall door and 20" was bent over at the ceiling!
  7. Stopped raining (now I've said it) but not seen unbroken cloud for 7 weeks!
  8. Don't know much about the papers do ya! Think you'll find the Mirror and the Mail sit on opposite sides of the fence. I'm more likely to read the latter btw, but both are low rent rags.
  9. Not been on the news lately eh https://www.facebook.com/lastbastionsofeurope/videos/936965029710905/?fref=nf [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ESI4pTDI9g[/ame]
  10. Take it the gauze is getting ditched soon tho?. I so want one of these...
  11. Do you want me to put up the pics of it mate?
  12. Yes but the M500 did used to be that price; can upload my Fletcher Stewart invoice on here to prove; this was years ago before the price came down and you had the dealership. That's perhaps how the post said £10k
  13. Still doing it here; every other click.
  14. My 166 chimney didn't have the bottom exit, but a grill at the top...
  15. Yes it did! There was second time lucky!
  16. Ditto ditto and probably ditto when I hit submit reply right now...
  17. For me, various, 3 or 4 recent posts...
  18. The Glory Days. I want them back. Slams fist on table.
  19. Lots of Database error when posting and then some duplication...
