  1. My dad came very close to having his hand amputated when he was about 65. Hedgelaying thorn that very nearly defied all the hospital's treatment. His hand started to turn gangrenous after six months unable to work. Then it miraculously started to heal.
  2. Should I be ashamed? Last night I made a chicken curry but my lad was going out and said he'd have some when he got in. He got in at 3am so didn't bother. Well he's milking this afternoon so won't be back till 8ish. In the meantime the dog has decided he likes curry and has got his nose into the pan and eaten half of it. Now I'm going out but I always try to leave him a hot meal for when he comes in so instead of cooking something for one I've topped the curry up with a bit of braising steak and topped the sauce up. Stuck a chilli in there to disinfect it. Can I live with it:001_smile:
  3. Don't think they've ever had me. Always make sure I give the dreys a good kick to get rid of them.
  4. Lucky it's not in the UK. There'd be major problems with leaves on the tracks:001_smile:

  8. You inadvertantly attached a pic that really should have stayed on your PC.
  9. I studied them in Spain. If a Gun mistook one of those for a greylag then he'd need his eyes testing!
  10. I'd have missed the log:001_smile:
  11. I know someone that did that too. Soon sorted the problem out:thumbup1:
  12. Cartridges are dear and no one will have any if you run out:001_smile: Apart from that lovely size.
  13. Wrong on both counts! Thanks for id. I'd discounted Inonotus for some reason.
  14. Is this Rigidiporous or weathered Gano? Probably wrong on both counts:001_smile:
  15. My Dad found an old rusting sub-machine good on an old training camp. Had many happy hours with it as a kid:thumbup1:
  16. Maybe the world should be run by kids:thumbup:
  17. I've had Nissan, Isuzu, Toyota and Mitsubishi over the years. All been reliable and covered many miles. Take your pick:001_smile:

    Excellent but the rich man stays rich:001_smile:
  19. This is the first time I've, knowingly, observed roundup damage like this. Thank you. I had expected a physical contact/union necessary between the trees.
  20. Yes I'd assumed that the clearance must have comprised some oak but the info came to me via a third party.

    Had new ones in '79 and they just had black guard.
  23. Had three pairs of Haix and none have ever let in water.
