I was thinking about doing mine soon. Did you try heating the bolts first?
-
Thanks Ian, but I'd rather put up with the pain!
-
Yes, the lineker story is trash, but some interesting stories on the web site at the moment. Bizarre pinging noise in the Antarctic and lost US atomic bomb might have been found. Ignore the trash, and pick out the interesting articles.

Don't fancy steroid injections, but I cant keep going like this. That's why I mentioned tens machine. Might try getting one

Didn't realise tennis elbow could be so painful. Had it for a month now. Like someone else said, at times I can hardly lift a cup of tea. Using chainsaw not too bad, but hedge cutting is really bad. Can't really stop working, but will it clear up by itself? And are these tens machines any good?

Think it's worth a carb, but was just wanting others opinions first, before I buy one

No carb, but only £20 on ebay

Ok, my 15 year old blower suddenly stopped today. Thought it was out of petrol, and it was. However, it suddenly stopped, not coughed and spluttered a bit before stopping, like things usually do. just stopped. Filled her up with juice and she won't start. Plenty of compression, I don't think it's a piston problem. Taken carb apart and cleaned with carb cleaner. All looked ok. Plenty of fuel in primer build, so fuel is getting to carb. Have put a bit of petrol down cylinder and she makes an attempt to fire, but won't start. So it seems to me that petrol isn't getting to cylinder. I checked the spark with a couple of plugs, (grounding on cylinder) and I thought the spark seemed very weak with both plugs. Gap to coil seems ok. Anyone any ideas?

I don't mine the daily mail online. I have the app and look through it almost every day. It's free to use, and the science, health, sport are all there, as well as their main headlines. I just pick out the stories that appeal to me. As, with anything you read in any paper, take it with a pinch of salt. It's usually, just one reporters view. In fact, I'm going to take a look now.

I had my first day in forestry, may 1985 and earned £32 a day for putting bags of fertiliser on trees. That was good money then. A lot better than £25 a week keeping.
-
I saved mine and bought an AYA yeoman. Lived for ferreting, shooting etc. Was offered a job game keeping when I was a kid. YTS, £25 a week. Glad, I didn't take it, as I lost all interest after a year or two. Don't do anything like that nowadays.
-
Think when I started, it was about £7 a day and a can of warm beer. Probably about 1983/4
-
Grouse around here is about £50 a day

The chipper type on eBay would be a good first chipper. But it's over priced. I've a entec ch25 and it's been great. 2001 model. No plans to change it, as it does exactly what I want it to do. I wouldn't pay more that £2500 for that chipper.

I've seen the odd thing like that. But to be honest, I see the knacker Lorry nearly every day up our area, and I think the vast majority are now disposed of legally around here.
-
1980's as mentioned in my previous post that you commented on.
-
Cheers, Gdh. Sort of answer I was looking for.
-
I was looking for an answer mull. Hence, the question mark at the end of the sentences. I was not advocating what was written. However, I'm not too daft on agricultural issues. My father and grandfather were brought up on upland sheep farms. I live about a mile from one of the largest ship auction marts in England, and have done so for the past 47 years. so I do have a clue, Mr Mull.

Perhaps, as soon as Brexit is up and running, we should go down the same road as New Zealand, and abolish farm subsidies all together?. NZ did it in the 1980's and have never looked back. Can anyone explain how they can run a profitable business rearing and exporting lamb over here with no subsidies?
-
If you can confirm, where you lost it, you can have it back.

Done quite a bit of detecting in the past, Paul. Still have the detector, (laser power max 2) but haven't used it in a while. The thrill of finding a hammered coin is something never to be forgotten. Found loads of junk too, my most unusual find was a unused condom, wrapped in foil, with a manufacture date of 1973.
-
Thanks kev. Think I may have it sorted

Ok, I'm a limited company. I'm the only director. I've two people who are on the books and only work part time for me. Both earn under £10,000. Neither want a workplace pension. Neither do I. So, my accountant has me signed up to Now Pensions, even though none of the employees or myself want anything to do with workplace pensions. This is costing me around £15 per month. Do I as an employer, legally need this?

Has it been frosted. Never used the stuff. But, this sort of thing happened to me with kerb-flo

To be honest. I'm looking at a change of career. I've been working with trees for 31 years now. Work is getting harder and I've lost a bit of enthusiasm. Hopefully have a new challenge in the pipeline next year.
