Sadly, just heard that the actress Maureen O'Hara has died today. She was 95. Many of you will not of heard of her, but she appeared in some great films during the 1940's, 50's and 60's. I remember her most from The Quiet Man, alongside John Wayne, and The Parent Trap, alongside Hayley Mills. A true Hollywood great. RIP Maureen O'Hara

Ive just left the treebay group. I've never found much interesting on there, and seen loads of abusive posts. Never felt the need to comment on anything on there. The rant on there was the final straw

Just pickled my beetroot. Swede doing well in ground. Tomatoes nearly all eaten. Not a bad year, but beetroot crop could have been a bit better. -
I paid about £70 for one at auction about 15 years ago, complete with about 100m of cable. Someone in the crowd was overheard saying that I'd paid too much for it. Well, that was one of the best £70 I ever spent. Great bit of kit. Essential in forestry, and arb work.

Tubex are the best. Try greentech for a price. If your going to have sheep grazing in the area you MUST protect them with a fence, otherwise the sheep WILL push over and rub against the guards.

Like most people say, I only invest a bit of spare cash, and the highest invested so for was £1000. I've now got around 10 companies with some making money, others down. I use iWeb as the broker. Only £5 a trade.

I've never paid to sharpen any blades in 10 years. Use a bench grinder and jig. Never had any problems.

Used to have a few shares years ago, but sold them when I got a mortgage. Have just finished paying off the mortgage and started buying a few shares again earlier this year. Not made a fortune yet, but not lost one either. Anyone else like a flutter on the markets?

You need a license to use mewps on highways

is there anything you don't need a licence for nowadays???????? -
15l 425 model. I had a few of them, but they all developed leaks on the piston, albeit after a lot of use. still a great sprayer and given the choice between solo and cp, I'd go for the solo every day. But berthoud is my preferred choice. Let down only by a crappy filler cap and a filter that wants to jump out of the sprayer every time you fill it with water.
-
I've now converted to berthoud sprayers. Well worth the money. Still like solo, but had a few leakage problems in the past. Been running the berthouds for a couple of years now, with no problems.

Golf. funny enough, we played east Renfrewshire this year while on a golf trip with the lads. Also used to do a bit of metal detecting and military history research. But golf is my main hobby
-
I did them years ago, and remember the old blue book well. but because there was no ariel rescue then, I was told that if I did what was cs38, then a cs39 refresher, then I'd be up to date. So that's what I did.

Why the hell doesn't he play for Ireland then? If I was in charge, he'd never play for England again.

Not singing the national anthem is an absolute disgrace to those who gave their lives in the Battle of Britain. His non singing and shambolic appearance should have been a source of embarrassment for the party he now represents. Even, newly elected members of the shadow cabinet admit he was in the wrong.
-
Just taken a look at the newly announced shadow cabinet. Thank God he'll never get elected.

Probably a journalist. Travelling the country interviewing ww2 veterans, selling my work and getting lots of free time to play golf.

Sit on your a**e and you'll do well out of labour. Want to live off benefits, vote labour. Like high inflation, then labours the party for you. Want national debt to skyrocket, due to overspending, yep it's labour like Union domination and constant strikes, then it's labour all the way. Like to get rid of our nuclear weapons, leaving us open to attack, then corbyn's your man.
-
The muppets didn't get elected with the left oriented milliband, so the go further to the left. Total disaster for that party, but a blessing for the UK, as he's totally unelectable.
-
Totally agree with you. Best thing that could have happened. Hopefully no more labour for quite a while.
-
Always tastes ok to me!!!!
-
Seems to me NZ has it sorted. No subsidies and cheaper lamb. Well done to them. Perhaps we could learn something of them?
-
I could be wrong, but I always thought it was 100 to 1 mix before 2012, for spot spraying.
-
I got one about a month ago. Used it once for a few stumps. Did the job well. Light to move about. Still early, but can't fault it yet.

I think if you are 50 or over you can be tested annually. I'm 45, but getting test was no problem
