    Jokes???

    There is a factory in Essex which makes Tickle Me Elmo toys. The toy laughs when you tickle it under the arms. Well, Shelley is hired at The Tickle Me Elmo factory and she reports for her first day promptly at 8am. The next day at 8:45 am there is a knock at the Personnel Manager's door. The Foreman throws open the door and begins to rant about the new employee. He complains that she is incredibly slow and the whole line is backing up, putting the entire production line behind schedule. The Personnel Manager decides he should see this for himself, so the two men march down to the factory floor. When they get there the line is so backed up that there are Tickle Me Elmo's all over the factory floor and they're really beginning to pile up. At the end of the line stands Shelley surrounded by mountains of Tickle Me Elmo's. She has a roll of plush Red fabric and a huge bag of small marbles. The two men watch in amazement as she cuts a little piece of fabric, wraps it around two marbles and begins to carefully sew the little package between Elmo's legs. The Personnel Manager bursts into laughter. After several minutes of hysterics he pulls himself together and approaches Shelley. "I'm sorry" he says to her, barely able to keep a straight face "but I think you misunderstood the instructions I gave you yesterday... your job is to give Elmo 'two test tickles'". __________________

  11. The 660 is a good strong saw,but my money is on the new husky range,they are very impressive in build & performance. (Now I'm going to have to duck)!
  12. I had a go of Arbogrunts 395 yesterday,what a saw with an 18inch bar on it! I would rather that than the 3120 I have,its just too heavy for prolonged use.
  13. Where abouts are you Mcleish? Might be someone local who can have a looksee.
  14. Looks fun,top handle version would be more fun though,its the future!
  15. If that doesnt sort it get back to us,worst case situation is send it to Spudulike on here,he sorts out most things at reasonable cost. Welcome to the forum.

  22. Well it would be a 'one off chipping job' on that rate,we would all be rich beyond belief,Iwas going to wrap up my tent & Head on up,but thank the bottle of Mateus rose,(Which always helps one consider the viability of getting involved with anything involving effort), so I decided instead to kick the bottle,( that involves no effort,as It is something one does without thinking,& whilst trying to get up off the couch).
