  2. When does the ticket buying opportunity stop? I've got my eye on a winning ticket but don't want to leave it to late:001_rolleyes: Sent from Rob's GalaxySII
  3. I can see a foreign exchange program in the future:thumbup: Sent from Rob's GalaxySII
  4. There was a snowsports video on youtube, specifically snowboarders, it was a while ago when I watched it and it was only the preview/trailer for a longer film but I can't remember what it was called as it was a few months ago, I'll see if I can find the link... The camera work was awesome, complimented by the skills of the riders:thumbup: Sent from Rob's GalaxySII

  9. Thats a bloke!! Sent from Rob's GalaxySII
  10. to be honest i don't think there is the "perfect hitch" i started out (on my HC) with the distel and afetr a while, even after undoing and re-tying, in wet conditions it was ridiculously tight, moved on to the knut and enjoyed that for a while before i kind of invented my own michochan hybrid hitch knot thing that worked till my kit got lolered and everything was untied and i could never re-tie it the same again moved onto a VT and like that fact it was loose but gripped when needed, I use OP at the moment and again my kit has been lolered and i can;t get the VT to sit right at the mo?? proper nervy sometimes when it doesn't grip I want a lockjack sport now:blush:
  11. distel can get tight when in wet conditions
  12. nice bottom:thumbup:
  13. Chainsaw juggling? Big shot darts? or big shot target practice?
  14. I'm only 73.2% confident of this:001_smile:
  15. Come on guys:biggrin: I originally thought it was Neolentinus lepideus but have now got an inkling that it might be Pleurotus dryinus

  17. Ball sacks! Sent from Rob's GalaxySII
  18. Couldn't fully hear the audio but got the gist of it. I don't think he should've got involved, he used his physical advantage on a much smaller chap, would he have done the same thing on a same sized bloke? There are ways and means to deal with joe public like this who scrounge the system for a free ride, violence isn't one of them Sent from Rob's GalaxySII
  19. Possibly some sort of fasciation, or even an Ulmus twig, as some sp. do this
  20. Strange, they definitely have a "painted" look to them? Its almost like a pail white primer has been applied? I'll go put me glasses on! Sent from Rob's GalaxySII
  21. has someone painted the cuts?
  22. i didn't say it was ring barked did i? Sorry:blush: what i meant was, will the bit under the retaining ring callous over and include the ring in the healing before the new shoots have a chance to push it off? Never worked on this tree so don't really know, although would it react the same as other trees in the Fabaceae family?
  23. Never worked on a Acacia dealbata before so don't know how well it callous' its wounds especially ones that have been "topped":001_rolleyes: would the "ring" get in the way of any callous forming or would the callous then include this ring in the healing process? Definitely not a waste of time as its this thinking outside the box that furthers progression in this industry:thumbup: Keep us informed, oh and i would've put the slope down in the other way, away from the remaining branch:biggrin:
  24. Changed it for you:thumbup:
  25. remember to go back and take pics:thumbup:
