    We do 40 x50 nets not sure where you are

    We only have about 2.5 megs coming down and half a meg going up. I am sure your site is fine but every task takes a second or two which does not sound much but it runs about the speed of dial up years ago. I don't get on here much I just can't get the time and struggle to navigate the new site. We should get fibre in the next year so will be back with avengence

    I test drove the van version. Nice high position a little noise onntransmission but won't notice on a pick up. The thing I never tried was the all important push a heavy traile up a drive gravel or tarmac. Not sure how the axles will wind up or if they will start churning things up.

    Hi if you are collecting 50 bags is minimum but to make it worth while on a pallet you want as much as you can get on as it's the same price. We are getting 126 bags on a pallet currently but not sure if any have gone by freight yet. Or we can send 105 bags. The freightbon a pallet of kindling costs £50 + vat to most areas but not remote or highlands.

    Had my bobcat 17 years . Versatile and reliable . I am getting a bit old for all the clambering in and out. You can avoid a lot of damage on grass by taking wide sweeps and teasing it around corners or 3 point turns.

    AA still cover our 3.5 tonne with 3.5 tonne hooked on the back but that's because we have been with them since 1999. I did read about 10 years ago they won't do it for new members.

    Bfgs are nice and thick unlike a lot of other brands as I found to my cost when buying second hand trucks. It was never long before they were on bfg mt' s they well worth the extra £20 each all day long.

    I never seen one before I don't think they made many of them. Imagine the neck injuries on rough ground :burnout:

    I think I may have spotted a major flaw in the design

    Have been looking at the same thing over the last couple of weeks. I notice no one has mentioned the west coast of France . We like beaches and mountain bikes would this area be suitable ? Possibly taking a new sprinter tl9 minibus could be expensive on the ferry but advantages are full aircon , high driving position and bikes and kit inside. Lots of really useful info on here with places I never heard of and would never think to visit reading with interest . Eventually I might drive to Crete to visit my father but much to see closer to home first.

    If it was me I would commit to a day that way both sides will have a better idea of what's achievable with the kit available. Also some oak can be a real pain to split especially is seasoned a while. If it's hard going at least your only committed to a day and can alter price to reflect work involved.

    I had a medial meniscus tear and had keyhole surgery. The person collecting me forgot to bring a wheel chair up so l walked the half mile on crutches. I was driving the next day but it was the right knee so no clutch work. Climbing trees and in out of machines no chance for a week or two but did everything else. Recovering from the op will probably give you less grief that what you are coping with now. Watch the doc does not sign you off work otherwise your insurance is invalid.

    Reminds me of easy jet

    I slipped some car coil springs over the bump stops on our hilux tipper. They worked a treat did very little when empty but came into there own when the truck sat down. Your air shocks could be piped into the cab and charged with a small 12 v compressor.

    Some examples of this years kindling

    Plenty in stock and not far away

    I test drove a few. The only one that would prise me away from my now very ageing Amazon was the amorok. But we tow 3.5 tonne lots and sometimes along way. 2.0 litre engine put me off. The truck was head and shoulders above the rest to drive and pulled like a train. With the new v6 engine it must be even better.
  23. gensetsteve
    Are we talking l200 here or new hilux
  24. gensetsteve
    Yep your local honey must be the same 👍🏻

    I have tried the local honey but seems to make me pant more .
