  1. Much damage over that way so far?
  2. Loads of swimmers and wind surfers in the water at Southend this afternoon.
  3. Never done it professionally.
  4. I must remember that one.
  5. One can only hope.
  6. Still sunny, but more cloud about and wind picking up strength.
  7. Blowy with a bit of rain last night, bright blue skies and breezy this morning. Saws sharpened and kit all checked for the morning so off down the beach now to walk off breakfast.
  8. Is that not just what you told the Police? I reckon you clothes-lined the poor sod out the back of the chip box.
  9. Sell it to Geoff, mate. He likes strange top-handles.
  10. To be fair, Dean doesn't discriminate when it comes to beating up members of the public. Pregnant or elderly, he'll fight the lot of 'em.
  11. You didn't say that you had got 2 stroke on your gear. That's a different matter and you should claim for replacement. Get your insurance company to chase up a more suitable replacement vehicle. You should also push for loss of earnings if you can't do work that you had booked in. Oh, and get ready for a barrage of calls from the ambulance chasers.
  12. Indeed. We are monitoring dozens on one estate. They only get felled when safety requirements demand.
  13. British Army Pro Boots. Goretex lined and really comfy.
  14. Thanks mate. I just spat half my tea over the cat.
  15. +1 for Inonotus hispidus here.
  16. Saucer of milk?
  17. Petrol, not oil, is the one to worry about. Still going to be fun cleaning it all though.
  18. Don't know how true it is but I have heard that the amount in UK fuel is to be increased next year. Much as it pains me to say it, Aspen might be looking more attractive soon.
  19. It's all one moulded bit which is also the plug which seals the fuel tank so it's that or nothing unfortunately.
  20. Flywheel came off ok. Recoil spring was covered in crap so cleaned it off in petrol and reassembled. It still seems a bit tired and slow to rewind but I can't find anywhere to buy just the spring without the pulley etc. I also will need a fuel line for it as it isn't sealing in the fuel tank so I shudder to think what state it is in along the rest of it. Any ideas where to look for these online?
  21. And as you now already know that tape doesn't meet that standard, you would be unable to rely on its use a defence if the worst should happen.
  22. Ditto, but charge for the admin that you have already done.
  23. With Stobarts tightening the purse strings, we can take unwanted chip if you are near the Ingatestone/Brentwood area and need to tip off rather than run it all the way home. We do a nice cuppa too.
