  1. That is a real shame. RIP.
  2. I think I'm probably a bit too far away but I have a tip site near Ingatestone, a couple of minutes away from J13 on the A12, just outside the M25. If I can help, I would be glad to.
  3. Makes for safer drivers as you learn to read the road further ahead.
  4. Anybody who puts a bird or animal through a chipper, or thinks it funny to suggest it, is a tw*t of the highest order.
  5. It didn't matter in those days.
  6. Mine had twin SU carbs, a free flow exhaust and an export fan (2 blades). I loved the way the nose used to lift when you put your foot down.
  7. I really miss my Zephyr 6. Best( ie most fun) car I ever owned.
  8. I think it's gas only.
  9. You certainly see some sights. The first time I went a few years ago, a purple Micra pulled into the space next to me in the car park. I nearly peed myself laughing when a bloke got out dressed in full SS gear. My, how the master race has fallen.
  10. Fair point. The only thing we had to do was put a lockable cage around the pump nozzle to stop unauthorised access.
  11. The big issue coming up is the big increase of ethanol in pump fuel due to come in next year. Currently checking with the estate insurance as to what changes we have to make to store a pallet at a time. They weren't ridiculous about our red diesel bund, only requiring us to make sure the nozzle was in a secure cage with a padlock.
  12. I like the empty vessel one. My mum told me a good one too; 'If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all'.
  13. Husqvarna 135. My other half's Dad got one from Forest and Arb for about £150 last year and has nothing but praise for it. He uses it for exactly what you plan to do, namely cutting Arb waste. You can easily afford a new one with your budget, and a couple of spare chains plus a sharpening kit.
  14. Sorry, Jon, no pics but they know who you are and what you did for them.
  15. Are you going to Jonesie's show in July, Jon?
  16. Money paid with a good description of why.
  17. +1 for Clinic Ace. Part of my responsibilities is the grounds of the various factories owned by the people I work for and we use this with great effect. Never tried it on well-established brambles though.
  18. Marolin Decespugliatrici - M400 / M400S / M480 Link for this model
  19. Having spoken to one of the team on the estate, it has apparently been used once.
  20. Sorry, but got no way of getting it over to you. I've never seen it used but it was bought to go on the back of a New Holland TN60DA.
  21. I'll still be putting the full £20 in as promised.
  22. Bump with a few pics. From looking online, I reckon on trying to get about £3,500 for it. Does that seem realistic?
  23. Kingwells in Braintree?
  24. McCulloch 1-51, currently in bits on my bench as it was held together with assortment of odd nuts and bolts when it was given to me.
