    Which part of The Occupiers Liability Acts did you get that from?

    Trespass (as distinct from breaking and entering) is a civil offence, not a criminal, and the only 'punishment' is being sued for any damage caused.

    Speak for yourself, ducky.

    Flymo GT500 running again. Going to give it a new blade before putting it into service.

    Central heating for tramps.

    Here you go, mate.

    Sorry Paul, it's that Bolam and Treequip dragging me down to their level.

    Mate, Jon is doing that because he is a good guy helping out a very good cause. Why some people stroll around arb shows in a pair of Cat C's sweating their cods off, I will never know.

    My first APF was certainly an interesting experience.

    Or off.

    So you mean when my ancestors invaded Northern England, they used Northumberland as a sort of condom?

    About time you lot accepted it too.

    Looks perfect to wear at Arb shows with a freshly ironed pair of ballistics.

    Sounds like a very fair deal in the current economic climate. People often don't realise that just they want/need to earn £100 a day doesn't mean the job warrants it.

    Had a nice big swarm appear in one of the orchards on Tuesday and they seem to have taken up residence in an empty hive there. Lots of activity there over the last couple of days.

    Cheers mate, will do.

    That's the plan if I can get a pass. Just been mucking about with it some more and the spark is a bit weedy so next step will be a new plug. Looks like the cable was gripped over tight by a cable tie or two.

    More good news. Just tipped the old fuel away and it was pink so my worst fears were unfounded.
  20. felixthelogchopper
    Had a fiddle with the cable and it seems to be sticking just enough to catch unless you really haul on the handle. I can get it pulled up enough to get the engine to pull over like a normal un-siezed mower so now I know what I am dealing with. Thanks very much for your help, Rich. Please see me at Jonesies for a free beer.

    Ah, I think I get what you mean. The orange handle on the handlebars at the top? I just held that down while I pulled her over and it was a lot more free.
  22. felixthelogchopper
    Just checked it and the blade turns when I pull on the starter cord. Not sure what you mean by the handle on the top?

    Still going through the kit I've 'inherited' from my predecessor on the estate, I've got a Flymo GT500 hover mower with a Suzuki M120X engine in it. Despite the engine being a 2-stroke, the fuel cap says Unleaded and it is my guess somebody has run it on such as the engine felt as near siezed as you can get without being solid. I've put some oil in it through the plug hole and it will now turn with the use of a socket but I don't see it running without some serious work. It is difficult to ascertain the level of damage through the exhaust port. I know they are a good machine on slopes, and the particular site this machine is from has more than a few, so will I be able to source the parts to fix it? I'd like to get it done as I reckon it will be very useful.

    Monsanto?
