    So can Grey Squirrels or Woodpeckers.

    Was in Anglesey a few weeks ago and saw 4 reds at Plas Newydd, including 1 youngster out with his/her mum. They're working on ways of reducing road fatalities among reds in the area. Lovely little animals to watch.

    He needs to drink more water.

    Depends on what you want it to do. Assuming you are dragging and not lifting, the worse that can happen if you overdo it is you will break a shear pin.

    I have an Ace 1600kg model which get used commercially on a regular basis and it has performed perfectly. Don't dismiss it just because it's not called Tirfor.

    I know it's not a coherent argument but it made me laugh.
  8. felixthelogchopper
    If you do go down the Tirfor route, have a look at Ace winches. Every bit as good IMO and much cheaper.

    That bloke's got a wardrobe full of crap T shirts.

    You can improvise with a front section of an old canoe.

    I think it's safe to say that Bolam is pure class.

    I thought he didn't need to. Doesn't it just go off on its own?

    Was that when he was Mayor? In other words, the Donald thought there was an existing problem before anybody else was in the position?

    People who think its ok to ignore warnings on prescription meds and turn up for work anyway, putting themselves and others at risk. Just as risky as being drunk or stoned at work.

    Looks spiteful, Tim.

    Good call as it will clean the wound as well as helping to draw out any crud.

    It's a paste used to draw boils and similar out of the skin, mate. I've found it helps to use a sterile needle to re-open the entry wound a little(go around it with some hand gel or similar first) then put a blob on before covering it with a plaster. You'll feel it throb a bit but that is fine. If it doesn't draw it out completely, it should pull it up to where you can dig it out. I use needle nosed tweezers to be most effective.
  19. felixthelogchopper
    Similar, but the paste works all through the night long after a poultice would be cold.
  20. felixthelogchopper
    You could try a good dollop of Magnesium Sulphate paste(get it from the chemists) under a plaster or bandage overnight. It's very good for drawing out anything that is left in there.

    Bugger, that's 50p down.
  23. felixthelogchopper
    I'm going to chance 50p on him meaning a massive fanny.

    They can if they bin all the legislation on worker's rights. It will also be captive right here as the UK workforce won't be able to easily go and work in Europe.

    It's almost as if there was a dedicated Remainer in charge who sees a massive clusterf*ck as the best way of ensuring Brexit doesn't happen.
