  1. before we know it customers will want to keep all the wood for features. beats firewood.
  2. that wood will never bring you the hapiness they did:sneaky2:
  3. just looked at the pictures on flikr, great shots john. thanks for sharing.
  4. if its anything like the one in the other thread.... 395 + vat
  5. cheers for that guys, wasnt sure so thought it best to ask. my kits been in a lock up all over winter so i expected the damp to of covered it in mould, luckily it was all in a decent kit bag. my lid however looks like its now fleece lined its got so much growing on it! will probably chuck the ropes in the bath as the wife will kill me if i break the machine! a little non bio is good right? first time i've washed my kit, might polish my lockjack while i'm at it!! haha
  6. i've just got my climbing kit back and given it a quick inspection after 6 1/2 months of it sitting unused. as i expected there is a little bit of fluffy mould growing on my rope (expected there to be more to be honest). my question is: would the mould affect the integrity of the rope? and also will the rope be affected by staying wrapped as in the picture for this long? pictures of mould and wrap: thanks for any advice.

    dont want to derail the thread so i'll just quickly say 'well said' stevie. had a great couple of days with great people and a great atmosphere, good to to see you all. phill did your tent definately seem alright?
  11. thats one of the biggest cheese graters i've ever seen mark!
  12. great vids, well made.
  13. oi, how dare you use my signature in your avatar without asking:sneaky2:
  14. yeah watched it, not through any pre planning, thought it was alright. found myself getting into it and wouldnt mind watching the series. a bit of a shocking opening sequence.... shooting that little girl in the head! even if she was about to eat him. watched hell boy before and thirteen ghosts after, thought i was gonna have nightmares. lol.
  15. good on you mark. pdgs noone could give you good safe advice based on those images alone. and with little experience its really not worth taking the risk. dito what tommer said.
  16. that thing in the middle looks dead andy, i reckon fell and replant
  17. hes lucky the the tree knocked the saw out of his hand!
  18. what about ham and pinapple or cheese and tomato?
  19. surely the prioraty was to get the thorn out? that sort of thing could wait till he got home:sneaky2: and just my 2 penneth worth, i prefer not to wear gloves when working with thorns as it allows me to feel where they are, the first clue you get of touching a thorn when wearing gloves is as it bursts through and into your hand:thumbdown:
  20. well done mate, good luck out there it sounds like a great oppurtunity.
  21. at least you wont have to worry about the tip breaking in there, you can pull it out from the other side! yooouuuuch!
  22. without knowing how much the ground will be disturbed its hard to say but if you firm it up best you can with the digger this will help. dig the holes by hand with a graft as this will help firm the sides of the hole as you dig. no harm in using extended posts as robert suggested. and use a firm but sticky mix around the posts and tamp it in hard and even. dont dig your holes too wide, you dont want a ball around the post. i hope this is helpful and makes sense.
  23. got to agree with the others.
  24. many congratulations to you and your good wife mark. and you do look a right plonker in that surgeons get up
