Found Bucklers seem to be quite good, but have bought more expensive boots and don't seem to last any longer

If they sold you ppi whilst knowing your self employed then its been mis-sold as self employed are'nt coverd by ppi so you can also put in a claim for mis-selling as I understand it, had lots of good advice from here The Consumer Forums - Page One

As an emergency bodge get some epoxy putty and stick it back together, sets as hard as steel

Probably been covered before but I'm coming due for a new pair of work boots (not chainsaw ones) I've tried all types over the years but regardless of price I seem to walk them out in around 6 months, so any reccomendations? cheers Ed

How far are you prepared to go to get work?

I try and work local if I can but if the jobs worth it I'll travel, however that doesn't apply to the phonecall earlier asking if I'd fetch a muck heap from Tamworth, not going all the way there and back at 16 mph on the tractor -
Yep, most people look at me like I'm mad if I say about Chorlton and the wheelies ello little old lady

Just to let you know I bumped into some tool fairies at the farm earlier today, selling cheap saws and tools, when I went in there was a message from the police ring round saying to look out for the same truck so just to let anyone local know its a white 62 reg toyota hilux with fibreglass back and tinted windows, rang police and they said had got a car out looking for them but just a heads up for anyone in my area

Haha, was the only time I've ever ridden a motorbike, was never much into them prefer 4 wheels

Growing old is compulsory, Growing up is optional and yep I'd kick em up the arse too

I learnt to ride a bike on my mates raliegh chopper, never had one myself, once i mastered it his dad let me ride his BSA bantam round the garden too

Other way is to use a plasma disc on 4" grinder, bit awkward to get it in but will cut through it in no time

The citroen dispatch,peugeot expert and fiat whatever it is are all the same van just badged to whichever manufacturer, guy I worked for had one didnt seem a bad van, only problem was used to get a bit cosy with 3 of us in the front

You were lucky there mate, I bought my old hi cap as cat C salvage due to the drop arm ball joint doing exactly the same, but had done it at speed, when I got it the cab roof was on the headrests and the front bulkhead was bent as it had flipped when the steering went
-
I put anything down to approx 3-4" into the selling pile and anything below, goes in a pile for home or the charcoal burner, burns as hot and lights easier than bigger stuff, only downside is having to stoke the woodburner more often

Just spotted this one on ebay whilst browsing Land Rover Series 2a 109 cherry picker defender | eBay

Try Firebond for the insurance they specialise in modified landrovers

My old B reg landrover 90, was'nt anything to look at but had a 3.0 essex v6 in it from a capri and went like stink

I've always said theres more evidence for "global Warming" being a natural cycle than being man made, climate change scientists always seem to go quiet when asked to explain how the earth managed to warm enough to thaw after the ice ages without mans imput of pollution, never let the facts get in the way of good argument, climate change is big business

Deepest sympathies to you and yours mate
-
I've inherited a few things over the years, mostly old block planes, a paraffin blowtorch (never got it going think it needs new seals), as for useable day to day tools I have a few digging bars 3 of which have been "acquired" for which read found on jobs the two short ones are both black smith made and are far and away better than anything you can buy now

I never said I paid them cash in hand, just what I pay them
