  1. first time flicking through sun newsrag in years today, some scrotes have been felling electricity poles with chainsaws to steal cable. hope it goes horribly wrong for them..
  2. good work, now im going to have to work out how to use my mobile so idents can be done on the battlefield.
  3. ooh spoiling the landy now are we? go on give it a wash as well:thumbup1:.. would it sound too wrong if i asked for a peek at dangerous brian's tranny butt? any pics brian? (oh boy i hope its a pic of a ally ford transit back end now..!
  4. you know the 190 makes sense:thumbup1: i look forward to huge lines of conifer now because my 190 laughs at it all day long.. gone are the days of nipping every branch union and struggling with it..
  5. zubat 330 usually replace every year which means fresh blood every year(never share a silky with a friend).. the clip is annoying on scabbard after a while, can they be resharpened? as i have a small pile of them
  6. can use heras fencing as a roof too then(might need two), all held together with cable ties of course, the half inch ones are considered structural round here..
  7. how many tools did you need to put up the washingline? i had a long layin bed, dreamed of having a big workshop, looked out of the window, had two breakfasts, my ma+pa came round and helped finish tiling my kitchen, watched telly, forgot to run the dogs today again, im getting lazy, i used to run them through the local woods everynight. now watching transporter2 and playing on arbtalk.
  8. say what you want, it works ok for me.. they sent me a loser salesman guy first couple of times but i didnt like him. the new guy is ok and understood when i told him i didnt want to talk interweb advertising this year - just a book repeat, not like yell who still try ringing giving it all the sales bull. i dont like pushy people unless i need a bumpstart.
  9. mine says 'lotus' and just hoping pikeys cant read..
  10. i dont really mind them dislocating as im pretty sure during normal duties of my truck i would probably get stuck somewhere if it didn't articulate as much as it does.. the problem is the not relocating correctly which i dont believe there are parts available for double sprung setups? i do worry i might lose the top inner spring seats though, maybe a cabletie to the spring would help me not lose this part?
  11. use heras fencing with bottom bit buried to stop mr fox digging under
  12. whats wrong with a footpump? this guy just had a slow puncture..
  13. they dont.. you just buy special suspension
  14. well its one of them dissappearing pictures, grr blinking machine..
  15. ooh galvy chassis.. i can dream..-laid under the landy, its peaceful under there apart from the swearing/crying.
  16. arbtalk northern challenge? beats flinging shovels.. (bad shoulder) this guy is trying to jump 3 workmates..
  17. they must have been newish ones, mine started leaking after a month.. good ones too
  18. ah but can you push a loaded barrow along that 1inch wide gravelboard at the edge of the lawn? man skill with machine usefulness?
  19. me three, a lightweight bar eh? might go have a play with the anglegrinder later..
  20. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xADBQyQbIts] hope this works, sat the camera on a pile of wood for 5mins facing a nest, skip to 1:44 to see them get fed..
  21. previous owner had put a new crossmember on my truck and the next bit of chassis had now rusted through, 6mth to go for MOT but dont fancy chances when towing everyday..
  22. i only go to tescos when the woman has broken down, never out of choice, can't stand supermarkets, all that trolley pushing, they even do key cutting at sainsburys but like everything there i doubt they would cut the sort of keys i need anyway.. when lots of small businesses struggle like in some towns after tescotypes move in it seems very wrong.. -machines are ok..-people can be pillocks
  23. i think everyone doing this job deserves a welfare unit between vehicle after work and home..
  24. nice, occasionally all my work kit gets cleared out of the kitchen by the woman, but soon sneaks back in again:thumbup1:.. when its warm the haix'es live in the woodstore just outside the backdoor, keeps em cool - if they smell really bad the dogs fight over who gets to chew them first
