    No, I didn't mean anything like that, although I do agree that people getting back to 'normal' would save the economy. I still don't believe the 1% are propping up the economy, lots of people are/were furloughed, lots weren't, we all share the burden. Try not to get on ya anti lefty propaganda it makes you sound like a tit, let's stick to what to do next. What this virus as shown is lots of people can maintain their productivity while working from home which in turn is harming other parts of the economy. 4 people earning £25k a year pay the same tax if not more than 1 person earning £100k a year. Things might change when those people who've been working from home through the summer have to start putting the lights and heating on all day and pay for it out of their own pockets?

    All right here Kev, you know me - keep me head down. The Croft (popular area) next to the river as been swarming with old bill since yesterday.

    The Government have realised that instilling fear in people as really fecked up, companies and their staff have realised that people don't need to get on public transport every morning, grab a Costa and a newspaper on the way to the office. Lots of people can work from home and inadvertently kill the rest of the economy so they are trying to fool people back to work, do the thick feckers think people haven't been working as productively from home?, before long companies will realise they don't need big offices in town because their staff don't need to be there to do their job so, to try to get people out again they are telling people to wear a face covering and get back out spending.

    Not yet Les, I'm trying to workout how to drive this new poxy phone. It'll end up back in it's box until I can find a teenager that knows how the bleeding thing works.

    There's a first for everything.

    What will utility be paying for?

    That's what people said when Thalidomide was questioned, that went well.

    I said this earlier, brilliant bit of kit. There's one on eBay ATM for £350. @Dilz if you go down this route don't get one that goes on the jokey wheel, they're rubbish.

    Fit a battery and a Caravan motor mover for not a lot of money, stand still and press buttons. Jobs a good'un.

    Possibly, if I had to get it off I'd get it off. I'd rather give someone twenty quid and have done with it mind.

    You don't really need a forklift that would take less than a minute to offload it if you've got 3 hours to feck about getting it on the deck. I've better things to do with my time.
  13. eggsarascal
    How ya going to offload it?

    I haven't got a vaccination coming, I'll let the others try it first. I know tons of countries are working together on this, which hopefully will speed things up, but I'm not going for it early on. I've kept away from folk when it suits me, sat mainly outside pubs, and BBQ's, wore a covering since asked, but not, if not. That includes signs on shop doors, their shop, their rules. I guess I'll carry on the same.

    You willing to travel @Matthew Storrs? The last two working cockers I had, I had off a gamekeeper. Out of 5 Spaniels I've had, both Cockers and Springers these two were by far the best dogs, both temperament and working. And nowhere near £2k, iirc the first one cost me £800, and the second a grand... I'd not heard about lockdown forcing up prices, no wonder so many are being nicked around here. I've not seen hide nor hair of the old boy due to lockdown but I'd be happy to ask him what's about if you don't mind a journey from far West to far East

    I'm going to do nothing apart from wait to hear how it gets delivered. If it does come on a tail lift I can't believe, (well I can) they didn't ask if you had a way to offload it your end.
  17. eggsarascal
    As @monkeybusiness says there is no reason that that can't go on a tail lift, I'd almost bet that that's how it arrives.

    Ask friends someone must have or know of a fork truck or loader. I've also been known to walk the local industrial estate knocking doors, always been able to sort a lift one way or 'tother. Edit: last pallet I had lifted was by a local farmer with a tractor loader with a set of forks £20.

    You're right there, boating is an expensive hobby. Someone once told me boat stands for Bring Out Another Thousand.

    You forgot to mention you talked me into getting rid of a kidney to hire one at the end of September.
  21. eggsarascal
    I'd guess with it being a hire boat it's no more than 10 years old, it needs out of the water to be re-blacked but that probably won't happen until the end of the season. Trad stern but with that big hatch it looks more like a semi-trad.

    I have a square box thing that projects sound, I don't need to look at it mind.
  23. eggsarascal
    Is this something people do with a TV?
  24. eggsarascal
    Unless you get upto Audlham, it used to take me hours to get through the flight on my own. When I first got a boat I was told by the fella I got it off there was no rush.

    Who's going to police the sale of logs?
