  1. Where tf did I say that? You are assuming a lot there!!!
  2. Wherever he was born he needs dealing with appropriately- if he’s home grown scum or immigrant. Once this info is released then we will know either way
  3. Preventable - of course. Just consider if Axel Rudakabanas parents hadn’t been allowed in 20 odd years ago, those three little girls in Stockport would still be alive. As has been said many times, we have enough of our own home grown scum to deal with, without importing more by the thousands every month. How frequent do these attacks have to be before action is taken?
  4. Agree with you - the advantage of the 40 over the 26 is mainly the inclusion of an oil tank. mine hasn’t seen much use yet - had it a few months but normally grab the 161t out of habit
  5. I use my Henry to hoover up in the workshop
  6. The gta40 is better than the 26. Depends entirely on what kind of work you’re doing? I use battery 90% of the time but wouldn’t be without petrol saws for the bigger stuff/dismantles
  7. Wetherspoons- 1.79 a pint of ruddles which I would drink out of choice anyway. Range of bitters up to around 3.00 I think. Basic lager is also cheap. But that involves a bus into town and mixing with a wide cross section of society (that’s me being pc!)
  8. Essex - In my local of town pub my usual bitter is 4.20 but weekly guest ales range up to 5.50 for sub 5% and up to 6.50 for stronger/specials. I believe lagers are all 5-6 a pint
  9. I’ve seen the video of him in our local high street asking for directions to the train station - unbelievable 😡
  10. This was done in 2009 and it was a 1999 model originally fitted with all steel body and tail lift. I cut the body off right down to the tipper body rails and fitted an all ally back from a transit onto it. Fabricated all the mountings etc, then the towbar. Found some old pics the missus took while I was doing it - none of the completed article though. I remember the diagonals I put in were really heavy angle iron, and every bit was seam welded
  11. I did my research and this particular model, the Iveco dealer reckoned there was no way that an off the shelf towbar could be fitted - something about the anti roll bar being in the wrong place. If I wasn’t confident in my welding then I wouldn’t have made it. I accept your point though
  12. I fabricated one from box and angle onto a Daily chassis - had it checked by an ag fitter and he said it was so over engineered and strong it would pull a house over. Not sure if it’s part of the mot test?
  13. Even if you can get a metal blade to fit (unlikely), your machine is just not up to the job. It would be like hitching a 3.5 ton trailer to a towbar on a battery powered fiat 500 - just not gonna work. Several very knowledgeable people here have given you good answers - a lot of the guys on here do this for a living 👍
  14. Plus spares availability will be none existant. You’ll need at the very minimum face/ear protection, decent boots, thick trousers or proper ppe. if you’ll be maintaining this area a lot the worth spending the £ - buy cheap buy twice. if it’s a one off clearance, either hire the right machine or get someone in to do it
  15. As Steve said - those battery strimmers are for a bit of light edging around domestic lawns. I would be attacking that lot with a combination of long reach hedge cutter and a brush cutter with a mulching blade
  16. All I can say before commiting is Hire one for a week or two first to see if you both really like the lifestyle you’ll be buying into. A neighbour spent nearly 50k on one, used it a couple of times then sold it at a great loss ☹️
  17. Very knowledgeable and readable, interesting author in the carp world
  18. Had pretty good seat this time - normally up in the gods 👍
  19. I’ve seen them on the last three tours and a couple of times before that too - absolutely awesome band live! I know the lineup is nothing like the original but the musicianship and vocals are fantastic 👍
  20. I’ve seen them on the last three tours and a couple of times before that too - absolutely awesome band live! I know the lineup is nothing like the original but the musicianship and vocals are fantastic 👍
  21. There will never be peace in that region - not in our lifetimes or even our great grand children’s. It’s totally ingrained within their nature to hate each other. And it’s spreading ☹️
  22. Probably quite a lot - mind you it’s lime so they might bring it back when they find out how poorly it burns 🤣
  23. The sections that have narrowed are where they pass through the muscle wall so not suitable to stent. I’m now stuck here for at least another two days while they check the medication is doing it’s job
  24. Thank you! Well the upshot is they didn’t do any stents as the narrowing arteries are in the wrong place ffs! They’re starting me on some aggressive medication to improve the blood flow, heart muscle pumping etc Then as an outpatient I’ve got to have an mri to ascertain whether I have actually had a minor heart attack and what damage has potentially been done. So gonna have to have a rethink on work strategies and roles, trying to take more of a back seat and supervisory position
  25. Type of tree will help as some are more desirable than others and is there easy vehicle access, will it be down, machine for loading or rings to handball? Free or beer tokens?
