What fits one person won’t be comfortable for another. Best thing is visit a dealer and try options on

My wife uses these firelighters to get the kindling going as she’s not very good at lighting the fire when I’m not there. I just use scrunched up newspaper under my free, bone dry kindling

Laurel – Love the smell, but is it really bad for you?
rapalaman replied to John Hancock's topic in General chat
Aah yes, I stand corrected! Knew it was something nasty 👍 -

So long as he was outside with good ventilation it’s not going to be the Laurel. Chip it up inside a barn or carry the brash/chips in the back of a van/car and then yes the (arsenic?) fumes can really get to you to the point of poisoning -
Unlikely with the Red Sea problems lately

Nice standard job every 3-4 years by the looks of it - only way to keep a large specimen like this in that size garden 👍
-
Best of luck with your recovery 👍 the part where you said you’d added pictures shortly after saying it affects the penis had me dreading scrolling down I have to say 😂
-
This exactly 👍 New fence will be pushed out of alignment pretty quickly by the existing Laurel so fell, grind out the roots and replant

Just click on view or download here are screenshots

Dry is dry - are tumble dried clothes any drier than those on the washing line on a breezy day? Tumble drier just uses power to dry, same with kiln dried logs

Could easily turn up to church in that Mick as it’s proper posh looking is what Stubby is saying 👍

I’ve too been with virgin since it was telewest. Use Hotmail without a hitch. I’m not familiar with thunderbird?

Attitude is most important, but please get spelling right as this is your first impression. Job applications, tree reports, quotations, tpo applications- all rely on what you write rather than how you come across as a person 👍

Very late morning check in here - left at 7-45 for a funeral and just got home after a few (lot) of beers. My son has a funeral tomorrow so an easy day of log deliveries and processing for me 👍
-
I have sold plenty of well seasoned yew, right down to just over an inch diameter. Time consuming preparing it for sale but makes a lot more than as firewood 👍
-
Morning all 👍 frosty here too, just let the chickens out then two log deliveries to do before lunchtime
-
We always had a Muscovy when I was a kid - tastier than an Aylesbury. love a properly cooked goose as well 👍
-
Exactly this - last time I saw them was two years ago and it wasn’t great ☹️ up till about five/six years ago he could still hit the notes. I can’t remember the name but he had an excellent guest vocalist at one gig - really really good. Would be good if Ian would do the storytelling, flute playing etc and have this vocalist take over the singing. I’ll just remember the great gigs and play Bursting Out for my fix of old school Tull 😏

GX160 too small for stump grinder
rapalaman replied to woodywoodpecker1888's topic in Maintenance help
At a quoted 4.8 hp this is unlikely to be powerful enough to run anything but the smallest of grinders. what make and model of grinder is it and what engine is fitted at the moment? I’m sure someone with more technical knowledge than me will be along soon 👍 -
😂😂 would have gone every night but queuing for tickets was a nightmare - separate queue for each night. Also had booked to see them in Belgium but that got cancelled. I think I’ve seen them 20/21 times. Jethro Tull/Ian Anderson probably about the same. Still get to gigs a few times a year - everything from Yes, The Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Bad Manners, The Selecter, Kosheen, 80s bands, Evanescence, Within Temptation, Wardrunna, The Hu - I have a very varied taste! Nightwish are on my to see list
-
Me too - saw them total of six times on that tour in 84. Hammersmith odeon four times, Milton Keynes bowl and Crystal Palace 👍

Got it 👍

Got a fwd about 6 weeks ago, roller shutter toolbox and all ali body. Seems pretty good so far. Bit underpowered compared to my 3 litre daily but I expected that. Doesn’t carry the weight as well so need to offload a bit more often but that’s partly offset by much improved fuel consumption - around 30-40% better. Mainly on tarmac is fine - struggles a bit at my tip site when the mud gets really nasty so I avoid the worst areas. Tows 6 inch chipper easily enough

The Shack, Fisherman’s Village, Koh Samui, Thailand I very rarely eat steak but this is one place I always will. All their food is superb and cooked on open coals right in front of you. Not cheap by Thai standards, but less than you’d pay in Europe. Keep meaning to treat myself the the Wagyu “next time” 👍
-
Absolute genius - seen them twice and blown away each time 👍
