  1. I would have got pics if i haemembered my bloody camera this morning ha ha. Aparently its a rolling chassis at the moment with the new chassis. They still have to get the engine onto the chassis and connect it back up. May be ready mid week next week.
  2. The truck is currently in pieces. The garage had toe grind the bolts off they were that rusted. Next job get the new chassis as a roller. Shall get pics of it tomorrow morning.
  3. Time to warm up this thread again. 1-2 - Inocybe geophylla var. lilacina growing on grass just outside Beech Avenue drip line. 3-6 - Inocybe geophylla growing under the drip line of the Beech avenue 7-8 - Oudemansiella mucida found growing on a damaged root at ground level. 9 - 13 - Hypholoma fasciculare 14-16 - Scleroderma areolatum growing at the base of a Common Oak
  4. I use a Canon Ixus 115 hs bought by my colleagues.
  5. It was a fantastic find. The fung are starting to wake up big time down the beech avenue. Its mostly Porcelain fungus at the moment which is fruiting high up.
  6. Check out this beauty. Its a Pale Tussock Moth caterpillar which was feeding on a lime leaf before it fell to the ground.
  7. Our eldest being a prat a few years ago.
  8. The teacher and parents we're told as well. And he was removed from the course.
  9. We had a work expierience lad that smoked weed on his last day. I couldnt beleive it when he spilt the content of his "pencilcase" across the back of the van. I made a call to my supervisor then to a local PCSO which at the time was searching for heavy drug users. The lad was given a stern talking to by the PCSO and the supervisor. Whats worse is he was smoking a spliff on the way home. Glad we have got rid of him.
  10. Autumn is definately here. Now waiting for the fung to wake up.
  11. A few shots of my clan.
  12. Is it going to hit anyone or anything Grasshopper?
  13. A family of Mute Swans keeping out of the fast flowing river.
  14. This is the stour after an inch of rain. The water table is still extremely high so any extra rain just goes direct into the ditches and streams which feed the river.
  15. In bits at the moment. Got a few other bits to sort on the axles before it can be put back together. Mainly oil seal and bearings on the diffs.
  16. I cleared that wall. Was good fun despite it raining nearly all the time. Spraying seems to have worked well too.
  17. Nothing but the finest round these parts ha ha.
  18. Tis a nice spot there. Shame the phone signal is crap.
  19. Natures stunt fell at 4am. Lucky escape for residents as 80ft tree falls down in Bournemouth (From Bournemouth Echo)
  20. Currently hoofing it down at the moment. Glad the boss said to have the day off. No fun chipping thorny stuff in the rain. Had about an inch of rain overnight (according to the dog bowls in the garden).
  21. Not bad for a 19 week pup. Doing 50 yard sit and stays. We've picked a gooden. The black speck is the pup.
  22. Got a local valeting chap going round the garage to give us a quote on a full valet once it is all done. I've told him if needs be put it on the garage bill as the garage owner will pay him for it. He wants a challenge ha ha. He's bloody got one.
  23. Will get the owner to get pics of it as it goes along. Its currently outside the garage as they are waiting for the lift to be free as it currently has a Navara D24 with a shredded gear box. Will be interesting to see the state of the old chassis next to the shiny new one.
  24. The last thing we were expecting to see when raking a wildflower bank that had just been flailed by the local EA's Aebi flail. A Common Lizard:thumbup:
  25. We are getting it valetted after the work is done as well jon. Will be good as new.
