  1. I'd rather deal face to face, see the item before any money is parted, the distance just means 2 tanks of diesel and a weekend. I've bought equipment from over the border plenty of times, my digger was in North Wales, I was in Lancashire just last week and that's taking it back up to the Highlands.
  2. Remember though you're buying the cells, 36v is double 18v. So the Husqvarna bli300 (36v 9.4ah) is nearly equivalent to 4 Makita 18v 5ah batteries, and the prices look fairly similar?
  3. Another, slightly wacky idea, would be a tow behind topper or flail mower (with it's own engine), and then get something cheap to tow it with that you find comfy to sit on. An old site dumper, jeep or even a car? Price of scrap is low at the minute, I bet you could get an mot failure very cheap.
  4. The Farmi wp36 for sale near Wigan was last seen being smuggled over the border into deepest Ross Shire during the small hours of summer solstice Cheers again for the heads up
  5. There are lots of smaller independent printers, have a look on ebay. One I have used a couple of times is MyPrint 247 24hr Online Printing | myprint247 WWW.MYPRINT247.CO.UK Design your own business cards, leaflets, letterheads, compliment slips, postcards & more with myprint247.

  6. I thought everything was cheaper in England?! I'm sure we were paying about £500 a load (20t) for 20mm gravel last year
  7. Dickson have a factory in Glasgow where they make bulk bags. They may or may not make some stuff abroad too? Could always phone them and ask Bulk Bags for Firewood Logs - Log Bags from Sackmaker SACKMAKER.COM Bulk Bags for Firewood Logs manufactured in the UK by Sack Maker. Strong, reusable Log sacks can be made & printed to...
  8. This is what's kinda funny, I hear there's been black lives matter protests in Inverness. There's very few black people in the Highlands. (especially with lock down and no tourists) Yes, there is racism here, but probably 95% of it is anti-english!! #teuchter guilt
  9. That's what I was thinking, you can get chicken mesh in 2ft wide rolls, and weldmesh in 1ft wide. I've got electric poultry net for the ducks here, (touch wood) predator proof so far.
  10. I'm gonna start a protest, "Sassenach Lives Matter" cos I feel sorry for them
  11. I'm gonna knock down jimmy saviles house in Glencoe and chuck it in the river, that'll fix it.
  12. Somewhere in the north? What like Caithness? Don't be silly, that's bandit country.
  13. Wouldn't be a big deal to do that with a good strimmer. I would be worried about hidden fences, rubbish, small trees you'd to keep etc. If you can leave some of the nettles, they're good for the butterflies
  14. A couple years back I spent 2 full 8hr days chipping gorse with my Greenmech CS100 - that was sore but do-able!
  15. Looks good, I can't remember if I asked you this before, was that your handywork at the Black Isle show? I had a nosey round it
  16. scbk

    Jokes???

    They don't have to post it out, it is sprayed over the population by airplanes, the flat earthers told me
  17. Yes and other people sell a saw because it's not theirs to sell
  18. Trailer looks too good to be making a hut out of! Is it brand new?
  19. You should do your own reading on it, but you can have a caravan in your garden without any planning, and have someone living in it full time, hooked up to mains etc, so long as it's in connection with the main house ie a family member in it, not a tenant. Shepard's hut on wheels, static caravan/park home/chalet would count as a caravan, so long as it could be moved easily
  20. Tanaka is great quality professional kit, don't think the prices are as keen as they used to be, don't know what happened there. If you were local I would sell you a spare tanaka long reach hedge/polesaw unit
  21. Have a look on ebay for primer bulbs, usually 2 different sizes and something daft like 10 for 99p with free delivery!
  22. Roughneck Micro Round Shovel 685mm (27") WWW.TOOLSTATION.COM Micro shovel with round point head. Ideal for use in confined spaces. Pressed steel 147mm width blade with solid core... Always handy to have
  23. When you gotta go, you gotta go!!
  24. I need to get some of these labels.....
