  1. :lol:
  2. damn, I thought I was really on to win the file:biggrin: good thread!
  3. Either because it was going to be frosty and then they wouldnt be stuck, or on impact they inverted themselves????
  4. frosty morning?
  5. 14.350 approx
  6. :001_huh:knitting?
  7. unless the fan still works:biggrin:
  8. the 45 degree limit is to prevent cold (45) water being pumped into the boiler/stove which would cause condensation and the early demise of the boiler. In many systems there is a loop which will heat up first by convection, (sometimes pumped) , the low stat then lets cool water into the loop, but prevents it from dropping below 45. There may be some issue with the design of your system, or you may need to give it more time to reach steady temperatures.
  9. probably is if it was blown over in the recent heavy breezes, beggars cant be choosers
  10. likewise and any ideas on access arrangements?
  11. yes but it was the most amusing thing Ive seen all morning, and makes me look relatively sensible:biggrin:
  12. I had a grab lorry the other day, 8 wheeler, probably six tonnes of wood grabbed up an tipped at mine. £150
  13. I agree, not that I could put up any scientific argument for leaving things be, it just doesnt seem right to be knobbing great lumps off.
  14. my advice would be to build it twice as big as you think you need, because that will still be too small.
  15. not what I was expecting quite, thanks for posting
  16. I dont know, a technical chart with technical words is a valuable resource for arbtalkers, we should vote to keep it
  17. could we have a picture of one of the berries/fruits cut in half please?
  18. they have a spray now so you dont even have to touch the terminals, and they call it progress
  19. Depending on where you are and the tree species, coppicing may provide a better and easier wood production cycle. Most native hardwood trees will coppice and the new growth is quicker to get away from deer and weeds. Last winter we cut one coup of mostly ash, 5 days cutting and one and a half days to forward down to the yard. I estimate 40 tonnes. That makes delivered in chip look quite attractive, and you have the advantage of being able to take artics so your delivered in price is considerably better than mine. Opinions vary on woodland management! I prefer to see land and woodland producing something useful and if that is coupled with environmental benefits then so much the better. There is a Forestry grant available at the moment which will pay for someone to draw up a management plan for your woodlands, which will at least give you a second opinion on which way to go.
  20. where roughly?
  21. just out of curiosity 5 1/4 by how long?
  22. Just been to check, bit of a senior moment, its 75mm, 3-4 yrs old but been kept in a shed and well sheeted against the light, Six packs of four sheets 75 by 2.4 x 1.2
  23. what thickness is that, ive got a load of spare 50mm
  24. could you fax that across to the rabbits who have completely shredded the bark on my apple trees
  25. any ideas on just the empty box, pricewise?
