  1. Sorry for the hijack, but what happens if there is a mishap that is not foreseen as a risk in a risk assessment ?
  2. bet he laundered them before his next outing the lucky Levis
  3. But what we want to know is, When are you taking delivery of the22 metre 16WD nuclear retort they are always showing off
  4. Yeah, for instance Mark Bolam is always stirring it, whats his real name
  5. Would the stickyness be a problem with SP? Not that Ive got any!
  6. Not much of an expert, but go for a single acting, the connections on the digger become flow and return, and the one pipe to the knocker ram is all you need. Just be aware that the digger will be pumping oil round all the time and the returning oil from the knocker will be competing for a route back to the tank, depending on pipe sizes /plumbing this may slow down the descent of the weight. If it does, then fitting a free flow return straight to the tank will sort it.
  7. We have used the temporary plastic deer netting, however it was attached or next to ordinary stock netting with 2 barbed wire, but has held out for nearly the intended five years. Cant comment on how easy it is to take down and re-use (yet) We put it up on two strands of HT, poles about 6m, hog ringed to the wire and battened on corner posts. From memory it was 1.5 netting installed to 2m high
  8. Perhaps this is the answer to all these retorts getting too hot, fit flue gas recirculation and a lambda probe to run the afterburner Out of curiosity, what is the lowest temperature that will make acceptable charcoal?
  9. Genius!! Ive got the wrong boiler
  10. Its a bit random Steve, sometimes twice in a row, sometimes doesnt happen, but yes, mostly every visit. Do our computers log the web activity on a log file so we could see what is directing our browsers to open this page?
  11. Sadly just reappeared, something is directing the browser to open this page, would it be possible to track that down from event viewer or something similar? Sorry to be the bringer of disappointing news.
  12. I have cleared my cache, and no recurrence (fingers crossed) Any gen on what it was?
  13. Steve I have been getting this fairly regularly. Just looked at extensions on this m/c, it just says "Boo you have no extensions" !! I would be glad to help track this down, just let me know what to do next. Rod
  14. 1300 divided by 26t is £50/t 1.8 cu m for £50 is £27.80 per cube, (for just the wood) (unless Im having a brain fade as well)
  15. It hasnt been pruned for fruit production recently
  16. Chickens digest about half of the corn thats fed to them, so rats (in some countries they feed it to cattle) can eat the chicken s88t and do very well on it. The main problem with having a few rats is that you soon have many, and the damage they do to buildings, wiring, making nests in vehicles etc can cost a fortune. We used to keep a few farmyard geese, one day a pair of rats were stealing an egg, one held it with his front legs while the other dragged him by the tail.
  17. Or the mother in law scenario if it were windthrown? (sorry if that was in poor taste)
  18. + 1 for Otterbox, mines got an iphone 4 in it, which gives you an idea of how well its lasted, and the phone hasnt got a scratch on it.
  19. one of Bolam's decoys?
  20. Im in a complete quandry now:confused1:
  21. Whats the best product to spray on door seals to stop them being frozen shut in the morning? Thanks for your replies, my can of Holts Rubber and Nylon Lubricant has just run out and Ive got to get off early tomorrow, so any remedies?
  22. Have you though of a transcube or similar, you can move it with forks to wherever you want, full or empty. And its bunded and complies with all those regulations we love. Plonk it on the ground = no brickwork = more saving
  23. I stand to be corrected, but I think a lot of plywood comes with beech faces.
  24. farmer rod

    Moles

    If it can pass through the garden and resist the temptation to stop and make a pile of earth, then fine and dandy...
  25. If there is enough work, then a circular saw on a tractor hedgecutter but you will need a big fire and something to stoke it
