Agree with Morten's comment regarding the placebo effect - put in other words, the human mind is a powerful tool - if only we knew how to use it. Personally wouldn't go on too much about the whole scientific argument. Science is just the accumulation of the latest human knowledge and there is still much to learn on any particular topic you would care to mention. And that is without considering how many blind alleys human knowledge has run up as a lot is based on assumption and hypothesis. Quoting scientific evidence as the ultimate authority just highlights our human arrogance. That said, it is a good place to start, we just need to be open to results other than those predicted by science.

teepeeat replied to Tony Croft aka hamadryad's topic in General chat
mmmm......................... Dont know Tony, but as the grandson of a carpenter and the son of a life long forester/saw miller/woodworker I ran away to sea, but have found myself drawn back to the trees and timber and the people in an inevitable sort of way. Couldn't be happier with it either -
Matt, was going to say good pics, but then spotted the barbie in the corner and though - photoshop, must be. Barbecueing this year, cant be :lol:

got our local Makita power tool dealer to order a part I couldnt find online - gave him the part number, quick phone call to get it added to the weekly delivery. Wasnt a problem that he didnt actually deal in chainsaws.

TCD - if it is your first week, keep at it - perhaps just the body going into survival mode and laying down supplies in the face of a sudden drop in intake. Would have thought that once you have established a good regimen that you will shed it - and more.

Pardon me - sounds like you,ve got a pretty good processor there - cant even get my missus to do the kindling :lol::lol:

Second renewablejohn's suggestion of a Browns. Managed to get on off fleabay recently - older model, but the only difference with the newer model is the wrap around cover for the blade, but if you want that it would be easy enough to knock it together yourself. All that said, not had a chance to flash it up yet and definitely need a new blade as the one it came with had been 'touched up' with an angle grinder apparently

Must check what I paid for mine, but thought it worked out just over double the price of petrol for a direct delivery of 75 ltrs from Anglo American (and saved on having to buy 2stroke) I was under the impression it is available in 200 ltr drums?? Lower cost of petrol is mainly down to economies of scale and a long established, efficient delivery system. I believe that in parts of Scandinavia you can get aspen out of a pump. As an intermittent user, aspen has definitely solved many niggles with my machines. For the doubters - why has Stihl bothered to come up with its own version of Alkalate fuel? (someone did mention the name on another thread, but forgot it already:blushing:) Go on Husky users - thats a good bone to chew on :lol::lol:
-
When I asked about mixing aspen with petrol, they said they would not recommend this. They also recommended not switching back and forth between petrol and aspen. When converting a machine to aspen they also recommended running the petrol dry and draining the tank as best you could. On another note - I asked a stihl rep at an arb show a year or 2 ago about using aspen in their machines and he commented that Stihl were coming out with their own alkylate fuel. He inferred it might even be available in Europe already, but I have not bothered to check. Thanks to Garden kit and others for the useful technical info.

Silly question, but I assume that these regs apply to everyone - commercial as well as private/recreational?? Dont start on caravaners

Willians ??? Remember them well from rock climbing in the 80's, sadly for all the wrong reasons Mind you, had a couple of children since so couldn't have been as bad as I remember :lol:

Suspect that a lot of what we end up snacking on has got very little in the way of nutrition in it, so the body is still calling out for something, but as soon as you give it the right nutrients, you lose the urge to keep eating. Also, think it has already been mentioned on here somewhere that we quite often get confused between hunger and thirst.

Ditto and ta for the useful links Alec:thumbup1:

Teram 1000 seems to be a popular choice. Cant suggest supplier as dont know which part of Cymru you're in. Also depend what quantity you want as some places will sell you whole rolls - from memory 2,25m or 4,5m wide by 100m or you can buy just what you want - although this will obviously push the price per m2 up a bit.

1,97m x 92kg here Did put on a bit of weight over a few years, but have managed to lose it and am back down to my normal weight by eating sensibly and cutting out the crap and watching portion size - just take that 1 spoon less of a few things. Normal active lifestyle takes care of the rest.

What about cycling - got to be significantly lower impact than running?

thought the additional taxes etc on booze & ciggy's was supposed to cover additional cost to society ???
