  1. 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:
  2. 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.
  3. Ditto and ta for the useful links Alec:thumbup1:
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. What about cycling - got to be significantly lower impact than running?
  7. thought the additional taxes etc on booze & ciggy's was supposed to cover additional cost to society ???
  8. where do you get them and how much???
  9. Had a similar sort of thing years ago, albeit not injury related, but find that the mind is very easily 'programmed' in that it will do exactly as it is told. If you persuade it to ignore these things it will. Conversely if you keep repeating to yourself or others that these things wake you up, the mind will do just that. Used to have the same thing with flying long distance as I could never sleep on the plane until I told myself I would, and I did, and can drop off anywhere these days if I want to. Possibly getting a bit into airy fairy territory, but it works for me - power of positive thought etc etc. I occasionally have to get up early - around 3 am and find I can program my mind to wake me up to the minute. I purposely vary it a bit to see if I can throw it off, but always works. The alarm clock is always set 5 minutes later - just in case
  10. mmmm - always wary of blanket statements, everyone is a bit different and there are a lot of variables- some we are aware of and probably a lot more we are not. Mind you, a lot of people introduce a few extra factors with alcohol/caffine/nicotine cocktails Early mornings are great - can mooch around outside taking in what is going on before the human presence asserts itself on the world with traffic noises etc. Either that or can get a huge amount done between 6 and 8 and then wind down through the day, or have the flexibility to decide what the hell and kick around the park with the kids after school
  11. havnt read all the posts to see other replies to this, but possibly it would take too much meat out of the gate and reduce strength too much
  12. Yup, Roseyweb, link would be good - the google based one doesnt give enough detail, in our area at least
  13. Motorola did a range - TLKR T3 T5 & T7 seem to recall. Not sure if they are still around, but were sold by Argos amongst others. We have the T5 and just happened to do a test last weekend and was quite clear about 500m away through the trees. Dont know how much further it would go as that is the limit of the lads range at the moment - as imposed by his mum.
  14. All depends what you want to do with the machine. have a slightly smaller (and old) Kubota 19 HP with back actor and loader - been very useful for all sorts of things, but the digger is a bit low on power when trenching to be honest. Very versatile though for what we need from it. Regarding the Lewis back actor, will the sub frame fit on the tractor or can it be adated if not??
  15. salaam alekum (?) brothers - Morocco for me Funnily enough, the only Moroccan I know would qualify as obese. Bollocks anyway
  16. Everybody is different, but in general I think the human body likes routine - ie go to bed at the same time every day and get up at the same time. Find if I lie in, end up feeling a bit out of it for a while. Also, as the saying goes - early to bed, early to rise makes you healthy, wealthy and wise. Tried the staying up late and getting up late, but my body at least does not cope as well with that. Your body will tell you what it prefers - if you listen to it!!
  17. damn -that means I would have to buy a nice axe
  18. I don't want to piss on his chips! How does that translate your side of the pond ELG Generous offer by the way
  19. which ones are made in a longer leg (other than stretch airs)??
  20. Attwools (?) near Gloucester do custom tarps I believe. Was going to be speaking to them ourselves to see what they can offer, but that is going to be a bit delayed now.
  21. Pleasant all day here till the school fete was about to kick off cest la vie
  22. Did you empty her out of petrol before putting in the Aspen?? Aspen also recommend not chopping and changing between petrol and Aspen. This was just general advice as I recall, so not sure about your 201T specifically.
  23. seems quite effective on straight grained wood, but what about when the grain is not so straight or a bit knotty??
  24. And I know a few 20 year old 50 year olds too:thumbup1:
  25. Good thread Charlie Just starting out on our small patch and finding the links useful
