  1. We have one with a bottle/jug on it's really a smoothy maker for soft fruits and berries
  2. Well if it is a conspiracy theory to me is some bumf a load of stoners dreamed up sat with tin foil hats on or 50% of America. I've listened to one of our clients she use to in the security services and now advisers the European Union on foreign affairs. Those are her personal believes I can't really see her been a believer of conspiracy theories. I may be completely wrong. Funny how threads evolve into a different subject
  3. The Saudi backed Americas sanctions against Putin it will be good for them in the long run as Russia becomes more destabilised there oil production will suffer and oil price will go up.
  4. I feel like that at around the same amount of sleep have two minutes in the chair and feel like I've slept for a week .
  5. Look at the news not the Weston media They want to get Putin out what better way to do it than turn the people against him with direct or indirect sanctions. They have become use to a Weston lifestyle that's now in rapid decline due to the low value of the rouble. Yes you could argue they have built up there gold stock but in one of the most corrupt country's do you think that will be used for the people or the people in power. The worlds a lot more organised than you give it credit for they will do what ever it takes to stop Putin regaining the former Soviet Union and a return to the Cold War.
  6. A customer who bought one cube off me earlier in the month had his other order of 4 cube yesterday when I asked if they had any other form of heating and his reply was yes oil but we turned it off as we prefr our log burner Just need to find another 600 customers like that
  7. Most of the modern day women by it from b&q at £5 a bag the majority of my customers are country folk who like a traditional fire. The others are Eco warriors who think there saving the environment one log at a time
  8. Makes no odds to be honest central heating oil cheep the mrs puts it on more unless diesel drops by another 15% it's hardly that noticeable
  9. Your a lucky man I use to be like that but getting worse and worse.
  10. Of cause it would those powerful company's are Anglo American they want to bring Russia to it's knees what better way to do it. Once Russia is crippled watch the price of oil rocket up past it's original mark.
  11. There still cutting as much as ever but have vast amounts hanging around the price of hardwood cord is dropping slowly soft wood going up. It will even out oil will not remain low for long it's just all fallen wrong for us this season
  12. Aviva £675we got the 3 l rodeo with over drive on it so it the most expensive of the bunch to install any driver over 21 on comercial LV are also very good we have our Vw caravel with them any driver £800 We get ours through a broker so there's some one to shout at face to face if there's a problem
  13. 14 inch through the 8 way make chunky logs 15 to 16 inch through the 12 makes regular logs but going through a window knife it has to be union free
  14. My tajfun kept sharp will out preform all the other circular machines in it's class look up tajfun 420 joy on youtube most if the videos don't do it justice but you will see what I mean
  15. It's rally hard to give advice on things like depression men don't like talking about it. Use to find myself telling the barmaid in the pub more than my missus funnily enough she now is my mrs. Up until last October I thought i had been to some dark places with loosing a baby and attending many funerals of lads that went before there time. Then bang my boy had his accident you a motion go numb when you see little kids on deaths door or even through it. I use to suffer from depression but in the last 6 months I've learned to put it to one side and be thankfully for my health and that my boy although disabled is happy. Medication for some will work it will take time to find the right one and the right dose. Better to find what the cause is and deal with that if possible. I wear my hart on my sleeve and don't really care what otters think so it bothers me very little if people judge me for posting on this topic.
  16. Yes I've had both but if your in the firewood game sharpening and maintaining a chain and bar should be second nature. You get slightly less saw dust from a circular saw. At the moment forestry contractors seem to call processor grade sub 15 inch which is over most circular saw capacity . I really don't rate a bar or a circular above one another just wonder why others do?
  17. 4 days 3 if I don't get a constant flow of window shoppers
  18. To be honest there are a lot if flats running with no crane loaded one end with forwarder unloaded with tele. Price is reduced by 25% as the bio market becomes stronger it's becoming the norm with contractors having dedicated machines to load
  19. Two things that get my back up are people running big cars and moaning about fuel costs. The second people buying nice cars on the knock then not been able to put them right when they breakdown or been to tight to do it
  20. Even better @£57.00 on the deck in yard.
  21. Because if he killed some one they would strip the vehicle. When Fred had the accident the police believed it to be a high profile case with the risk of one occupant passing away. The insurance company resanrly picked the car up it was in boxes ie parts Police and insurance company's work very closely if they can get out of looking after some one with a servers disability they will it costs tens of millions to look after these people. The car was tip top not one minor fault. Anybody that moans about paying for a pat needs to wake up come and spend the day with my son. If you buy a motor you should have the money to run it maintain it.
  22. No pins no go. Simple to get pins sorted though I'll think you will be surprised at how cheep some of the timber lorries are on price. Disadvantage for yourself is no weigher on lorry.
  23. Wp36 is one of the best machines in it's class simple robust design mine had some serious stick and only ever broke a hose. If you hit a piece of metal it's off to the shop for a regrind if he hits one it's a ten min job to replace athe cost of a tenner
  24. I have two loads of ash coming on the 7th that's all been graded out this is a trial run to make sure it's what's on the tin.
  25. How are you getting on with your glen farrow
