  1. Its a shame some people will see this and not have the time to watch, I watched it in full and will sit with my 2 girls and watch it again tomorrow, thanks Sean
  2. Aint it about time we had a few more pics Edd ? Some good pics btw
  3. 3.2 v6 not mine but the better halfs, the tipper cuts out if I try and do 60 mph, she told me it had a full tank turns out it was full of air , bless her
  4. No mate I dont have internet on my phone only the laptop, bloomin cost £130 in petrol and took 9 hours but in front of the fire with a bottle of port now so musent grumble
  5. It rained all the way from Bognor to Birmingham and all the way back.
  6. I last went 12 years ago and it was agro from the start I vowed Id never go again and I dont go back on my word.
  7. Well said Ted and good luck Tim
  8. Glad you got it after the loss of your saws
  9. I spent today putting up a new poly tunnel at the alotment
  10. Bought a rake yesterday for £3 the same as the one I bought new on thursday for £18 still dont like the idea of the £1 to get in at Fontwell so gave it a miss and put a shed up at the allotment instead,
  11. I prefer hand stitching
  12. Friday I reduced a conifer hedge, the entire job was done with the 150, no need for the 200 plus silky plus secateurs the 150 has such a fine cut and is so exact I flew through it in no time, now looking forward to mondays hedge reduction
  13. I was quoted £850 3 years back to supply and fit bearings and new fans on a second hand machine I was thinking of buying,
  14. Is it an easy enough job to change the bearings ?
  15. I had a grey Raliegh Mum bought it for me in 85 and it got stolen from Bognor pier in 91
  16. Bmx mag wheels, I was told if they got buckled you could put them in a chest freezer and they would true themselfs but never had them to be able to test the theory. where's myth busters when you need them
  17. The lag seems to improve with use, I only used a couple of tank fulls today but im sold on the little topper.
  18. I run an old stihl 026 and a 66 and neither have ever given me a problem, I also have a 200 rear handle which is also a nice little saw for arb. I had a 365 xp new years ago and it was a pita, Husky gave me a ruff time and I have never touched one since.
  19. Bloooooooomin cracking little saw Reduced 3 cherry trees this morning and doubt the 200 will see alot of use in future unless im dismantling a tree. its like the love child between a 200 and a silky
  20. I've got high hopes for mine, my shoulder plays up after a day making small cuts at arms lenght, seems silly using a 200 when a saw of nearly half the weight is an option.
  21. No I have'nt touched it but im going to be using it tmr all day so will run it in and then have it re tuned. I heard the 201 had a similar problem that could be cured by grinding down the plastic stops that came into contact with the sides of the chain.
  22. Not sure I just gave it gas for a few minutes up the yard this evening and noticed the lag straight off the bat.
