  1. They are a big (ish) watch.
  2. Not enough tension on the blade. Get a Silky, or better still, a chainsaw.
  3. Can't believe I said serious and seriously in one sentence. It's like when I was twelve, and the Young ones, was the best telly ever.
  4. Best comment on this thread yet. Seriously, if you are looking for serious quality at reasonable money, you really can't go wrong. And you get Sapphire glass. What's not to love. If you really want to splash out . they even do one with built in GPS. Did I say, they're hard as nails.
  5. Yes always. Suunto Core. Hard as nails, tells me the time, where North is and when it's going to rain. Love my watch.
  6. To the multi-nationals it's protectionism. To the rest of us it's environmental responsibility.
  7. Threat of a letter to Huskie might not go amiss either. I'm fairly sure they would take a dim view of this sort of thing, especially if he's one of their dealers. Oh, and never use him again.
  8. Tell him it's a brand new saw, or trading standards and hse.
  9. Just having one of those days doing anything other than what I should be. Really pisses me off, but sometimes I guess you just have to roll with it. Tomorrow is, after all, another day.
  10. Bren.

    Ticks!

    Yeah Thetford is a bit of a hotspot. I'm further up near Fakenham.
  11. BTW. My favourite off the fast show was Dave Angel, Eco warrior, quality. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_EBZPGeHxU&feature=endscreen&NR=1]Dave Angel Breakfast - YouTube[/ame]
  12. Get thee behind me Satan. :biggrin:
  13. Bren.

    Ticks!

    Hope he makes a good recovery. Horrible disease.
  14. Bren.

    Ticks!

    I use the lighter to get them off my trousers, not once they're on my skin or embedded. That would hurt.
  15. 55k= BOWLER! Sorry, but i've always wanted one.
  16. Can you telling me where? I lost similar 30 years ago, and have always wondered. If it was mine there should have been 2 bottles of Merrydown somewhere nearby.
  17. Oh the shame. I bought it.
  18. True, true. I'm in West'ish Norfolk, but even if it was just over the border, I wouldn't bother.
  19. The whole pile's not worth that much!
  20. Cheers fella, bit of a steep learning curve tbh. First thing, other than a shed, or tree-house, I've ever built. I am enjoying it though. Obviously, the missus can never know that.:laugh1:
  21. Here is my current Weekend project. 13mx7m Workshop. Super insulated. Green roof. It's gonna be amazing. Gutter is, it's for the missus.
  22. Monsanto is most assuredly, a baddie. Just check out some of the lawsuits they have brought in the US and Canada against conventional and organic farmers whose land has become infected with GM from local farms which have grown GM. Not to mention the underhanded tactics they use on anyone they suspect of growing crops which have been infected. They tell lies about their products too. Golden Rice, was marketed as a cure for people in third world countries, who were going blind as a result of malnutrition, what they failed to mention, is that if you are so malnourished that you may be going blind, then your bodies cannot process Vitamin A which is locked up in food, because you lack many of the other vitamins and minerals needed for the processing to occur. A cynical and nasty PR exercise, which they are still pursuing to this day. What no one seems to consider in all this is what happens, in Monsanto World, when all of the "Wild Strains" have gone, when only one strain of corn, or rice exists in the world, Monsantos'. Where does our genetic diversity (the driving force behind evolution) come from? If something comes along that Monsanto can't deal with in the lab, and we have no diversity in our cereal crops. WE ALL DIE!
  23. Can't get the link to work.
