  1. Ah! Ha! Two bunches of grapes shaping up. Fingers crossed.

    Eh!

    The Harbour at Portrush. Harbour bar Guinness. Out with our daughter and first grandchild. Stupendous, terrificly magnificent weather. What life is, or should be, about.

    Eh!

    The deeds are quite clear. They are blocking, by fencing off, to the centreline, in line with their shared ownership to the centreline, of a long established and legally enshrined ROW ( one of 6 on our deeds) I had explained that, in so far as I am aware, from a rural upbringing, that despite someone owning " the soil and bed" of a ROW, it is worthless to them since they cannot "do" anything with it while others have a ROW over it. I am tempted to take direct action by removing the posts, but will wait for our solicitor to get back to us. Cheers

    Eh!

    . P.S. Re the boundary dispute. Our solicitor is now on the case. Enough said.
  5. Anybody able to tell me what the "regen" function is, or does. Is it perhaps like the "float" function for the actual loader rams, but, if so, why would one want the attatched bucket, dung grape or pallet toes to float or regen? Well I suppose getting the bottom of a bucket level to a concrete floor might be one use, but one would usually dip the leading edge of the bucket a fraction, and float the loader itself. Anyway I have never used it, has anybody, and why, or for what purpose.?

    Eh!

    Eh!

    Iffen ah dinny see ony Avacado fruit sometime soon I shall be showing them the Silky or 362! P.S. Also a Guinness appreciation society thread. P.P.S It already tastes like another one. I highly recommend Joeys** Bar, at the railway station in Ballymoney. ** the late Joey Dunlop, and still run by the Dunlop family.

    Eh!

    This thread is fully in keeping with my recent gibber, mutter an twitch ADHD diagnosis. Plus it saves polluting any other threads. P.S. Rapelaman, I cancelled another task I had had committed to fir today, to be about, and will also be keeping a rather close eye on progress on Monday.

    Eh!

    A favour for our next door neighbour, after a somewhat tense situation yesterday over where the boundary was. The bloke who was fir doing the fencing had come many meters out into to our ground to get a lazy clean line. Plus they were for obliterating our visibility splay with a 5' high fence. So a good will gesture on my part. Fingers crossed the fence is put on the revised line, that I was told it was now to be put on.

    Eh!

    Final stump, bark chipped away with a hatchet, then the wee blower. Result.
  11. difflock

    Eh!

    Hi Sur, am on a roll! Wire successfully noticed and avoided.
  12. difflock

    Eh!

    I was quite pleased with that sned, and I simply threw the saw into it.
  13. difflock

    Eh!

    Who needs a stump grinder. P.S. My chain is still sharp. No doubt my hubris will lead to a fall.
  14. difflock

    Eh!

    I had one rooted in a pot a d intertwined with a Oak seedling. I planted the Oak( and Avocado) out sometime of an April. There was 1 nights frost. The Avocado melted!
  15. difflock

    Eh!

    Courtsey of Storm E?????, a few months back. And rather a narrow escape. But! This one got fair dead centre nailed. So? Did I read on here years ago, that "damaging" like stippling the bark with a Silky saw, would encourage growth buds to form? P.S. The other Oaks that I planted and transplanted to the edge of the main Rodden, before paving with old lime mortar demolition rubble, have absolutely thrived, they must love the lime. That is the last 3 images btw.
  16. difflock

    Eh!

    Yup, simply plonked the stone into the soil, and akinda random deep. And Bingo!
  17. difflock

    Eh!

    Yup, They truely grow like weeds, Any Avocado, that we ever bought in Tescos, so nowt special or organic, and planted the stone from. Has invariably sprouted and then grown most vigorously. Impressive if unproductive.
  18. difflock

    Eh!

    But on a brighter note. I do note that the other bath, the one with the Monestra? The Amarillis cannot compete. That thug rules! P.S. All the product of planting out the various Amarillis bulbs we were given as Xmas presents. plus pure benign neglect. I would need to split the bigger bulbs though. They are now sending up 2 strong flower stalks is all.
  19. difflock

    Eh!

    Where did me needle go? Or how?
  20. Still been stonking fine this past few days. And apart from Henry Weston interfering with post lunch chainsaw activities, not much to say.
  21. Bugger! Too good to cut up for firewood. One I had marked for saving. Bugger! Mrs Brown was on her knees pulling that off the stump,O.K. only 1200 rpm, but the front wheels were well in the air, and she was getting it tight. And AARGH ! As I sat to type that, the midges decided to eat me! AARGH!

  22. Keep up the good work Israel.
  23. Look up "Lodar". I imagine that was the brand name I found when musing about converting my electro hydraulic winch to RR op. P S. My email just received a message from whatevwr firm dies "Tyro" remotes.
  24. Oops, Is that to say, that there is no point paying more for the Metabo GG. Or, the Milkuee one is 100% as good as it gets?
  25. I was unaware these battery adaptors even existed WP. Guessing they let one run a physically different battery mount system, as long as the voltage is right? Yes? Thanks.
