Or Mr. Haynes spending about 3 pages, with diagrams, about how to remove the bonnet from a 1980's Renault 5, well-Doh! Then airily neglecting to mention the 2 entirely hidden and almost inaccessible(way up at the top) bolts holding the bellhousing to the engine. These 2 bolts in addition to the 12 fornicating number(on a 40HP Engine!)| I had already found and removed. Like a simple "there are 14 bolts, find them all" would have been a kinda useful. Ah his nivver forgiven Mr Haynes for thattun! Marcus

P.S. Just to rile 'Eggs, but since our Son has started working in a Post Office, he is well aware of the levels of benefits being paid, since he is home for my 60th birthday party we have been chatting a little. One woman comes in with 2 cards, "clear them out please" so £600.00 times 2 cards (£600.00 being the max payable) =£1,200.00, she is in the next day for the balance, another sum of just shy on £400.00 on one card and a measly £197.00 on the other. So a total of £1,800.00(ish), which might? be for 2 weeks, but even so, not many "ordinary" jobs pay a screw like that, never mind the DLA/PIP car(s) provided outside of these figures. And yet she is apparently living in "poverty", and no doubt her children and grandchildren, ad infinitum, will continue to live so profligately while still living in "poverty". Off others hard earned tax revenues. Marcus

Pyrolysis! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrolysis

Ah! I would have imagined 12V, and thinking of buying a suitable 12V motor-pump unit to replace the one on the sprayer. Depending on the duration of the useage. Or 230V motor-pump unit and then use a 12V battery and inverter for non-mains locations? But what power do you need, or how many litres at what pressure? cheers marcus

mute?, moot perhaps

Is it going to be stationary, or mobile Andrew? so 230V AC or 12V DC? Why not hydraulic, assuming still tractor mounted? More questions than answers, but a start? Cheers mth

Unless one can only access the ends of the logs in the stack, I am perplexed at the need for such a swivel grab, I would have thought a straightforward grab like: https://www.riko-uk.com/product/timber-grabs-loader-grabs/loader-grab-dutk105euro would be a better/cheaper bet. But you obviously have a clearly defined requirement. P.S. From recall (based on comments on the Farming Forum) Albutt are probably the equivalent of Fendt in the tractor world, and priced accordingly.

A "muck grape" should have Keverneland tines, Hardox or not, they are exceptionally strong, I recall being astounded at a farmer(using his own equipment) choosing to lift the rear of a stuck silage trailer with the tip of a Keverneland buckrake tine, it may have sprung a little, but it definately did NOT bend.

I was told by someone who knows, that here in NI, the resurgence of the Pine Marten has, for whatever reason, boosted the number of Reds about.?

The (probably original, buttoned damask had failed) so the Mrs. an me "fell till", I am much impressed with the result, see images;

See image(& actually Jackdaws in the Roofspace), since they are now flying about the roofspace, as soon as they are absent the nest, the hole in the soffait is getting culfed(blocked off) I then got to remove several barrowfuls of twigs and shit! mth

They May(geddit?) need to clear the Law Courts of all other cases, if they are going to take Politicians to Court for lying. Who is up next, and I can think of quite a few. mth

"Tree Rats" says it all. And they must throw off some dog-enticing scent, go since I witnessed our 2 Spaniel/Daschund crosses frantically criss-crossing and following a ground trail, while Mr Grey scurried away 40' overhead.

Recommendations for a Solar kit for a workshop

Eggs, How or why are the batteries wrecked by newbies? mth -
I would be more concerned about the extra long nose, sticking out into traffic at junctions, (and I believe the legal status of Unimog front mounted chippers, not winches as I appreciate, has already been discussed on this forum) it is just that that front mount winch just looks awfully awfully "sticky outy" to my eye. This comment based on my NI rural road junction experiences, never mind getting out of fields/properties onto the County Road. Perhaps a man with a red flag in front is needed? Good luck, an as they say over here "your good health to enjoy her". Regards Marcus

£2200.00 sounds reet cheep to me -
I noticed, a couple of weeks back, that any of the various volunteer Oaks coming up the Moss, that had had the temerity to come into leaf with the unseasonally warm April weather, were well tobered by the subsequent cold blast of air from the North. The fresh green leaves looked more like tea-leaves. And that was even in sheltered locations. mth

maybe sterilise the Jeremy Kyle demographic? KJ, I see a use for that rather neat label, I shall therefore file it away for future use. P.S. Would you still allow them to vote?

Except each of those three pictograms need a 3 diagram to show the fall in the cost of food/the number of houses built on fertile floodplains/population increases/the acres of agricultural land covered with concrete runways to facilitate needless holiday travel, etc etc. All to easy to focus on the farmer, when his choices are driven by or constrained by societies ruthless demands. Unless you can persuade the Green Party supporters to turn up and labour manually for free like the serfs of old, to support the non-mechanical food husbandary they so apparently favour. And eat the very plain fare so provided, you want another bowl of pottage there Jonathan and Siân?
