But with the GoT budget or finances why the apparently appallingly writing of series 8, so I was referring to the perhaps deliberate "killing off" of the series, i.e. was there a sub-plot to/story behind, the clearly sub par writing?
-
Any possibility that the actors got greedy/too hard to pay?(while appreciating the money spinner the GoT franchise is) I am waiting on a hard drive with the entire series thereon so will reserve judgement on Series 8, but what I liked about the random earlier episodes I watched, was the balance of the characters, no individually was wholly good or wholly bad(well mostly) or at least even the "heros" have flaws.

Engineering solution for wall, being pushed over by tree.
difflock replied to benedmonds's topic in General chat
Presumably the excavation for the founds, effectively killed the tree? -

That will be a Council job, the planning and execution of the wall building took so long, that the tree had already died and been removed by the time the wall finally got built, but the drawings had to be obeyed! -
Cough cough, actually "Identified". Just saying like . . .

EDIT, Better replies above(once I read them)!

When we built the house back in 1996, we had House Martins move in immediately, for a few years, then they simply did not return, yesterday for the first time I saw a pair investigating one of the favoured West facing peaks, fingers crossed they are here to stay. The Swallows, (and I never could tell the difference between them and Swifts), have been in residence, in numbers, since the couple of sheds were built. Regardless of particular species, it is a pure pleasure to watch them feeding over the pond. I must try and spot the bats again, they are certainly about. cheers mth

Dare I suggest, that if a tractor, or other machine, bought from a large reputable firm like Wilson's, and bought to be worked hard for a living from the get-go, while still under warranty, hours and appearance are no odds, it is a product that merely has to function to earn its keep, i.e. little odds about future re-sale value. It is not bought as an investment, rather a callously depreciated working tool. mth

Indeed Eddie, from a laymans POV they always struck me as being very akward to use, conditioned as I am to our traditional "digger" type geometery, just curious if I missed something, my only thought was from the "gradall" name, in that I suppose for levelling/grading backfill on roadways, or what. But our cousins across the pond are not that stupid, so there must be some niche or reason for this configuration to exist.
-
Why does the US use Gradeall type machines, but the UK/Europe dont, what differs, this has always puzzled me. See link

Who makes the hydraulic components for Huddig then, that makes them more precise? Anyway he sure bes a quare slick operator! Any idea why they replace the concrete sleepers, do the steel chairs wear out, or is it simply preventitive maintenance based on the design life of the concrete? Mind you doing that for a full shift would be beyond monotonous, so guessing they are on piece work..

Good job I choose to ignore(but it took a lot of mindful effort mind!) all that wonderful potential in yer "knob" post Stubby, it sure had the potential to be another "Codwood" thread! mth

Guessing Dutch(from the Dyke cleaning bucket/rake), and from my YouTube viewing I kinda regard the Dutch as the current masters of the various applications of flotation tyre/rubber track technology. Impressive
-
Per Eddies comment re flotation tyres on wheeled diggers, I, for no particular reason(i.e. I am not in the notion of buying one), and probably triggered by an earlier post by Eddie re a Rubber Duck, was pondering the viability** of a flotation tyre equipped Rubber Duck, against a rubber tracked machine, for all round versility, compared to the virtually solid tyred Rubber Ducks of old, which were DEFINATELY only for hard surfaces. Modern flotation tyre technology is truely amazing, especially with the transport speeds now achievable on flotation tyres, but in this application only suited to an owner operator. **Viability in less than good/peaty/muddy soil conditions that is, especially if equipped with a winch for self recovery. I like to dream!

I dont fancy wearing a chainsaw rated Gimp suit for a year while chained to a tree deep in the woods, but other than that, it all sounds legit.

Morso stoves - hit or a miss?
difflock replied to BowlandStoves's topic in Log burning stoves and fireplaces
Well the baffle plate door was only £20.00+VAT + carriage from the Netherlands, so I ordered 2 for £55.00, all up, through Wilsons, Ballymena based with a store in Coleraine. mth
