  1. I apparently have a head the shape of a horse box !! I’m trying to work out whether that will work for or against me [emoji848][emoji23]
  2. This is interesting , what problems do the ear muffs suffer from ?
  3. I'm at my wits end with my CT helmet. Its dreadful. Always going out of adjustment and you constantly find it flopping around after a short while....its literally doing my head in. So for those of you who already own a Protos, do you think its the best helmet currently available that you've tried and has it been worthy of the considerable investment despite its questionable Power Ranger design influences ?
  4. Is that Eskdale green ? Beautiful
  5. Is there any truth that the butress/root area on a Walnut is the most valuable part? I was told this many moons ago when I first started out...gun stocks, Jaguar dash boards etc all made out of this mythical subterranean woody gold !!!! I've always struggled with the concept but I climb them and don't know anything about milling etc
  6. Bloody hell those are gorgeous. Where abouts are you?
  7. Bloody awful. Going to make for a beautiful patch of bare green once over. as well...and who picks up all the spent burnt metal afterwards at tax payers expense?
  8. If you can split it !!! Bloody stuff. I give it to my mates who think they're a bit hench ....!![emoji12]
  9. My friend used to put a handful of Laurel leaves in a jam jar with a bumble bee, and then when it went woozy he attached cotton to it and had his very own angry furry self powered stripey kite.
  10. Here is a man very much at the top of his game. Nice video, lovely cuts and subtle prune. Nice action Darrin ?? (I really need to practice that SRT ascent shiz [emoji1391]‍♂️)
  11. Deffo Ants. Theres quite a few fields here in Warwickshire that have them. The badgers love to dig them up and my feet seem helpless to avoid tripping over them on an all too often basis.
  12. I'm more questioning of your tiny pink opened toed slipper bottom right of this shot....cheeky
  13. Could anyone please tell me what the b’jesus is going on here ? Last time I checked, Alder don’t have red flowers in August !!! Baffled. Some sort of fasciation perhaps ? .
  14. Hmmmm yes comfort is a luxury banished from ones mind when driving Landrovers and yes they are unreliable, but they’re reliably unreliable which almost makes them nearly reliable ....ish. Personally, I would weep long and hard if mine were to cease service or get pinched. I guess you either love the whole simplicity and classic nature of the design or you go the more conventional and slightly easier route of other alternative slightly blander marques ? No right answer, we’re all different aye [emoji1303]
  15. Or spray it with Buzz Weld CIO and spray the inside with Buzzweld cavity wax. If you’ve not checked out their paint already do so. It seems good shiz although I’m only 6 months in on a chassis coated in CIO (chassis in one ) It seems pretty tough thus far but verrrrrrry early days aye ??! ??
  16. Well at least it’s off road !!
  17. Ah I get it now. Does it not mean a lot of long tail length tying those half hitched whereas the spider sling you’re just whipping the krab end around one end of your limb and choking it and the doing a quick knot of choice around t’other with the spider leg sling already prussiked on your rigging rope? You’ve got 1 x no knot (krab end) and 1 times short tail quick knot (spider leg) , and you’re not having to re-tie your Prussik each time (spider leg already prussiked) ? Seems quicker by some margin unless I’ve misinterpreted your method for which I apologise if I have done [emoji1303][emoji2]
  18. I’ve got to admit Gaz, I’m a tad disappointed that we’re not being treated to more ‘action shots’ of your worldly arboricultural high security adventures instead of a line of Wellies with no evidence of recent work undertaken !! Don’t be shy Gazbot, show us your shiz babes Kind regards Lord Lucan
  19. That sounds very exciting. I guess we'd all love to see your work on those exotic species when you get a mo (if you're a smidge too busy, get the admin staff to pop on a thread.....good promo for your international business like) . Perhaps start a new thread to garner some credulilty with the nay sayers ? Come on Gaz, get clicking, you must have tonnes of EX spert footage of your adventures . Educate the scurrilous charlatans, silence your critics, show boat your talents and pave the way for bringing into tomorropw the next new dawn...... Our-boriculture. Personally I think you're full of shit and a total phoney but I thought I'd give you an intro into proving otherwise before I truly made my mind up . Love you big guy x
  20. Nor that.!!!
  21. well my Mrs's armpit looks nothing like that
  22. Oh superb [emoji93]
  23. Absolutely true.
  24. Now I know this post is old and that I really should take more time to religiously read through EVERY post on Arbtalk..........but please Gaz....PLEASE tell me you're being ironic with this quote ??
  25. Are you running the rigging line through the 2 x slingsand krabs on the limb and then back onto the rigging rope ?
