    always take these cancer causing stories with a pinch of salt (which also has a cancer risk ) seems everything does these days ive come to the conclusion that its over consumption of a thing that may cause an increased risk, as the ol' saying goes everything in moderation

    worth a go I guess thank goodness I live on my own nobody to witness this strange ritual think i'll try some cod liver oil anyway cant do any harm, don't suppose I can do much for my bottom half as that's mostly down to a bike crash I had years ago, but would be nice to ease the discomfort in the hands a bit

    always worth going with the buttons cos those manual bars are a pain in the a**e also we've found they jam quite a bit with bigger bits they take the last bit through the feed rollers it jams into the flywheel stalling it out, get/make a spring puller it makes life easier if this happens, get it sorted in 2 mins otherwise not had to much bother , outside of operator error

    had an experiment today moving some wheatley elm, think that is as long as id want to go, somewhere between 6/7 metre (no tape ) I did have two barrels for ballast but the second one obscured vision too much so stuck with one rocked a bit but wasn't to bad on the whole, but unless its a very good bit of timber I think i'll stick to shorter lengths cos the other factor is s**t! how do I get this through the city!? I took the bypass instead of leaving a trail of broken railings and bent bollards handy thing about the trailer is the lights unplug at the rear so can plug a trailer board in at the back
