And didn’t you have another Land Rover?

Is that your gaff with the blocked up door? Seems a shame. I imagine there’s a little courtyard through there.

The portrait room at Mick’s chateau-bistro has one of him in the best spot, facing the entrance door. Then a chronological succession of new trucks, each accompanied by their finance agreements (or cash receipts) in gilded frames. A small one of Igor sits between two suits of armour and a sunshadowed rectangle of empty space rests quietly where the wife took hers down to see if he’d notice. She took it down in 2017.

Scared of a worm. Poof. Aim for it. Show it who’s boss. I picked an apple up from a mate’s garden the other day. Had an obvious wormhole. No hesitation. No surrender. Straight into the arsehole end of it and ate everything bar the stalk. I like to think I made some sort of point there.

@PeteB Rat, shit, straps!

Result. Cheers.

From where? Chainsawbars are the only people I know of and they've been out of stock for ages.
-
That’s a bloody good point. A climber brought up on a 2511 and 362 could easily stay with the brand for life.

I was going to drop it to a shop to read the ECU, pressure test etc but timing (scheduling) didn't work. It's the saw I put a new fuel tank on when a branch got dropped on it. Quite conceivable that other damage happened at the same time so I've been reading the plug fairly regularly. Always fine but the running on did worry me for reasons you allude to.
-
OK. Yes. That's a shit plan. I better go and cut something with it. Back to you in due course.
-
Did the reset and put it away. I'll find out how well it runs the next time I pull it up a tree (hopefully never).

On intellectual property:

That's a smashing little piece of history you've made there, Pete. Sod finding a new job. Get onto the internet people about your royalties and have some yacht catalogues sent over.
-
But would it still be vertical if gripped right at the base (bollard notwithstanding) with grab at ankle level?
-
Does your grab go down into scorpion mode with that angled headstock? Or does it if you rotate it 180 degrees, i.e. the headstock rotates with the grab?

Sailor and Mecho taking the air after a brief trip to pets at home to get weighed and have a piss.

The best bit about this thread is that I've finally identified the very close cartoon likeness to Mick that's been somewhere in the back of my mind for about five years. Ave Mick!

I once rode a bicycle naked through a speed trap. Cycling Weekly were very snooty about it, presumably because my bike wasn't appointed with at least Ultegra. I also look forward to the Conglomerated Association of Removalmen and Tutstorers denouncing unprofessional dwellinghouse burglaries.

Ever tried Niwaki?
-
Fairly strong nightmare fuel.
-
I disturbed some with a leaf blower while on the roof of mum and dad's house earlier this year. Was tied on to the chimney. Had to start thinking along the lines of unclipping so I could jump down onto the patio if needed. Massively unfunny.
-
It's the sprung tensioning mechanism. Even has a little internal catch for remounting the bar. All well and good until it breaks.
-
I did a few lifty and dead branches and some epicormic with it on first. Lack of vision annoying and you want the top of the bar for the really frizzy bits. You don't want to backbar heavily though. It's rough and it throws the chain if you haven't got the sidecover tight.
