  1. What does your sawmill does with the scabs?
  2. I'm currently on horse chestnut, poplar and leylandii, largely to make a point. Plenty of cherry, ash and oak in stock too. It all burns.
  3. Crossed wires there. See edit above. Returning to matter at hand, what battery saw are you talking about that runs out of oil before battery? I've got a Stihl 120 and 220 and they run out of battery before oil, as they should.
  4. Petrol outlasts oil. Edit: wrong and irrelevant
  5. That’s not blind compliance for the sake of compliance. That’s just good ropework.
  6. Do you have trouble with certain types of trousers? Can you get the correct foot in the correct leg with some pairs but not others?
  7. People who can’t remember to top up the oil in a battery saw are total retards. It’s just like a petrol saw. You run out of power. You fill the oil and then put either fresh battery power or fresh petrol power in it. It’s the same thing. How are you struggling?!
  8. You have no idea how bang on the money you are. I am bored as merry **************** with fruit tea. Turned down an extremely tempting glass of port while the bag was counted yesterday. I stand, forlornly by the booze every time I go to the shop. I walk down the dedicated aisle of the other shop as a miniature act of masochism.
  9. Pheasant stew. Meat a bit dry. Got impatient.
  10. What’s the longest bar length in the Stihl 3/8 picco 1.1?
  11. Used mine for the first time in a while tonight. To pull the van off wet grass outside my mate’s house. Only 18:00 or so but felt quite conspicuous with a full chat 2 stroke engine attached to a lamp post. Then dropped him home at 21:30 and accidentally set the van alarm off. Winning friends on his manor.
  12. The one without wheels? I think it looks excellent. Easy importing it? I really should make a small one for my little machine. I suspect the abi one would be too big.
  13. Which abi attachment have you got and how do you find it?
  14. That particular photo has been doing the rounds for years but I know what you mean about not being able to believe anything at the moment.

    Pine needle tea

    My next door neighbour gave me a carrier bag full of socialist teas a few years ago. Probably a couple of hundred quid’s worth. Gave them all away.

    Pine needle tea

    Beer, cider, wine, sherry, port, gin. Had been on supermarket fruit teas but apparently there’s a lot of shit in them. Can’t be too careful.

    Pine needle tea

    Twisted them up a bit last night. Don't recall whether it made much difference. Too depressed. Don't fancy a second pot tonight. Too depressing. Have moved on to sherbet lemons and hoping the house burns down. I love drinking.

    Pine needle tea

    I'm all for an oblique reference but that one was too oblique I'm afraid.
  19. Anyone else partake? I’m off the booze at the moment, for my vocal health you see, hence I’m bored and brewing up random shit I find in hedgerows. This is Scots pine. As far as I can tell, I’m just drinking hot water. Drank it a few times as a child and I’m sure it had some flavour or other.
  20. Turn that map north, you ****************ing monster.
  21. Haven't you got some ludicrously powerful estate?
  22. Fiddling while Rome burns. Bare minimum, scrap the pound and the planning laws. Ideally, scrap the state.
  23. Collies are a nightmare. I had my mate's for a fortnight while he was on holiday. It jumped into a ravine at a house I was viewing in Scotland and ripped a pad. My mate had a right flounce and I’ve not been asked to look after it since. Besides the dog being sore and kept slow for a while (and the fagging about bandaging etc), it was the best thing that could have happened.
