  1. It's only cork-sniffing because of the time of man though. I don't think it was long ago that this sort of sense and intuition was much more common. Or perhaps I have an idealised imagination of the past. Maybe people never noticed these things because they were sick of hedges, fields and general toiling and couldn't wait to get home for an ale and to hear about how the spinning jenny is coming along.
  2. Alternatively, I may have just had the conversation with myself because I can't find it anywhere. It could have been in the members only section. <search term> site:arbtalk.co.uk searches don't find those and I still don't have much luck with the searching on the site itself.
  3. Don't worry about it. Let's get you back to your chair and I'll put the kettle on.
  4. No, I don’t think it is but it made me think of them. I know one in Suffolk that I’m 85% sure is one (hard to be totally sure). Might have photos. Will certainly get some. It's a lovely thing when you notice them. You get more out of the lansdscape, you sense more. Proper cork-sniffing enjoyment of the countryside.
  5. I can't find the conversation I had on here a while ago (probably with openspaceman) about assart hedges so now we have a thread for it. A friend just posted these pictures from Dartmoor. I'm not sure they're true assarts but definitely in the genre.
  6. They almost certainly didn’t quote that just for the branch…
  7. Worse than pointless. Increases costs, work, pollution etc closing and reopening the site. Twice the logistics, twice the cleaning etc.
  8. You’ve been on this traffic directing gig for months now. I hope you’ve been issued a pair of pristine white gloves like a Japanese policeman.
  9. Only ever used Stihl. Finally put this bar and chain I’ve had in the shed for years on a saw. Whatever it is, it took hitting a digger grab to blunt it. Otherwise five hours of just working. Impressive.
  10. I’m with peds on the clicking. Otherwise a nice-to-have but not for £287.
  11. Calm down, dear. It's only a pulley that rotates one way for slick lifting but doesn't rotate the other way so you have a bit of friction while lowering. ISC puts them on one of their rig n wrenches.
  12. I’ve got one without a clutch. You want a clutch. I’d buy the Eder 1800 if I was buying now.
  13. I’m not doing it at all.
  14. That'll be fine. There'll be any number of them on marketplace. Of course satisfy yourself they're not stolen first.
  15. I had a massive plate of similarly small diameter black pudding in Lithuania the other night. Identifiably offally, unlike any I've had here. Weirdest thing was it didn't come with any potatoes, salad etc. Everyone else's dishes did.
  16. Buckin Billy Ray has a roller style one. Watch any of his (four thousand) videos on bar maintenance.
  17. I’m on holiday too (Lithuania). Drugs very illegal here. Killed a whore instead.
  18. SIPPs and SSASs are what you need to google.
  19. Bullace was one of my second guesses.
