  1. It was 236:1 last time I checked. I can subdue one two-hundred-and-thirty-sixth of a copper.
  2. I am going to buy a combi or at least a spout for this one. Old style MotoMix can. Wish I’d have bought more MotoMix when it came in a such a good can.
  3. So after all that obviously I just bought two litres of the green stuff because it says Stihl on it and is available.
  4. Politics isn't fantasy football. You don't have to choose the exact angle from which you'd like to be kicked in the bollocks. A perfectly viable form of politics is an absence of politics.
  5. That's a clever bit of nudging.
  6. Cars are generally getting bigger so maybe it's not the garages' fault. I mean it clearly is also the garages' fault but what if.

    Aye. Free him every time I check his water. Ties himself straight back up, which in fairness is preferable to him going under the telehandler. He is fortunately scared of the big yellow thing. Not remotely scared of saws though, which he investigates tip first, nose first. He tried felling a fairly senior lady with said tether the other day. Estate agent who liked dogs and was happy for me to leave him in the garden with her while I looked round inside. I'd left the long line on him in case any sheep hove into view (that'd be one way to meet the neighbours). She was talking with some other people who turned up to view. He started circling her like the scene in Star Wars where they trip up the massive walking robots. Good lad. Estate agents deserve it, old women or not. So I'm afraid he's not done anything really moronic for a while. Keep you posted. Won't be long.
  8. I'll let you know how it works when I'm finished litigating with them. More on that another day!
  9. As new builds go, I’ve seen uglier.

    Bored as arseholes and half deaf from 8 hours of 661 earlier. He’s not going to like going back for another five or six days of it.
  11. What makes you think BT or the electricity people own these gubbins? I repelled an attempt a few years ago to steal my meter. Gave them a bit of fixtures and fittings law. I bought a house with something screwed to the wall. That thing is mine. Likewise my house came with some wheelie bins. Some joker had written ‘council’ on them. No no no. My chattels.
  12. **************** em. Get a tank, drive it where you want and point it at them.
  13. I only skimmed this a few weeks ago. That is a walloping big tree. ****************ing repeating post submission again. Make this site childproof.

  15. I was reading something the other day about fixing a Makita drill trigger. So there are at least two people in the world who’ve had that.
  16. The facebook algorithm evidently knows I care about you. Good luck. Worst case scenario, it’s probably nice and cool down your well.

    You pulled off a cylinder with poor plating and that the studs had pulled out of and replaced it with a £130 one that makes 120 psi. Your saw is still worth £40.

    Not spending money on buying crap and then spending more money keeping it going to be left with something still worthless. A twenty-year-old Stihl 066 is worth £400 running. Your blue clone was worth £40 when it arrived.

    **************** sake, you idiot. Don't waste another penny of money or second of time on it. Learn the lesson that it's teaching you and then give it to the next person who needs to learn it.
  21. Well now I'm curious.
  22. I’m pretty sure I bought super rather than ultra last time based on what you say. What’s the chemistry difference you mention between the Stihl greens and this Castrol red? Ester?
