Rational but gay.

I am extremely pleased to see products like that on the market.

That Dawinchi Hobbs lite is €3600.
-
The forked stick to slide the hitch up in the video on the other thread looked like a big help with one of those. -
I trust he's also presented you with a shopping list?

Matty. Say 500kg of tree needs plucking. Manually is twenty rigs of 25kg. That’s the climber doing twenty tip ties, twenty cuts, twenty rope retrieves and something like forty moves. The groundsman does twenty grips and pulls, twenty unclips and twenty walks/flicks. Geared lifting (GRCS etc) is one rig of 500kg. For the climber, one tip tie, one move, one cut. For the groundsman, three wraps, one short battery gun or thirty-second hand crank. Haway.

Good luck with the injectors. Daunting job but £110 will be cheap ruling-out and mechanical education. Unless you mangle it. And what's the first rule: Don't mangle it.

How much have you used a GRCS?
-
It's only pre-tension though. Better than having nothing but easy long lifts are a multiple of pleasure again. The other major thing is that it lifts a huge amount but so what. You don't often need to lift a huge amount. Trees don't weigh much. You're better off lifting moderate weights comfortably and conveniently than being able to lift the earth, an inch at a time.

Aye. Not mega engaging but the subject matter is useful.

No. I'm not really into drugs. I drink because it's normal (and brilliant) but have never been especially curious or felt like I'm missing much. A few enthusiasts have said I should try shrooms for the intellectual/philosophical perspective they apparently grant you. One, very amusingly, after a few hours experiencing me said actually don't bother, you're already pretty much there, which was nice of them. What are the cafes like then? Dens of iniquity?

I'm thinking what I'd write but in the meantime you might enjoy 10:07 onwards of this. I like his big socket addition. I'd definitely do that if I still had a Hobbs. Ratcheting cranking will be a gamechanger on it.

I've not started drinking yet this evening. Greenmechs are still shit though.
-
Covers it in the first nine minutes.
-
That was my first thought.

Whatever people want to buy, the landlord wants to sell and the shove ha'penny league don't consider performance enhancing.

There are a lot of independent pharmacists. Maybe people would take drugs (like drink) in sociable pubs if those pubs could afford to trade.
-
What have I been listening to? Early Biffy albums.
-
My band had 50 CDs made. We’ve sold two that I know of. Like every other bunch of nobodies then.

Don’t guess what this ash log weighs. I’ll just tell you.

EBay. £40. It’s been bob on with various test weights but probably wouldn’t trust it for aerospace work. Where did Paddy SP go? -
Still does the thing on iPhone where if I go from new posts into a thread and then press back, it doesn’t take me back to where I was on the new posts screen, it takes me to the top.
-
The app still doesn't work.

I’m afraid the answer is primarily lifting logs. Usual gardening. Have a verge to chisel up at some point too. -

The dog has a lower density than the log, you see. Whatever happened to john p? -

Good question. Best thing I have to do that is a dumpy bag. Sense he wouldn’t enjoy it or stay still enough for a good reading. Occasionally take him down to the pet shop to use their scales. 35 or 37 last time.
