  1. Also have something with Gareth’s IQ stuck in the door frame.
  2. Snap. Freshly labelled to help me sleep even more soundly.

    What a year!

    Whether you wanted sympathy or not, you have mine.
  4. Step back from the machine so that we might hear you gurgle with pleasure. I'm having a good day too. I've just received a VAT refund and will soon be giving it to a very affable local machinist for a pink prototype. And a mate just gave me a Stihl combi can he's had unused in the shed forever. And a client paid on time without being reminded. A short but welcome series of fcking results. Here's to us, Mick! Now if the weather could just calm down, I can go and strim the allotment. With a strimmer.
  5. Three pints of coffee, four snickers bars and perusing digger catalogues with my feet up. I didn't choose self employment so I can be out melting in this heat. NB I didn't choose self employment at all really. I'm just fairly unemployable.
  6. Do you do your hot water with wood? I'm the same with the house supply. I'm hoarding it like trees might go extinct, while trying to leave the place. What's the plan btw? Downsize there? Back to Sussex and while away the days playing backgammon with Stubby?
  7. More cutty, less mulchy with the ejection being easier?
  8. Allez, allez!
  9. Tree surgeons who don't heat with wood baffle me.
  10. The Etesia has a Kawasaki V twin. Not sure if it's the exact same one as on my dad's mower but if it is, I recommend it. Very easy to work on. When is a ride on brushcutter a ride on brushcutter and not a mower btw? It's a thing with four wheels and a steel rotary cutting thing. I'd call that a mower but I am braced for education.
  11. You’ll be standing in front of the mirror all evening practising a look that says, “I’m not sure why I’m letting this go so cheaply. I hope you appreciate the favour I’m doing you here, Gaston.”
  12. Just pump seawater round. Save some deveg work. Keep the fish on their toes.
  13. That’s a really good point.

    WOW

    They’re being sentenced next week. Any more guesses? Closest wins a romantic dinner for two at PeteB’s house.
  15. Or perhaps something in the civil service.
  16. Emphatically yes.
  17. God bless you all who get up and turn the wheels of the economy because I’m certainly not going to at this hour. I’m going to stagger round looking for where I left the cafetière until it’s safe for me to operate any kind of machinery. I need a job where I can fall out of bed onto a laptop without it really mattering what I cock up for the first hour or two.
  18. What trailer brand are you having this run of bad luck with?
  19. What ground are you looking after btw? From what you’ve posted on here over the years, I suspect you own a castle.
  20. The bulb is weirdly fine.
  21. Vinegar followed by brake cleaner looks like it’s worked btw.
  22. Yeah. You're right. I'd still like to know how to dissolve it anyway. For the Mad Max future.
  23. That was my first thought. Then I considered the misery of trying to find the part (and it be the right part etc). That's a worse kind of fecking about to me.
  24. Getting a mate's Ryobi strimmer going. Fuel pickup filter bulb is well slimed up from sitting in old fuel. Have it in a jar of white vinegar atm, which I suspect is not doing much. What shall I try when I can be bothered to open the shed? Carb cleaner seems obvious choice.
