  1. Fuxking amateur.
  2. I suspect he instead needs to be on a severe diet to fit in that cab. They’re not big machines.
  3. Depends what he wants to happen with the wood and how much time you have. Could be that you just wheelbarrow a big saw and your lunch across there.
  4. Good reference post.
  5. That's approaching the correct amount of fat.
  6. Leylandii and eucalyptus are a great mix for the same reason. And euc crumbles into lovely coals.
  7. Get you a girl that does both.
  8. Did enjoy a little festive sherry. FullSizeRender.MOV
  9. I basically ignored it and forgot it. A friend and his son dropped in late afternoon. While discussing something next week, I looked at the date on my watch and said, “Right. Well it’s the 25th today.” Neil stares. ”No shit, mate.” Made a little festive effort for a gig last night. For the scene kids.
  10. "I'm not going to get into any arguments... but this is my firmly held belief and if yours differs, let's fxckin' dance."
  11. Blocks the pampas.
  12. Ish. Anyone can complain but my sympathy diminishes when the complainant goes on to then defend the source of their trouble.
  13. You only have this problem of wealthy predators backdooring into the state if you have a state. Shut it.

    Sailor’s prolific (voluminous) shitting came to an end when I shut the door to the room the food sacks are kept in. The thieving bastard had helped himself to about fifteen supplementary kilos over a week or two.

    Careful with that turn of phrase.
  17. That is a fycking disgrace.
  18. Aldi keep moving the cheese.
  19. peds has his on a sling between bridge and bottom swivel so it's at head height and he can pull with both hands from underneath. He's talking about hand wrap(s) outside of the weighted bit of system.
  20. Playing devil's advocate, you could even say wrapping you hand under a zigzag is safer. When the links shatter, at least you'll be stuck up the tree with your hand hurting like hell as opposed to on the floor with your spine hurting like hell.
  21. There are two, overlapping arguments here: 1. If you're going to hip thrust, do or don't wrap your hand. I haven't got a problem with it. It'll reduce grip fatigue and the chance of getting caught is low (unlike rigging, where hand wrapping really is dangerous). BUT 2. You shouldn't be hip thrusting. It's hard as hell and foot ascenders are cheap as hell. They're not even life support so you could buy a chinese one if you really wanted to save a tenner.
  22. Did you think I was joking about the bathcast?
  23. I assume the DEFRA visit was for the tree one.
  24. What’s your degree in, Mark? Poisonous pets an interesting thing btw. Never thought of that.
  25. We came to the end of my woodworking knowledge two posts ago.
