Aye. That looks lovely. Now I have a GRCS, I don't want to climb. I want to hang around on the ground and listen to it click as I wind the handle. The picker. Getting to grips with the nomenclature of them. Is that what's called a stick boom with a fly jib?

Problem solving began before getting to the job.

One of those problem solving kind of days. Picker came without pads so made some. Staked because on a slope. Track mats were sliding.

Ask me in a week or so if you haven't got anything. I'll get a logon from a mate and peruse a legal database.

23:16 and I've just seen off the second of two extremely oily sandwiches. The greenest things I've eaten today are the capers and pumpkin seeds in a pair of bacon and cream cheese rolls. Dill in both, pepper in one, chili flakes in the other.

If you get no better answer, try the Intepretation Act 1974 (or is it 1978?).

Hastings Direct but that doesn't especially matter. This isn't another general insurance question thread and an opportunity for people to idly say try so-and-so. There are millions of those threads already. This is a specific question about this time of man. Of course if anyone has found an insurer who is bucking the trend and making a name for themselves by keeping premiums the same for the same cover, I'd like to hear about them please.

We've been in this even-more-swingeing-than-usual price rises period with van insurance for a while now. My renewal is coming around and sure enough the auto-renewal quote is in line with what I've seen people reporting over the last 6 months or so, £301 up to £574. How have people been navigating this? Just paying up? Going back to comparison sites (last year all the comparison site results were more than the auto-renewal (£292 up to £301) so I let it renew)? Arguing/haggling?

How did becoming VAT registered change your business?
AHPP replied to Excels1or's topic in General chat
I've always wanted to register, get the 4 years worth back (mainly from the abominable amount I've spent on fuel) and deregister one second later. Can't be that easy though. -
How was that possibly deserved?

In praise of natural crotch lowering/rigging.
AHPP replied to Mick Dempsey's topic in Rigging and roping
Yes. Cheers. -
Yes, chef! I try to use the smallest amount of water possible so it's as starchy as possible. Hit and miss whether I get the really sticky quality. Often achieve it with something beige like a carbonara or cacio e pepe but less luck this time. The olives were quite oily before I added the Exxon Valdez of Filippo Berio.

Horses (six or seven maybe) have only been there for a couple of days btw.

Spaghetti alla peds. Got excited and put too much water and oil in at the end. Would have tried to cook it out but the pasta was already dangerously close to being cooked. No parsely. Lashed a bit of dried mixed herbs in. Wish I hadn't bothered. Frankly I wish I hadn't bothered buying them but they were cheap. Anyway, getting better.
-
The vast majority of the regrowth is coming from the stools, very little from along the laid stems. Should the stems be nicked at points along their length to stimulate growth at the nicks? Ah hang on. You're meant to limb the stems before laying them down so the limb wounds do that, right?
-
Not my hedge, not my work. Saw this and thought it looked like a fairly poor job but I don't know why exactly. So what's wrong with it? How could it have been done better? Apologies if it's anyone on here's work. Promise I'm not trying to be snarky. Just seemed like a good learning opportunity.

I was hoping for a blue leg at the very least. My mate, Brian spilled a load of acid into his crotch at work, wearing jeans. Blue knob for weeks apparently.
-
A satisfying bit of rigging. Perfect balance.
-
Anchovies are a win. The leftovers of this pasta approximation have picked up some quality fishiness overnight.
-
Trying to get in touch with@forestrynick. If anyone knows him, could you furnish me with his contact details or ask him to check his private messages on here please.

Might add some heat shrink next time I build some.

The wires on mine have lasted surprisingly well but I treat them very gently, don't put the muffs up on the back of the helmet etc. Those look spot on. No sound isolation, which machine operators don't need and probably don't want.
