  1. Nice one Geoff, enjoy!
  2. Just split this lot in 3.5 hours with the new fiskars x27. Best spitting axe I've ever had 😃. Tried to order another one from amazon.com for a mate but no joy, I only brought this one from them last week??????
  3. Sorry to hear of your aggro with this guy! Perhaps you should find out who edits / publishes the village newsletter (hopefully not the same guy) and go to them with your side of the story. Either that or just ignore him. Your regular customers will stick with you. Good luck👍
  4. Exactly my point, nurses are just about the lowest paid out there ! They should be paid a lot more. Should we all be paid as low as nurses to make it fair! Like I said it will just be a race to the bottom of the wages structure and we'll all be knocking our pipe out for very little! Just once I like people to get as upset about a shiny arsed office worker getting well paid instead of getting on a manual workers back. Seems to be the opinion that if you work with you hands we should all be grateful to just scrape a living. Just my opinion ;-)
  5. All I'm saying is that in any job especially in manual work, you will always find someone to do it cheaper. There's enough evidence of that in the threads on this forum. I just don't believe In beating up lads because they earn a few quid. If we do it will soon run round in a downward spiral and we'll all be working for nothing.
  6. As in almost every issue their are two sides to every story and would suggest that the (Tory owned) media is feeding us (the general public) the party line. Talk about divide and rule!!!! I have friends in the fuel industry and has explained to me how the strike is about minimal trained operators who will work on Sunday's/night shift/bank holidays/extrahours/etc without any increments. My pal gets up at 3 am everyday and works a lot of overtime to make his money up & earns nowhere near 45k. They know they get a good days pay and they (the drivers) are trying to defend this. A strike (if it happens) will cost the drivers wages first and foremost money, that they will never recoup. For god sake stop beating up our fellow blue collar workers, 45k is just about a starting salary in the London Banks and those tossers have brought the country to our knees then got bailed out with our money and are now getting fat bonuses. Keep beating a working bloke up cos they earn a half decent wage and we will end up on a race to the bottom. Lastly if it wasn't for the unions, manual workers would still be working 80 hour weeks for bugger all money until you where to ill or old to work, then spat out. The unions have been berks in the past but have done good work too. Rant over. PS the sun is shining, it's a beautiful day to be outside and it's Friday so stop moaning ;-)
  7. Sorted! Thanks guys. Just ordered the axe no problem, will order the sharpener elsewhere.
  8. How did you guys order it from amazon.com! (usa) I tried 3 times to buy it but it comes up at the end of the check out that they won't ship to me in essex?????
  9. Have a look at Jotul, they make great stoves. I have a Jotul 3 cb with about 6kw nominal output, it's fantastic.
  10. I'm interested too! Details to [email protected]
  11. Can you pm me if you still have the firewood available. Thanks
