  1. Small dmm shackle from Skyland. About a secure as you'll get. Bit of a tight fit though.
  2. I think kids should be assessed for free school meals by their BMI.
  3. What are you going to do about them? Argue on the Internet? Best not to feed the trolls. Good for you for giving it a go. Gender is irrelevant though. You're either useful or you're not.
  4. I was picking up the birth control pill to stop my cycle. Being gay is so 2015.
  5. Last time i was in a pharmacy the lad brought out the prescription and quietly asked what my exemption was. I didn't understand so he showed me the list and then i had to explain that i pay for my prescriptions. He seemed genuinely surprised. It was a busy day in the pharmacy and i hadn't seen a single person before me pay.
  6. Who cares for a garage heater? Nobodies going to check.
  7. Hand to hand. Do it like man.
  8. I was thinking of taking the Mel Gibson approach.
  9. What will you complain about when the tree is gone?
  10. Teabag stays in. Milk gets added 5 mins or so after. I bring my own brew kit. Some customers look offended when i decline their offer then make my own.
  11. I know right, if you fancied a big cock you'd know where to find one I'm sure!
  12. Surely any pickup would fit the bill? Or a disco commercial with retrofitted rear seats.
  13. You're talking about @jomoco he was a very strange person.
  14. Glad it's not just me. Mine are due a touch up after a year or so. That's the other downside to long gaffs. You gotta take them off as soon as you hit terra firma. Any walking around in them and your gaffs soon get blunt. I still maintain anyone running short gaffs hasn't seen the light yet.
  15. Do you find that they run better when they're just a touch blunt? Out the box i was sinking a bit too far into poplar etc. Less of an issue now
  16. If you're gaffing out with sharp spikes of whatever length the problem is your technique. You'll be too close to the stem and spiking in at too shallow and angle. You don't need to stamp the spikes in. Try letting your side strop out and leaning back a bit instead of hugging the tree.
  17. Can't believe I'm taking height jokes from a man who's a beard away from being an extra in The Hobbit.
  18. Did the 056 and the 076 share the same piston? If so i can help
