  1. I thought it was the other way round . The cherry is used as the root stock and other things e.g. pear are grafted onto the cherry . But as you say the sucker will be from the root stock .
  2. They came down the track near my log pile then drove through a gap into a field of linseed and did endless " dough nuts " on quad bikes . I thought they had destroyed the crop but amazingly it seems to have recovered and is now flowering !
  3. But a nice cup of tea and a Victoria sponge ...well ๐Ÿ˜

  7. Did you know old Mrs Harris then Khriss ?
  8. Does this count ? ...I was about 10 years old , in the boy scouts and it was " bob-a-job" week . About the third house I called at was old Mrs Harris . She said can you tidy my garden . It was a jungle . Stayed there all week . Thought great , she is only round the corner and I should get a good bit of dosh . Yes , at the end of the week she gave me a fcuking shilling . Gutted .
  9. I picked one up briefly and was surprised by the lack of weight for an 80cc saw . It did feel a bit " squidgy " in the AV department and a bit fragile ? It cut fine but no quicker than my ported saws of a similar capacity but as I said it was noticeably lighter . Others have commented on how much fuel it drinks . I suppose time will tell .
  10. There was someone on here a while back who quoted to , I think , reduce a long hedge . He got about half of it done and quit I seem to remember . Someone else finished it off . least I think that is how it went .
  11. I fear I will never be the same again . ๐Ÿ™
  12. Burley make a 4kw one but I think that is a nominal figure . My nominal 5kw one pumps out more than that when on full chat . The 4kw one looks like this only smaller .

  14. I said earlier I have not seen any rabbits lately and then today there was one solitary healthy looking rabbit grazing on the verge as I drove home .
