  1. I agree to an extent but some times they are too quick to be able to be arsy let alone polite and at the end of the day you can have all the signs , cones , tape and barriers you like . If you kill someone you are still liable .
  2. Morning Doug , morning all . 4c and heavy showers here .
  3. Picture this . (UK) Drop zone . coming out from each side . Big red and white plastic barriers , cones then foot path closed sign . Bloke jogging ignores the foot path closed sign , dodges the cones then vaults the red and white barrier . Jogs on through the "kill " zone goes to vault the next plastic barrier , catches his foot , trips and face plants . Picks himself up jogs on round the cones and the other foot path closed sign . I take my hat off and throw it on the ground in disbelief . Luckily I had shouted up to Steve in the tree about the suicidal idiot . No one likes to be inconvenienced and would rather risk their life than go out of their way by a couple of yards .
  4. Who would be the beneficiary in the will ?
  5. I may be wrong but I thought it was only in certain parts of the country where it was ethanol free ?
  6. The first issue of 201 could fly out of the tree after 10 mins of perseverance .
  7. That is a good point as it stands but , could it end up like the roads , the more you build the more cars there are , foxes , you shoot one another fills the vacuum sorta thing ?
  8. I have 3 of their CDs . 👍
  9. Morning all . 3c and patchy cloud .
  10. On my birthday . Then again 3 weeks later .

  12. Sheraton or possibly Hepplewhite if I'm not mistaken Steve
  13. Insider trading at its worst ! 😁
  14. Re the nyloc nut . Just put a tap through . Preferably the plug tap as its the full thread .
  15. I have a 2t bottle that I bought from DM Chainsaws back in 1857 . I still use it to this day as it has the graduations on it for mixing at 50:1 . Its just that now a days it gets filled with Red Line 2T racing oil and I mix it with Husqvarna alkylate fuel .
  16. Understood spaceman , understood . 😉
  17. Soz . I thought you said " A 60cc saw is what I would use " ....
  18. I could do that but I wouldst coz I have some big saws 🙂
  19. If it starts best on no choke from cold possibly its set a bit rich . Maybe the metering arm needs adjusting .
  20. Middle pic is goat willow me thinks .
  21. Probably , but its not the ethanol attacking the rubber its the petrol itself . All the ethanol does is attract moisture as it is hygroscopic .
