  1. TCD who used to be a member on here is seriously thinking of calling it a day . Forestry is his trade but in Devon there has been sooooo much rain he has only been able to work a fraction of what he should . Big machines ( harvester , forwarder , etc ) to pay for .........
  2. A bit of a come down perhaps but we had a grass cutting round as well as our tree work . Not collect garden stuff but West Sussex CC . Empty buildings owned by them ear marked for housing dev . Some times it was hard to fit it all in . You could try diversifying into that ?
  3. I think some soft woods give out more heat than some hard woods . Just for a shorter time . The calorific value of wood by weight is pretty much the same . E.g. three Larch logs that weigh the same as one Holme Oak log will give out the same energy heat wise .
  4. Get a fair bit of gardening done .
  5. Get a pen . Turn the piece by hand whilst holding the pen against the face . Take it out of the centers and band saw the worst off to out side the line . Put it back between the centers and start on a lowish speed taking fine cuts until it comes into balance .
  6. You have " raised the bar " Graham . Top banana !
  7. Yea but isn't he just " a bit of a Character " ?
  8. Yep . Lots of it . Well done for getting it split as it goes off like concrete if you leave it . Stove only as it pops and bangs and spits . Good heat .
  9. Pissed down all night adding to the mud . Sky has cleared and now the sun is out !
  10. Hitler was " a bit of a character " ? you spout some shyte . Tell the families of all the Jews who died in the camps ...Its ok fellas , he is a bit of a character , that's all .......
  11. Cadburys had a hand in there somewhere . It is a known fault . I dont own one and never have but if you put in a search you will find shed loads on it .
  12. As an aside . I am deafened by the jackdaws coming off roost as dawn breaks . The cacophony of sound they make as the fly " en mass " out to the fields has not changed in my memory !
  13. Clutch needle bearing .
  14. Explain his actions in a court of law ? .....The armed robber was threatening me , with his accomplice , I was in fear of my life and that of my family . I did what I had to do ........You are a plank mate , A total troll To use a phrase you like ...scum bag . View Unread Posts
  15. I wonder how you can be a mouth piece and an arse hole at the same time ?
  16. Fuck right off you idiot ! The blokes door step is not a memorial .
  17. Ok . So your Dad stabs a burglar to death whilst in the process of robbing him . You would be cool with the rellies of said robber leaving flowers at your Dads door ? . Get a grip man !
  18. No . They are already doing it " in whatever way they see fit " Its bollox . They have no right to do it in that way . They should step back and have a look at what the clunt was doing .
  19. No offence taken Steve and no ! . You remember TCD ? He is considering calling it a day due to not being able to get on site .
  20. After over night rain and a fairly dry day ( I even hung out the washing ) It is now pissing down again . The ground is sodden and its pissing me off to be fair .
