  1. No matter what it is it will always be cheaper to import than home produce products in this country. The gov will look for the cheapest price. We will look for the cheapest price. Same as doing a job for someone, if your too expensive they will go for the cheaper quote.
  2. I've got something similar to this but mines a bit more crude. Works a treat, even when you forget about it and open the door yourself after a long holiday an dog to check the tools are all still there. Door mine Booby-trap or alarm - Blank Firing Devices - Pyrotechnics | Airsoft BB Guns | Two tone / 2 tone BB Guns | Airsoft Shop
  3. No doubt you have tried the bay?
  4. Anyone got any pics of the new shirts yet??? Still waiting to see what they look like.
  5. Now that I didn't know. http://www.raf.mod.uk/reds/behindthescenes/dyeteam.cfm
  6. :lol: Sod that straight down the outside and force your way into the queue.
  7. I can't really blame people for trying to sell timber like this. Logs are worth money with everyone fitting burners and fires to try and combat gas prices at the moment. If they sell it then fair play to them really. IMO
  8. Try valve grinding paste. Will knacker the fuel system in minutes. Bleach will not be very pleasent for them either. Any type of course paste type stuff will get caught in the filter and will be very unlikely to make it to the important part. I've seen farmers put upturned tynes burried in gateways so they get flat tyres when they drive through. Could put them around a bowser.
  9. My boy started primary school this morning. No fuss. Even told me to go away so he could get on with it. One proud grinning father walking out the school gates.
  10. My ms Tom Tom is somewhere just off he m1 from the last time I used it.
  11. That's just damn right uncalled for.
  12. Yep I got one. Used it 4 times already and has saved hours stripping down for no reason.
  13. :lol: Although would it still be a nightmare is they were scantily clad women dancing round pointing at your bits????
  14. Sounds like another day at the office to me....
  15. It's relised. Check out the sellers other items. It's got 3 bids already. Was going to say that at least its not advertised as firewood only uncut wood. But then it does say with a bit of work it could be used as firewood. Some truth behind it I suppose.
  16. Yeah that's a must in my book and there always is. There is always two lines put up before I start.
  17. Pah. Good on you. Only good news I got is my boy is starting school tomorrow. Other than that I'm bugged. Broke. And fed up.
  18. No I havnt hence why it's all rec climbing in a private wood the bloke I work with/for owns. Want to get the tickets but I wanted to do some climbing before hand so I know if I'm able to do it before forking out a fortune for a course and relise at the start I'm no good or just too damn scared.
  19. Yeah loads of rock climbing. I don't know why I slipped up and lost balance, just did. I did get told my legs where too rigid and I was moving with the limb rather than allowing my legs to bend. By the time I relised I was off balance it was too late. Got it the second time and managed to do a far bit moving around the tree.

    Sorry I quoted the wrong post Whenever the planes hitting is on telly I can't seem to help but always look at the other side of the tower expecting to see the plane fly out the other side like it was a near miss. I can't help it just my eyes automatically move past the building.
  21. Ok. Didn't go according to plan at first. Went to walk all nice a confident and got halfway out and lost it. A nice impact with the trunk. So a cuppa and a sit down and tried again. Used flip line first then re direct when at the tip. Wasn't too bad and felt a bit like a trampoline at first but soon got used to it. Got to say the first time is really wierd and a bit unnerving. It was more fun coming down than going along.

    I would have to say 1939 was a tad bit different as it wasn't a "revenge" type war more of a defending type war. Nazi Germany occupied europe and middle east, hitler was a tyrant not a terrorist. It wasn't about oil, or suicide bombers, it was about defending countries. If we didn't we would all speak German at some point.
  23. Steve any chance of a sneeky peek at the new shirt designs???? Not going so won't be able to see them.
  24. That's what I'm going to use. Got a redirect ready to go. Plus a lanyard. Will have to play with it all and see what I like using. Anyway I'm off to try it.
  25. I'm going to expand a bit today, got a free morning and I'm going to get a couple of hours rec climbing in. I've done changeovers, and climbing as high as I can, but I want to try limb walking. I've seen a lot and read a bit about it, what does everyone else prefer. Was going to use lanyard and get it further out on a higher limb than the one I'm going out on and going to walk backwards. Until I get out then turn around. Have seen a flip line used under the limb to steady the walk, but not sure on this one.. Would seem a bit cack handed trying to work lanyard, climbing line and flip line.
