  1. It is hardly russian roulette. Its not even dangerous when perfomed correctly
  2. By the sound of it, it was signed and cordoned off.
  3. As long as you know how to use it (in your favour) in front of customer!!!
  4. There are a lot of company's that have banned the use of ladders including some large tree firms.
  5. That's right, you had to press2 buttons at same time for that move. Completed it on 20p with that move.
  6. Theres a nice transit on Arbtrader for £12k so probably a little over budget. 140 bhp if my memory is correct.

    Pick ups

    Currently running an 08 D/cab ranger which is a nice drive, quick and good on fuel. I put greedy boards on and shovel off by hand. Takes about 2 to 3 mins. Because it has a plastic load liner they slide off nice and easy as do logs. I would prefer a Hi-lux as I have had these in the past but they do command higher money. I would not go for an L200 or a Navarra.
  8. Not my favourite but anyone remember Out Run and Double Dragon?
  9. Elasticated waist with string. Zip leg with plenty of room to get them on over boot. Usually they are so tight trying to get them on/off over boot and end up damaging/ripping them. No need for pocket imo. Rarely need pockets in the rain.
  10. That's the thing, when its mild you need a waterproof that works when you are wearing only a t-shirt on underneath.
  11. As monkeybusiness said, it is likely to be saw dust. It has happened to about 5 pairs of the companys haix boots and each time was sawdust. You can cut a small hole and hook the dust out. A bit of a crap job but does make them wearable again. We have now all moved on from haix to varoous other types of boot. Shame really, cos haix always used to be a good quality boot.
  12. I recall reading this.
  13. That must have been right fun knowing that you did not have to clear it up.
  14. You don't have to put up with your mate singing to himself do you!
  15. And that was when she was ill!!
  16. Get a cheap bicycle lock or similar, just for popping into shop etc.
  17. You are doing him a massive favour by giving him credit. The price should be agreed from what weight the wagon reads when delivered from you to him.
  18. Petrol is more corrosive than diesel. While a small amount wont harm, if it keeps happening it can wreck the seals and injectors which is costly.
