  1. Just at the weekend eh!? Think I may have met you in 'The Mighty Fine' pub in Pompey! Ha ha
  2. BASC discount currently 18% (on Invincible, Invincible X and all auto models) until end of Sep 17!
  3. I work for an oil services company in Saudi. All I can say is there is no sign of production slowing down. I would guess that Saudi domestic consumption of the overall output is nothing more than a teacup out of a bath full of oil. As Trigger Andy eluded to, extraction methods have improved, and reservoirs that were not profitable to tap historically are now so. I don't think Saudi is anywhere near the dregs of the barrel yet!
  4. Speak with Riko, they will give you some good advice and options. Riko UK :: Welcome to Riko UK and Alpine Tractors
  5. [ATTACH]222177[/ATTACH] Combination of poor tyre pressure, slopey ground and uneven loading. If it had been anything other than an alpine it would have probably tipped the tractor too. Surprised just how easy these little trailers will tip.
  6. Oh bugger! Looks like we grubbed em out too soon! Was concerned it would spread to the rest. I assume the spuds will be ok if we leave em underground a couple of weeks. Thx for advice
  7. Thanks guys. Bit late Paul, my Mrs has cut them back to the ground! First year we have grown them and probably made a few mistakes, watering the leaves, planted a bit tight together. Not sure what the variety is as away at work. Will check when home. Hopefully the ones we planted out of boxes will do ok.
  8. Think my spuds have been hit with blight? Any top tips appreciated
  9. Matelot your use of 'white British' is offensive. British is British and illegal immigrants are illegal! Colour or religion has nothing to do with it. Over the years both in and out of the military, I have met, worked with, befriended and fought alongside inspirational British people from all races and religions. I have also met some white British despicable, bigoted, lazy ar*eholes! Please don't spin this conversation to your own racist agenda, or 'Royal' will get upset!😉
  10. Will be interesting to see how they handle the 'compo' issue! Will illegal immigrants be entitled to claim? What about landlords who illegally sub-letted flats? Prosecuted? What about the persons who allegedly stole and sold fire doors......culpable manslaughter?
  11. I'm with you Marcus, also zero claims since 87. But if I managed to break the £300 glass and the cause was covered within the accidental damage clause of my policy, you can be assured I would claim! No brainier...
  12. So have I mate, aint she great, and worth every penny of the 62p/pp she costs! God Save The Queen!
  13. Im hoping I'm not gonna have to replace it any time soon! Would be an insurance claim at that price mate.
  14. If you want something more contemporary the Morso 7000 range pedestal stove is a good choice. Approx 7Kw.
  15. Couple of beauties there Stubby. Do you work cocker?
  16. Libtard! New one on me, will add to my vocabulary and try and use daily
  17. Another option.... We have a Dunsley Yorkshire boiler stove that feeds a thermal bank. Gives approx 8Kw to water and 6Kw to the room. Great bit of kit, and talking of weight/quality this beast weighs 200kg!! Without the fire dogs:biggrin: Another point worth mentioning to potential stove purchasers is that a dedicated woodburner attracts a discounted VAT rate which aint applicable to a multi-fuel stove.
  18. Well said! That might stop some of the wasters signing up for basically 3yrs of pissing up and carrying on! Once students leave Uni their tax band/code should be adjusted and the student loan recovered with immediate effect (on employment).
  19. What ever you do don't go too big! Running a WBS at slumber all the time ain't good for the stove, flue or environment. If you can go for external air supply so much the better, no annoying draft!

    A/t tyre

    I have the General Grabbet AT (don't think they do the AT2 anymore) on my Hilux. Very happy with them and find them a good compromise between on road, off road and road noice. They're great in the rain too. TBH don't think you will go wrong with either the BFG or GG AT tyres.
  21. What sort of arrogance? There is nothing arrogant about what I said! The country got in a muddle through failure of the last labour government to save for a rainy day not arrogance! And they were a 'centre-left' government. Consequently just in-case you forgot 'I'm afraid there is no money'. What effect would Corbyn's extreme left manifesto have on the economy..Go figure! (IMHO cos I aint that arrogant as to profess otherwise!) Corbyn, MacDonnell (the gullible sheep who vote for him) and their lefty un-costed policies would bring about the bankruptcy of the country. This 'them and us' poor vs rich socialist bullshit is becoming tedious. But I do agree with one thing Eggs...Option B...I don't really know either.
  22. Yep agreed, the Clearviews are pricey, also supposedly not a nice company to deal with! You can pick them up at a fair discount if you shop around (Exeter Stove & Chimneys are keen). Can you actually damp the burn down on a Burley, have always found them difficult to control (DEFRA Clean Air Act issue no doubt!!) Craig
