  1. Does make me wonder how another company can supply a similar product at a cheaper price and do free delivery!?😡
  2. Thx guys some good advice there, it's been up 2yrs so hoping it's weathered enough. Will degrease and steam clean it first👍 Craig
  3. Alec Many thanks, great advice as usual! That looks like just the ticket, and free delivery too👍 Craig
  4. Moving on from my last post.....Has anyone had experience of painting over galvanised steel? I have some estate fencing that has been galved (about 2yrs ago so well weathered) and needs to be painted black. Any recommendations of products and preparation greatly appreciated. Cheers CP
  5. I have just been quoted £58 for delivery on a single 5L tin of paint (to paint over galvanised steel), reason 'because its a hazardous product'! Seems excerionally steep to me:confused1: Are couriers charging that sort of money on a can of paint or is someone trying it on? Cheers Craig
  6. Well said Sir!👍
  7. Well said Kev and much more eloquent that what I was about to write. You really ought to have some therapy chum! Despicable comment, get back under your rock!
  8. Thanks for the advice, I went with the Echo PB500 backpack blower and will look at the vac option at a later date.
  9. IMHO any report/investigation or article that includes input from LACS is discredited by association! Bunch of Cnuts! With reference to the OP question, surely if the government decide that a cull will take place, the landowner will have no power to stop persons who are entering property to carry out that policy? Anyway its Wed morning and I'm off hunting!
  10. Just rejuvenating this post. Im still looking for a blower, the vac might be handy too. Many thanks for the replies. I think most of the recommends will be overkill. Any advice or reviews on the smaller hand held blower/vacs? Anyone got a Stihl BG 86 C blower or Echo ES250ES Petrol Blower/Vac? Thx in advance
  11. Bit of a broad sweeping statement! There are plenty of 2year and older dogs that come good in later life. Many trainers say don't even start until 12-18 months, obviously case by case basis. Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk
  12. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.....but not your own facts!! Ha ha oh and the earth is flat....🤡
  13. What part don't you believe mate. The Rotherham enquiry report estimates 1400 children were sexually abused by a British/Pakistani gang. Do some research.... how much evidence do you need?
  14. I can't help thinking Blair will have a similar effect as Obama and actually drive more people to support Brexit. Grade 1 Cnut! Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk
  15. I have just taken a roll top off of a 2013 Double Cab Hilux - open to sensible offers? Got me thinking though, I regularly leave 2 gun dogs in the back of my truckman in an unlocked cage! Think I'll buy a decent lockable transit box! What sort of scum steal clothing and a kids jacket ffs?
  16. All the best mate! Hope you are on the road to full recovery!!
  17. Ha ha the classic 'racist' and 'fascist' jibes for anyone with anything other than your naive utopian view! Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk
  18. Wrong! Radical Islam is a threat to European security not just IS. If you think an open door policy to Islamic migrants is the way ahead you are a fool! As it is not to any other migrants I hastily add. He didn't include KSA or UAE in his temporary ban because they share intelligence. You need to wake up and smell the coffee chum!
  19. If you can't take a bit of sh*t mate, you have the wrong hobby, I mean job!😉😜 Seriously though, it's an emotive subject and unfortunately the Bobby on the street takes the flack for managerial/governmental decisions.
  20. Because right now Saudi are fighting their own was against IS, and sharing their intelligence with the US, who share it with UK. Same with UAE. If we don't buy Saudi oil where do we get it? They possess 18% of the worlds proven oil reserves and are the big cheese in OPEC, who control collectively 80% of oil reserves (proven). So until we break our addiction to oil and its derivatives we are kind of f**ked!
  21. Men like those in this video are being allowed to enter Europe with no checks and controls on their past. And liberal do-gooders bitching and whining when governments want to take DNA and fingerprints! 'The bad guys are a tiny minority'......My ar5e they are! https://www.nytimes.com/video/world/asia/100000004108808/the-killing-of-farkhunda.html
  22. I find your post baffling too. No one has said that all muslims want us all dead. But surely it is prudent to vet those that are being allowed to enter our countries? It's about risk mitigation. So 'few and far between' is acceptable? If it was your family members killed or maimed by these animals you may think differently. FFS Trump isn't banning muslims! Stop listening to the fake liberal news and do some research. Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk
  23. As I said, allow time to put in place better screening processes/mitigations and engage with countries of origin/try and build relationships (share intelligence )(not gonna be possible with all actors). Any government has a primary duty of care to protect its people. Think HSSE in the corporate world. Merkel et al would be on a charge of corporate manslaughter for such recklessness.

  24. I have worked and lived in the Gulf extensively for the last 15 years within the security industry, my opinion is based on experience and exposure to the culture of the region, not some misconceived utopian idealism/ignorance. I can assure you that in my experience, the majority of my muslim friends and colleagues cannot believe, or understand, our current policies concerning migration. Reap what you sow! I'm expecting the racist tag next ha ha. Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk
  25. No! Think of it as a moratorium. It's a temporary ban until a better screening process has been put in place, exactly what that stupid naive Merkel and her liberal chums should have done instead of opening the gates to all and sundry. We will suffer for that recklessness for a long time to come. Note that he hasn't banned those Islamic countries that share security intelligence such as KSA and UAE, even though people from those countries have historically committed terrorist acts in and against USA.
