  1. Whether it's right or wrong is another debate, but a significant proportion of society is judgemental. I would argue that having tattoos anywhere you can't cover up is perhaps a little short sighted, especially if you are in any kind of service industry. Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk

    Trident

    I wonder if Ukraine would agree that it's "an imaginary threat". Unfortunately many of the countries of this world who have nuclear weapons are not led by nice people; Russia, China, N Korea, Pakistan etc. Not sure it would make sense to lose our deterrent, the world (especially M.E) is probably as unstable today than it has been since WW2.
  3. Thx Steve, be interesting to see how it compares to my 3L Hilux, both in performance and ride, I'm sure the coils must make a huge difference when the backs empty. Craig
  4. How you getting on with the NP300 Steve? Has the 2.3 lump got plenty of grunt? I'm gonna test drive it against the new Hilux. I like the idea of coils over leafs mind. Cdo

    Pain

    I think that's a take on the 7 lower back stretches.. http://theheartysoul.com/stretching-exercises-for-lower-back-pain/ My Mrs swears by then.
  6. Not sure if canker but cut out any wood/bark and treat with "heal and seal". Be careful that you consider bio security so as not to transfer anything to other trees, disinfect your knife and ideally burn clipping. I have a tree that is rotted through 50% of the main trunk and it's hanging in there thx to heal and seal! Cdo
  7. It got progressively worse, towards end would trigger the usual lights and stick in 2-3rd, even after going through deep puddles on a wet day.
  8. I covered it will grease, had same issue whenever I went through water.
  9. Assume you are suffering the dreaded "3 amigos" warning lights and the auto box going into limp home made??
  10. Nice setup! What will the loader lift?
  11. The front steer versions pivot on the axle only, so if you drop a wheel on a slope they won't pitch you over. Certainly on the AGT.
  12. I have the Fleming hydraulic one on AGT850, only issue is getting the link arms to lift it high enough to tip and also go low enough to scoop.
  13. I went for a Hall Engineering 2.25 tonne dump trailer, well suited and comes standard with flotation tyres. Can recommend, well made- British engineering!!
  14. What size trailer are you pulling TB?
  15. It will lift 1.2tonne on the linkage? If so that is hoofing! My AGT850 will do about 600kg and the wheels are off the ground. Ability to lift a bulk bag of sand etc would be a bonus. Cdo.
  16. Tunein Radio App, listen to all uk radio anywhere there is internet.
  17. Ha yeah I was thinking exactly the same mate, chop in for a new old model and hang in until we ain't in the EU anymore!!- sounds like a fine reason to leave to me!! 👍😀
  18. I spoke with a rep at Toyota, supposedly the new Hilux will not be offered with the big diesel engine because of EU emissions! Looks like I'll be hanging on to the 3.0L for a while longer..
  19. Have gone for the RSL manual jobbie, thx for the advice. Craig
  20. Thx for the steer Rowan. Wilco!
  21. Not for arb, for general landscaping. Are the benefits of a hydraulic version worth the extra wonga? Thx guys
  22. I want to fit a manual thumb to my Hitachi ZX30u. I'm thinking either RSL or Digbits? Any recommendations or reviews? Cheers Craig
  23. Ha ha ha WTF???
  24. Yep that's the way to go, Lifeproof Fre is a great case, pretty much bomb proof, waterproof to 2m also. Not cheap but saved my iPhone numerous times.
  25. That is absolutely fantastic! Very talented.
