Looking for supplier of new pick up tipper, not one to convert, but a new ready to use drive away truck. Recommendations welcome.

Interested to know if you have made your own log decks and pictures of them to show how you made it.

So, according to scientist Dr Denise Robertson, from the University of Surrey, if you cook and cool pasta down then your body will treat it much more like fibre, creating a smaller glucose peak and helping feed the good bacteria that reside down in your gut. You will also absorb fewer calories, making this a win-win situation.

Seen hundreds this year, started off with a nest in a bird box and for ages now they have been busy amongst the apple trees.

Anyone breaking a 341 or 361 and willing to part with a flywheel. Been quoted high prices for a new one, doesn't seem justified.

For an alternative diet based on plants check out the richroll podcasts. Read the book too 'finding ultra' It throws out lots of interesting facts that you can experiment with yourself. Don't dismiss it, read it and see what benefit it can be to you. Have lost 3 & half stone in 6 months.Dont feel hungry,recover from activity much better. It changed my life.

Who runs cb radio in their trucks. I hear that if the mobile network fails cb will always work !

Green tea. Takes a bit to get a taste for it but when you do it's very refreshing and very good for you.

What's the best way of removing the wooden inserts in hi-lift wedges ?

Stood up under a bit of unfinished metal cladding !

[attach]161269[/attach] After waiting far too long in a&e blood clots formed in the swelling requiring a procedure to remove the clots , over 30 injections in the scalp to numb the area and many stitches.

And if you store timber or an arb vehicle could that be grouped together with agricultural vehicles ?

Thanks for that. I'll give them a call in the morning.

Im thinking of erecting a steel framed barn for storage etc. I know that this will need planning permission but will the planning officer deem that the building should be subject to business rates or is that nothing to do with him ? It may be that we use it for keeping the vehicles in or other items. We live in our house which is part of the plot of land of several acres. How is this all determined and if so what are the cost implications for the use of such a building,in other words is it worth it ?

I have a valmet 665 tractor and need to replace the flywheel. Have tried Jas Wilsons but they are struggling. Does anyone know who might be able to supply this or know if the part is used in other makes of tractors ?

Scientists have discovered that about one in thirteen people have flexible ape-like feet. A team studied the feet of 398 visitors to the Boston Museum of Science. The results show differences in foot bone structure similar to those seen in fossils of a member of the human lineage from two million years ago. It is hoped the research, published in the American Journal of Physical Anthropology, will establish how that creature moved. Apes like the chimpanzee spend a lot of their time in trees, so their flexible feet are essential to grip branches and allow them to move around quickly - but how most of us ended up with more rigid feet remains unclear. Jeremy DeSilva from Boston University and a colleague asked the museum visitors to walk barefoot and observed how they walked by using a mechanised carpet that was able to analyse several components of the foot. Floppy foot Most of us have very rigid feet, helpful for stability, with stiff ligaments holding the bones in the foot together. When primates lift their heels off the ground, however, they have a floppy foot with nothing holding their bones together. This is known as a midtarsal break and is similar to what the Boston team identified in some of their participants. This makes the middle part of the foot bend more easily as the subject pushes off to propel themselves on to their next step. Dr DeSilva told BBC News how we might be able to observe whether we have this flexibility: "The best way to see this is if you're walking on the beach and leaving footprints, the middle portion of your footprint would have a big ridge that might show your foot is actually folding in that area." Here A. sediba is compared with a modern human (L) and a chimp ® Another way, he added, was to set up a video camera and record yourself walking, to observe the bones responsible for this folding motion. Most with this flexibility did not realise they had it and there was no observable difference in the speed of their stride. In addition, Dr DeSilva found that people with a flexible fold in their feet also roll to the inside of their foot as they walk. The bone structure of a two-million-year old fossil human relative, Australopithecus sediba, suggests it also had this mobility. "We are using variation in humans today as a model for understanding what this human creature two million years ago was doing," added Prof De Silva. Tracy Kivell, a palaeoanthropologist from the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, said: "The research has implications for how we interpret the fossil record and the evolution of these features. "It's good to understand the normal variation among humans before we go figure out what it means in the fossil record," Dr Kivell told BBC News.

Anyone use a stand alone winch unit. Seen some with 300 m of cable and thought they would be useful. Would like to know if they are used for forestry.

Im looking to purchase an alpine tractor something similar to a carraro tigrone 5500 , 50 hp range. Does anyone know of any dealers in the yorks/humber region/ lincs region ?

I have built a faraday cage with spare radio,batteries and other electronic equipment.

Does anyone use one of these or other preferred micro chippers for those jobs too small for bigger chippers ?
