  3. Happy Birthday Paul, regards to all the family, am sure you are having a good night

  5. So glad we got this post nailed
  6. Get well soon Sean, always sorry to hear about things like this.
  7. Now you're talking I can recognise that muddy finish Dragged a Countax 2050 out of a stable at one estate, two flat tyres, flat battery. Pressure washed off last seasons grass and mud, freed off the rear roller, luckily will be some weeks before I am mowing that place as lawns are waterlogged.
  8. Just delivered breakfast in bed, still can't understand with 5 daughters why it's my job ah well...
  9. I have looked after several Koi setups over time in different places, all run triple filter sustems, waterfalls and at the first one I installed "air bricks" to aid oxygenation.
  10. I am totally amazed at the number of ride on mowers in Devon and there condition! Fair play to you Gardenkit, job well done!
  11. The one I am working on is called a "Plantation" as it was 1500 Scots Pine planted some yrs ago, maybe you could go with this if "Woodland" is not an option?
  12. Will do, going to take a few days to clear round it as the crown has crashed down on top of a coppice, right mess.
  13. Happy Birthday
  14. Will check diameter next tuesday Yes 8" or 12" would be ok thanks, got a 3 ton digger to help Location Crawley
  15. I have to extract this Beech trunk as its blocking a drainage ditch in the wood causing flooding. You can see the top on the floor under the leaning Conifer in the 1st Pic After I remove all the branches, I need to cut the trunk to remove it as it is over waterlogged ground, 2nd Pic My question is guys n gals, what size should I cut the trunk into as it will possibly go to a saw mill. Cheers S.G.
  16. Congratulations to you both, now the fun begins! He says father of 5 grandfather of two.
  17. Which Magazine did a Memory Foam Mattresss test July 2014 Page 63. "Tempur Original 21" did come out as the "Don't buy" sadly, surprised me! We have an Orothopedic mattress and were looking to update, ended up with a foam topper (not memory foam) from Lidl last week £30, works a treat, only thing is its warmer.
  18. I confiscated this from a customer as his gardner was using it for logs, amazing spares still available. It's a Mac 110 with chain brake!
  19. Yes search on here for "Chuck and Duck" timbercutterdartmoor posted this link I was on about [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pt0WcptBaJI]Wood chipper! - YouTube[/ame]
  20. Have a look on youtube for "drum" chippers, theres one vid with a Mexican gang running up and throwing stuff in very scary
  21. I must say your customers keep there machines in excellant contition, plus of course your wash n polishing. Most of the ones I see lok a bit like the Hayter on the end.
  22. And there's me worried about getting a new belt on a Countax 20/50 !!!!!!
  23. Been there, done that, it blew away as well, well not "away" exactly
  24. I used to run my banana Transit on 10% vedge oil, ran a lot smoother and quieter, quicker through the gears as well. To run it 100% you need to run the vedge oil through an oil cooler connected to the heater circuit to warm it up! Chip shop oil needs to be run through a filter system then acids added that have been taken away by the frying.
