  8. Get a husky 560xp , it's superb , dunno about the 201t though I'm still on a 200t . TS
  9. Both vehicles are pretty good in the mechanical side of things , but up here in Scotland they just fall to bits with rust . Bodywork , brake and fuel pipes , tanks all prone to severe corrosion . Much better down South ( not so much road salt and rain ) TS

  13. Buy new and look after it , always keep your fuel fresh , that's my advise . A secondhand pro saw is an option , if you know it's history . TS

  16. I run an FS500 , the shredder blade is the one you want . Also agree with Charlieh , I find the Stihl blades are better than the Oregons . Get yourself a set of those shin gaurds , I got whacked by some flying bit of ?? Last summer , had a lump on my shin like an egg . TS
  17. Yip , me too 100% agree . Don't go there . Do yourself a favour and buy new . TS

  19. Hi Paul , I'm in Meikleour , nearly next door mate !! Been down living at my inlaws in Glasgow for the last 6 weeks , since I had an operation , another few weeks on crutches and I'll be back behind the hedge . TS:
  20. I'm a 36" waist in CS trousers and large fits me no problem with me wooly longs underneath , miles tougher than the Hi Flex's I used to wear , looking back I recon I got them roughly 6 months ago and have worn them most days since and the seem to be doing really well . TS
  21. I wear stretch air myself , but left them down in Glasgow by mistake a few months back and needed trousers in a hurry , went out and bought a pair of SIP freedom type C and I love them not to expensive either . TS
