Bear in mind also that rabbits are especially partial to ash and might make a bit more effort for them!

Department of agriculture over here done some work on this 20 odd years ago, one of the sites was just on the edge of the Glens and I be past it occasionally. Read a bit of info on the study when I was weighing up the options for my own planting I'll try and find a link and post it up.

Might appeal to a woman whereas logic and practicality would have no place at all.

Aye deed, cheeks like a baboons arse!

I imagine it would put the counter-balancing on a 360 haywire, both in the potential reach and the weight of the dipper itself bearing in mind that an extending dipper is a lot heavier than just a long stick. When the Sitemasters came out some guys took the 4in1 buckets off them to put on one pieces for chips, sand, whatever, and the things were unusable such was the weight different between the extender and the standard or even long stick on the back. Even a 2wd Sitemaster could be a handful with the extending dipper and the 4in1 still on it. There's always a price to pay somewhere!

Are you using the term in the loose sense as in the growing of trees being pitched to farmers, or something a bit more specific?

Indeed it is, twathrie brave tight boys with a decent chainsaw, sawhorse, and an X27 could produce a lot of blocks out of that in a bit of a day!

Changed a bit since last July!

Considerably more indeed as the "stove installer" will generally bring in a plumber to do that side of it, ad the plumbers costs to the overall bill, and then ad on a bit more to the plumbers bill for himself just because that's the way things are done!

Superb, so glad that I put my cynical view of "performance figures" aside for once.

You see, they like each other. Would be such a shame to separate them!

This is the post with your answer. A great saw at a terrific price, if it wasn't for the usual grief of carriage charges over here I'd have one at that price myself, and I don't even really need it!

We had a wrap around back boiler to remove, widen the firebreast, fit a new lintel, take an air supply for the stove through the firebreast and through an outside wall, then plaster and re-instate the whole thing. I done a fair bit of the donkey work with the kango but labour for everything else including plumbing out the back boiler was £440. Can't remember parts prices exactly as the missus paid it but for everything, even including the hardwall, was slightly less than £100. We had been given ridiculous quotes as well, frequently the lining of the chimney was mentioned as a factor. In the end we fitted the stove first to see how it would work with the standard chimney knowing that a flexible liner could be fitted retrospectively if required. We're in our second winter with it now and no hitches so far whatsoever but even at that a flexible flue liner kit was being quoted at around £200 with all necessary fittings so still wouldn't have taken the price up to the levels we were being quoted for a complete install.

Good advice.

Any sign at all of frost on a golf course and trolleys are barred immediately. Even pulling a trolley over frosted grass will leave yellow lines that'll persist for weeks in mild weather, longer if it's cold. That's the fairways, greens are completely out of bounds!

Well considering that it's there to help warm her ass as much as yours I think it'd be in order this particular time to suggest that she winds it in a bit!

Good man, that's an excellent sentiment.

I've never met a couple who had the same definition of crap!

That's lovely, it really is. How could you not stand and look up in to that for a couple of minutes and feel so much better for it!

Keep it, you'll regret selling it. If you bought it new, it'll always be new to you. Even you drain the petrol and set it up on a shelf for now some day there'll be a job for it and you'll have it there. Even you get a ton for it selling it, in a few weeks the money will be gobbled up by modern life whereas the other way you'll always have a spare saw sitting, a saw that you know and can depend on. Give it some thought at least.

My son is a green keeper, what we refer to as side shoots or tillering they refer to as "lateral growth" and scarify specifically to remove it. In the second year of his FDsc course there was a guy in to the college one day stressing that if they wanted to earn big money they'd either have to be world class at their job or go private and charge a shed load of money for maintaining peoples lawns. Although it was of no interest to him I think most of his fellow students fancied the second option!

I think you'd find that a huge improvement on what you have now without going completely OTT on weight, power, or money!

My "little" saw is a Dolmar 109 which I've owned from new. It's 43cc, as handy as you like and will pull a 15in bar through anything quite comfortably. I'm sure there's a modern equivalent in both Dolmar and Makita. Something around that size sounds like all you need.

Chainsaw plating must be softer then, I actually tried to damage a plated cylinder that I was sending away for replating anyway and gave up after about half an hour. I hadn't even smoothed off the cross-hatching from the factory!!!! I also told him to check first that the deposits were ON TOP of the plating and that if the damage was in to the plating then the cylinder was scrap.

The point is, he's more likely to have a bit of wet and dry lying about than acid or a flexy hone, and if not it'll be cheaper and easier got!!!!!
