  1. Bet they do the horses every week
  2. There ya go Felix! ....not an ipad, but it has got flash! (light).
  3. Reaching for the Brandy, cant handle it. Then i need to wipe some boiled linseed oil over some shelving for the greenhouse. *yawn*
  4. Think you'll find Steve is booking his all expenses (paid by us) 1st class flight to Hawaii, for a month or so....
  5. *tumbleweed rolls by.....*
  6. Maybe you'll win an ipad?....
  7. Oh well, you get to join the ipad crowd
  8. Just had a thought.... anyone done John o groats to lands end as a two legged race before? (not that i'm volunteering for that!)
  9. Well done for running the raffle to Mr Steve, & also well done (and good luck) to everyone that bought tickets. Looks like it's going to be a great total raised
  10. Looks like a great bit of kit.
  11. Trouble is i'm wanting to carry extra soil around, even 5 ditching buckets worth would make a huge time save.
  12. Darn, hadn't thought of it like that. hmmm, is this a plan doomed to failure? Any hydraulic ram technicians on the forum?....
  13. Must be quite a bit - it will lift at least half of the digger weight into the air to get the tracks off the ground.
  14. I've made this full size cardboard template to get dimensions. The dozer blade is positioned about half way, with the transport box at ground level. I think I've set the height of the transport box so that with the dozer blade at its highest position without interference with the cab overhang/ swing....but gonna double check this with a proper cutout. The welly boot is for getting an idea of scale.
  15. Unfortunately not, a link box would be perfect but havent found anything local. Gonna bodge something for now!
  16. With those blacked out windows it looks like it's got loads of outer-space.
  17. That's a stunning scenery to be working in - beats shelf stacking in a supermarket.
  18. Newgale pebble beach defence has been demolished by the sea, it's been thrown over the entire road (now completely closed). Here at Haverfordwest the howling strong wind & driving rain has been coming in waves, odd because it's been nice & calm & sunny in between.... quite a surreal weather pattern from anything I've experienced before in the UK. The weather is not only weird, it's also quite worrying for where we may be heading in the future. But climate change isn't happening, right???

  19. No pain at all, and my size 9 hiking trainers are feeling tight, so if anything i think my feet maybe closer to 9½. hmmm, maybe i should get them measured in Clarks.
  20. My feet usually fit size 9 or sometimes a 9½ but I tried on umpteen pairs of Dunlop Purofort welly boots this morning and it seems my feet have shrunk to size 7. Anyone else got shrinking feet?
  21. Are you questioning my joinery skills? ....good point!
  22. Yeah!... I'm now thinking of knocking a template box up out of some pallet wood. If it's strong enough.... job done!
  23. That's another great idea!... and loving the simplicity of it. do you have any photos of your linkbox on the digger?
