  1. The Woodland Mills looks pretty good in the video. Hmmm
  2. The graphics chip on two of them. Not sure on the diagnosis of the most recent one?.... they just run so hot when using Photoshop, Final Cut, etc and I believe that's what melts them. Search "macbookpro graphic chip problem" on google and you'll find a few rants! I've used Apple since the year blob and they are great computers, way better than PC for alsorts of reasons.... my first Mac laptop (Pismo) lasted 12 years. The last one lasted just two. I've given up and just use an ipad now. Less heat...Not melted, yet! Unfortunately Apple service has gone way downhill as well, or at least, not what it used to be (in my experience). Cheers
  3. I had one and it melted. My friend had one, it melted. I have a friend who is the manager at an Apple store, his melted. They melt.... you pays your money; they melt. Fast & great computers.... until they melt.
  4. Have you considered turning it into compost? Cheers
  5. Good man, looks great and I bet the insects and bugs love it, and also a good place to stop for lunch...birds & bats, etc.
  6. Are you sure he was was from the council?
  7. For planning purposes I believe an appointment has to be made in advance, otherwise it's trespassing. Councils do not operate above the law (although they often like to think they do).
  8. I suggest let them have a look around but request that ANY questions be put in writing (for the record). Offer a cup of tea, be friendly.
  9. Heavy duty rubble sacks that aren't heavy duty.
  10. That's democracy for you. You are entitled to your opinion (which I respect) and I'm entitled to disagree with you (which I do). Have a nice day
  11. I'm so, so sorry to be reading this. Wish the clock could be wound back, again. Very good advice with.... "make the most of your time with the ones you love while you can." x
  12. Yep, sent in my remarks on this earlier. Makes me feel really angry that this is even being discussed/ considered. Puts my mind to riot. aaaaargh!! Wish they'd leave ordinary good people alone to get on with their good everyday lives, like, ummm, errr, shopping at Tesco, and ummm, hmmm poisoning weeds with Roundup, and buying one chicken getting two free, etc, etc.... (and in here lies the problem). For things to really change we all need to stop buying into the corporate crap.
  13. Will be great to hear your thoughts on the strimmer. How many batteries and much did your battery pack cost, if you don't mind my asking? cheers, Steve
  14. looks amazing. cheers for sharing, steve
  15. As I mentioned above "I think the rate they offer is designed to go towards costs rather than cover the whole amount. Well, I guess???" I think the topping up is left for us to sort out.... but we're not exactly minted right now, just happily working our asses off.
  16. hmmm, Would you like some haylage if you worked a full day?.... got lots of wrapped haylage bales.
  17. Glastir is the Welsh version of Forestry Commission grants for looking after/ managing land/woodland. It's mostly for environmental/ nature purposes, eg putting up bat boxes, bird boxes, protecting woodland from cows, etc and lots of other things. I think the rate they offer is designed to go towards costs rather than cover the whole amount. Well, I guess??? It's EU money, and it's complicated! cheers, Steve
  18. i wonder, is he or she on Arbtalk?!
  19. Great handle grip precision control technique as well
  20. haha! Love that, made me giggle.
  21. yay!! I wasnt expecting that! ....I'll try to find out how long a day lasts at Glastir. cheers, steve
  22. thanks, learnt something there so don't mind going slightly off thread at all. cheers, steve
  23. Okay, so Glastir Advanced have offered to pay for some of our trees to have surgery (I think it's about 10 medium sized oaks that need a haircut/ and to be made safe). Glastir will pay £97 for one day (they only offered for a single day). Anyone interested in that paltry sum? (Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire).... if not then we'll have to consider rejecting their offer and leave the trees as they are, which would be a shame. cheers, Steve
  24. I imagine it could be but they tend to stick some plasticky crap veneer on top, and who would want the job of peeling that off? Cheers, Steve
  25. I forgot my age and had to use a calculator. Maths has not got any better with age! 42 and feel great most days.... now working outdoors away from too much computer. It is invigorating in so many ways. Love it
