  1. I found one on a night shift. A bit of wire glinted in my headtorch. Good job as it was about to get chipped
  2. I used to play in a rock band using my Polymethyl methacrylate 5 string bass Looks good with lights behind it
  3. Overkill springs to mind
  4. Clever idea and do able by anyone who knows where wickes is lol. I like the look of some of the power line pickups with doors in the side of the load bed cover
  5. Look good thanks for posting
  6. Hide yours and tell binmen it's been robbed, they might sort you one or phone council tell them it's been robbed and you may get one / could buy one off them. It was £30 a few years ago
  7. All washed down with 2litres of tea (equiv' of 8 cups with just less than 1 sugar per cup) also up to 2litres of water depending on how the day goes
  8. That is unless you get a prima donna who gets his tickets and thinks he's to good to ground
  9. Occasionally breakfast of 4 weetabix Lunch will be sarnies. (Ham, cheese lettuce and colesaw) cheese and onion ridge crisps, choccy bar, apple. Sometimes supplemented with (dependant on how long ago payday was) froob yoghurt, choccy miniroll, banana, pepperami pork pie.
  10. I'm here. Nothing useful to say on any threads at the moment.
  11. I think we all agree it was hornbeam though
  12. Thanks for letting me know Wasn't my choice. I inherited it when the last climber left. I won't be climbing on it again.
  13. Not my shelf but an impressive want/shopping list My humble collection
  14. Beat me to it. A fire can smoulder in peat for years
  15. Gbudall
  16. My grandfather clock stopped working yesterday, so I took it the the local clock shop in hope it can be repaired. The old gent in there who insists he was Swiss, but had a heavy German accent asked "Vat sims to be ze problem?" So I let him know it used to go tick-tock tick-tock but now only goes tick-tick-tick. The old man seams confused, and rummages under the counter. After a few minutes he pulls out a large torch and come round to the grandfather clock. He turns on the torch and shines it in the clocks face. Then in a menacing voice says "Ve have vays of making you tock"
  17. I use 11mm which feeds well but kills hands after a few climbs. Next rope will be Yale imori which is 12mm or blue tongue which is 11.7mm
  18. That's another point about the generator lights - there is too much light
  19. Get battery powered and make sure they're charged. Nothing worse than turning off saws to talk then shouting over the generator. When we did some night shifts we had battery lights and it was ace, until another team with generator lights joined us
  20. Does it? Uk pays around 12billion to EU and gets about 4billion back in grants etc.
  21. 👍 underside of the left arm. I wasn't trained to put my arm over the bar&chain Therefore not an accident re my earlier post
  22. My apologies lol.
  23. Disagree. There's no such thing as an accident. It's either A, someone doing something they haven't been trained to do. B, someone doing something NOT in accordance with training. C, not paying attention
  24. Regards this proposed charge. How can the take an estimate of the black market of drug deals and prostitution to add to the GDP of a country? Let's estimate it at £loads£ so they pay more
