  1. Sorry for derail, back on topic I'm about to re spray mine: grit blast and prime (pylon primer) £150 then take to 'proper' sprayer for topcoat £200. Sound reasonable?
  2. Meant to say tw was 8 yrs newer n the entec outdid it may problem! But it's missing a lot of paint!
  3. Is it a chippit 35? That's what I have, we had a little head to head with a tw 150
  4. Found wild strawberry with ripe berries yesterday, didn't hav camera though, mental!
  5. Thought it was only if you'd bin locked up or suspended sentence at the very least ( and not even an air rifle )
  6. Right to bear arms? NO THANKS
  7. Daughters boyfriend just told me they've started using them on turbine blade inspection on wind farms ( he does industrial rope access )

  14. They look good, what sort of money would they be?
  15. Remember some self made millionaire saying one of the most important things in a successful business is employing people who are better at the job than you,so you're on a winner😀. Good job by the way
  16. They do always seem to be overpriced, usually accompanied by "very rare" label, which they're not really
  17. Oh yeah, definitely, well over in fact😈
  18. Course ya can!😀
  19. Selling by the m3 is the fairest and most honest way of selling logs, logs ARE covered by weights and measures but only if you sell by weight and you don't have either weigh bridge ticket or scales that are tested, if you sell by m3 you should state LOOSE M3 and you're covered!
  20. Ace! Wanna Stuart a petition?😀
  21. I'm sorry to hear your woes and genuinely shocked that the insurance company have taken that stance, surely all our tools/vehicles are more at risk when we're not using them and are getting on with the other aspects of our lives?😤 basterds!
  22. I've owned two in the past. The first was a mk2 tipper, it was a petrol with a Luton body from the NRA, converted to 4x4 by Newton Abbot motors. I put a d plate di in it and a tipper, had it 5 yrs and it never broke down, pulled like a train (it was nick named the Dogs Bollox by mates and 13yrs later I still regret selling it. The next was a '94 county lwb van ex national grid, totally different beast but still very good, main fault on these: no difflock! Ford never made a 4x4 transit, they were designed by Eric May who bought the 'county' badge (and was a county tractor engineer previously) and were later called Countytrac when bought out by Michael Allen Group in Ashford Kent (along with Eric) who designed the crappy all wheel drive ones for Ford so (sadly) stopped doing their own. Reynolds Boughton did a few as well.
