  1. What model saw is it ?
  2. It's mayonnaise, are you putting olive oil in the fuel mix ?
  3. They look versatile but are definitely not cheap. Crewcab Kipper sounds like a fun vehicle, bit fishy though.
  4. Wicker man.
  5. I wish this was closer I would like to join the queue for the privilege of cutting these down and removing. All you need is a chainsaw, they will deliver themselves apparently.

    Fake or not?

    Doesn't say it's a Stihl. "Craftop NT9200 / MS660. Chainsaw". Probably a bit misleading and dear for a copy but you have the choice of not buying.
  7. Everything is quicker nowadays. If you go in hospital for surgery they send you home same day when they used to keep you in all week. Microwaves cook your food in seconds instead of minutes and hours. I've enlisted for a 3 week brain surgery/rocket science course at the local education centre. You get a certificate but you have to supply your own tools. OP has not replied to the thread so he must have got a job and be too busy. Good luck with the search and stop with the negative vibes Moriarty.
  8. My Chinese 25cc says 25:1 mix but I ran it on 40:1 semi synth because it smoked too much and it has had Aspen 2 the last couple of times I've used it with no ill effects yet.
  9. Mine is a hatchet, axes are something big you need two hands to wield. I have a small hatchet specially sharpened up for carving but that hatchet is left not so sharp solely for splitting sticks for kindling.
  10. I made a hatchet handle of Beech because it was what I had handy and have been very happy with it. It is my favourite stick chopper. Calling your axe Goliath is just setting it up for a fall if you ask me

    Wages

    That's so they can make enough in 3 hours and get down the dole to sign on then into the pub for dinner time

    Wages

    I'd come out of retirement for that
  13. This is the one, get it copyrighted before someone steals it and makes a fortune
  14. Loving the look at the beginning setting the camera up Mets, you should patent that like Blue Steel in Zoolander.
  15. Can we call them basal shoots because I keep reading brussel sprouts.
  16. Usually grows best in the join between the concrete and the bottom of a wall Propagated best by bird crap and hard to pull out of the join. The leaves seem to kill everything growing under the tree when they fall as well.
  17. Berberis are nasty spiky shrubs as well.
  18. Like Jagger is not going to have moved on to something younger before the kid hits 5. He will have a new dad and a rich mum no worries.
  19. It works but you need to give it chance, no good going straight back to doing what caused the problem. Doctor told me to rest my arm for a couple of weeks after the elbow treatment.
  20. Place I used to get it charged £1.50 a bag. When I asked what size bag they said whatever you bring and I had some we used to cover pallets. You had to fill them yourself but they were true to their word and only charged the £1.50. I could only just lift it into the van.
  21. When a neighbour went to fetch a trailer tent it was 50mm hitch and would not fit on his 2" ball we had to swap it for a 50mm ball.
  22. It's not illegal but it is not classed as a secure solution. Get a plate with an eye that fastens on behind the ball or you can get one that clamps onto a swan neck.
  23. from me too.
  24. So if anybody's passing by ?
  25. Grouty in Porridge, he did play a good villain. 93 so he didn't do bad. Good clip of him and Fletcher on that page.
