  1. Did you change any filters, as it might have stirred up crud on what I'm assuming is a 20+ year old chipper. Was there a screen filter in the tank?.
  2. Micro plastic is the biggest sewage problem including digestate. They're looking at solutions, but even I know 1-2 micron filtering is impossible, incinerator is the only option.
  3. If you want the honest answer yes I do think it's a political/business lie, maybe more muddying the waters as it's become more a religion. As I've said numerous times pragmatic solutions that actually bring people along and make things profitable not less. Problem is a lot of the nutters, wax lyrical about long lists of things we have zero control over, yet fail to accept that maybe their 50yr obsession has maybe done the opposite as a country it's the cleanest in what 300 years!. I'll pick nitrate run off as an example, mainly its sewage discharge than farming. If I'm paying 300 a ton I ain't wasting it, hell even at 50 I want my return!. If you want to demand every house has 3 bird boxes, fine by me, but nutters shouting were burning don't help the cause. And I have said this many many times. Refill the Aral sea and then we can talk about Ed's more militant forcing us into the stone age ideals, I believe it's emptying in the 50/60s is the cause of most environmental problems!.
  4. At a minimum only concerning the UK. Regardless of the cause & effect arguments about a butterfly flapping it's wings elsewhere in the world. Preferably on my doorstep, we have done everything and much more and they still shout decline which even by your own admission was better in the 50/60s etc. You have to have a pragmatic solution and a common sense argument, as whatever they're telling us to do obviously isn't working and doubling down hasn't made it better either. For example, coal is dirty, so we scrubbed the exhaust, then it was better to use gas, so we use gas, technically we could have also made coaking coal but that's another discussion. You get the idea, just going off to the stone ages with you is not a solution as you need to make any change simple, cheaper and better. SD TV Vs HD not Edison lightbulb Vs sitting waiting for the the plague men to pick up your infected corpse.
  5. Because the simple arguement is I care about here, I don't want studies from elsewhere where I have ZERO influence. We as a country have done pretty much everything the environment types have asked, demanded and more, yet they still claim collapse even though in the 50/60s we harmed the environment a plenty and it was better for wildlife. So what more do you want and at what point do you go, oh f it's not improved by your own metrics!. Simple analogy I can stop my bath from overflowing by turning the tap off, should I be coming round yours and sit watching your bath fill ?.
  6. And the American subprime mortgages, banks giving mortgages then selling off the paperwork to anyone thinking it would earn a fortune and then banks going oh f we have a worthless piece of paper.
  7. With any tractor it's usually the better the devil you know and you also know how well it's been looked after. As has been said, by the time you've split the tractor and replaced whatever is needed, it'll need a jet washing and paint. Once it's running you can then decide to keep or flip it, personally used equipment once repaired is best kept until it's fit for the scrap.
  8. Whilst I hate the publication and most of its "writer's" with a passion, using their own links against them is somewhere between holding back a smile whilst throwing up a little.
  9. He can buy it domestically without the tariff, you're just digging a deeper hole of TDS. He knew there's a tariff, everyone new there was a tariff. Shipping isn't going to be 2200 dollars, ergo he's the fool and your just scrabbling around in the dirt trying to make another I hate trumpety trump stomping around the supermarket like a toddler.
  10. So if you're assuming he knew the costs, that makes him the .... A hole. When he knew full well it could be bought elsewhere without the tariff no doubt cheaper, wouldn't that be your flimsy argument?.
  11. It's at a point where even Diane would do a better job
  12. You obviously don't do any importing do you!. I do and everything requires paperwork, lots and lots of lovely paperwork which spells out everything. Including tariff/tarric codes and also the requirements to have their equivalent of an EORI number.
  13. Or for absolute hilarity
  14. So they want you to accept their viewpoint as a requirement for a discussion, think the high court disagreed with that line of thought process recently.
  15. I'm sure you can alternate it between that and the I shot jr t-shirt or go for a combo ?.
