  1. You don't want to run it tight, as it will get tighter as it warms up. A 250 only has one bar nut, but you should be able to twang the chain and see about half the drive link. Did they replace both the clutch and the drive sprocket ?.
  2. You might get a few more residents if you go old school scythe and black gown.
  3. Being a graveyard expect stone and things being crooked, what about a hover mower for the more tight areas.
  4. Pretty much, bitumen isn't breathable. It's like shed felt minus the gravel. Vapour barrier is usually white and has tiny holes, like a miniature string vest.
  5. I'm sure digital disappointment is just as dissatisfying as paper porn disappointment. Was discussing this the other week, online price for a MS261 Vs dealer.
  6. Rumour has it from my dealer that Stihl aren't doing paper catalogues anymore.
  7. Is this the point where you realise it's a Thai lady boy?
  8. Those man traps have been illegal since 1827, with the exception of Katie Price. But even I wouldn't subject anyone to the inhumane punishment of her, I'd bring back hanging before that!.
  9. Air travel releases very fine particles into the Jetstream, which causes cloud formation etc. You could surmise old air travel was much lower, pre air pressurisation so didn't cause problems with weather.
  10. Being Drax, would that be from the literal coal field it was built on. Maybe we call it zero carbon miles coal ?. I still can't understand in this emissions bs, how the Germans & Greece can burn lignite. Yet we can't burn coal.
  11. Yeap, vapour barriers only really stop the water. Slows it down but maybe get a roofer to have a look and make a few suggestions, cheap to fit a few vents and a day's work for them 🙂
  12. Having watched a lot of videos. Tightly fitted between, preferably using spacers behind to prevent movement. The best one I saw used gappo tape to seal the joints, then a further layer of thinner insulation 90 degrees opposite. Obviously ventilation is a consideration afterwards tho, not a builder but the moisture needs venting somehow.
  13. I'd watch a few Robin Clevett videos on YouTube. That and skill builder, gives a good idea of the principle. Insulation isn't bad, just needs doing properly. Personally I'd start with increasing the floor insulation if you've got enough headspace.
  14. Well the pistol is only going to happen in northern Ireland or if you're a vet wanting a single shot under section 5 if memory serves. Plus it's reasonable force, whilst a grey area it didn't go to well for the farmer about twenty years ago.
  15. Generally speaking yes and helps to be in the employ of the crown. That being said even soldiers and police have been subject to manslaughter/murder charges. One reason the met had loads of firearms officers resigning recently as they have no legal backup.
  16. Doesn't really work like that in the UK I'm afraid as it's not lawful use is it and would probably be argued in front of m'lord that its premeditated.
  17. Even threatening looks and hurty words and fee fees these days!.
  18. Limited quantities, so kids playgrounds only ?
  19. Give it a couple of years for Sharia law and it'll be fine 🙂, woodchipping will seen as the compassionate thing.
  20. Presuming he's on red, I'm not sure about the legality of adding more dye. Companies were buying white and adding their own to stop employee thefts.
