I got stung by customs on my BDB Blinkin' theives.

Possibly justabout worth that for the value of the scrap steel? Though the cost of raising it would demolish any return...

Been looking at the specs of the boat again, its a bit sub-par.

Definitely something fishy about that one.

I'd love to see pics and description of your test rigs and methodology. Cheers!

I'm looking for chip for weed control in South Croydon - Shout if you're shredding near CR5. Cheers!

I am looking for chip - decent chip for weed control. Anyone deeding somewhere to dump in Coulsdon (between Croydon and Redhill) CR5 2HD - please call me! 07792 620051 Alternatively I have a 5x3 trailer and can come to you if you're not too far!

It's all well and good - shame mere mortals (like I) can't get one! Its almost small enough to go in a leg holster.

Talk to Gordon on TreeBuzz and buy a bulldog bone. That, a pantin and some 11mm or 11.7 is all you need. Failing that a runner. But the bone is better

I've got the same set in the older box. The box was rubbish, but the bits are great.

Bouncy bouncy!

I would not get in that cab - especially if there was a decline in the way...

Biscuit joints along the top and bottom - then drill and rod it.

Ever looked at your skin after a swim or bath? Your skin is better described as water resistant - but very clever because it is selective about what leaks out.

ARGH just seen "the thread" and "the other thread". Shame it came to a head - I'd have not posted the above if I'd known, but those threads got lost below some "arb" talk threads. Crazy!

PS Sorry to hear 'ol plogs has gone. Hope I didnt offend!

White on black is a great powersaver for OLED phones since they dont have to power most of the screen. Nice.

Part of the problem is the plethora of companies that phone up out of the blue despite telephone preference service, months even years after an accident however minor and try and persuade you that you lost some sleep one night and it must be attributable to some whiplash when that old lady openned her door too far in a parcark and dented your car, even though you werent in it at the time. The loss of sleep couldn't possibly be because of having young children, weather beating against the window, work/money/family concerns... They should not be able to get the claims info in the first place... Makes you think that the insurance companies are feeding them, to make claims, to make policies more expensive. That kind of underhandedness is too far fetched isnt it? I was hounded for years by these urchins after making a claim that another car came round a bend, skidded on the verge and piled into the side of my _stationary_ van, bounced off and mangled my boat trailer (it was following me). I was parked up on the other verge because I had my eyes open and saw the lad coming... Sigh. How I could get whiplash in a large stationary vehicle from a small vehicle making a glancing impact along the side and bouncing off... beats me, but they all wanted me to claim! That was nearly as annoying as the other parties insurance claiming that I was 50% to blame - not sure how a static object can be to blame for the impact - too much gravitational pull? They relented the day before the court case - of course the real reason was that we both had the same underwriter and they wanted to claw back two excesses and my no-claims bonus... evil I tell you.

Hi Steve - don't know if it'd be possible, but a Mendiplogs translator would help us mere humans. Call it the "Pogslator" if like.

Irony - you might wish your rope isn't too strong sometimes....

My old man was a pilot and did a fair amount of "flight deck management" training. In studying many past air disasters and near misses(!) the common theme was "a catalogue of minor errors and mis-communication". Catastrophic hardware failure was statistically low. I suspect it is the same in most walks of life and endeavour - wherever fallible/lazy/fatigued/distracted human beings operate...

No you can have a telly. You can have an antenna. You can have them connected... You can have the telly tuned in even... You still only need the license if you _Watch OR Record_ live streamed signals. This applies to internet streams just as much as over the air streams, ie You can have a computer You can have a computer linked to the internet You can have a web browser with bookmarks to iplayer... You can even use BBC iPlayer and other catchup services and netflix etc etc... You still only need the licence if you _Watch OR Record_ live streamed signals. Simple - for now. And to repeat whats been said - Do not let them in the house without a warrant - guilty or not. They are a private accountancy firm (Capita) that write shitty threatening letters assuming guilt without proof passing themselves off as a law authority and they drive me nuts. They've written to tell me I'm getting an inspection every year in big red letters insinuating that I am a criminal because I haven't paid up the blackmail racket - they never turn up. NB - Nothing to hide - no live streams here - very little live streaming I miss anyway. 6 nations maybe... but not got the time to sit and watch 40hrs of rugby anyway!

Bet he was glad it was a crane job not a drop job....

I got to drive one these wonderful beasts a while back https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alvis_Stalwart - Permanent six wheel drive with no diffs is great in a field - but with the weight... enough for drive shafts to explode on tarmac - if you see one on tarmac - its either had two drive shafts removed, or you'll watch the nervous driver constantly bouncing it off the kerb to allow the shafts to unwind. Amazing fun driving into a lake though

Can anyone remember what on earth trees have got to do with Christmas?
