  7. Maybe that is where the bike suit guy has gone 🤔
  8. Here was this one bloke he was 8ft tall you know! (Just like this tail)
  9. Any one after a good condition easy lift? Open to offers, it’s not being used and is in the way. Happy to sort postage. Im not desperate for the £ so no I wont except 50p and a curlywurly 🤣
  10. I would love to know where this is, if live oak Copice stools of that age are genuinely being destroyed with permission heads should be rolling. ive a funny feeling someone is trying to pull everyone’s plonker and is getting plenty of bites!
  11. 4 inch sounds far better
  12. To floppy, metal to metal fatigue. If your worried I would update the dead eye sling.

    Volkswagen Beetle, probably early 70s
  15. There is worse firewood. I would take lime over willow or horse chestnut any day
  16. Looks a handy bit of kit. What sort of money did it cost you to build?
  17. My favourite used to be my lid, put it down while on the rake at end of a job and leaving it behind.
  18. wrong tree planted in wrong location, I would put money on either it was pot bound and didn’t like the drought last year or the man next door has some roundup and a paint brush. They are near impossible to kill by cutting them back. what I wanted to say was: Result that’s one less giant euc to worry about in 10 year time you and the neighbourhood had a lucky escape there.
  19. No worries
  20. No worries, just shout. As to the boat cost don’t we know it, most expensive bit of water in Europe!

  22. Evening Eggs. I can’t do the driveway here at the mo I’m afraid but there are a fair few good pitching spots locally I can put you on to, some tucked away and some right on the beach, just let me know if your coming this way and I will do what I can to see you right while your on my rock! 👍
  23. Any one after an easy lift harness? We have one here that we don’t really use anymore after stopping doing big hedges. it’s probably 3-4 year old but only been used half a dozen times and is in as new condition. Got both Velcro straps for fixing on the tools as well as a added tool clip Its a double gas strut one (heavy duty) but you can remove one gas strut if you require less lift. can sort posting it at cost. Or can collect from Isle of Wight! £150 ovno Last pic is a sales pic from the easy lift web site as I’ve not unfolded it and used it just to get the same pic!
  24. I thought they all had lots of chippers, just not their own!
