  1. 🙂.....
  2. This thread has been quite interesting Perhaps Mr Bullman could introduce a marriage guidance app to go with the knot and fungi apps. 😘
  3. Haribo tangfastics
  4. Been listening to these lately.....
  5. If it was my missus it would take more than a cheap pack of petrol station flowers to say sorry. If you're not genuinely sorry why bother? I think your missus would prefer honesty than false apologies. Why not just be real with her and tell her that work is more important than anything. Although I guess she must have worked that one out for herself by now ???
  6. I think everyone has been talking to Jon on whatsapp, Stubby! 🙂👍👍
  7. Just finished sharpening a damaged chain. One of the best £20 I ever spent
  8. Window cleaning. (Old school with a ladder) clearing the sand of the back line on Bournemouth beach. Working on the bins. Concrete gang on a construction site. Etc. I'm glad I get to do what I'm doing now. I love it 🙂👍👍
  9. Hardest job I ever did was pushing two buttons on a production line in a factory that made steel buildings. I knew if I stayed there I would die slowly. Very slowly. There are different types of "hard" Hand dig outs landscaping are hard. But they aren't stressful Long distance lorry driving is hard in the sense that it is mentally tiring. Driving a telehandler on a busy construction site is very stressful. As well as running an Arb business my wife and I also run a recovery centre for ex-addicts and alcoholics. I have a 9-5 job and a 5-9 job, both are demanding in different ways. But both are hugely rewarding (not in the financial sense though) I've had some really awful jobs, but the thing that made them hard was the fact that I hated doing them. I've had some really physically demanding jobs. Fencing,
  10. Hope you get sorted Steve. It's horrible when people don't pay what they have agreed.

    About time!

    I think this must be the first decent EU decision I have heard about. It's about time big corporations were made to pay their wack. Apple 'should repay Ireland 13bn euros' Apple 'should repay Ireland 13bn euros' - BBC News
  12. I use it as a friction hitch on ddrt with a hitch climber system occasionally and also on a work positioning soft lanyard. Ocean polyester e2e 8mm is my preference.
  13. If none of the above works a lighted match should get it going...
  14. Should of done her CS38🐵 Early human ancestor Lucy 'died falling out of a tree' Early human ancestor Lucy 'died falling out of a tree' - BBC News
  15. Use it for guy lines.
  16. Use it to pre-tension rigging lines.
  17. Until I learn to splice, it's my favourite termination.
  18. Think it's a 16mm auger bit. Steve. I've done some before in discs but can't remember the exact size.
  19. My Mrs happens to be a yank. Native American and Norwegian descent from Iowa. I don't always agree with her on that basis, mind.
  20. Do mean a branch roll? (In queens English) I agree.
  21. Perhaps we should find ways of harvesting the energy of the ravers. Converting mdma into electricity, that would be cutting edge technology.
  22. Bad day at someone's office. I wouldn't to be paying their premiums after that.
  23. forced to drive it, you mean Bob?
  24. Speedos and a silky. That's what you call minimalist
  25. Think it will take more than a few turbines to offset that! I doubt any of their senior executives live in the same area as their operations.?
