  1. I saw a pile of brash in a gateway last night when I was out quoting. You should of said you were coming down this way I would of put the kettle on
  2. A bit like that employment thread on here recently where they were looking for only Eastern Europeans for de veg work ! In all honesty I voted remain in vote. Now I think we need to leave as we have the wrong mentality to be in Europe. The Spanish for example have the right idea. If your European then you can stay, if you haven't got work and are not Spanish then starve. As you said if there's a job on offer it's for the Spanish. The rest of Europe must have their produce but in Spain their produce is sold first. To be in Europe and get a fair deal you've got to be a bully and play to win at all costs. We on the other hand don't like to make a fuss and it's not the winning it's the taking part that counts. It's very admirable but just earned us the right to be sh** on by the other member states
  3. One typical example of where we will be after Brexit. My mother has mostly lived in Spain for the last 20 years. In the Uk supermarkets we have Spanish onions, tomatoes, oranges bacon, chorizo etc etc etc. In Spanish supermarkets cathedral city cheese and PG tips. That's it So after Brexit where will we be we will be exactly in the same place. Sorry that's not correct we may have a few more fish in the sea
  4. Harry Barry Larry and Gary how's that for an old codger
  5. I got to say the Stihl does fly through the cut but I haven't heard how the new 540 runs
  6. My 540 went in half last summer hence the purchase of the 201 while the 540 was being rebuilt. The new 540 had just come out and I think that would of been the better buy
  7. And me being serious for a moment The plastics on James 201 are crap
  8. If it semi warm keep your fingers away from the choke. Couple of squirts on the primer and away. Oh and you know the hand you use to press the decomp button? Well smack it with your other hand
  9. I bet you even got those little round paper thingies to put on top of the coasters:001_tongue:
  10. I got to tell you Ti had a bit of a funny moment a few months ago. He walked into a dealers and wondered out with an 880. Don't worry we been keeping an eye on him and we feel confident he won't do it again
  11. There's room on my mates list when he realises that medium groundsaws have to be Husky . I don't mind him having Stihl for his large saws, but I worried for him saying his mediums should be Stihl as I don't want people making fun at him
  12. Any Stihl purchase I try to keep quiet. I could do with a Stihl Sticker for my dustbin. That'll stop the bloke down the he road trying to pinch it
  13. No. He said I thought they only made disc cutters. I replied there's another company making chainsaws. Their full name is " Stihl not working properly " but we call them Stihl for short He replied " I thought you chainsaw boys were on good money, why don't you spend a bit more and buy some Huskys " :lol:
  14. Drink coasters ? You can afford drink coasters
  15. No problem you just knock. I'll ask my Mrs to bring a bowl and flannel just in case you need a top and tail
  16. Pleasure as always. If you need me to fetch your slippers and make a nice cup of Hot Chocolate later just give me a shout ok
  17. Thankfully my will power is strong Got to tell you this. On site today there were some builders. The one had never seen a top handle chainsaw. While James was trying to start his 200t round the other side of the garage ( as you know they go bluh bluh bluh 20 times before they start) the builder said what chainsaw is that, to which I replied sounds like a Stihl to me :lol:
  18. I glad your still regular with you bowel movements But I think you may have got the wrong end of the stick
  19. My name is blar blar. I have smoked sniffed and drank most things. I fornicated out of wedlock but I ain't no orange and white lover
  20. Who else was stupid enough to put in a big job today.
