Why won’t they back a GE then. corybn has wanted one for months. in my opinion it’s not about “crashing out” (used loosely as it’s the slowest crash ever) I think he knows he can’t win.
-
I’ve got some stihl ones. I caught my leg years ago so when I saw them I got some. Keep you warm on cold hedge cutting days too
-
Did you mean it won’t get far because it’s a Land Rover ? ?? Being serious thats bad news hope it turns up. Wankers!

It’s a fair point re university. My boys won’t get a grant of any sort (by that I mean means tested) yes the tuition fees can go on a loan but living expenses books etc and pissing it up the wall no doubt will be down to us as our choice. I don’t want my kids starting life in massive debt. That’s putting aside the fact that I think far too many get “Mickey Mouse” degrees and end up in Tesco or McDonald’s anyway..... business is doing well and hopefully getting better so may do both. i don’t mind waiting if it means they have a better start
-
I could get what I want now I suppose but I’m too frightened of the size of mortgage it would need so I’m saving still. If the boys go to university I guess it will be another 10 years?
-
It’s not just the last decade. I’ve been saving and “moving up” the housing ladder for coming up 25 years to get myself into the same type of property you want to get. I’m at least 5 years away I think but I will get there in the end. I bought my first house when earning £3.60 an hour it took 3 years saving to get the deposit. its never been easy to get the house you really want

That’s the standard black above heres a dash done in a landrover paint code
-
-
The standard black is fairly dull, the tintable stuff goes like the colour you add to it so can get quite shiny. it’s a textured but not splattered finish when done right. problem is it goes off really quick so if you don’t hurry up when spraying it can start thickening in the pot of the gun and the spray nozzle. It starts going off it looks splattery and crap
-
I use it to spray the defender dashboards we make as it doesn’t scratch easily. the tintable stuff is good as you just add whatever colour you want to it.
-
I bought some for home for box plants in tubs not bad at all and easier than the big hedge cutters
-
You tell yourself that if it makes you feel better. ive got less of an issue with him claiming dole and working (don’t like it but it’s his choice and what happens if anything happens is his problem) but paying the man £40 a day for hard graft seems mean even in those circumstances.
-
If you look at it that way it’s still wrong as your then not paying him enough per day
-
Wow! the problems I see are that that you are knowingly letting someone abuse the system and 2 you are making it harder for people that need to charge properly..........
-
It would be about £60-£65 per m2 all in around here for that small bit
-
Hi Ben I could take a trailer load or 2 away if possible? many thanks in advance richard edit the smaller stuff would be fine if others want the big stuff
-
And lock it inside the tree. trees cut for building things out of is ok I think as the co2 staying locked inside it trees cut for burning I’m not sure about. i do think trees could be carbon neutral if enough were to be planted. just my thoughts.
-
Sort of. It falls down when trees aren’t replaced. if they are not replaced they are not carbon neutral. i don’t believe for a minute that all trees harvested are replaced do you replace each tree you cut down? Genuine question
-
How much good is chopping trees down doing the planet?.............
-
Get quickbooks or similar then you can invoice from your phone iPad etc and email them out.
-
I do a lot of strimming round lamp posts street signs etc and found I was changing line too often even using thick expensive line so went back to bump heads. i still use it now and then if I get a clearance job with some 6mm Oregon line with teeth on it I forget the name it’s good but £70 a reel!
-
I never got on well with mine seems like people like them though
-
Just for future reference If the spring goes weak replace it they are about 80p.......
-
Maybe. on the other hand if they were to be more punitively taxed they would just cut margins elsewhere and that would trickle down to the bottom and affect those least able to afford it. like I said earlier the tax system is flawed at both ends of the scale. too little at the top and people complain a rich person might “only pay” £200k in tax. I wonder how much the top would care either way if the tax free level was brought up to levels that people could live properly on? My thought is they wouldn’t give it a second thought
-
But Mrs mop isn’t being taxed at 23% as nearly 70% of her money is not taxed at all. i think if the tax was slightly less percentage wise for high earners but they can’t hide any money offshore etc. Tax income would probably increase but the rich would not feel like they were being punished for doing well. that said I think tax free income should be set at more than 11k as if your only making 15 you haven’t got much spare set it at £20k as an example
