  1. This international duo have just dropped one of the hottest new albums of ‘23
  2. Nigel Farage gets an apology.
  3. I’ve never understood this ‘use an old chain’ thing. If it’s not sharp you’ll never get through the stump. As soon as you hit a stone or whatever you’ll have to sharpen it anyway, whether it is new, or on its last knockings.
  4. Don’t enslave yourself with Google reviews, bollocks to ‘em. Bung him a £50 and tell him to feck off.
  5. Heavy reduction in order.
  6. Al Jolson. Lillee Langtree. Nell Gwynne. Allen-a-Dale ……
  7. @Johnsond better him than his daughter!
  8. Ironic thing was I was all jelly legged up a ladder trying to foam the nest whilst these chinooks were coming in and out. I instructed him to keep clear so he was 20 odd meters away. One just left the nest and headed straight for him, bang! Straight on his temple, then away, so you could be right.
  9. Yep Joe, that’s how it went for me, be careful.
  10. Well yeah, but we don’t have to put the amount of work into a quote that you do, so if someone doesn’t respond I assume they don’t want me to do the work. I’d charge them for the plans if I were you.

  20. I sold my 2015 ranger last year, no rust on the chassis at all, or anywhere in fact. Has to be the salt on the roads over there.
  21. Trans birch are birch.
  22. I fixed a leaky drain plug in a Greenmech hydraulic oil tank with some grey stuff that I mixed up. Worked a treat. Not going to lose a grands worth of saw over this!
  23. A chain snapped on my 560 punching a little hole in the oil tank (pictured) What is the best product to effect a repair and any tips on usage? TIA Mick
  24. There’s a thread on an American forum I’m on where a guy talks about his dads death in a tree, suffocated by his harness in a rigging mishap. His two non climbing groundies had to stand helpless and watch. I’ll get a link put up in a short while. My dad was killed in the tree | The Tree House MASTERBLASTERHOME.COM My dad was kill in April, it’s been really hard because I feel like I should have been there. I made this video, it...
  25. I’d leave them be.
