Mornin’ all. 35 degrees today, got a cupressuss to come out. Race against the heat again, should be a cakewalk. (famous last words)
-
Hellish!
-
Yeah, probably.

Are you going to pull the old Sovereign Citizen schtick? Cos watching those wankers get turned over by fat US cops on YouTube is a favorite of mine.

Ukraine is (very) slowly losing ground apparently. Dunno, I guess it’ll grind to a halt this winter, then a deal will be struck. A lot depends on Iran which just signed an economic/security pact with the Russians in January. If the US decides to try and déposé the Iran government and succeeds, that’ll be another ally in the region lost to Russia (after Syria) Maybe then an emboldened DJT might throw his weight behind Ukraine. Who can say in this crazy world?

I think you’d be surprised how many people think the same about the UK.

I don’t think there’s anything incriminating in the files about DJT. Maybe he went there, banged a few hookers, so what?

32 degrees today, planning on just being in the Avant or driving home by early afternoon when it really starts to warm up.

Wake up this morning and DJT is sabre rattling over joining in with Israel attacking Iran, calling for Iran’s unconditional surrender, things moving fast.

If you’re switching implements regularly during the day back and forth, quick connectors are very handy.

I think he means close the grab or implement so there’s the minimum of H oil in the hydraulic ram.

You don’t bleed them.

Ok then, maybe not.

The 230 is more convenient to maintain than the 150, easier access to blades, greasable bearings. Removable top to roller box. Engine compartment wise there’s little difference, same brilliant motor. The 150 was a game changer when it arrived, still fetching crazy money these days. The Schliesing is very well built, but a heavy bastard, 2.2 tonnes, no suspension. A pita for day to day stuff. Easy to maintain, plenty of space around the engine and stuff for curious fingers.

God I love my TW230 though! Best pound for pound chipper I’ve ever used or owned.

He was definitely joking, don’t worry.

Israel is the very definition of Not fecking about.

Fair point, the answer is in there somewhere.

First thing is the anvil. If the fans were damaged it would shake like buggery.

Almost unbelievably the wife and I managed to put on the roof and activate a starlink gen 3 dish this morning.

If your chipper is not throwing the chip as far as it used to then there’s an issue like rounded anvil etc. If it’s never really thrown it far enough then that’s a different story. My Schliesing throws it plenty good!
