  1. Seen that before, extraordinary bravery and balance. last summer I had two multiple sting events with bees, first one was 6 stings second maybe 4, not really that painful, however on the second one I had a strong reaction and had to have an injection as my throat was swelling etc. Apparently because the two events were so close in time (8 weeks maybe) my body couldn’t handle the poison or something. So now I have to carry a épi pen in case for the rest of my life. I wonder how this plays out with this guy?
  2. Yeah, he’s a good laugh on there. Plenty of giggles to be had on Twitter.
  3. Obviously I couldn’t watch 20 minutes of this. On Twitter David Icke was saying that 5g is the reason, he also said it was going to be used to control the masses etc.
  4. Working late! Out of curiosity was the chipper on another job, is that why you stacked the brush up?
  5. An almost forgotten band /artist from the eighties, possibly because of the silly name, The The. They seemed to capture the feeling of being late teens early twenties when you’re waiting for life to happen. Not quite as good as their more illustrious and successful angst ridden contemporaries like The Smiths and The Bunnymen etc. But meant a lot to me at the time. I went to Israel to work on a kibbutz and Soul Mining was one of the three tapes I took to play on my Walkman along with the Smiths and Bronski Beat. No wonder I had such a difficult time! Anyway for one reason or another I only seem to be able to post the 12 inch version of Uncertain Smile which I don’t expect anyone to endure, but if you’re of a certain age This is the Day is worth a relisten, if only for the great accordion.
  6. Last photo, left hand side of the hedge, are those living bits or cut frith?
  7. Didn’t field maples come in with the romans?
  8. I’ll join you in a bottle of Sancerre shortly.
  9. He’s talking about putting the chipper on the truck and towing the trailer.
  10. They’re so ugly, I see one in a nearby village and it must be the worst looking car since British Leyland. I wonder about the design meeting when they passed it.
  11. Yes by mating wiv our bootiful British pure white headed duck. Coming over from America with their stiff little tails......
  12. Never seen one, but remember the hopper will be very high and feeding it will be a real pita. Taking it off would mean unhitching the trailer etc.
  13. Outstanding, as usual. Some big low swings there, tricky.
  14. Here’s the US forum Kevin http://masterblasterhome.com/search.php?searchid=3302936 Same as here, anyone can join. I meant the FB forum we both use.
  15. Ok thanks, I tend to run at 1500 for everyday lifting/moving but move up to 1800 for flail work. Maybe I’ll go on the MO forum and see what the great and good think there.
  16. Been meaning to ask you Kevin, on your flail what revs do you run at for maximum efficiency,
  17. Big birthday and make positive steps towards improving your lot and doing what you want. I doff my ? to you.
  18. What’s the attraction? Endless threads showing badly trimmed trees, countless comments from peeps tagging others saying “was this you?” Or others saying how the perpetrators should be fed to the crocodiles. It’s like Jeremy Kyle on there No in depth chat, no technical help, no one is listening, just shouting, a real no learn zone and yet I see a few names from here have migrated. Someone tell me what it’s all about.
  19. Do the rollers still have crushing power? Is it just that they’re slow?
  20. Perfect piece of seventies rock. “He’s the hairy handed gent who ran amok in Kent, lately he’s been overheard in Mayfair. Brilliant.
