  1. Close enough!
  2. Andrew Mountbatten Windsor (as he will now be known) is getting his final punishment from the family. Difficult to feel sorry for him, that Emily Matliss interview really showed what he was all about.
  3. It has its drawbacks, but the ‘modern stuff is rubbish’ crowd are just wanky old moaners. Drive a 25 year old pick up truck, and compare it to the modern ones. Gutless crap in comparison.
  4. Yes, we will have to rethink out strapping down.
  5. New Ifor GF106 to pull the Avant. Tidy!
  6. That is true, and it is annoying.
  7. Calm down Chicken Little. They’re easy enough to turn off.
  8. Hornets nest in it. mission abandoned.
  9. My new Ranger has that, it’s actually very good.
  10. Fb marketplace is full of dreamers, good for little local stuff though.
  11. Got an hours drive to dismantle that stone dead oak that I put off a week or so back, no clear up, so if it goes well then back on the sofa for Neighbours (lunchtime edition)
  12. Ok, I had three 200s, good saws, but not worthy of the reverence they receive. The first 201s were gutless rubbish, Brad Schnellinger (a US saw guru) fixed them with an upgrade to the timing or something, Stihl copied his upgrade and sold it as their own idea. Then started selling them already “fixed” My 201s lasted much longer than the 200s ime, but opinions vary.
  13. Wordle 1,594 4/6 🟨🟨⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜⬜🟨🟨 🟨🟨🟨🟨⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  14. Did she peg you as well then? 26 mile round trip isn’t so bad, if you’ve a decent bike. Apart from the rainy days you might even enjoy it.
  15. Top handles seem to have split into two categories. Take down saws. ie 201, 540 petrol, 542 battery etc. Trim saws, Stihl 151, Echo 2511. What are you after?
  16. Mornin’ Stubs et al. Clearish and cool, squeezing two 3/4 days into a day with the help of another pair of hands. Both in the same village. Rain coming in lunchtime, so it’s against the clock today!
  17. Always tomorrow Doug.
  18. Wordle 1,593 4/6 ⬜⬜🟨⬜⬜ ⬜🟨⬜⬜🟨 🟩🟩🟩⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  19. Probably not family friendly enough, but these Suzuki Jimnys look smart.
  20. Sounds tricky. Birch shenanigans today, some out, some re-re-retopped. Ground is wet so can’t get the Avant onto nice lawns, even with road plates. Wheelbarrow proficiency certificates at the ready.
  21. Wordle 1,592 X/6 ⬜⬜🟨⬜⬜ ⬜🟩⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟩⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟩⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 ha ha! Saw Doug’s effort and thought ‘bloke hasn’t a clue’
  22. Wordle 1,591 5/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟨 🟨🟩⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟨⬜🟩 🟨🟩⬜🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  23. Neither has Igor’s. So his 6am barking is now his 5am barking! 2 smallish cedars to come out today, easy enough start to the week.
  24. Stoneybridge!
  25. What bridge is that? (For googling purposes)
