  1. Me neither, but I have had this discussion with yanks who are up and down sappy conifers day in day out for whom it's an issue (rope cleaning as well) Ftr I only use mine on more technical stuff.
  2. Watching Katie Perry perform after only having seen her flashing her tits about in the papers and generally act the goat made me réalisé how overhyped she is. I watched some 19 year old called Siegfried or something earlier, that was real talent. Love Glastonbury.......on the Telly!
  3. If I replace the word Problem with the word Probably that post makes sense. If that's right then why is that sneaky?
  4. You put the Sneaky emoji after your post.
  5. About to tell the wife I'm not going shopping. Can't miss this!
  6. Every time I see this thread I always think.... Once properly seasoned, yes, a sparrow will burn nicely.
  7. TBH, I think they're both great saws, no pro would be found wanting using either one.
  8. Nice pics John, I take down a lot of cedars (deodars) out here. Nice trees to work on. Just got too big for the clients?
  9. Maybe, I'm fairly heavy handed with my toppers, rarely stow them on the belt, drag them around the tree etc. I had an early 540, terrific power but the chain brake snapped taking a part of the aluminum engine casing, I sold it to the guy that worked for me as the repair would have been pricey. One of my 201s will probably get replaced soon, I will probably get another 540 just to vary things. But I could change my mind on the day!
  10. Run 201s since the start, never had an issue with build quality.
  11. Don't fall for that mawkish nonsense in that post. It's cynical use of tragedy.
  12. All I'm saying is that they did their job, well done. It's what they joined up and have been trained to to do. I'm not being disparaging about them, I'm being disparaging about that anonymous post jumping on the fire for political purchase about fire fighters pensions, retirement age etc. For shame.
  13. I read it, fire fighters attend fire. Do their job. End of story.
  14. Big cat of St Albans caught on camera | Daily Mail Online Errr, it's a cat.
  15. Really odd self contradictory post:confused1:
