    I think (and I'm on holiday ATM) that the ignition barrel is faulty, (as advised by TomD) Redwood have been very helpful and have sent me one to replace. We shorted the starter and it seemed to be cured, when I get back I'll fit the new one and know for sure.

    Ha! It's a puzzle fo' sho'. Surprised it hasn't lured more peeps in.

    Some of the other posters on this thread know their onions, I'd be surprised if they're not already on the case.

    I dunno, tbh, I'm expecting a learned Arbtalker to solve this mystery soon. Can you graft a cornus onto a sorbus?
  5. Mick Dempsey
    Maybe the key is identifying the Dogwood.
  6. Mick Dempsey
    Could you post a pic of the growth joining with the tree at chest height and the one at the base of the tree? (I think that's what he means)

    I know many variegated maples will revert to all green in patches. This may be a similar thing but if I'm honest I don't know, someone on here will I'm sure.

    Are you CERTAIN it comes from the same tree? Not just a seedling snuck in near the base? If it is. Possibly a rarer spécimen sorbus grafted on to root stock, does the rogue piece come from near the base under a graft scar?

    Depends on what bird it is.

    Hi James, your bane is the spelling and grammar. It should be companies not company's and their climbers, not there climbers. There's loads more, but you get the idea. Not being picky but nearly all the websites I look at on this thread have really basic errors. Doesn't anyone proof read them? Sorry to be an arse, but you did ask.

    The 131, heard a few people naysaying but I love it.

    I've just bought the 4mix stihl, very impressed, powerful, good starter, ticks over nicely, which the older 2 stroke never did.

    And a lot of fun as well!

    Our cocker, now sadly departed, was weeing (or trying to) all the time, day and night, we went through all the rigmarole of urinary infection stuff, then an échographie which seemed to show either polyps or cancer. We were having to confront the prospect of an operation. My wife went on the internet and googled about, she then changed the dogs diet to an all wet food one(you know pedigree chum canned stuff, no dry food) There was an immediate recovery, I mean within hours, she then lived on for a few more years. As she got older (she was 9 at the time) her kidneys weren't coping with the dry food. The vets never spotted it at all. Might not be relevant but you never know.

    Precisely, that's clever but a nightmare to feed.

    Saw them a couple of weeks ago here ear Bordeaux. Always a pleasure to see the first.

    Nice work, remind me again of the hp of the tow behind Rayco?

    I don't really understand, to undo the nut you don't need the torque wrench. My standard sockets can do and undo the nuts on my st8 no probs.

    Very often ime, the trees owner will accede to the removal.....if someone else pays. It's often as simple as that.
  21. Mick Dempsey
    Do you think the others would be using it?
  22. Mick Dempsey
    Is that a 395 on your harness in your avatar Matty?
  23. Mick Dempsey
    On the modern ones I'm thinking, PeteB will have the definitive answer.
  24. Mick Dempsey
    Precisely.

    They're ok, I have found that in high summer they can struggle with leylandii. I'm not agin ´em, but by choice, I wouldn't choose them over standard blades.
