I upgraded my early rubbish one and it was a ripper. However.... In your situation I would just buy a new 201 (yours is 5 years old after all!) and see if the old 'un could be fixed as a spare.

Funnily enough, Rayco are doing a 4wd conversion kit for my one, I've made enquiries about price and ease of fitting. Like yours it's surprising pathetic on wet grassy slopes. It's entirely possible Bandit might be doing the same thing.

It's time to wake up - and switch to Aspen Fuel
Mick Dempsey replied to Aspen@AAOIL's topic in Aspen Fuel
Ahhh, the old reverse psychology technique! Goddamit, I can afford it! I'll show you who's sucessful enough to use this stuff. Send me a pallet straight away. Good luck anyway, I'm fine with verifiable stuff, it's just when the claims become a bit far fetched or spurious. -
Remember what happened when you "saved money" on the grinder belts?

It's time to wake up - and switch to Aspen Fuel
Mick Dempsey replied to Aspen@AAOIL's topic in Aspen Fuel
It's too expensive. Taking your points individually. 1. Free delivery, hardly an issue, petrol stations are not rare, and they sell pasties and crisps, not a chore really. 2. Mixing fuel, again not really the krypton factor is it? 3.longer lasting machinery, I don't buy this, I've got saws over 15years old, not everyday saws for sure but still going strong on pump fuel. 4. Health, maybe, maybe not. -
"Soap star flashes gym body on Spanish beach after split from boy band member" Not against that sort of thing TBH, It's fluff but at least it's not masquerading as real news.

I know it's a Friday night and I've had a couple but my God it's terrible. Look at this "story" about Asian hornets in Liverpool Merseyside family terrified after 'killer Asian HORNET' flew into their kitchen | Daily Mail Online I read somewhere it's the most visited newspaper website in the world or something. Best bit is usually the comments at the bottom of the page.

How do you deal with hunger? You eat. Thirst? You drink. Tiredness, rest. No big secret is it? A more cynical man than me would think this is just another thread to tell us all about how hard you work.

Employing foreign staff through agencies
Mick Dempsey replied to Steve Bullman's topic in Business Management
I know they're pretty savage. Pure muppetry for the most part. -
Good stuff all. Special mention to Timon, tricky stuff, that's the sort of job that one thinks about A LOT in bed the night before.

I used to beat a lot, I also used to run a release pen for a couple of years when I was much younger. Can't remember what I was paid, this was back in the '70s Feel sorry for the pheasants really. Stupid flying chickens. Made me sick in the end.

Go to bed.

Ha ha!

For Osborne. I'm waiting for my arbtrader password reset before anyone kicks up. Then I'll put it on there.

Far too pricey (the op) you can get a very serviceable 6" TW with the v1505 Diesel engine for £3750 (if you pm me!)

I have a Rayco rg35. If by waste of time you mean it can make me a lot of money, be towed around easily, access any garden less than 36", and get through lots and lots of stumps per day, big and small with little effort on my part (levers) Then I'm happy to waste my time.

Well, did you work out what it was? We need closure.
-
Dunno, give up, Steve was intimating it might be a sorbus of some sort. Could be right.
-
Big for a crab apple. I'll get googling...
-
Yes, can't help, need more pics, form, bark etc.
-
No pics.

Yes, we loved it Mark. St. Peter's square was really something as well. Pictures not upside down on my iPad btw.

Even in October the sun can be pretty hot down there. Having Irish descendency mean I have to be careful. Here's another one over the forum, the ancient heart of Rome. We did the whole guided tour thing. Hard work, but well worth it.
