  1. I would have thought, amongst other uses, pulling over back leaners/ensuring trees do as they're told whilst falling would be a major attraction. Electric is fine for that.
  2. We had a similar experience a few years back. Anti histamine can take the edge of it a bit.
  3. We seem to be living in interesting times, sounds like a military coup is happening in Turkey.
  4. Agreed, and I have used it for advice on machinery repair to good effect. But I've tried to repair it and reached the point where I've needed help It's just if one hasn't even done/or have the ability to do the basics i.e. eliminated Air/tank filter, checked for a spark, plug tightness, fuel lines. Just come on here and said "it doesn't work, what is it?" Do the basics first then ask for advice is all I'm saying.
  5. I would have thought any tractor/topper combo with over 60hp would eat that up. Do two or three passes to leave it tidy, first one in a very low gear. It's only 2 acres, couple of hours max.
  6. I often think when I read these threads "why don't you take it to the shop?"
  7. Estonians won't stay round here, far too boring. There were some Syrians but they moved away, couldn't hack it. (Not even joking!)
  8. What can I say, I love the "finition" with the ionised water, or de-ionised I don't know which.
  9. Bit early for a meeting, needed to kill some time so I took the dog for a walk in the woods. I figured a totally gratuitous photo was in order.
  10. You know when a thread keeps appearing and you think to yourself "nah not for me" and never open it, then one day you do and wow!
  11. Have you looked at lease/hire to get what you REALLY want? Ie a brand new machine. Credit has rarely been cheaper.
  12. No offence against the kid, good to see someone learning on the tools. I think I'd had a glass or two.
  13. Nice trees. Puts me in mind of a call I received back when I lived in the UK. Client asked me to come out and reduce "Sussex's tallest yew tree" Turned out to be a crappy half dead macrocarpa. He took it in good spirit to be fair to him!

    Euro 2016

    Here we go, personally I'm hoping for a Portugal win with a star performance by you know who. I've enjoyed watching him for years, be good to see such a great player get an international accolade.
  16. Probably because, It's an intriguing title, but then there's a picture of a stick.
  17. Bit toasty here today at 30. Cooling down to the mid 20s for the working week. Perfect!
  18. Nice day at the office on the Tassie. Thanks for posting.
