  1. I have one and find it quite suitable for my needs, but I'm not up top on ropes. If you already have makita 18v lxt tools then it complements them quite well.
  2. Marital recommend Aspen. Or at least they do in the handbook.
  3. Didn't say that. Scotland made a mess of their own line-out. What followed was a consequence of that error. Their doing, no one else's.
  4. My point being, they lost their line-out. Win that and they were in the semi's. Everything that followed was a consequence of that error.
  5. Worth remembering that Scotland destiny lay in their own hands. All they had to do was win their own line-out. Blaming Joubert and/or the system is a side issue. England cocked up their line-out and got pilloried. Scotland cocked up theirs and it's someone else's fault.
  6. The ones in the wrong are the various pundits, nearly all ex players, who have publicly castigated the ref for not using the TMO during the match and specifically 'that' incident. The likes of Gavin Hastings and that no name Matt Dawson would do themselves a favour by publicly apologising for their comments about the ref. He followed the rules imposed on him. They banged on about the lack of courtesy on protocol on the refs part by not shaking the captains hands and making a hasty retreat. The same protocol says you do not abuse the ref, especially when you yourself don't know the rules. If the ref had attempted to go upstairs to the TMO, imagine the outcry from the Aussies, and the likely put down when when the ARs or TMO himself refused the request -rembering that we can all hear the officials.
  7. Not allowed, fella would have been pilloried for doing so, oh, hang on. Bottom line, he made a split second call in a pressure situation and followed the rules.

    Seems they, or at least one of them, has form.

    As an aside, recalling the case of a chap getting prosecuted by hse for improper use of chainsaw, couldn't they jump on this shower of crooks to? Teach the bstds a lesson.

    Not good viewing for the industry. On now
  12. I too opened an Hareaves account but for a SIPP. I don't trust insurance companies to run pension funds so thought I'd take control of it myself. With Auto enrolment for pensions coming in it spurred me to make make the decision. As yet I've avoided individual shares and stuck to funds. Also, in an attempt to hopefully minimise the risk (there always is risk) I've selected funds from their Wealth 150+ list. Reason for funds and not shares are several, but main ones are; In reality I know jack about buying /selling the best stock at the right time. Fees are minimal - in comparison to dealing in shares as an individual The Fund Manager is well experienced and their performance is minutely scrutinised by both their company and the market. The SIPP contributions get me the tax benefits Has it being a good move?. I'd say so. Certainly better than one of my insurance investments. Average performance of 4 funds matching my Prudential policy and a couple ahead of the game. All that said, the last few weeks has made for grim reading but that happened for virtually everybody and does tend to happen on an almost yearly cycle.
  13. Amazing how many elf n safety brigade take pictures of people doing things they consider wrong and/or dangerous.......but do nothing to stop them continuing.....then take the moral high ground.
  14. First priority for any team is getting through the group stage. Finishing top of the group is not necessarily the best option, especially with Japan beating the saffa's.
  15. Want to? More likely a case of doing as he's told. Scary.
