  1. Boris Johnson news - live: Labour demands explanation as Rishi Sunak’s wife defends non-dom tax status APPLE.NEWS Most people who live in the UK are required to pay tax on all their income, irrespective of its source Well Mark J, like I say they are all the bloody same. The reality is it doesn’t matter what party is in power politicians with the odd notable exception are laughing at us half the time, the last two years in particular have proven how gullible the masses can be.
  2. I recently helped out one of the Norwegian crane ops on a vessel I was on to source some Barnes copper bullet heads here in the UK for reloading as like you say due to recent legislation etc banning lead non lead reloading components have become virtually impossible to get. Needless to say he didn’t have a high opinion of the government department responsible.
  3. I wish my place looked as tidy as this 😳
  4. Not a cat in hells chance that’s a legit ad that machine is min 10k below what it’s worth. The amount of scams involving plant and machinery is off the scale at the minute. Defo a time to be careful.
  5. That would be a very effective and marketable combination.
  6. £45-50per hr plus bands is fair enough. Totally understand the benefits of being able to turn your hand to multiple things to make a crust.
  7. There’s a middle ground I’d say, £350 is way too cheap for a man and woodmizer for a day, £635 is on the upper end of things but justifiable if the mill is top of the range high production eqpt. I can think of more enjoyable things to do for a day, admittedly it does have its plus points but can also be bloody hard and frustrating graft.
  8. Labour staff 'gagged' over sexual harassment claims APPLE.NEWS Two former Labour staff were asked to sign confidentiality agreements after bringing harassment complaints against a senior... All the same Mark
  9. The tracking is fiddly rather than difficult to set, the supplied manual is good and explains it well enough. 37s on a 130 worked really well for me.
  10. Is that another way of saying she’s a total hypocrite
  11. But still; she'd be preferable to a nation wrecking, environment wrecking, ultra egoist, lying nut job. No I’d say not, the prospect of the likes of rayner or abbot being involved in running the country is a grim one. Anyway 42 I’ve left a few posts, including one just now conveying Javids new found wisdom for you and the other covid zealots regarding the utter futility of your chosen cause for the past 2 years. The silence is deafening. Nation wrecking !!!😳 terrified hiding inside fannies demanding safety for the past two years egged on by labour, including Rayner demanding harsher restrictions for longer have done more damage than that tit Boris ever will. Politician’s 🤷‍♂️
  12. A home wrecking ultra socialist angry nut job put into appease the left. Nothing more nothing less.
  13. I did Mark, rubbish quite frankly I thought, nothing but one sided propaganda so much so that any valid points were lost. Like I keep saying they are all the same bud. The current pathetic excuse for an opposition is not helping matters. Starmer is a dripping totally uninspiring captain hindsight millionaire socialist whom most working class people have zero connection with. He should have had Boris in bits by now. It’s ironic that it takes a mass sacking event to wake people up in regards the UK seafarers situation when in reality it’s been going on for years.
  14. No your not Mark it’s only ever an opportunity to Tory bash with you, the UK shipbuilding and seafarers have been failed by every government for years, what you mean is you don’t mind if it’s labour shafting people but do if it’s Tory. . Politicians are all the same once in power. The video is nothing Mark, media can make up anything they want and most will buy it.
  15. Been going on for years under successive governments Mark. Try and make a political anti Tory thing if you want but your about 40 years behind the curve.
  16. Id give it a whirl Les no probs, as long as client is aware of what might be in the beams. End of day a lot of the Elm or Beech I see is often not shy of the odd nail or bit of wire. I was watching a program the other day about the teams doing the ongoing maintenance on I think, Canterbury cathedral and the lengths they went to in retaining original timbers was incredible. The stonemasons in particular were something else.
  17. Rotherham: Grooming gang detective cleared of misconduct WWW.GOOGLE.CO.UK In total 47 officers were investigated over the handling of claims of child sex abuse in Rotherham. Not a surprising outcome sadly.
  18. Good luck With the right eqpt and prep it can be done. Do some thorough checks with the detector etc and ask about stellite tipped blades, they can take a nail or two and whilst you will definitely blunt them you can often finish a cut.
  19. Not too hard to do, there’s a load of pics ( including these) and discussion on a previous post on here regarding trailer options etc.
  20. This is the sort of thing I mentioned a few days ago Mark.
  21. Quite frankly it’s more embarrassing that he hasn’t the confidence and balls to stand patiently in a smart and soldier like or decent manner, rather than fiddling about like a twat. The standard of arsehole behind him is no loss to anyone.
  22. Hi John Where you based !!. Might be worth getting a look or even a try on some of the members bits of kit before making a decision. I used to have a Woodlands 130 and have nothing but good to say about them for the money they cost. I know Trigger Andy has the logosol bandsaw and can confirm having seen it cut that it’s a cracking machine. No experience of the Norwood but I know one guy whom runs a heavily modified 36 in Inverness, he’s put roller guides on rather than the ceramic blocks and a pile of other mods to get it to perform.
  23. That’s decent going for a day, it’s always the same with the wind eh 🤷‍♂️. What do you use for the blade lube when doing Larch ??.
  24. Lot of Oak down your way Les, not so easy to find up in this neck of the woods bud. I was lucky and got hold of some decent enough stuff the other day. No problem shifting it at all up here Les if I wanted too.
  25. Whatiffery is as is often quoted on here is pointless. The post highlights very well the hypocrisy of the current bunch of whining Labour politicians, and also what a catastrophic mess the last labour government left things in.
