  1. SNP not show any sign of following any science at all.
  2. Scottish Covid powers to be extended by six months WWW.GOOGLE.CO.UK Ministers want the option of enforcing face masks and vaccine passports until late September. Scotland sadly is being ran by a power hungry control freak. If anyone ever had any doubt about how an independent Scotland would work out they should just take a look at the last 2 years.
  3. There are numerous places around the UK where low and high water slack can be measured in mins, the Severn barrage has been spoken of for years but no progress. The current boom in wind farms is nothing short of a National disgrace, if people realised how virtually zero of the structures being put up or vessels used to install are built here or crewed by UK nationals they’d be shocked, billions being made by overseas yards and foreign energy companies with virtually no benefit to the UK workforce or taxpayers.
  4. Lost count of the times this has been on Ebay. Londonderry now. Beware.
  5. Supposed to blow again tomorrow, had two willows alongside a stream come down in the garden too taking my phone line out. No power again in Fyvie . Lot of big beech down already from Arwen and a few more have come down locally today.
  6. That for that porch job Andy ??
  7. Il get the chance to cut a few and see what the nose says, mixed load of hardwood at sensible money so even for firewood it’s an ok deal. I’m starting to see you in a new light Mick away from the grief of Brexit or Covid.
  8. 3 beech and an Oak Mark Taking advantage of the general sense of calm on here at the moment could one of you experts please confirm what this is.
  9. Yeah but apparently took no notice 🤷‍♂️ Who knows eh.
  10. There was 3 nice clean Beech logs in amongst the pile, they are totally gone. He’d done one Oak and started in the second. Truth is around Aberdeenshire there is an abundance of trees down and windbown to be had at minute, but I guess the temptation was too much.
  11. I’d have probs got myself in a spot of bother Andy to tell truth. Years ago I had an 84 cr500 stolen but managed to recover it in bits. How we dealt with that then would just buy you jail time nowadays and a goodbye to my FAC etc.
  12. ? How comes mick ?? Let’s keep it civil, we ain’t on the covid thread now.
  13. Got back home today after a trip away working, went to start and get some Oak and Beech sorted out ready for milling 😡🤷‍♂️. Some thieving bugger had taken it upon themselves to start ringing it up. It’s in a property with a yard on a local estate, locked chain across entrance. He took his chance when builders were in repairing damage from storm Arwen, basically drove in and started once entrance was unlocked. Can’t knock his audacity but by god I wish I’d rocked up as he was part way through ringing up a bloody nice Oak log.
  14. Cheers Stubby Yeah traces of a few nails I saw for sure , it was the staining I was curious of. Oak ?.
  15. Hi looking at a mix of Oak and Elm taken down post Arwen for milling up ( not quite sure of the logs in the pic mind) . Just wondering anyone can ID the staining seen in the pics,
  16. Try ignoring it or not commenting on it if it bothers you that’s what I do when I see your smug one liners pop up elsewhere. I’m ticking along just fine Mick, so save your life advice or if you really feel the need find something else to get worked up over.
  17. What shit you punching into the keyboard ?? . Who’s a victim 🤷‍♂️ I presume this rant of your own makes sense to you. You like the sound of your own voice yourself Mick big time. The solution for you is if you don’t like what I post ignore it, as I often do when seeing your posts or comments, simple as that. As for same old shit well a lot of what many people having been saying about the covid farce for a long time has sadly as the months go by been proven to be not that far off the mark.
  18. Boris Johnson says UK will 'contribute' to NATO deployment if Russia invades Ukraine APPLE.NEWS Boris Johnson has said the UK will "contribute" to any new NATO deployments if Russia invades Ukraine. Only one thing to say and that is ****************ing politicians are the worst virus this planet has. Throw in a bit of the same irresponsible MSM hype and hysteria that we have witnessed with covid and numerous manufactured crisis and you have a potential for utter stupidity to take over.
  19. George Orwell's 1984 slapped with 'offensive' warning as woke madness hits new heights WWW.MSN.COM GEORGE Orwell's 1984 has been slapped with an "offensive" warning as woke madness hits new heights within Britain's... 🤷‍♂️😞
  20. An absolute nut case of a government.
  21. They and most of the big open class 2 strokes from that era have turned out to be cracking investments.
  22. Not BSA but you undoubtedly know where it’s roots lie. Myself and two other lads competed in the 80s & 90s on a mixture of 2 stroke machines, one of whom much to our ridicule at the time decided to take a punt on a 78 580 which he still has to this day, price now is probs 10 times what he paid. I tried it for one race after he wiped himself out one time but could not get to grips with the 1 up 2 down right hand change box. I still have a cracking book called “Rolling Thunder a history of CCM( Alan Clews era) that I got for Xmas many years ago. ( stock pic)
