  1. Why’s that then ??? Is that even a serious question or is it the citizen smith getting the better of the capitalist in you. Simple Mark it’s pure and utter criminal destruction of property, you can’t pick and choose based upon your political views what you deem acceptable, if that was a crowd pulling down a statue of Mandela because of his terrorist past ive no doubt you’d be up in arms, I don’t buy into the white and right is all bad and every ethnic minority or blm supporter left of centre is good bud. Life’s a bit more complicated than that. Trudeau has been an absolute lockdown zealot for what good it achieved , well until he fancied living it up at the G7 party, including using armed police to close churches so I was surprised to see that just being allowed to happen. It’s not just a chunk of metal is it Mark, quite frankly that’s an utterly ridiculous comment.
  2. Queen Victoria statue toppled in Canada APPLE.NEWS Queen Victoria statue toppled in Canada Shame Canadian powers that be and in particular Trudeau weren’t as zealous with these guys as they were with those they deemed broke the covid regs.
  3. Hi All just wondering if anyone had any experience of using woodmizer blades 4800 x 38, or have any recommendations??. looking at trying a few different types to see which works best on my Trakmet, the supplied X cut blades are leaving a great finish but not fast at all and very prone to deflection when cutting if pushed too hard. All settings and tensions are good and it’s happening with brand new bands !!. Spoke to an experienced guy on the forum and the saw dr I use with a view to getting them reset which I’ll do this weekend when first 20 go in to be sharpened. 🤷‍♂️Just realised guys I’ve put this on the back of another post 🙄. Not concentrating and or multi tasking and failing miserably.
  4. Cheers for that. Would have been good to know what it actually was.
  5. Did you ever find out what make and model it was ??
  6. Stinks to tell the truth 🤷‍♂️As you say far easier to drop them to a police station than try and find out how to get them to the BBC.
  7. UK must be prepared for ‘significant flu epidemic’ this winter, says government adviser APPLE.NEWS ‘Seasonal influenza is likely to be a significant issue coming into the autumn and winter,’ says... I often wonder how with a succession of absolutely totally wrong modelling predictions to his name he somehow continuously manages to get so much coverage for every bloody utterance he comes out with
  8. Check Ferguson’s track record too if you want a history of absolute corkers.
  9. Ferguson is back in like nothing ever happened, slap on the wrist a short break and slide back in on the payroll, it doesn’t matter who’s in charge it’s much of a muchness, how many times was old Mandleson given the push 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
  10. Sold
  11. I’d be inclined to get in touch with the supplier rather than try a home fix even though annealing is not exactly rocket science, 3 from the same batch would strongly suggest a QC issue. I never had any issues at all with 37s on the 130.
  12. I’ll take any tiny bit of positivity in the midst of this lunacy
  13. COVID-19: 'No substantial outbreaks' after test events for sport, music and clubbing, report finds APPLE.NEWS No substantial outbreaks of COVID-19 were reported after a series of pilot events bringing... 👍
  14. Careful Andy whatever your name is or you’ll be on the arse list 😡.
  15. Wouldn’t of had that paper down as the preferred reading of a healthcare professional.
  16. It wasn’t a proper row really Les, debate is ongoing I’m actually waiting for a reply to a cordial question to our resident health care professional, and quite frankly a couple of the worst offenders on the pro restriction team have not let up mate they just go about it in a more deniable manner 🤷‍♂️
  17. Lol yeah I need to get my old carcass into top gear eh 😀
  18. Pretty much maxed out the mill today, Customers Ash and Elm.
  19. Spoken like a true Jock 😂I thought it was a 0-0 draw !!. Football bores the tits off me Mull, now watching England get humped by Scotland at the rugby 🙄that’s painful.
  20. Scottish football fans arrive all kilted up with nowhere to go APPLE.NEWS The Tartan Army descends on London today to meet the auld enemy amid criticism that there... You’d have thought that the London mayor might have considered fan zones !!.
  21. I am Les that’s my mates, I’ve still got an 880 and standard Alaskan set up although I must admit that 881 is a cracking tool, Panther still for sale bud.
  22. Some cracking Elm up in Inverness today, 881 and Panther 60 plus a chance to have a play with mates new 500i 👍
  23. Guy I’ve supplied to in past Les, he’s a client whom wants Birch for a particular project 🤷‍♂️
  24. Hi All looking for a bit of advice ref some Birch planks for a customer, he’s wanting a load of 125x25, 125x50 and 100x50 !!. Never had any call for it in the past so looking for some guidance on the price please 👍 cheers Dave
  25. Not even worth getting worked up over bud. Just have to do the best you can and in my case I try and teach a good set of ethics to my kids. I do think the current status quo is as vulnerable as it has been for a long time. Covid has unfortunately shown the powers that be how easy a population can be manipulated and how compliant most will be.
