  1. I thought I did so? But to be honest it’s roots are far deeper than airheads desperate for attention and validation. They just jumped on the bandwagon sitting in a circle drinking soy lattes trying to find the next thing to be offended at.
  2. Keep in mind PayPal does not cover vehicles. Parts yes, vehicles no.
  3. That’s your opinion Eggy and one you seem to have gained from what the MSM tells you to believe. I know you occasionally venture over to Europe and perhaps you venture further afield, but your POV seems to be constantly what you read about in the news….
  4. I suspected as much. As already mentioned it’s a term initially used by those on the hard left who wish to impose their thinking on others and firmly believe in their radical POV. They seen themselves as “woke” from many mainstream POV’s, both left and right but generally and almost exclusively from the right. These wet lettuces have had their “enlightenment” thrown back in their face and what they thought was something to emulate has turned into a term of derision.
  5. Just messing. What a machine, well jealous.
  6. Some stunning logs! Im really looking forward to seeing this in action on day Dave. I feel you could have maybe got a few more logs done today though. 😁
  7. Believe it or not I was cleaning my screen and somehow managed to type and post a one word comment.
  8. I don’t have an endless stream of cash coming in these days mainly due to Covid and needing to quarantine for 10 days before going out on a job, so overtime is all but non-existent just now. But mainly the reason is the constant supply of cheap processor grade logs I was going to be getting had not materialised. I’ll still be getting the odd 20t here and there there though.
  9. Thanks for the heads up. Change of direction now. Bought a log cabin log Molder instead. 😁
  10. As the oak seasons it’s gonna crack and look dry and tired, especially outside. Unless you constantly douse it in oil you’re not going to stop this process from happening, even then I doubt it will do much.
  11. Congratulations Les and well done Beth! My oldest is Beth as well.
  12. I think you just answered your own comments. 🤣
  13. I’m kinda in the same boat. Put a new 280l Cylinder in last year with dual coils. One gravity fed for the kitchen Stove and a back-up for the new oil boiler. Our kitchen stove is on from 07:00 til bedtime so unsure how much logs we need to hear that kinda volume but the radiator the stove also runs is always toasty warm.
  14. Only in you and Stu’s head it seems. If you make a comment either directly or in directly to myself full of vitriol you see yourself as a crusader defending the realm. If I respond in kind I’m somehow upset. 🤣 yet another shining example of your hypocrisy. Anyway, since it’s yourself and your fellow social justice warrior Stu that’s derailed this thread for the last few days can we get back to Brexit, Weatherspoons and Junkie bashing?
  15. Im loving all this attention. Quite flattering really. My own wee following. Anyway, Im more than happy to hear others opinions, you and the other select few in your coven seem completely unwilling to listen to anything other that what you wish to believe. I quite happily accept others will have a differing opinion than me. Yet this is a sub-forum for debate, so we're allowed robust discussions on opinions that differ from our own. Yet all Ive seen the last few days is you and the other usual suspects going absolutely bananas for the views I hold on subjects like Covid. How very accepting of you. A select few have openly voiced what an idiot I am for holding the views on Covid and the Vaccines (words to that effect) but thats ok in your eyes as it aligns with your own POV. Take a look back at some of the posts directed my way in the Covid thread. Where I to have written in such a way Id be instantly banned. Yet you and the other of the famous five seem to feel such personal attacks is justified. Two wrongs dont make a right, open hostility should be treated as such regardless who its from. This new line of reasoning from Stu is quite disingenuous. Creating a strawman that I was attacking mental illness? I never did. I'll openly condemn Junkies and pissheads though, and thats my prerogative. As you say, we should all accept other peoples opinions, thats mine, please accept it. To have him doggedly attack me repeatedly for something he believes Ive done, yet Ive refuted it is another form of abuse. Water off a ducks back to me really. Yet Im now in a position of fending off a few cranks with one hand behind my back for where I to respond in a like manor Id get the book thrown at me. Which I believe is the goading's real aim. Having left you and the others to your abusive posts in the Covid Vaccine thread you and the other usual suspects have jumped on the back of Stu's misguided crusade to carry on where you left off in a completely different thread. So please, carry on with your abusive righteous indignation where you clearly thing the end justifies the means but its beyond laughable that you do not see the rank hypocrisy here.
  16. Ive sold various saws and Mills directly on the Milling sub-Forum, each has sold within days.
  17. I know a guy who has one and also a Rayco Junior. He prefers the Avant Grinder on the bigger stumps and the Rayco on the smaller stumps. He had the Avant plus Grinder at my place and as a skilled operator he made short work of some large stumps. He takes it on a lot of jobs when he’s bringing the Avant but since I’ve not had a play with it Im quite happy borrowing the Rayco.
  18. Again no. I was highlighting a list of benefits brexit has brought or could bring us. If one of the glaringly obvious reasons a price increase somehow touched on a yet nameless member it was purely accidental. The fact that this type of establishment is filled on a daily basis with the types of people I’ve highlighted is hardly unknown. I think you’re adding two and two together here and getting five. You’re letting personal views of me get in the way of a logical debate.
  19. My excessive use of emojis has been well documented of late. Take no heed of them for they are meaningless gibberish. Surely a price rise in the likes of Weatherspoons caused by an increased wage for the workers there is an acceptable price to pay? If a knock-on effect of this price rise is junkies, drunks and bums no longer frequent their establishments and allowing the return of honest working members of the public and their family’s can only be seen as a positive, no?
  20. Well, that’s your opinion. What I was referring to of course is the clientele that Weatherspoons is well renowned for. It’s hardly a secret that the dross of society hang out on a daily basis in places where they have access to cheap booze, since we’re discussing Weatherspoons it happens to be a prime example.
  21. Perhaps the real reason working in the U.K. was not so much the jobs and wages but the access to our benefits system? Now that they’re denied the rights to rape the system working for minimum wage is not any more appealing for them as it is for the supposedly workshy here in the U.K.? If this results in companies all over the U.K. being forced to pay a real living wage to British people then I’m all for that. I’d far rather British people who do want to work being paid a liveable wage to make it worth their while instead of some Eastern European who is entitled to a raft of benefits that is sent to these countries and allows them to live to a far higher standard than those on the same wage could enjoy here in the U.K. It really is a win/win. Money generated in the U.K. stays in the economy. British citizens could be paid a wage that actually entices them off of a life of benefits. Weatherspoons has to increase their prices and it keeps the Junkie Cider swilling families out. Brexit, the gift that keeps on giving.
