You can trust metal but would defo need to know the providence of any fabric safety gear If a mate that I trust said you “can have this x year old harness that has not taken a decent fall as I’m too old/fat/ won lottery “ then I would
  2. I hear it only works if you have a mullet

  11. I thought you had been fraped there!
  12. Why not for groundies???
  13. I would doubt they were insect bites unless you were asleep with skin exposed for a decent length of time to get so many. More likely folliculitis. Self limiting and harmless. Hot tub or dirty water exposure??Also could be scabies

  22. What damage do spikes do to hardwoods? Would introduced disease merely be cosmetic or can it kill a mature tree? Not thinking about commercial damage to the timber
  23. I think he did well felling that wot with his stepladders and the chainsaw he found abandoned in someone’s shed
