    Logs

    Think the confusion lies in the wording. To me they're only logs when they've been processed to a size for stove/fireplace, until they've been processed it is timber or unprocessed arisings. Suspect that as the OP has a registered tip site they mean timber or arisings. People regularly get unprocessed arisings from us, either collecting themselves from site or we will tip a load (to suit us) in return for free/eggs/veg/refreshments/pocket money etc. Has to be said, the chicken people with abundant free range eggs to offer and the community market garden charity with beautiful veg for us are our first thought when we have something they'd like.
  5. An airline is the first thing I'd ready if you're doing any maintenance or cleaning, on a daily basis I've a choice of two tractors and a unimog that all have their own airlines, such an asset. The time saved when cleaning a saw for example is notable. Thinking about the past when there was no more than a bag with a selection of brushes, rags and scrapers for stuff 😞
  6. Morning all. Bitt miffed to wake early this morning, one chance of a lie in. Was up and at 'em yesterday to help my mate sort his chimney, another mate dropped scaffold for us in the morning and we had it done and dismantled again by evening. Stripping it down was interesting, when the top rails were off I was feeling quite exposed, far less comfortable than being on spikes at that height taking a top, and I'd already taken to free climbing the outside to get up and down rather than the ladder as it felt far better. What you're used to I suppose but strange how the mind works. I've a lot of time for Igor Mick, some good memories of the stuff you've said about him on here, particularly one night when he had the wanderlust and I remember how frustrated you sounded, pacing around the house while awaiting his return! All the best to the wee bugger, I'd say he's a bit of an arbtalk legend! Have a good one folks.

  8. As above, just soap and water then an airline. If that doesn't remedy the issue then I'm thinking of a replacement.

  14. Who knows, all I can say is he was very good at her job! I am kind of missing them.
  15. That was the strangest thing, one moment a duplicate or twin Morning Register thread appeared, then there were none.
