  1. You're right, would be helpful if it said at the beginning you were getting a line up in slow motion and to pay attention.
  2. Done. I'm wondering if Peds was a touch impatient... To begin with it cycles through several faces, very slowly, then after it gives you a sound test, once you've confirmed the sound works it goes back through the pictures while naming the people. At the end it shows the pictures with a choice of 3 names and you remember who's who. Edit. Bit like first day on a new site, introduced briefly to lots of ugly people and you remember one or two names that stand out.
  3. This is not the mindset I need as I ready myself for an hour with Ying, someone talk about russian tractors from the 80's please!
  4. Cheers for the heads up Les but I just won't have the time, got my non running top handle to take to the dealer which is far more important!
  5. Morning all. Clear skies and a touch of frost this morning, gritters out last night. Got a Thai massage this morning, can't wait! Have a good one folks.

  7. Very handy it having a handle for left handed use as well as right!
  8. I presume Aristotle was Botty C's attempt at another pseudonym, quickly spotted by the boss (possibly using the same location and avatar wasn't a clever move), but what's Mr Wick got to do with it?

  10. Bet it was the best teamwork they ever accomplished, joint escape and evasion from the ferret!

  12. You're right. Up until recently I'd have used a Stihl 150 but I left the company, currently it's just whatever small jobs come along done with my own collection of equipment. Saw wise I'm a weekend warrior with a topper (not running) and a mid range groundsaw.
  13. Bang on, when you're dragging one around on a harness you want to keep the weight to a minimum.
  14. Re-topping Leylandii for a mate today. By 11am my t540 started playing up, after lunch it'd start (eventually) with choke but died as soon as it got revs so gave up with it. As I was grumbling about using a bigger saw my mate produced his battery saw, has it in his pickup for making small branches he finds when shooting pickup size to take home. I gave it a go to please him and bugger me, it finished the job on a battery and a half! I am prepared to be ridiculed. And a couple of interested spectators...
  15. Was readying myself for shame, turned out a game of two halves though.

  17. Morning all. 9c and dry thankfully, off to top connies today. 35mph wind and rain forecast for the afternoon so that's motivation to crack on, suspect I'll come home wet though. Have a good one folks.
  18. The name's Bolam, Mark Bolam. Licence to saw.
  19. Neutrino Morning all! Have a good day folks.

  21. For those of a glass half full outlook, on two occasions recently I've gone outside and it hasn't been raining for a few minutes, and when it started again it smelled like summer rain. Might be the new way of telling the seasons, what the rain smells like.
  22. Enjoying this thread Mick, nice one. Finding once I've done the days offering myself it's quite engaging to look at other members results and try and work out their guesses/thought process too.
