  1. Bought and Brought.
  2. I'm certain I saw on here somewhere that brash (after chipping obviously) is making £24/tonne at the moment. Can't find the post or link tho. Any Idea? Thanks.
  3. Yeah I think there is a Pfanzelt on Moray estate. Scott Burton of SB Forestry is your man.
  4. You've made my day. That 1000% sums up my Mrs. 🤣🤣
  5. Hi All. Thinking of letting out a former dairy which measures 70' deep by 30' wide. No electric, water etc, just a plain concrete floor. Tenant wants it for timber storage / light sawing. Absolutely clueless. Any hint of business rates on this is a killer I think. Whatya reckon? Thanks.
  6. A "For Sale" sign flew down the road like an aeroplane and smashed into a parked car. Must have been an almost 100 metre flight! Wild.
  7. There are a number of grid watch websites; this one and another are permanently on my desktop. And the edf Nuke live 😀 Price per megawatt hour will generally mirror interconnect imports / exports. National Grid: Live GRID.IAMKATE.COM Shows the live status of Great Britain’s electric power transmission network
  8. Interesting thread. I used to work in Power Station Industry before I retired. I think Hartlepool and Heysham are both offline atm for steam valve checks - unscheduled. Ratcliffe on Soar (currently at 65% output) needs to stay - that is seriously obvious.
  9. Ah that's good. My firmness of comment was motivated by care rather than disrespect. There's a good fb page called firewood banter or some such name that is pretty helpful too.
  10. Cancel the order for the splitter. Unless you're talking of only doing one lorry load a year? In which case, wasting your time buying in, even at that marginally lower price. My most serious concern however is you not knowing the answer to the question of how many ibc crates a ton (of what wood?) would be filled. Lorry loads to crates is irrelevant as there are various lorry sizes. Are you buying hardwood/softwood, ash or sweet chestnut? Processor size or oversize? You need to get a handle on all this before spending a bean or contemplating a business.
  11. Yeah I had a blower motor that would only run at speed 3. Changed the separate resistor but made no difference. Changing the whole blower inc mounted resistor thing and voilà
  12. Whereabouts are you roughly? Ta
  13. I know by the start of December we'd had approaching 1000mm since the start of the year. 750mm is normal for here so it's probably likely that we've had pretty much 50% extra by the end of '23.
  14. Ask for a white one as opposed to an amalgam one....
  15. What else do you expect from the New European?! Pure Starmerite Shite. Ftr, no opinion about Michelle Moan, I bet she does 🤣
  16. What would you expect to pay / charge per day for an 8 tonner with good splitter on it? I'm looking at a Blacks one from Fuelwood. 👍
  17. £210 for 1.8 cube is very reasonable (£117 per cube). Nearer £145/cube here.
  18. Google maps on my phone, Waze etc etc thinks I am in Edinburgh. I'm actually on the train near Birmingham! What's that all about?! I'm not on WiFi either. Bizarre. Done all the usuals - restart phone etc etc. Any ideas, thanks.
  19. Or thermally transitioned to the gas and vapour phase. Except for bones and teeth.
  20. The Beautiful South. 🤮🤮🤮
  21. Definitely not. Blimey. Only a trip down the rabbit hole. I'm a perfect example. Brother in law has had all the jabs and boostas and is constantly ill, and currently with covid which has floored him for the 4th time. I'm not jabbed at all. Never had covid. Been in close proximity to a roomful of live covid sufferers for hours on end. Never got it.
