Sounds like we only need a few more? Can we nominate someone to start opening a dialogue with Archant?
-
Saying...'sign me up' Sunflower!

Julia Dunbar is the person who I think gives the lessons Grumpy, I know she does home visits and I think she does a group class in Dun, I don't have her details but I'll Pm them to you. She has an excellent reputation.
Have a great time here...and enjoy the winter!

What a fine man you are Leo!
So now we number six...
I can soooo sense the 'I wanna do it but don't dare' lurchers...I learned years ago that the only thing to fear about fear is fear itself, so what are y'all waiting for?
Oh & I can also hear the frantic messages being passed to Archant by their watchers here...perhaps we should allow an office bod from that lot in?

I thought we only had four definates? Did I miss something?
Anyway, I don't recall actually volunteering for February, being starkers in those temperatures isn't going to do much for the reputation.
If we ever actually get there, what's the charity? I vote either kids or my Africa Twin fund.

I didn't ask for December either Chris, it was just an interim plan based on Pads list. Feel free to change it as you wish.
I'm certainly ok with the kids charity idea.

Bugbear
Will you be posing on your bike or standing next to it? And will you really be wearing only your helmet and nothing else?
Oh, Bugsy, the thought of it is enough to make a girl sigh...................

Guess it depends how sensitive the camera is?

You can hide behind the holly (careful tho)...I got some hoooge chainsaws to hide behind...just as well![:-))]
Just need seven more nutters now.
-
Twinks...are you declaring your participation officially?
-
Why thankyou for the offer Anton, you never know...
-
She's not my partner...she's my 'friend', and she's Polish/French & wouldn't understand it anyway...but if she did I'd be dead meat![:D]
So you gonna get your kit off for the calender Tresc? All that gardening, you must be well 'ard!
-
I see the humorous side of the term Tresc...you, rage? Not scared![:D]
-
Probably Tony, you reckon they think like that? My sis lived with a bloke, left him then came out! %aybe she'll do the same?
Hey Tresc, Bunnyboiler is in Paris at the mo so there's a few days to get it all done!
Can I give you my new addy Pads & go away on tour for a few days?[:D]
-
It's meant to be one of the most stressful things in life but the answer is simple...make sure there are no women around! [:D]
I'm moving next week and couldn't be more chilled!

The MS 240 is a good little workhorse Anton & don't be shy about the electric saw...they're great! The longer the bar the harder the saw has to work to pull the chain through the timber and the less power is delivered to the chain, really 35cm is the longest bar the 240 should have, imho, but you'd get away with 40cm I guess. To give you an idea, I have a 45cm bar & 'doctored' chain set up on an MS460 (76cc & mean with it!) and even that sometimes moans a bit!
I thought the 240 ran on .325? But it might be 3/8 picco, the 3/8 picco micro is a great chain too...I'm not a saw mechanic tho! The Stihl Rapid Micro .325 chain is a superb chain and suitable for the saw, depending on guide bar length (knives have blades Anton). Different chains have different performance characteristics Anton, it's quite a subject. It took me a few years before I really got to grips with balancing how much chain 'power' a saw could handle, chain types, bar lengths, sharpening angles for different jobs & species of timber etc. It might be better to pop into your dealer & ask his advice?
Don't forget to check bar & sprocket for wear and if you don't know already, learn how to sharpen properly. Be careful with those fallen trees, there's plenty of traps ready to get you just when you least expected it...as no doubt you know by now?
Good luck...can I come and play?

What saw/saws are you running Anton?

In my defense I have absolutely no idea of the sex of Sunflower.
-
So you gonna get your kit off Twinks? Bet JK's practicing her pose right now[:D]
-
It'll be whatever the people who agree to take part in it want it to be...only rule is no clothes and bits & pieces covered up 'imaginatively'...so who talks the talk & who walks the walk?
-
Sounds like they want to be but need a bit of a shove?
-
So far we have Moggy, Bugbear and myself definately signed up to get our kit off for a calender. I think Pads is in and Sunflower is doing crunches as we type (as yet undecided).
There are no requirements as to age, shape or sex, it's just a bit of fun. I forget which months are taken but I'm sure folk can negotiate.
Proceeds to charity.
Archant to do the piccies and printing (for free), I reckon they can't say no 'cos if they do I'm going to phone up the tabloids and tell them what tight so & so's they are, and anyway, they'll get shed loads of publicity out of it!
God help us when the two Welsh Wenches pick up on this[blink].
Any more takers?
-
Crunchies are definately out if you wanna six pack Sunflower...or if you're a girl, a flat tummy!
This needs a new thread.
-
So are you going to get your kit off then Sunflower?
-
Why not Sunflower? Nothing ventured eh? Welcome to the forum.
So are you officially on board now Pads?
It's not about age, shape, sex or size or anything else Gary...good on ya!
-
Let Archant sort it...imagine the publicity their sales execs would be able to milk from it? Still looking for nine more! Don't think Valentines is appropriate for me Pads, my tool of choice isn't very romantic[:-))]
