  1. Glad I never paid for that, think it's shocking that any old rubbish think they deserve ppv these days, I think they should now both retire as bellew is to small to take on any of the real heavyweights and haye has been shite since he became a heavy, have seen more unpredictable fights down the local smelting works and I can get in and have a few beers for a twenty, roll on next weekend for linares ,lomanchenko, I,m away fishing all weekend so will be listening on the radio proper old school
  2. I have two other woodburners in other places and normally only close the doors if they are spitting badly or I,m going out or to bed, but I,ll give this one a go open and closed better to test it to destruction before I fit it in the shed ?
  3. I have been asked I think on here if I had a chimney sweeping certificate once, when I put one of those creosote logs in my fire to clean the flu , there are some truly sad people about mate
  4. It's only going in a shed so not that worried, if it needs it I,ll attach a flange and an adjustable air vent, but if it draws ok through the gaps I,ll leave it
  5. It's a bit of a mock up just to get things going will give it a right good roasting later to see how they fair and if no good easy to put a couple of dabs of weld in, will also only be burning wood which does not reach the same tempature as coal, it's normally take 2 or 3 before I get it right but it's just nice being outside playing with boys things, I get a little stir crazy if I,m stuck in for any length of time ?
  6. For me the one legged argument was just an excuse, it was fine at the start only when he,d already lost did he start falling around, like the broken toe and other excuses they keep throwing out, he lost the fight fair and square in my eyes and the same thing will happen tonight unless he gets lucky with a big shot early doors, a great cruiser that never cut the mustard moving up,and though he may have held a world title as a heavy, he fought and beat the two worst heavyweight champions in history and has probably been given a lot more chances than most other boxers as well, I wish we were bac
  7. I no it's getting warm and we should,nt need a fire, but every winter my man cave is a bit nippy to be out there all day making things so today I started making a little burner ready for next winter here,s the first bit will update as it goes for anyone interested so far total cost about£3 for the hinges and a couple of blades for the grinder, next for a ash pot and grill
  8. Bellew for me as well,, been watching some of there fight build up sparring and training vids on utube and to be honest though haye is looking very powerful, fit and hard hitting he,s also looking a bit slow and showing his age to me, think he might have a shout in the first couple if bellew walks onto a big one but the longer it goes the more I favour the younger man also bellew took a few good shots from haye in the last fight without to much problem, next weekend linares v loma is more for me also can't wait to see what mikey Garcia,s excuse will be if loma pulls off the win for not fight
  9. Settle down the doors look absolutely lovely from my house ?
  10. Your not married to navek are you, this is starting to sound like a bad tradesman blaming the tools' if there's to much paint just stop dipping it in the pot and work the paint into the door a bit more, with good gloss and a good sponge roller you should be able to get an almost spray finish,
  11. The sponge roller is for gloss work, all wood work is grained, but you still paint it with a sponge roller or I do and have never had a problem ?
  12. I think it will come in, in England, but the proper cider makers seem to get a lot of exemptions because it's a bit of a Somerset tradition, i would imaging licences would depend on quantity brewed and how you sell it, some people just put a board up outside the farm and others brew in bigger batch,s and supply local pubs, in the millennium year they were given millions of pounds in grants to replant the apple trees as it was a dying thing so I doubt they will pull the rug out and if shit comes to shove it's very easy to make it yourself as it is just apples, no yeast,no sugar and no chemica
  13. I,d say he has one normal green cat eye and a blind blue one myself and for today's fact the wall eye got its name from days gone by when livestock was sold at market and the white eye was always against the wall so the purchasers could,nt see it, it's a lack of pigment but not usually blind
  14. Without sounding to much like a cynical old fart I think it's more of an age and era thing, when I was a kid growing up on an estate if the baliff,s turned up to take someone's belongings the whole estate would turn out and give them a good shoeing and torch there van, nowadays they make it into a tv show to normalise it and everyone sits behind closed doors laughing at there neighbours misfortune,give people a tiny bit of wealth and they will shit on everyone and anyone to keep it, the modern system promotes the I,m alright jack attitude,, if this situation occured 30 odd years ago, the whole
  15. Looks like pissheads the world over are being robbed already, I,m paying £30 for 44pints of my favourite farmhouse scrumpy direct from the farmer, and 3/4 pints will give you a good little wobble, plus there,s no chemicals involved just pure apple juice so I can count it as one of my five a day win win ?
  16. Steve Erwin, the bloke who done the cat in my house program, the bloke that thinks he's a wolf and anyone else that think they have mastered a wild dangerous animal is just an accident waiting to happen, as soon as he ran the game was on, and it's one of the first and most basic rules of dealing with any dangerous animal don't turn your back and don't start running, whoops
  17. A little word of warning, don't rely on anyone who works there to back up anything you say, it's all good saying yes I,m behind you in the canteen, but when it comes to the crunch look over your shoulder and there,s no one there, better off sticking your phone on record if it's going to get shirtie, ?
  18. Kay I left school barely able to read and right, I done two terms in borstal before moving on to big jail, I,m not saying that because I,m proud of it, but to show you that the value you put on yourself is more important than the value put on you by other people, I,m hard working and punctual as I can be, I own a van or two and will do anything for a days wages and if I have no work I drive round scavenging in skips for things to sell on eBay or weigh in for scrap, I,m normally busyier than I want to be and earn a reasonable living, the only thing holding you back is yourself because life and
  19. Offer the customers a better rate than your company does, bomb out the sick note and you and the other girl earn a bit more wronga and have a few less clients, Bosses are like nappy,s full of shit and always hanging round your ass, better off without them ?
  20. It's only fermented fruit anyway, plenty of glens and woodland to get your stills going, moonshiner,s Scotland bring it on ?
  21. Probably because they have partners and children that just want a pet to walk round the park, why do some people come on here to try and provoke arguments and piss people off I wonder ?
  22. Maybe you need a French bull, could be a language thing, he,s offering the bull out in French and the bull don't no what he,s on about, it's a simple mistake to make mate ?
  23. I understand mate, I,m pretty unemployable if truth be told, so I,ve never had paid hols or sick pay or anything else, I just get payed per job and if I don't like someone I just gel on to the next one, so though I,d tell her to do one and just go, you have to do what sits best with your own conscience and brings the best result for you and your circumstances, good luck which ever route you choose ?
  24. Sadly in boxing everyone apart from the heavy weights seem to fall from memory quite quickly, a lot of younger fight fans won't remember joe calzagie who had an incredible record yet they could all tell you who frank Bruno was just because he was a heavyweight,younger fight fans also seem to be a lot more interested in ufc than boxing these days, my son will sit up all night to watch ufc but has little interest in boxing, though he would probably sit up for an AJ wilder fight, so really the bigger they are the longer they seem to be remembered,
