We live in a looney world Brian :scratchhead: but as they seem thin on the ground thought it was worth highlighting. in case any of our far flung friends were in dire need and had a lottery win.

It was back again the other day and got to £15.00 before being withdrawn as "not reaching reserve".

Ah, one of those eh.

Must be that honest pension fund manager I'd heard rumours of trying to get his clients assets back by selling high :stress:

Conversely, I've just watched in amazement as a couple of folk bid themselves up on a set of Hayter blades (that I was after) which went for well over the buy it now price from several shops - I bought it then ! - My lad Ben has picked up a part time job cutting the grass around our church and graveyard so I bought an old Hayterette last week as some of it is a bit rough, nice condition, changed oil and the air filter, the blades will sharpen up but it cuts pretty well without, just bludgeoning its way through with 5 HP of B&S 4 stroke hardly raising a sweat, I queried with someone recently why mowers suddenly seemed to have bigger engines than before, apparently a big engine running slowly keeps below the noise limits whereas a 2 stroke doing a million RPM costs serious money to silence adequately, now thats what I call eco friendly :scratchhead:

Anyone intending to buy any of Dick Joices former treasures from the Bygones collection at Cheffins on the 16th ?? some nice steam engines included but I've just bought a mower..............
