Hippo's latest activity

Can get cheaper than that which will munch quite big twigs/branches. But yes bags of chippings are easier to handle :) Great fire starters to:). J

I shall be going off for a 3 day cycling trip to Cambs next month. It has been a rather sudden decision. So I am scrambling to get the delta trike "match fit". The seat fabric has mostly perished and I need to replace it, but they no longer...

I got a quarter of a bucket after two years, I was burning mostly old pallets though and they burn very hot and clean

... I had our chimney swept last week. It had not been done since the log-burner was installed 5 years ago and the chimney liner installed. I was rather surprised at the amount of pure black soot that was pulled out of the liner. Easily 2...

Afternoon all, done all the fluids in the Disco. Hand brake cable & speedo cable to fit oh & the flippen track rod end has a stripped nut & the threads are damaged id forgot about this when I took it apart. I think i have one in the shed. I...

Do you want some more Marjon got thousands of them

Nah. An FL can't even make it through a small puddle without falling to bits :p

Get a chipper only about £600 worth every penny

Bit like a FL then 😯

Flipping hot here again today. Pool up to 25 and climbing. Clearing the pine branches I had to cut off the trees that make the western boundary when I was putting up the fence two years ago. I hoped they would have rotted down a bit but nope...

Eye has just re wotched the titan sub telly program on bbc eye player. The company were filming their activities fer history and advertising. So yer get to see the mistakes like choosing to only fit 4 of 18 bolts to hold the end on. End came oft...

Mornin Dull and warm here Sunflowers still climbing skywards, look like being a success this year Might polish the Freelander while it's a dull day 🤔 Meantime another brew is needed Stay cool and dry all :) Edit. suns just come out :D

Morning All. :D Another scorcher looms. :) Have a great day. :)

Evening all, ive been a tad busy to spend some time on here lately. One of the lads tonight went to launch his boat..as he was going down the slipway I noticed the pin was out the towbar & shouted """The Pi"........ oh well, by then the boat...

We had a king Charles Cavalier that would do anything for a guzzle of beer! And a cocker that lovd tea!

I'll start them on Bombay Mix and work up to chillies and hotter spices. They'll need a daily ration of lager too. :cool:

Chickens love eating herbs so I bet thay would eat curry powder mixed with grain , bit like a red factor canary just a yellow bird but you feed it with red pepper and you get a red bird

I'm sure you could get a start-up grant for that!! gives a new twist to "Chicken Tikka Masala" (If that is how you spell it!!)

Now that has given me an idea. Chickens fed on curry sauce ----- 😁

I have to admit that, like présalé lamb, (delish if you can afford it) the idea of feeding a bird on Paxo for a while, then cooking it and eating it, might be interesting. I wonder if they would eat it though? (All bollix of course!)

Afternoon 31c here, air con struggled sat in traffic on motorway, home in front of fan now with a brew

Adjusted that for you 😁

Morning all! another extremely hot day, predicted to get up to 39 today. Pool cleaning to take place. (CBA yessdi in the heat!). Have a nice day! :):):)

We don't eat turkey, or chicken at Crispmus!! Anyway their new owner will likely give them presents! 🤣 🤣 🤣

Morning All. :D Another scorcher it appears. :) No plans for today. Have a great day. ::D

Mornin Dull start but we'll be roasting by dinner time no doubt Up early goin shopping at the famous Bury Market :) Must give me sun flowers a drink first Stay cool all 🌞🌞
