The General Wibble Thread

We didn't panic but we did fill up yesterday morning before the hysteria set in.
We can be forgiven, we're driving to the Alps on Saturday.
I hate panic buying...grrr..

That's more like it - proper wibble.

Errrrmmm........ I'm not sure without going out to the workshop (and I'm not that sad). I think it's a Husqvarna 345 with an 18 inch bar? I love my chainsaw. Got padded trousers (blue like snapzzz), a matching orange lid and special gloves. Had to clear a fallen tree so we could get out of our drive in the bad winter 2 years ago. Magic :mrgreen:

Hah !!!!!! Not a real chainsaw man if you do't know your bar size :mrgreen:

But mine is only a 16" McCulloch :cry:

Bet you have a 14lb sledgehammer as well .......

But I have a 30cc brushcutter :mrgreen:
and a 21" walk behind mower......
and a 15" flymo
and a 4hp outboard :D

for the uninitated bedrock and I are playing top trumps with garden machinery .........
He is winning so far
:evil:

Of course I have a sledgehammer.

I don't have a mower fetish though - why do you need three of them? Also you'd be there all day trying to cut grass with an outboard. :)

I hope you have a good time Dids (and manage to find enough petrol!) :D

tuna on toast......yum

:shock:

Holy crud, I just went to see if I could find a garage open and without a queue, and as I drove down the road, I saw a large number of flashing police lights ahead. One of the petrol stations which was empty earlier today, had a tanker delivering fuel. There were in excess of 100 cars all trying to queue ready for when the station opened, and they had completely blocked a main A road. Hence the Police, trying to force everyone to drive on. It was absolutely ridiculous!

I did not bother looking any further, I will just get up earlier and get the bus tomorrow. Screws up my journey, but no option really :cry:
