Keeping occupied at home without a drone

I had a few more I sold on gumtree last spring.

2 Stihl HS85 and an HS45.

Just clearing out some other shit, mainly cardboard and beer cans so I can see my workbench again.

Cock it! Got dibs on the buggy if you change your mind.

Keeping busy getting rest of brambles out, and dealing with the rats that have taken up residence where they were!
Here’s my plan in action:-
Long tube down first hole and seal the hole, as the gas starts coming out of the other holes so I seal them until I can no longer smell gas :thinking:
Turn gas on full and sit back with a cuppa.
1/2 hour and turn off gas, will retested tonight.
I wanted to ignite the last hole but missus threw a wobbly, could have been fun :japanese_ogre: :rofl: :japanese_ogre: :rofl:

Always better to apologise rather than ask permission - job gets done. :slight_smile:

Can’t you use petrol? Put a tube through with holes in it. Then use a funnel to pour in the petrol. My dad made me siphon petrol out of his allegro when I was a kid to do something similar to this to an underground beehive on his allotment.

Done that with a wasps nest once it did the job lovely, trouble is we have quite a thick hedge behind and it was tinder dry so not so good on this one.!

That’s feckin’ hilarious !

So after retiring last year at this time I thought it was about time I sorted out all my old work tools and the multitude of things I have amassed over 28 years running my Property Maintenance business.
So ,10 hours a day for 3 weeks, all the tools sorted in their correct places, literally 1,000s of Screws, Nails, Rawlplugs ,sorted.
100s of Drills and Chisels, Sharpened.
Masses of Stanley Fatmax Boxes now full of just about everything and anything from panel pins to plumbing fittings.
and guess what?, I probably won’t use any of it !!!.
Ah well, better than doing nothing during the day I suppose.
