Having had the joy of using a Ryobi circular saw once, I am in considerable pain having read this. Fantastic!
Thanks David. Cheered up my evening.
Yeah but the poor guy only has a tractor to drive over it with - maybe somebody should lend him a 101??
I do like what you can buy (and sell) on Ebay tho!

Nothing worse than buying something that doesn't do what its supposed to do. Had a Bedford Van once...
Actually that links to "adfarm.mediaplex.com" then to Ebay
Not too sure I like the sound of that!
At least it's a _big_ tractor .. ;)
Oh, sorry about that. TinyURL has always been "clean" in the past. They must have introduced some dodgy adware scam to pay the bills.

Nearly as bad as our Commer Camper. It was like doing the time warp.
You lean to the left.
We used to drive along with the kids singing Commer Commer Commer chameleon.........
Happy days...

To reply, remove my appendix
The seconds must have simply flown by..... ;)
I use makeashorterlink.com as unlike tinyurl it tells you where it is going to send you *before* it sends you there, a much safer option IMHO.
I've avoided it because it uses 20 characters up right for starters, but I'll use it in future.

Not sure if TinyURL are to blame here, like you say, they have always been clean, and I've just tried making a few links, and they go direct, not via adfarm.
Total classic , brightened up my day 100% Cheers GGJ

just as likely that the end-site is adfarmed, lots of stuff with graphics hosting and the like is.
