Engcons are s**t- waste of money..

Edit- especially if they have a gripper fitted.
Funny you say that...... after the initial excitement Im not so sure either tbh ...thought it was great in the beginning but not so sure about the return on them.
Spend a lot of time spinning it round instead of just getting on and picking stuff with the gripper that you could of simply slid into the bucket.
Dont think I'll put one on my next machine.

Ok I'll start
Orange diggers are the best nothing else will do.
Blue battery tools are best nothing else will do

Green trucks are best nothing else will do.

I'm right and your all wrong.

😝
I agree 😆

Wouldn’t bother either, takes all the skill out of the job, amateur

There are some good ones about now. Used to prefer Murphy's but rarely see it now
I'm lucky enough to have a few very good local breweries on my doorstep. Langhams is the closest, really a micro brewery, but since taking on a new brewer a few years back they've shot up in my estimation. Interestingly this brewer previously worked for another local brewery by the name of Ballards. Both Ballards and Langhams (especially Ballards, who are now defunct) at the time made pretty mediocre beers. Since he started at Langhams, it's like he's been 'let off the leash'! A whole range of simply incredible beers.


The larger local one is Hepworth- situated in a new build complex they brew for a lot of other people, and their warehouse shop is well worth a visit. Russian Stout is one of my favourites, more a barely wine than a stout but delicious. They do some pretty good alcohol free beers too, including a milk stout.

I just don't get the hype about Guinness. Anyone can add nitrogen to a pint to make it 'oooh, so creamy!'. Behind this cult-like facade of marketing and special dispensing machiney lies an insipid, mass produced beer with no flavour.

This is what I think about Costa. A lot of hype and expense for a pretty piss poor cup of coffee.

Had a nice gin from a distillery place down your way. Lovely summer afternoon down by some nice natural pools. Slipped down a treat
