Tidying up after opening a few drains

Crane larvae aka leatherjackets, bad lil fuc43rs

Xc weather app for smartphone or tablet, it really is excellent

I have a plague of it and I can't seem to find a suitable herbicide. Cutting it does knock it back a bit but won't kill it. I think it's in the knotweed family

I'd safely say so. I live in a very remote area where the electrical infrastructure is fairly primative. I know of power surges in my area which have damaged cordless phones, set top boxes etc but I have had the homeplugs for a few years no hassle.

I use a set of TP link network powerline adapters / homeplugs. Fantastic gadgets. Plug one in beside router /modem, plug 2nd one (WiFi unit) into any plug socket coming from the same breakers / trip switches. Gives me WiFi in the sheds, garden etc. They work better if plugged straight into...

I have a batch of replacements and 1 is starting to concern me. She is BB / AA / with a bit of Sim in her too, 26 months old, approx 600 KG, AI'd six weeks ago. A stranger could walk up and rub her generally, she has no fear of humans. Except 3 times she has kinda frightened me out in the...

I give my land a fast roll with an empty land roller in October. It helps control the leather jackets as it seals off their air tunnels. I still have some dursban but don't need it atm

The old stock were made of cast iron, they saw harder times.

The swamp master

I gave it to a local welder / wizard who does bits for me now and again. He got the bolts moving and tightened them up. I know an airgun was involved. Then he welded the lot together.

That's a round axle model chief, I reckon they are different but cheers anyway

(Brute force and ignorance) My plan is to buy a new bracket / support and steep the pedal in diesel to free it before attaching it to the new...

What kind of herbicide might kill it? Without killing the grass

I'm starting to think it's called redshank / jesusplant

2,4D? RBH? I'm sorry I don't know what those are 😳 The area in question is wet for a few months of the year. The field was sprayed with Mortone a few years back for rushes, it put this unknown weed back but didn't seem to kill it.

I have a plague of these, does anyone know what it is or what herbicides will kill it?

The last photo.. Do the long numbers mean anything?

I've came across these weights recently through the classifieds, they all fit and will do the job rightly. I'm intrigued as to which Tractors they might have originally been for.

How will a grinder help? I can cut the heads off the bolts or slice in between the two parts. Neither will loosen the seized threads inside.
