• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

Sandpaper user manual...

And above all, make sure you do not confuse sandpaper with Andrex
When I were a lad there was no such thing as Andrex. News of the World had more than one use. They think recycling is a modern trait ;):)
 
There was a case some years ago, I believe it was the '80s, in the United States where an individual bought a welder and welding rods from a supplier and injured themselves using them and took the supplier to court as there wasn't adequate warnings that one could be injured from using a welder and they won the case.

Since then, suppliers charge a "hazmat fee" on top of all orders, and it's usually a flat rate whether you're just buying one thing or a thousand, so it makes smaller purchases non-economic. The premise is that since you're paying a hazmat fee, so you should be fully aware that what you're buying is hazardous and could injure you.

I suppose it's not dissimilar to the new EPP license for purchasing and handling hazardous chemicals here such as battery acid, £40 a year for the privilege!
 
My chainsaw manual warns me not to put my hands on the chain whilst it’s running.
It’s good advice and would never occurred to me otherwise.
