  1. Past hour
  2. That would be great if that works. No idea how big it might get? I am concerned because it has responded to last year’s cut with such vigorous growth
  3. You ain’t very good at this are you.
  4. Keep family out of this you ****************ing sick obsessed deluded prick.
  5. No interest, the American people have voted, the democratic process has given them the president they voted for. You should maybe be asking the members who post relentlessly about Trump day in day out if they are gonna be there to tell him what they think.
  6. Taking his daughters a long long way away from Trump I notice. Not that he is a danger to young girls of course.
  7. It would probably be OK with a trim. Like most trees though to keep it in check you will need to repeat every few years
  8. I wish it was that easy. That’s why I got a transport consultant to help me. He was working with one of the firms I contract climbed for. At the time I also drove for one firm with DAF 7.5t and towed a big Scheisling. Didnt make a difference.
  9. Recreational climbing is a recreation, no difference really to running or riding a bike around a park, the latter is frowned apon if its a busy public area, at the back of my local park has mountain bike trails. You wouldnt want to come across a pair of elderly walkers whilst bombing down a trail, but if you knock somone over in a predomantly pedestrian area - you'd get the book thrown at you. So the back of a publc woodland is quite acceptable. Chance of seeing anyone else is slim, just be sensible about it, be aware of people around you. My first 7 trees were frends and neighbours and removed them, one was a bit of a hazard tree so had help/reassurance with it. Also was November so doing it in the dark after work to make it more interesting. However they were all fairly basic trees. Theres a lot of parks where the grass around trees is kept long, up to knee or hip level thick grass. People and dog walkers will stick to the path. Those trees are ideal for climbing.
  10. Today
  11. Enjoy the family time. There's also going to be people there that will not be nice to him, you're missing a big opportunity to shout them down.
  12. An invitation to polish his bell would be an instant turn around for you though, g'wan you never know your luck!
  13. Take a mate and go and climb a tree. If someone at a park mutters about bylaws, let them mutter, be polite, explain what you're doing, and explain you'll climb down when you're ready to.
  14. That's a first for you, are you going to have cake or crayons to celebrate?
  15. No I shall be in Northumberland seeing family. I have no interest in seeing the president of the USA on a golf course.
  16. Their system is a lot more regulated compared to the UK in my experience, if you subcontract work from another company they may not v=be able to pay you without the right tax documentation
  17. Looks like the trump supporters are on their way to meet him. Are you going? Donald Trump visit LIVE: Exact time President will arrive in Scotland revealed - Mirror Online WWW.MIRROR.CO.UK Donald Trump is set to land in Scotland this evening for a five-day trip to the UK - he will visit two of his golf courses and meet with Sir Keir Starmer
  18. What a snivelling self-congratulating turd of a man!
  19. Saw this the other day. I already have a MS-RT, but someone here may be interested. I imagine it cost 1000's to convert... 2023 Ford Ranger 2.0 XL EcoBlue 4x4 Rescue / Recovery / Support Vehicle - Melmerby Trade Cars - 01765 803000 WWW.MELMERBYTRADECARS.CO.UK This is a 2023 Ford Ranger XL EcoBlue 4×4 Rescue / Recovery / Support Vehicle.

  20. Last time I had to send my licence in, I took photos etc to make sure they didn’t rescind my permission to drive a traction engine or submarine or whatever. To my surprise, it instead came back with the updated B+E. They must know I’m out there, hard at work turning the wheels of the economy.

  22. Yes I believe that sort of thing happens. It was an unusual case that if you took your test before a certain date you got this entitlement, the law changed and those with the entitlement had to prove that they were using it at the time, I think this involved a letter proving you were a professional driver. If you weren't able to prove it, or like most of use, were unaware of the need to send in documentary proof, you automatically had the note (107??) added to the licence and were downgraded. Then new drivers had to pass the c1+E to be able to pull heavier trailers.

    • USED

    Valtra Valmet 6350 Igland 60 Winch (used for 1 job) Quickie Loader with Grab and Bucket Owned by myself for a few years now being used for winching and yard work. No longer working in the industry so time to sell. Grab has seen next to no use along with the Winch. Bucket is well used. Mud flap missing Front mesh grill has seen better days but I never changed it due to use in the woods just incase. Great tractor, starts instantly and no smoke. I will have it looked over again before sale to make sure all is ok and pass mechanic details onto the potential buyer.

  24. Thanks for the reply, I won’t be planning of climbing anywhere public as in parks etc.. Going to approach farmers land etc.. I do have a couple of jobs to do but I won’t be doing them until I have the correct insurance etc.. appreciate you taking the time to respond, thanks again.
  25. Thanks for the reply. Dead wooding etc seems to be the way to go. i am fortunate to live in an area with plenty of decent trees. Seems like from most peoples reply’s just need to put my self out there and ask around. Thanks again 👍
  26. when I came over as a sole trader in 2010 the UTR number sufficed. And when hiring uk guys that’s what my accountant wanted too (But yeah all company’s no matter size pay/charge vat) no idea what it’s like since brexit, I stopped hiring uk guys around then anyway the only company that comes to mind for tree planting is Magnus Thor AB , about an hour north of Stockholm, see his vans about planting alot. Give them a google the big forest companies seem to sub all the practical work out, just plan the works in house
  27. Probably the best Mussels I've ever eaten. Right on the quay, fresh as. A warm day so the cold larger was perfect to wash it down, brewed next door.
