These firms are full of shit. Greenwashing. you’ll get a mango tree planted in a plantation that was going to be planted anyhow, for profit. or it’ll be a scheme that starts off with good intentions, but there is no aftercare and every tree droughts off. There’s no regulatory body for all this bollocks. No oversight. Don’t waste your money.

Morning all, Fine day here. Straightforward job today, as opposed to yesterday’s that need a magician’s wand.

Morning, suns out and blue sky here

Hi Community members, I seen businesses say things like “we plant one tree for every £10 spent,” and I’m thinking about doing something similar for my online store. How much does it actually cost to plant a tree? I’ve heard it’s around £1 per tree through services like One Tree Planted or Ecologi. Do these services charge VAT? And if so, how do you handle that on your books? Can anyone give ideas or suggestions for my online business....

Enjoy. It is a beautiful City.

i know, it has been like a city sights tour this week!

Morning Folks! On account of a soggy lung, I got a free loft insulation and new boiler from HMG. But I had to empty the loft, amazed at how much crap I 'stored' in there! Plenty of tip trips over the next few days and loads of stuff going on evilbay or market place! Have a good day yourselves! Wife, Runts.

Good morning All 😊

Good Morning Good on you Doug. Q: Shouldn't you be working rather than gadding around sightseeing? :-) Have an easy one.

Morning all. Bleary eyed in the Borders this morning after another long day yesterday. Visited a few more landmarks though. It's possible that today brings a long awaited delivery for us, exciting day, watch this space... Have a good one folks.

🤷‍♂️

with my non tipping trailer for hedge cuttings i would put a tarp down then about a foot of cuttings then another tarp and so on then 2 of us could pull each tarp off in turn. an old waggon driver i new used a double wagon hitch to get extra pull don't know how he did it i had problems doing one even after been shown several times

I would go diesel over petrol any day of the week, they just chip better, petrol seems to lack torque. as said you can’t go wrong with the kubota v1505 in most chippers and pretty bomb proof.. only problem I’ve ever had with one and I’ve had 8 machines with them in is once had to do the crank seals on one machine.

I can see the logic behind an impact driver for something like this, you’re limiting the torque that can be transferred to you, avoiding the whole thing binding up and bogging down. But optimally I’d still go for one of the big 36v drills. The makita twin 18v has more torque and higher speeds than the Milwaukee or dewalt I believe, and is nails. Mines been thoroughly abused and hasn’t skipped a beat.

the above post was from early on, forgot to press the button... anyway , im going to look at a TW230 this week, has around 800 hours and looks ok from the photos , it was this or a Forst st6 which was a lot cheaper what to look out for, any one of two things .. I know engines

hi all thanks for the replies some useful info .. Im still on the fence which way to go, but going to have to make a decision soon .. been thinking .. if the prices of a TW150 was cheaper then id be happy with that, but seems like a lot of money for an old machine , tho I have found someone who sells them fully refurbished , Have seen a fair few Forsts now, some scruffy looking ones, but cheaper than the TW230 about the same price as TW150 .. I have been looking at some TW230 and I prob could stretch to around 10k Something id like to ask is there much init between petrol and diesel ? what would you pick and why ..? thanks ..

thanks for all the replies... and encouragement!!

I keep meaning to put a steel biner on my SRT rope end. Sometimes feel uneasy about sideloading when I'm choking. The weight might be nice for throwing it ahead too.

I am still scratching my head a bit about climbing on a steelie. Can't see that it's not strong enough, just that I've always used ally for climbing, steel for rigging, and never use rigging gear for climbing.

My favourite bit of television on race relations btw. And the whole series is good anyway. It's the same recycled plots as all the other legal drama/comedies like Rumpole, Silk etc, set in the 1990s, with excellent music and pop culture references.
