There is additional grant payment of £5.82for stakes and binders. It doesn't cover it but it helps. Plus should the grant be 100% or should the landowner actually have to pay something . Anyway that's a whole new topic

Good morning, just having breakfast then off to sit on a digger followed by housework! I might stay on the digger longer.........

Morning all. Up at work o'clock on a Sunday for no reason, not ideal. Didn't do much yesterday and plan to do as little again today, although I may push myself to have breakfast at the cafe because I'm worth it. Thoughts briefly turned towards holidays yesterday. Our friends have suggested a return to Normandy which would be lovely, but her friends in Germany have been hinting they want tree work done. I quite fancy Germany. Have a good one folks.

At least that proves he's not a Muslum pervert😁

Who would you put your money on?

Most folk start out doing risk surveys, I did, over 20 years ago. You then work up to planning, subsidence, mortgage, decay detection, etc. Then eventually expert witness if that’s your thing. I actually like doing risk surveys again now so kind of come full circle. 5837 is good but if you do it properly it’s pretty time demanding. Most companies churn out generic rubbish though. I don’t know why, they take time but they are not rocket science. I assess them for an LPA as an external consultant as they don’t have a TO. Most of the ones I see are pretty shocking, not all. I worked as planning TO for 13 years as well and that was the same story. If you do them right you will get a steady flow of work as you will get a reputation of being no hassle. I.e. you don’t get objections from the LPA. That is good news for architects and planning consultants. If you have any questions, feel free to ping me an email. Cheers Chris

He's matched up against a smaller and less experienced guy, who is still a knockout machine, I'd like to see him (fury) win. I don't think he'll ever get the upper hand on Usyk if it ever comes round again.

I'm not so sure, he's looking fit.

for his fight on the 11th yes as it be a easy one for him to start with,,

I think not. Usyk took his soul. He should quit while he's behind.

OK, I'll ask again, is he good enough?

Yes 11th i think,,

Isn't he fighting in April?

He’s a very good businessman. He’s spent his career dodging AJ though (who apparently whooped him when they were amateurs).

Exactly this. Most publications are easy to find in a digital format online. (xxxxxxxx.pdf) When I started surveying/consultancy I found a local firm and mostly did the data capture for them while soaking up what happened afterwards. Then I adapted it to my own business model.

Thanks I'll check out West Berkshire website. Yes I felt the course left me with a lot still to learn. Was only 1 day I'm going to have to try to get involved with other arb surveyors and try to get some experience that way. I work as a tree inspector for a county council currently, but it's all just risk assessment, no planning stuff.

This probably doesn't belong in this thread as I didn't cook it. Duck, fat and some beans in a tin. Well I hope thats what it was as my Polish isn't that good.

good enough for what ??, he will have a few fights and possibly get another shot at a tittle, but i think if he meets Usyk again i think the result will be a repeat of the first 2, i would like to see a Fury v Joshua fight or Fury v Dubious, so far i think Dubious has put on the best show with Usyk, others may say different,,

I saw two large squabs this week, must have hatched in January! We left them alone but it was a surpise even tho pigeons are at it all year round..

Think you'll find Chester is more down to it's local availability of oak, places like Delamere and the earl of Chester owning lots of it. Bricks were a later material mostly at sea/harbour areas especially as empty ships needed ballast and bricks were cheap.

“cage work” which I’d never heard of before, seems to be a specifically Irish usage. I don’t think Dublin’s much wetter than Chester. Is the survival of timber buildings lower in places of later economic booms? The wool towns of east Anglia have wonderful timbered houses built during the greatest prosperity of those towns, whereas Dublin and london were great commercial and administrative centres and were rebuilt. Paris knocked down its medieval city in the 19th century. And london had a fire of course.
