    Chickens?

    I hate the bastards . Get someone in with a night scope and a decent air rifle .
  3. Top version ! 👍
  4. Hard work tasks i tend to use stihl asa20 cordless secateurs, stihl gta26 cordless chainsaw pruner and loppers. Rest i try to use hedge trimmer. Hedge trimmer design is not really for hard tasks (thick branches). But we are testing the equipment limits all the time.

  7. Any help identifying this fruiting body hosted on Sorbus intermedia would be very welcome...thanks.
  8. Its a shame that you didnt emmigrate,it would have increased the IQ of both nations.
  9. We are hosting a TRAQ Course delivered by Guy Watson - 2 days with a half day assessment, delivered in person in the beautiful setting of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh's Inverleith gardens.

  10. a tripod ladder isn't essential - same as it isn't essential to change from using a family car to provide a hedge cutting service. A 12ft tripod goes inside the roof of a LWB Transit, or strapped on any pick up/ tipper. But a dedicated vehicle is a serious investment. Especially if you can't have an older one due to LEZ.
  11. Apparently it’s a great app, but I already know what they are. 👍
  12. I'm sure that the class would enjoy it anyway.
  13. Good Morning All.
  14. Hopefully makes the difference.. I got about 8miles from home and had to ring for a fire extinguisher as I thought it was going to burst in to flames !! Local Valtra mechanic said straight off it’s the brake servo.
  15. I dont use file holders, free hand ......
  16. Yesterday
  17. Royalties can be paid directly to our PayPal account thanks. That applies to Mr WD40 too.
  18. Ok then, Perhaps this really isn't the best of examples, but last month, I did a fallen tree -blocking minor road type of job. The unfortunate tree owner was blissfully unaware that their tree had just collapsed, across the access road to the local golf club and some neighbours houses. I explained the situation to them, and charged the princely sum of £180, for clearing vehicle access, that same evening. It was half a mile from home.. The following day, I texted a quotation for approx £900 to cover the full clear-up, with suggestions for local tree consultants, to give a report on their other roadside trees . Both invoices were paid promptly by a very happy new customer, with the strong likelihood of some future work, too.. Sorry about the photo, seems like there's some issue with uploading the same. After 5 attempts at reducing the size, we'll just have to live without it !
  19. Love it! I’ve recently got a 79 series - will hopefully see me out! 😂
  20. I’ve bought a few bits through ARB Surplus recently, and it’s been solid. Listings were clear, comms were quick, and everything arrived exactly as described. It's great having a space where gear changes hands among people who actually use it. Way better than taking a gamble on random marketplace sellers. Would definitely use it again if something else pops up.
  21. yeah - severe drought years seem to cause a lot of movement on their own.
  22. Machines have been earning their keep these last 3 weeks since we had a storm.
  23. Thanks,
  24. I use steel on the end of my climbline to make it easier to throw my main line, it's more like a throwball and carab all in one 🙂
  25. Anyone had any experience with the fae mulcher - it’s to go on a 8t machine. TIA
