  1. Past hour
  2. @Abbey CIt is perfect for rough undulating ground, not so good for formal bowling green type lawns. in fact I will probably being using mine tomorrow.
  3. Good experienced climber around Oxfordshire paye £40-45k
  4. Not heard them recently on the radio etc, so toobed them. https://youtu.be/6tbSCwXlI8o?si=Ltox_soNbqpyi13C
  5. Good luck finding a church of Scotland pile down there mukkah
  6. Seems that Mr Yaxley Lennon or whatever his name is today, doesn't learn...reminds me of someone 🤔
  7. Today
  8. Absolutely, for reductions. Repollarding lime, or reducing conifer hedge though - just lots and lots of cuts under 1.5". No need for power but light saw that doesn't have a pull cord.
  9. That’s what I thought. No rain since I did it before the last two weeks.
  10. In that case you're back to the general rule of climbing gear - if in doubt bin it. It's not worth risking yourself to save a few quid.
  11. Just try one they are not cheap but a lot of steel fixers use them no pilot holes and drill straight through 20mm thick steel you need high powered impact 1/2 or 3/4 drive and plenty of cutting grease it’s a easy tool to use especially up in a cheery picker I’d link a video but haven’t a clue how to
  12. I've had alot of mates run entecs , timberwolfs ,gravely ,tp lindana ,jensen, pezzolato, greenmech , kwickchip .. alot of the tw machines have alloy fans to eject the chip.. The are alot of decent refurbished machines for under that budget ..its knowing what your looking for ...would nt buy tw probably not nor would I buy green mech. I'd only buy European, better built like ts,lindana ...the pezzolato I have is alot better built than the current machines . And like it or not where I didnt come into the career later on in life ive seen machines come and go , all you want is a basic machine that's lightweight,that also you can unjam should it get jammed up...and basic so easy worked on. Only reason the isn't more European machines is due to a price ..id need to look at what ever I purchase next ..ie spares But alot of machines are built down to a price now.....
  13. Need training , try lbs training Wellington.... he's ex forces,served in Afghanistan and teaches , really good teacher ...and whilst i was updating the were 3 service personel on the same course ...
  14. Hindsight is a wonderful thing 🙂
  15. I live in Norway mate,most people's gardens are pretty wild on the west coast. Plus the cost of dumping chip is pretty high
  16. I wouldn't blame either of these, rather a combination of cutting back too far in the past and branches being shaded by the tree that was removed. What is dead, is dead. Conifer like that has no buds on old wood, it won't sprout back from the bottom so they will always grow like lollipops. I'd take them out, surprised whoever took the other tree out didn't recommend it. As above laurels not a bad shout, otherwise Thuja, maybe yew. There's no magic, fast growing to cover the windows sooner means more work maintaining in future.
  17. Terry Reid, He was chosen originally by Jimmy Page as the vocalist for Led Zeppelin, but he couldn't accept due to previous commitments,Reid recommended Robert Plant who was in Band of Joy, and Hobbstweedle. the rest as they say,, is history. Terry Reid, British musician championed by the Rolling Stones, Jimmy Page and more, dies aged 75 | Music | The Guardian WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM Known as ‘Superlungs’, Reid turned down the role of frontman in Led Zeppelin and...

    PayPal

    Personally, I would set up a Paypal account. I use Paypal regularly to buy and sell things. I would be reticient to use it as a soul source of payment, but it has its moments. Just add on any merchant fees to your fee.
  19. Brother broke his shooting stick Made a new stick from elm but it was too bendy so made this one out of ash. Tested my sowing skills on the leather
  20. The unloading was really no bother. The loading is what killed me. It probably wouldn't have fitted on a tipper without massive greedy boards, which a luton in effect has. Character building stuff.
  21. Time Left: 6 days and 15 hours

  22. I've heard the advice that you shouldn't be selling this job; you should be selling the ten after that. Which does sound good but is quite open ended.
