Hi everyone Were looking to convert our hilux 2016 double cab into a tipper soon, i just wanted to ask if anyone knows any companies who do conversion around the cheshire area or near about Thanks

That would be facts Oldfeller, not popular with some. The 20 times more likely just doesn’t seem to be registering with some people. As is always the case there’s never any compassion for the young child who was the innocent victim in all this from those same types . They don’t seem to be getting the fact many of these illegals are from a culture that does not respect women or girls at all and does not see the age of 12 in this case as a factor. But that would be those inconvenient facts again.

Little bit like hill farm of sheep is different to barley farm in East Anglia, there's arb from small garden work through to big tree management contracts in London streets. Some of it will suit you and some not, but there's definitely work out there if you're a reliable, conscientious type of bloke. Any decent firm nowadays is using hydraulics to take out a lot of the manual handling, hopefully the next generation of guys will see the benefits of this in less back and knee injuries so career spans can be longer. Also if I was advising myself of ten years ago I'd say embrace modern climbing equipment such as SRT and ascenders , doing that in the last few years has really helped my old shoulders and elbows.

I'd be considering a longer one and a shorter one these days - start a smaller hole as support for the longer bits.

I'd take some just for the challenge now! (though likewise if it doesn't split it goes in the wood for the bugs)

In my experience when they go downhill it's almost free-fall. Never known one to bounce back. It's like an almost complete shutdown of their vascular system.

A weird comment from Trump over the weekend, word to the effect of "I didn't order Epstein to be killed". To be fair, neither did I but that isn't a thought that has ever crossed my mind to make a public denial about it. Thinking further about Trumps best pal, odd isn't it that the prison he died in only has a single CCTV camera that didn't quite point at Epsteins cell, no cameras pointing at the perimeter or gates that would show anyone coming or going, say an hour either side of his suicide - one for the MAGA conspiracy theorists there then, why arn't we being shown those video feeds as well (I'd be assuming any 'killer' wouldn't have been a prison staff member there of course). This story keeps going on and on, longer than the 24 hours press interest I thought it would do.

Not a planning expert but I suspect you're fine on the tree btw. Enjoy it. Plant it far enough inside your boundary that your roots and branches don't encroach onto your neighbours' land as it reaches full size.

As a new business owner, I discovered a VAT calculation issue on invoices. Over the past two months, I have overestimated VAT, resulting in a total excess of ₱20,000-₱30,000. My accountant, who charges a monthly retainer fee of ₱10,000 (plus VAT), did not identify the issue. I'm not sure if they should review these computations or just record them. Can I recover the excess VAT I paid?

Morning, wet through the night but blue sky for now. hatches are battened down, long distance Robo job postponed and a day of not very much. but fingers crossed for some windblown tree work as im bored and skint !

There were rumours they had the CS100 drawings in their office. It isn't overly surprising though, it has been in production for 15 years and arguably the bench mark chipper in 4" gravity feed. We have mentioned the CS100 discharge chute to the GM factory, their swivel is a good design.

Lots of them via the CoS across the Highlands and Islands if you feel the need. I missed out on this one (oiro £30k iirc) a few years ago, close to St Andrews so a very viable let.

Some more local chicken consultants concur and also add that hindquarter feathering is another giveaway. Fluffy roundarses for girls. Sharper thighs for boys.

This thread feels underused. It could be mega useful. Aware it's harder to post things without specific questions/stimulus but anyone feel free to chime in with any little win/loss they've experienced recently out there at the coalface of customer service. As seemingly insignificant as you like. Someone will learn something. Tell you what, let's talk websites. I'm writing the guff for mine atm. I know what most arb websites look like. What have people had on theirs that have caused them grief? What don't you have on there but keep thinking you should add?

KID WITH BASTARD HAIRCUT PRACTICES GETTING SENT HOME FROM SCHOOL NEWS: Klarna Paaymant, a particularly unpleasant 12 year old from Erith has began a grueling training program this week in readiness for being sent home from school for an inappropriate haircut on the first day of term. Klarna’s Mum Pippa, who is a 27 year old mother of 7, clinically dim and rougher than a junkies carpet, has also been busy rehearsing her lines in readiness for an expletive laden confrontation at the school gates with a terrified & beleaguered headmaster: “it’s F****** outrageous that my boy has been sent home from school and singled out like this just for showing a little bit of individuality” is the outburst that Pip is expected to open with, although this is subject to change depending on which breakfast wine she selects on the morning of the planned meltdown. Pip, who is so thick she failed her birth certificate, is expected to add, whilst sucking heavily on a watermelon vape: “I swear down on my outreach workers life, I’ll home school him if I have to & I’ll go on the front page of the News Shopper, with a face like a beekeepers apprentice, whilst wearing a strappy top which exposes not only my shoulder dolphin tattoo but also my spectacular pendulous cleavage” It is thought that Pip is experimenting with a number of different looks for maximum impact & outrage, ranging from the simple but classic swastika, shaved into the side of little Klarna’s head, to a complete pink Mohican and she’s toyed with the idea of a “Millwall blue” dyed top knot with “no one likes us” tastefully sheared into the back of her little prince’s head but it is thought that the shooting stars skin fade look as pictured above may also be considered. The Gazette will have reporters at the gates of Rydell High to catch all the first day of term action if we can be arsed.

From a personal point of view and 33 years of looking after similar terrain as you indicated, my opinion is any choice of a "one machine for all jobs" can result in a poor compromise of all rather than excelling at any or every task. I found it much better to have a small light but powerful enough machine and have the ability to choose the implement to attach as the job/terrain/conditions dictate. there isn't going to be much about for that budget but with a bit of searching it should be possible to find a flail, a mower and a small garden tractor, kubota, iseki, etc. other uses can be found for a small tractor too, pulling a trailer, a sprayer can be attached, many implements can be ran from the pto, or from hydraulics.

No mate, people tend to use more than is needed which creates more problems as it builds up in the gate mechanism and binds with water/sap. DMM recommend duck oil.

The medical is no big deal, I have had to do one every year since I reached 65 to retain my HGV, only expense is the medical itself which is £60-£100, the license gets renewed FOC. Bob

Hi, thanks for the enquiry we will have a look and see, but it’s doubtful we have any parts for the BP1, as it’s a rare model! But will have a look for you and get back to you. Thank you again!

Never been asked for tickets to hire a chipper, just money. Agree with the above. I'd add depending on access to the hedge and what you're doing with the chip will tell you whether tracked or wheeled would suit better.

I'd love to be able to tell you I don't have a tab open for pink workshop overalls but here we find ourselves.
