Another 40 year old just starting

Couldn’t care less,  the more useless, poorly equipped, dangerous idiots around the better.

 

Means people are happier to pay the money for those at the other end of the scale.

Yep, the more tossers the better. Some people want the cheapest quote of course but I don't want that kinda customer base. It's not in my long term business interests. 

 

Quote for quality, make them happy, they come back and expect to pay again for quality. 

 

Quote low and crap and they may come back again but they want to pay crap for crap.

Having said that I’ll top and lop for money, I just won’t smash the house or kill anyone in the process (as a general rule, no promises mind)

 

Company motto is “as long as I can’t see it from my house, I’ll do it!”

Saw this today, pulled over thinking it was storm damaged.
2 guys in jeans and a 261 tied in the tree.
This is classic pikey.

Looks like 4 saw cuts one tear/ripped branch. and a rear handle saw hanging from a branch. 

Have you been pass/looked at it again RH,,

Had tree work yesterday also. Just reduce a tree line by 5 ft all the way a long. Nothing fancy. 

 

Absolutely done in mind. Legs feel like they have lead in then and my abs do too. Can't understand it. I carry 100kg fence posts around and shovel and dig etc. Why is my  body so beat up?

[Mick Dempsey]

Different muscles, they’ll learn.

I find stretching before a days climbing helps, like runners do
