Cool pictures, weather looked half decent too

like when I went to visit me mum up in Kyle of lochalsh earlier this year ended up taking two cherries down

[JimM]

Cracking day of sunshine. Big toy and big tree to play in.

And then Stevie appeared with Second Breakfast.

Great help and advice, Stevie. Cheers.

Love that little tractor, any more pics!!

[Stephen Blair]

Beautiful day Mozza, it was nice watching other folk work:)

That tractor was the landscapers next door.

It was brilliant, am American import, Low, wide and the guy was a good operator. It went up and down that banking with ease, it was hydro static so no spinning and very stable.

The company had 9 of them!

How do you book the services of Mr Blair then Jim? Just send a picture of your toys and then say your a man down.

Not far off, Goaty!

 

Previous post was in error. We had McMuffins for Second Breakfast, Stevie's bacon rolls and coffee was thirds!

 

The beech behind came down last Wednesday with the high winds. If you look at the hollow in the first pic, the developers had raised the ground level around the two beeches. Someone advised them this was not a good thing, so they used a JCB to dig back from the base of the trees. Damage round the buttresses had undoubtedly allowed the fungal attack in.

Our tree was damaged all around. Decay had set in, so it was only a matter of time. There are another two close by in worse state.

Spolling mistakes

Is that an Genie S60 chaps? I passed the IPAF 3a and 3b recently and I seem to spot MEWP's everywhere these days.

 

Do you prefer using the mobile MEWP's to Static ones?
