Working without certificates etc

[ash1]

But who owns the track and what access rights have been granted. I know our farm track is covered in the title deeds with repair being shared equally based on 3 quotes.

Without going into vast detail, I recently, personally, dressed the whole track , over a mile long, at my expense even though it should be shared by four users and was happy to undertake that to help my neighbors. The only area damaged, is the stretch accessed by forestry vehicles.

I'll let you work it out.

certs ??? what for ??

Would you really? If it's two owner occupiers working together then most of above doesn't apply

 

Interesting point...

 

If they were deriving an income then wouldn't it cease to be a leisure or DIY activity and start to be a work activity?

 

If a work activity all Matt's references would apply.

 

Maybe HMRC would be the agency to define wether it's a work activity or not, or maybe they could just behave like reasonable neighbours and all this would go away?

Yes, I would really (based on what he said in the post).

 

Would be interested in finding out what laws I would be breaking using my chainsaw to lay the neighbors hedge.

 

He didn't mention it was his own hedge, or even a boundary hedge, and he didn't mention that he was working alongside his neighbour.

Question well & truly answered!

 

haha.

 

Evening Kevin.

 

You don't think he would tell A and E that he injured himself logging in the garden whilst using an electric chainsaw he just got from B and Q?

I assumed he was helping neighbour in expectation that neighbour would return help in due course. Like it used to be before a multitude of regs

As a contractor I broke my leg badly on an FC site years ago, the forester we had in those days was a real bash on get the timber to the roadside kind of chap.. Kind of person that is badly missed these days. Anyway first thing he said was "don't tell the f@cking hospital what really happened or we'll all be up to eyes in paperwork and reports" !

Quite right Mat thats why I asked the question I think the days of just helping a fellow farmer has sadly gone but if a formal share farming arrangement solves the problem then that is what we will do.
