No !

I spent all day reading this instead !

 

Seriously though, after dealing with a so called emergency hanger, i spent some of today with the team looking at various Safety Issue threads on here.

 

Great Training/Debate Tool.

Beats mind numbing maintenance/housekeeping !

Been out all day and was wet though to the skin before 9. Struggling for days around child care at the minute so working every day possible come rain or shine. The lad that works with me would walk knee deep in sh1t for his money so a bit of rain is nothing to him.

Sacked it when i looked out the window this am. We had a big leaning oak take down with no access in a muddy bog hole so good call here i think. Dead wooding a wood land tomorrow (don't ask!) so don't care what it's doing tomorrow ;)

We lifted 20 road side limes... Get some decent wet weather gear and if it's safe.. get on with it.. The sun came out for about 10 mins at 2 o'clock. I dress head to toe in gortex and will stay pretty dry whatever the weather. Excluding your arms which are soaked every time you decend.. At least it's not cold and you can feel your fingers.

Worked Friday in rain/sleet/snow - one of the worst days I have ever worked. At least it was easy felling of little willows.

 

Reduced a fairly large and extremely slippery lime tree today - I am done in. Yuck.
