  1. Processor! You'll do the the work in half a time without breaking a sweat and never look back.
  2. Been a week since this went live and i'm keen on any feedback over its usability. I have a few things I am working on, the main one being more info on the map marker.
  3. Pretty sure arborwear.co.uk is the only supplier. Could try going direct to arbor wear.com
  4. If you drop your pencil whilst out on a survey and someone trips over it causing them to have a pencil phobia for life, public liability will cover you. Don't laugh, people are idiots and should never be underestimated.
  5. Think he's probably referring to the other pts https://www.get-licensed.co.uk/personal-track-safety
  6. Second that. Although I do find it makes it hard to grip onto your climbing line.
  7. its pretty easy, specially the straight stuff.
  8. Thanks Geoff, you can create your listing exactly as you want it by clicking on the 'add new tip site' button on this link https://arbtalk.co.uk/recycling/ Thanks!
  9. We are thinking about getting one of those fake stoves when we move. No chimney so a woodburner isn't a viable option without spending a lot extra money
  10. That just means the side facing the fence will likely brown and die off, everything at the front will remain green.
  11. Yep you can buy big trees, they are referred to as 'standards'. All depends on your budget. They aren't cheap, you will obviously need good access to get them in. Then add to that they require more aftercare than putting in a young tree and if they are neglected will die a lot easier than something small. https://www.seagravenurseries.co.uk/home/cypress-trees-and-conifers?gclid=Cj0KCQjw08XeBRC0ARIsAP_gaQC9a6Zma_IDG4P1aWvNkfQyPn9tGXNh9h_dLjytj2hS-lvYlhzhIMYaArycEALw_wcB
  12. Not an employer, but having seen from the outside in you most definetly need as long as a probation period that you are allowed. I'm not sure what this is though. Most people will try and shine for their probation period of lets say a month. But it often takes time for their heads to drop, by which time you are simply stuck with them thanks to our stupid employment laws. Also as time goes on their personality traits start to come out more, or as one of my friends puts it 'they all let the weird out eventually'.....again you are stuck with them at this point. This is where I think zero hour contracts are good, its just a shame too many employers abuse them.
  13. Stupidly I created this feedback section ahead of the launch and just realised I hadn't made it public. Keen to hear on your feedback for the tip site directory so far. Positives are of less interest than negatives
  14. Probably because he was about 120 I expect
  15. Most companies i've worked for have started between 7:30 and 8:00. Can't say i'm a fan of early starts myself, but the old saying 'an hour in the morning is worth 2 in the afternoon' always stands true.
  16. Fox. Think its closed down now. It was a chinese restaurant for quite some time.
  17. I didn't realise till recently that Eucalyptus is used for a lot of railway sleepers. I always assumed(wrongly) it was oak.
  18. Never knew either of those things. Hornbeam is also used for skittles for the same reason. Interesting also that the Romans used to use Elm for water pipes
  19. I've had Navaras for the past 10 years now and never had a single problem. You don't see many single cabs around though. I assume you want 4wd?
  20. Well if I think of anywhere i'll let you know. Theres nothing too close in the tip site directory for stowmarket yet unfortunately
