how does it hold up to the falteimer peter?

they were both me! glad to have inspired you sooo much

whats this word that was censored?

that ridiculous...i cant believe anyone in their right mine would ask someone to do that. very unprofession of the funeral service IMO for not having that all sorted out prior to the event. sorry to hear of your loss pete

old technology...i was using this in the Girl Guides 10 years ago

a premier should pull that through with blunt rollers and crap springs i would have thought!

ok only reason i asked was if they have just switched to that machine after using a timberwolf for instance, then they may have been expecting it to take large wood in as a timberwolf does, and they simply dont. we always used to cut anything big with a slanting cut to make it go through easier.

how long have you had the machine and what did you use previously?

How does this compare to other softwoods as a firewood?

yeah i noticed john lol (you know what i mean)

i might take the odd peak:001_tt1: and the occassional cruise maybe:001_tongue:

you're XS right?

i didnt call bt yet. when you called them up were you at the end of a contract? im mid way through so im not sure i would have any leverage other than telling that i would leave at the end of the term

i just had a truck quote from nfu, half the price of my usual company

are you allowed to do that?

the company "your insurance" who have just started advertising here and looking at increasing their share in the arb market....could be worth a call....and im not just trying to promote them as they are sponsors...im actually interested to hear what their quotes are like! http://www.yourinsurance.co.uk/tree-surgeons/tree-surgery-insurance.aspx?utm_source=A&utm_medium=b&utm_content=1&utm_campaign=A

Dear members and guests, I received this sad news yesterday and would like to share the official notice from Timberwolf along with my own personal message. "It is my sad duty to report the death of my business partner Alex Whyte. In late September 2008 Alex set off with a friend on his holiday of a lifetime driving down the east coast of America and then across through the musical south to Memphis. On the 4th October 2008 while queing to get in a bar Alex was pushed over hitting his head on the curb suffering a serious brain injury. Despite several brain operations in the USA and Addenbrookes in Cambridge and a valiant fight from Alex, he lost his fight for life on the 7th March 2009 - 5 months and 3 days after the accident. Alex is survived by his wife Liz and 5 year old daughter Emily. Not only was Alex my business partner, he was also a close friend and mentor; he will be sorely missed. Regards Richard Marshall Managing Director Timberwolf." I'm sure many of you here have had dealings with Alex in the past and i'm sure many of you were priveleged to be able to call him a friend. I had personally known Alex a little over a year but in that time feel we developed a very good relationship. Alex/Timberwolf were one of the first companies to support Arbtalk. Alex was a great help to me personally in the early days of Arbtalk, always on hand to offer advice and sometimes direction. Knowing his role with Timberwolf and how he probably had a thousand more important things to be doing, it always stood out to me how he would always answer or return my calls and emails promptly. I would often call Alex with, what looking back now, were really quite trivial matters/problems that I may have been facing on Arbtalk, be it member problems or general business issues. He always had a unique perspective on things that I would never have seen myself, and would often make what seemed like a huge crisis suddenly become quite irrelevant! I personally feel the loss of a good friend and also a much valued business confidant. My thoughts at this time go to his wife and daughter.
