  1. it's proving that the training was adequate. You can train and certify inhouse but the onus would you to prove that it is satisfactory. Who else other than NPTC offer arb forestry units at the moment?
  2. nice Andy. You been killing trees in the mud by anychance? lol
  3. I don't think that is realistic Lee. Proving that an employee was suitably trained without nationally recognised qualifications would be difficult and very time consuming. Especially if the poo hits the fan. It gets complex enough recording and unpdating any inhouse training as it is. By all means train them and get them assesed independantly, but taking the moral high ground could be costly IMHO
  4. NIce vid. Hope that camera does not stay idle too long!!!
  5. Thanks for the pic treesurfer. My lurcher is salivating just looking at them!!! lol
  6. Great vid. Nice work too MB!
  7. cool pics folks. Sad news indeed Mike, I know how you feel Red setters are famed for the loyalty and stupidity. At least we can attribute one of those traits to you Ed
  8. Hehe you must be some kind of superman to throw sticks like that!
  9. Great pic Burnham, here's a pic of Bonnie to keep him company
  10. Good post!
  11. Welcome Burnham. Great to see you here
  12. Here you go. A bit of sawdust flying to kick things off
  13. The Oak I suppose is the tree that is nearest the mark
  14. At this time of year it's tennis elbow from trimming bloody hedges
  15. isnt gay wrist syndrome cured by visiting loads of hetro porn sites, or have you tried that
  16. Great pespective, good to watch. Thanks
  17. Only the same way you have described Steve. Never tried anything else
  18. I'll agree with the prussic. hopefully steve can posts some pics of what i was tuning up this afternoon
  19. The tiered system sounds reasonable in principal, but it would involve reassesment which, unless there is some incentive i.e. reduced insurance would only incur more cost to either an individual or biz.
  20. In that case good call
  21. Nice pics, watch out for those stubs, you are going to get hurt someday on one. Only leave them if you have a need for it
  22. Bloody fantastic
  23. I like the first one, but being awkward I love the font of the 2nd one to be used. Less formal and easier on the eye
  24. I use srt quite a bit, it is easier than footlocking imo, and for me quicker on a long ascent. I like to keep it simple and use the minimum kit
