  1. They can earn you a lot of money, but they are horrible to use.
  2. What your looking for is NOT first aid training. You are wanting above & beyond I.e. first responder which is more expensive & time consuming
  3. Very very nice Dean! You fitting any tool boxs?
  4. Big climb. Looked like plenty of fun
  5. 254 or 440 can't decide twixt them
  6. Done & can help with the climbs if you cannot get anyone more local to help you
  7. Illegal burning by those in a smokeless zone without a cleanburn stove, yes, but not found the illegal supply
  8. Bear sleeps in the kitchen & never goes upstairs unless he is sent to get my lazy ass out of bed
  9. My welcome Bear. Yours may be a little easier to get past though
  10. I quit sept last year. It's easy if you want too.
  11. Once upon a time in the west . The original spaghetti western
  12. And our Xmas bonus is Bob ?
  13. If you have a google account you can opt out of the advertisement tracker.
  14. i love that tree. I slow down & often stop when I pass it
  15. Pete Mctree

    Wages??

    £30k means your going to have to run your own biz. Posts at such a rate are like hens teeth for sure.
  16. checked my photo's - here is the view from about 240ft
  17. 230ft ish
  18. premenstrual chainsaw comparisons
  19. I disagree strongly. Stop smoking & don't transfer the fixation. It's a permenant thing, not just a short term infatuation/transferance. Deal with it & enjoy the rest of your life
  20. Bob hides away in the office behind a shirt & tie these days - I would have to be truley cunning & steal them out of him car in the morning if I wanted them
  21. I'm loving being an ex smoker - makes me smile everytime I think about it
  22. Where & when were they stolen?
  23. A fast back-cut is not always enough. Especially free-grained timbers of a larger diameter, eg willow alder ash some poplars etc. Not saying it can't be done, but additional measures such as increased depth of face cut, reduction of the hingewood length at each side etc. Alternativley you could research the Coos bay cut. Great in some situations but has no directional properties
  24. Your rope strop would take a couple of tonnes to break it Dave, but would be easier to cut for sure
  25. Nice Dean. How did it cope with dead-wood?
