  1. What...again?
  2. Inland what?
  3. True enough, for me also, buttttt, you should really have your own insurance anyway. Or so I have been told.
  4. If I break something I run away with my fingers in my ears.
  5. Blimey, I would be skint.
  6. Pete wins the pictures comp!
  7. Great to see the pictures from Romania Marc, I spent six months out there when I was younger most of that was out in the sticks in North east Romania, it was like going back in time, horse and carts, sleds in the winter, chopping firewood by hand. Maybe the low accident rate in their forestry is a result of not being under constant pressure to produce? That and the plum brandy for breakfast.
  8. I would have removed them. Chortle
  9. I have a trigger like that, it's called a big shot release catch and comes, I believe, from the sailing industry. I don't use it, mate of mine uses the same catch for kite boarding as a quick release.
  10. I wish could make it.
  11. I was told that the Petzl helmet has a working life of ten years.
  12. Have a good trip to Morocco.
  13. Fantastic pictures Roger.
  14. Here you go Mikee...http://www.southerndownhill.com
  15. You could buy this frame, damn I want one of these!
  16. Agreed.
  17. Rotate video. http://www.nirp.co.uk/rotatevideos/download-rotate-videos/ http://www.onlyfreewares.com/Audio-Video/Tools/Free-Video-Flip-and-Rotate.php I have, in the past, had problems with losing sound with some of these rotate software packages. This is the one I have used which did lose sound but that could have been a glitch my end. http://www.download3000.com/download_47377.html
  18. Other than the GRCS/hobbs nearly getting hit, I would say that was perfectly done. The guy pulling the rope looked fatter than the log, which is a good rule of thumb! Ha, ha, nice one.
  19. Here you go John. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00csz7t/
  20. Never seen one that big, always smaller and always falling apart.
  21. Kings of Leon. [ame] [/ame]
  22. 9.8.1 General ...NOTE 2 Within the context of crown reduction as opposed to “topping”, the diameter of cuts would not normally exceed 100 mm. Worth knowing don'tcha think? Is that something you work to already?? Annex E.1.3 Severity of pruning Pruning can be regarded as severe if the total cross-sectional area of all the cuts is more than one-third of the cross-sectional area of the trunk. As shown in Table E.1, forty-eight cuts of 50 mm-diameter have the same area as a single 346 mm cut (see also Figure E.1 concerning reduction of the volume of the crown). What about re-reduction of a tree? Something I seem to be doing a lot for local authority's.
  23. I just buy a new rope. Not really, I have my own machine in my garage, wash on cold with soap flaked off a no fuss bar. Saves on pissing off the Mrs.
  24. I see, I just 50/50 along the limb like today.
