  1. And that isnt a flipline either, its a lanyard.
  2. Not much use for towing a 3.5 tonne trailer though.
  3. Subbies are covered if you want them to be covered, if the company doesnt have cover for using subbies then they shouldnt use them.
  4. Are you getting some mudguards on there? I can see some signwritten spray suppression accessories......
  5. Not really, its a voluntary scheme run by local authorities to help look after council tree stock and take the pressure off TOs.
  6. Ok, think i have the answer. The foley conversions are 6x4, but the 3rd axle is engaged when required with an air locker.
  7. 2000 mature manchester poplars removed across manchester in 18 months must have had an impact!
  8. Suppose it would. Did have a look on the Foley website but they arent very forthcoming.
  9. Accurate id of poplar is difficult to say the least. As they hybridise readily there are many naturally occuring hybrids that look very similar to the parents. I do have the BSBI handbook of willows and poplars if you want to borrow it Dean.
  10. Nissan dont make anything bigger than the cabstar. The Canter is a Mitsubishi, dont know if they do a 4x4 version but from the 4x2 ones I'v driven, I dont think they would make a good off road vehicle.
  11. Andy is talking about a 6x6
  12. Locks the two axles together like a diff lock, but over two axles. Without it the back wheels will just loose traction and spin in soft ground, as all the weight of the vehicle will be on the middle axle with the stiffer springs.
  13. Do the two rear axles have cross locks?
  14. And the turning circle of the QEII.....
  15. Unless the horses were wearing snow shoes!
  16. Dont know what breed it is, but it goes to my barber!
  17. white card, there is a code for tree surgeons, just look it up on their website. The easist way to do it is through Skills Direct, ring them up and they will do the rest for you. The total cost of card plus test is £42 whether you use them or not.
  18. You mean something like this? [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNmGjCsX-LU&feature=related]YouTube - Family guy British porn[/ame]
  19. Do you have a budget to stick to, or is that a dirty word at city of london? Hydraulic winch would be my choice, I'm sure there will be plenty of drooling landy buffs here very shortly, as soon as they have finished polishing their knobs etc.
  20. Three words, dont do it! Actually, if you're getting one brand new, I'm slightly jealous.
  21. Yes, just remind me not to venture north of the border when your out training!
  22. HGV training firms are very well organised, you can get your class 2 licence in under a week, once you've had the medical and done the thoery test etc... The training and test is fairly challenging, but its good fun.
  23. Just go for the hgv mate, youre always saying your looking for a new challenge.
  24. Its been a while, thankfully, but I'm sure they have obvious collars. As for removing dead, any time of the year should be fine.
  25. Hes doing that thing that Alfie does where he pretends he cant quite see the hen, therefore doesnt need to do anything!
