  1. Yes, all except the oldest.
  2. I'll be there Thursday, be good to meet up.
  3. I swear I scraped that out of my 15 month olds nappy yesterday.
  4. Bottom heavy with knob jockies?
  5. <p>You need to clear your pms.</p>

  6. Looking again, prefer a climber this time, ideally with towing licence.
  7. Did you wedge it over or just let it go with the natural lean? I would have though a pair of wedges would have got it into the lay. No real harm done though, and an easy fix. Anyone who fells trees has had one go slightly off target at some point in their career.
  8. Very smart Bob. (and Mick)
  9. Yeah, you don't want any sodden seconds.
  10. What's involved in becoming a Rolo trainer? It's fine putting all the lads through a course, but every time you get a new employee or subbie you have to find them a single place, which is more difficult.
  11. Had mine 7 years, done 130,000 miles on the same clutch, and it hasn't snapped in half even once.
  12. It does have rules, sure there's plenty of blood and broken bones, unlike in boxing where broken skin is unusual but brain injuries are the norm due to the enormous weight and power of the gloved punch. Similar story in American football too.
  13. Just print a copy of the letter in the op and take it with you. http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/arb-trucks/39906-good-news-vosa.html
  14. As Long as the actual weight of the trailer doesn't exceed 1600kg then you can tow it with the Freelander.
  15. I run 3/8 Lo pro on my 550, the extra power of the 560 might be a bit too much for the smaller chain. Worth a go though.
  16. So do I, but this time round it was a case of "do you want the trees cut or not?" On this occasion they were holding up getting a new power cable trenched in, so they put up with it. Interestingly enough, the site manager also said the team who installs the cable won't do CSCS, or even do the site induction, their attitude is "do you want the cable putting in or not?"
  17. It's still possible to get a cscs card without doing a one day course first, however it's getting harder and the more switched on construction companies will insist on you having the correct category card. I had to get one in a hurry, so I sat the touch screen test and applied for a white CRO card under the horticultural service engineer category. I will have to do the rolo course and get the right card at some point a way though, just finding it hard to get a local venue.
  18. Paolo has been beating the srt drum for at least 10 years.
  19. You really are on a beech holiday.
  20. Did they not have any calm ones or did you get them to irritate them a bit first?
  21. I think you will struggle to get an sort of meaningful ID from those low res pics.
