  1. I'm going to formally complain, rip-off Britain again!
  2. Can you please explain why we the buyers ie the whole point of the APF show are being charged £15 on the gate or £13 if tickets purchased beforehand ''to spend our money'' I don't get charged to go to Saltex! It works out at a fair few quid if you go for three days , and imo it leaves a bitter taste in ones mouth! IMO with the credit crunch etc etc trade shows should be free of charge.
  3. You could always try biological control, personaly my favorite choice, try one of these ''Metaphycus helvolus'' these little chaps will eat there way through the scale insects in no time, they are available from these people http://www.interiorlandscaping.co.uk/Biologica.htm
  4. Spray with Scotts Bug Clear Ultra it will kill the scale insects, the black areas will be sooty mould, once the scale insects are all gone spray leaves with fungicide, the bills in the post lol
  5. Nissan cabstar van... I thought they only came in truck version
  6. Most tree firms charge around £30 a transit load £60 for a 7.5 ton lorry load..
  7. I agree, cardboard will be gone in no time, and I personaly don't like membranes. David I doubt mulch over grass will supress grass growth completely but would that be such a problem?
  8. I have a client who may be requiring the services of a conscientious Arb firm, to mulch a large Cedar and a Yew. PM with your contact details,if your interested. You will need a supply of decent semi-composted woodchip.
  9. Jeez at this rate you'll be the next chancellor of the exchequer..
  10. I agree with b101uk, simple business maths imo
  11. In a word ''no''
  12. Top quality work as ever Matty..
  13. What kind of kit you got , hi-abs , 7.5 ton trucks , 12'' chippers?
  14. I recently paid 3 scaffolders £3,000+vat for 2 days work and the hire of the scaffold for a year.. If you cant earn a clear thousand now and then we must be in the crappiest industry onf them all, If I took all that kit you mentioned above on a job Ed and didn't clear a grand i'd jack!
