Good morning folks! I changed the prizes to a Petzl spartha knife, the one you can clip to a karibiner, much more practical IMO, seeings as most of you guys climb. Another smaller gift will follow shortly in the post.

Jap doublecab, follow your head not your heart ED...:wave: yep thats another can of worms opened by yours truely...

Common sense, a will to work, and will to learn are far more important to an employer than tickets other than the basics, i've been an employer for over 15 years and thats what I look for. If I were you I wouldn't worry about more tickets, these will come in time and with the right employer All the best in your chosen career...

Its not the rig mate its the products you use in it! I agree air-spading/ vertical mulching and radial trenching is best, but folks with formal lawns etc etc simply don't want the mess and upheaval associated with Air-spades and mulch. Water soluble macro and micro nutrients definately have a place in PHC imo. What make/type of myc rig were you using? if you don't mind me asking Question why do you think deep root fertilising is deemed benefitial in the USA, Canada, Australia and Europe, but not the in UK? For anyone interested I have a system and product/cocktail that would have worked very well on the Fagus, all be it a Beech in a similar condition, if anyone is interested I can be contacted via email. It wouldn't have saved the tree, but it would have slowed the biodegradation.. I will hold my hands-up and apologise to John, he has a job to do, and the general public to safe guard, I wouldn't want to be in his shoes ''if'' the tree injured someone. Unfortunatly for the tree, it was always in a vulnerable place.. Good to see another THC practitioner on here, welcome to arbtalk Chris..

merely a question nothing personal..

You really dont know? are you in an authoritative role with the council....

we agree again... with a crown thin and soil treatment, that tree would have lasted another 5+ years

Tata double cab?

do you own a Picus John?

Me and the wife had a weekend in London last summer, stayed in the Savoy and went to the Royal Opera House to see Rigoletto, dinner in china town, cocktails in the American bar of the Savoy, cost a packet , but we never went on holiday last year so thought i'd push the boat out. Wife did a bit of shopping as well, you can get a good deal on top London hotel rooms if you get lucky.

steak pie and mushy peas

I noticed there was some other interesting vids on there as well......
