  1. No tree is ever worth an injury! good call, like Andy said another day another time...
  2. do they come road legal Ed?
  3. I'd go Honda everytime
  4. looks like you've even washed the cab down Steve?
  5. I'd just leave it to the experts, i've messed with electrics before, not nice blowing fuses and wondering if your loom might go up in smoke etc... They might well be called step down convertors, i've just heard them called dropper boxes.. Just one thing ''in the cab'' has the electric fag lighter/12v/24v plug socket been dropped to 12v? they usualy have been, but it would be good to check just in case you plug a sat-nav or phone charger in and bugger it up!
  6. you need a proper little box of tricks thats fitted under the truck near the tow hitch,its called a dropper box, not cheap but the only way to do it properly, any towing centre or tow bar fitter will fit one, costs around £75-100
  7. I just think its a big waste of time and money, me I'd rather do the staff investing myself, I don't need the services of a middle man telling me what I should and shouldn't be doing with my time and money.. IMO no amount of 'investing in people' will have much effect on todays work force.. And imo the little symbol won't mean much to the general public either, or bring in any commercial work.. Best of luck to those who give it a go! it's just not for me.
  8. Pigeons are one thing, get the RSPB on your back for interfering with any other species and you'll wish you hadn't
  9. Err nope, but the scheme is a waste of time
  10. Just a pet hate, nothing personal mate..
  11. I put them in the nearest tree and let nature take its course
  12. from what i've been told its a waste of time and money
  13. A van for tree work?? Tree surgeons use Trucks not vans.. :BoomSmilie_anim:
  14. Have you been vaccinated Matt?
  15. Nice tool, bargain
  16. ouch that hurt!!, when was the last time you saw me climb by the way?
  17. Well its either you or me Aussie!
  18. Ditto that....
  19. Good point Matty about feeling run down, I feel run down 24/7 and have done for years, how about we all use our combined buying power work and buy in bulk, saving a few quid! i'd be up for that.
  20. Spot on! my thoughts exactly!
  21. I trialled one for a trade mag, Total ARB I think, its ok but I wouldn't be crying if I lost it, In fact I gave mine to a friend in the USA she loves it!
  22. I won't be using it unless it becomes the same price as unleaded or the contract stipulates that I use it
  23. Bloody expensive.............
  24. Twice or even 3 times the price of regular petrol Matty..
  25. Smoked bush meat from the Congo, with garlic mash
