  1. brilliant video reg
  2. another great job as ever
  3. i went round and asked for what i belived was owed and she paid up with lots off appologies for putting me in that situation. guess im lucky eh
  4. the reason i say this is that recently i was asked to fell severall trees on a property, this was a large house with the name of the owners company displayed at the end of the drive. i was asked to fell about 12 trees in varying states of health. halfway into the job i was approached by a man who told me he was the owner of the house having bought it off the occupant 5 years previously and that i was to halt work immediately.i decided to approach the "owner" and bill her for the works i had carried out. although there was no written contract i was assured confidently that if it were to go to a small claims court i would get my money and any that was owed to me after the 14 day period
  5. im only going on what ive been told. if youve carryed out treework on a property surely its been agreed to, unless you are incredably devious
  6. apparently a verbal contract is all that is needed. how many people actually get a signed contract before commencing works
  7. buissness management not being a strong point of mine either, this is what is put at the bottom of the invoices sent out from the my old mans office. turners solicitors
  8. at the bottom of every invoice i have this This invoice is payable upon completion of the works or otherwise within 14 days of the invoice date. I reserve the right to charge interest at 3% per annum above HSBC base rate on any amount owed to me which is over due. does any one else do this or similar
  9. up at 630 leave the house at 7 usually.majority of the firms i climb for start at 730 and it doesnt take more than 30 mins to get to most of their yards. finish when the jobs done

  19. you do the same thing wether your 10ft or 100ft off the ground..itjust takes longer for stuff to fall.i allways know when im comfortable up a tree because i start whistling
  20. i heard a brilliant fact about the amount of spores released by 1 sqcm of ganoderma every 1 hour, think it was in the region of 2 million...tony correct me if im wrong
