Got our cert through dont take their shite about needing to defer coz its bS

Hi Lee Merry Xmas by the way I Hope the familys Ok We already do some although on a limited level I used to do a lot of it when I started up from Fences to Patios & ponds then block paved driveways So thats not to big an issue I have got most of the kit & have now got a mini ex' I really arent sure to what level I want to divert tho' I'm curently looking at a 57hp carraro tractor with imp's Rotovator flail mower etc' so may stick with private Or might thro' my hat in the ring & do more commercial stuff There are problems with both as you well know lee the Trick is sussing the potential volumes from both & building accordingly , Although I dont want to much As staffing is great when you 've got work & a nightmare when you havent Have a good night tomorrow + all the best for you & yours for next year rgds Iain

Do whatever it takes ~So get more business clients / contracts be selective in prviate clients, Do more consultancy work (get quals') carry on as Nptc Assessor sell more equipment sell / supply chip sell logs Do more groundswork or landscape potential got staff Levels back up get iso Accreditaiton Going Ltd Go on holiday

feck me I never took you for a techno geek steve this will lead to a lazy assessment of kit just to meet a daft regulation , if people are too lazy to check kit then this will just lead to them swiping each kit bag, Because they have to & its easy = Lazy, just so that there is a tick in the box, the potential is deadly !! whats wrong with looking at stuff then signin a bit of paper or a mark on an exel spead sheet jeez £400.notes + the stuff na ! not for me

yep but its carrying a load !!!! whats sauce for the goose is good for the gander unimog is an ag vehicle too clasified as a tractor as it pulls pushes or powers just a thought ! what about other ag vehicles then combines are run on red diesel but they have a built in manufacturer designed storage tank the same as a unimog can. a loads a load as far as the law stands

what do crop boomspray vehicles run on Red ?! they are carrying spray thats a load ! whether its litres in the tank or mils of litres in the pipes if its there its a load

its all well & good being able to rescue your climber Helps hugely if there is a secondary kit available too

STRAIGHT OVER MY HEAD

scared worried concerned Whatever keeps you coming down each tree with the same body parts as when you went up it is all good I know a bloke who keeps cutting digits off with a saw lost a thumb top & two finger tips so far he wont be posting on here tho' as typings a bitch for him

I'd luv too but the accountant says you can't get your Vat back on them, as they dont carry a load !

Cheers I've still got a fourtack A Good Tool still not sure on the new motor but have a family member who works for nissan so he's trying to see what discount he can get me THe bt50 & ranger seem cheap & cheerfull Not convinced tho' + I like the pose of the navara

bad one matt i learnt my lesson a long time ago snags are a bitch I dont wear jewelery at work ( saying that I dont work much Now anyway, well not on the tools) machines chippers & log splitters dont know that your the boss they just carry on regardless hope you heal fast Mate

what do you lot think Nissan Navara Ford Ranger MitsY 200 mazda bt50 toyota hilux

they've thought about that b4 , re work @ height leg it didn't get through then either totally impractical , totally unenforcable , how will they know, as when an accident happens, a throw line would soon take care of any problem how can you double anchor on the stem dismantle, my double point are each at the end of my gaffs academics who have no of knowledge practical applcation will get shot down whenever this raises its head, people who professionally climb are much more aware of their own mortallity anchor point + work positioning strop fine but double anchor as a requirement Not , lets face it a double line in a lombardy full of eppi ' is more of a hazard than it is a saftey enhancement also any risk assessment that sees a double line as a health risk would negate any potentially perceived benefit imagine the **** storm the first time a climber was physically ripped apart because a section being removed ended caught in one of these extra points Its bad enough to be pulled out of a tree but to torn in 2 No thanks !! rant over iain

As for time in the business actual time, most of the day, if not actually sorting problems or planning or day dreaming it never really lets up coz there is always something that can be done its just having the drive to do it and if you dont it gets away from you As we all know there will always be competition, though personally I dont justify my price & I dont drop it either , if they dont like it get someone cheaper its a free world after all , )unless your naming Teddy bears !) A plumber with a tool box on his own, can be on around £ 50 - £75 an hour + materials, so if you have a 3 man team that eqates too £150.00- £225 ph therefore we are all way too cheap !!!

nah its just Plain jealousy coz they appreciate anna more lol

nice pics matt like the tree thats growing bricks class lol

you can chose your friends but not your relatives a sensible approach is not to mix either & loaning money its way messy, Trust me ! offer advice where you & they think its needed, trying to sort other peoples lives, when they are low & stressed, it can seem to them as intefering. she has already told you so in not too many words, so if they know they can call , wait & let them

when i've needed to footlockjust used the normal line 12 mm x-perience dont see the need for any extra cost, as when footlockin ' I aint wearin spikes ' , if the rope gets any muckier off my boots, then i bang it in the washing machine but in most cases it gets grubbier from the bark syc's etc.

ring around your wood turning groups or country craft type bods they buy oak rather than seeing the bigger stuff go to the fire !

how many times did you walk in front of the gob cut,I lost count ? all that moving a round by your camera dude sent me gog eyed

ed that hornet is impressive, how much ?

Nice one ! I Knew it was a decent truck, when you bought it, glad to see its still holding out. yeah tax bill to pay in Jan urrgh... dont suppose they'll mis lay that reminder, after all its only mine, not 25 million others lol

Hi Ya Matt Good I'm glad hows it going ? made your first mil yet ??
