Ok then!

annoyed by highly qualified ..rubbsih climbers
Paul Barton replied to Czlowiek Drzewo's topic in General chat
I like that - I think this rule applies to most jobs, not just Arb. -
And the cool pics!

Nice reductions there Phenom. Those are shiny trousers - what are they?!
-
Talking of which - can we get a donate button back on the site? Sorry Steve, I am sure you already have lots to do with the upgrade...
-
Ha ha - yes indeedy mate. Should have pointed out it was a council job so tree officer's spec not mine!

Felled this ash today. It had 2 I. hispidus brackets on it - one at about 6ft and one about 20ft. Pictures show the ring with the bracket on (at 6 ft) and the resulting internal decay, and the butt. There was a small internal cavity in the butt but this was linked to an old wound at ground level I think rather than the Inonotus.

It's now working! Did you fix it that fast or was I being a clutz for not getting it first time?! (yep - probably the latter) Lovin' it Steve.

...except I used to use the 'unread posts' link in the top right hand corner to browse through recent posts but now the link has gone. Have you decided to replace it with the 'todays posts' button at the top? If so, does that show the same results as unread posts or just posts within the last 24 hours?

Seems to be working luverly jubbly on Safari browser for Mac here. I like it - top marks Bullman!

There were lots of slippery slopes up there - I fell down quite a few....

...but I've never done anything as daft as that Justin!!!!

After 9/11 you had to get transit visas for america if you were passing through - even if you did not leave the airport. Muggins managed to lose his visa between arriving and getting to the next departure lounge. After much fuss with the authorities and profuse sweating I made the plane with seconds to go.

Tech Cert help - woodland management plan
Paul Barton replied to stevelucocq's topic in Training & education
Hi Steve - if you PM me your email address I could send you my efforts that I did during the course last year. I certainly wouldn't say they are all that but might give you a starting point? Paul -
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family Andrew. Paul

Awesome Reg - you got some killer skills!!
-
Here are a few from Westonbirt (feel like a cheat taking photos there!) on Monday.

I have income protection which probably isn't quite the same but it's with Pioneer Friendly. They are pretty reasonable and pay out without too much hassle.
-
Glad you survived that - looks like it could have been very nasty indeed.
-
Amazingly some competitors completed their courses and made it to the overnight camp no probs. They admitted it was quite tough but not impossible. I think the major problem was the volume of water around the HQ and car park.
-
I would have thought it was more of a biodiversity issue through loss of deadwood habitat rather than a H&S problem. Very odd.
-
LAMM sounds great. Have you done a few?
-
From what I gather the Mountain Rescue support the event - many of their members take part in it. Many are saying the event should not have taken place given the forecasts, but all runners should be experienced enough and have enough kit to survive a dismal night.
-
It was very exhilarating on the tops!! I also love it when the elements do their worst - it's also good knowing that you have a way out! Some guys had a pretty long night up there but no casualties which is great.

Anyone else up at the OMM this weekend? I made it up on Friday, camped there and started the race on Saturday morning. We retired early afternoon as the conditions were getting too atrocious for us. Felt like a bit of a wuss until I saw the news later on! Reckon if we hadn't of left when we did I would still be there sheltering somewhere!
