  1. I think you can only see the poll if you're on the desktop version of AT. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  2. So topping trees exists now? You changed your mind quickly! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  3. Bristol. You? I'm fairly confident that topping trees is a thing. I've seen it. I did it. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  4. No such thing as what? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  5. Great post and lovely pictures, thanks David! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  6. Hi all, I am trying to source 4 silver Birch poles of 3-3.5m length. A friend of mine has been asked to make a 'mandap' for a wedding and these are needed to complete the structure. Can collect from Gloucestershire or Worcestershire. Many thanks, Paul Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  7. Can you creat whatever spec survey form you want using PTM Pro? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  8. Rest in peace Dave. As John's said, it was a great service yesterday at the abbey. The massive turnout and words spoken by his two best friends and wife were very sobering. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  9. I've just emailed the city mosque to ask if I can visit to talk to them about their religion. I'm pretty ignorant about Islam. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  10. Keiron Hart at Tamla Trees has a lot of knowledge and experience regarding subsidence and trees. Tamla Trees Ltd He's based in Fleet, so not too far away.
  11. I don't think outline consent trumps a TPO. But I will check. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  12. Hi Nikk, Everything you need to know here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/tree-preservation-orders-and-trees-in-conservation-areas
  13. I wouldn't worry about looking silly to the Keysoft support team - I have set a precedent for that over the years!
  14. I have found in the past that the plot DWG to PDF function can throw things out. I installed a third party PDF creating software (PrimoPDF) and set that as the default printer in CAD. It works really well.
  15. Hi Gary, Does all text become pixellated, or just the tree reference numbers?
  16. What a disappointment that a genuinely interesting and positive post about up and coming arborists in education, has so quickly turned in to an opportunity to criticise. So, the stump of that tree may be a little high. But was that really the only thing worth saying about this thread and the pictures? Anyone can play the old 'constructive criticism' card whilst taking a swipe at someone else from behind a keyboard. John is taking positive action by actually investing time and effort in teaching the next generation of arbs - and these photos demonstrate that. He's employed as the lecturer to give constructive criticism to students, not us. If I were one of the students at Pershore reading this thread, it wouldn't make me want to join in on the forum as a place of learning and discussion. All I'm trying to say is, there's room for a bit more grace on here before jumping in with criticism, otherwise people will be put off posting - especially photos.
  17. Yawn. They're arb students - why be so negative about a post with some great photos?! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  18. Great photos as always John. Hope you're enjoying the teaching. We should have a chat sometime about a work placement or something as our office is only a few minutes away! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  19. You should get AA membership!! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  20. Hi Paul. Was only there for a couple of hours but really enjoyed it. There were a couple new exhibitors that were very interesting to me (Fakopp and DutchTrig). The site looked great and had enough food, drink and loos. I took my 5 year old boy and he liked the kids tree climbing/zip line and watching the assault course. Struggling to find some criticism - but I wasn't there shopping for shiny gear so I'm probably not the target market! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  21. Great, thanks Jenny. If I don't make it on Saturday I'll send you a cheque. I live near Tewkesbury so can also help out with getting and planting the tree if necessary Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  22. Hi Dave. Yes, that's an A3 clipboard. We both thought it odd that it drooped from where it was attached. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  23. My colleague found this on an English Oak today and we are having trouble identifying it (no books consulted yet though) It was attached to the trunk at about 3m above the ground, with the stipe on the top - so the flat side on the underneath. Any ideas? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  24. Rest in peace Dave - you will be missed. Such a tragedy to go so young. Thanks for initiating the collection Sean.
