  1. Just imagine how much easier they would be with a bucket truck...And the funny thing is, you don't see lines of Lleylandii round here, so we never get the chance.
  2. Climbed 'em all?
  3. Pain in the balls job eh Steve? Mind you mate, you made it look good. I used to HATE doing them, no matter how much ganja you smoke, it still bores you shitless.
  4. NEVER liked skinheads.....boots and braces wankers most of 'em.
  5. First single was The Clash, London Calling. Can't remember first album. Most recent purchase/download was Collective Soul.
  6. Still no trans Atlantic brew yet, there's probably some pissed up Yank customs inspector falling around the place somewhere! However, I'll have my mitts on 4 of the little beauties later tonight. Special Brew on my fuckin' mini wheats tomorrow morning...
  7. That reminds me of a joke, someting about riding mopeds and fat birds.......or was it riding fat birds and mopeds?
  8. Meet in the yard @ 7:30am (7am if we have to travel). My guys knock off when they finish (anywhere from 2 right up until 7 or 8 in the Summer).....Then there's all the paperwork sh*t that goes with running your own business. I sometimes don't get a chance to fall asleep on the couch until 9:30/10 o'clock!
  9. Not yet mate, BUT my best man (another Brit arborist) was back in Yorkshire a couple of weeks ago, and as luck would have it when we meet up at the TCIA Expo in CT tomorrow he has...........a 4 pack of Brew for me!! If Carl's arrives tomorrow I'll have 8 cans of brew for the TCIA Expo!!!! Could get messy.....:marchmellow:
  10. Good post....
  11. Join TCIA and ISA and get their magazines. Good all round arb publications.
  12. I've always known it as a 'key hole' cut.
  13. Can't quite reach it......it's ok though, High Scale's Trans Atlantic Special Brew Delivery Service should be making it's 2nd drop any day now!!
  14. Alright Andy, do you serve Special Brew in this establishment?
  15. 'It wasn't me.....' 'Don't know what you're talking about officer' 'Stroll on....' 'I swear to tell the truth, the half truth and nothing like the truth' 'I haven't had a c*nt all night Drinkstable'
  16. And to think....I just have 1 crazy Mexican driving my rig around. And NO.......not in a million years would I swap him for 8 of your guys!! He's one of the best groundies I've ever known.
  17. Really?!? That IS f*ckin' ickle. My Woodsman tips the scales at a tad under 7000lbs.
  18. Pair of tits like two Arabs fighting in a tent.
  19. Speak English Steve, whats 750kg in lbs please???
  20. So, how much does the average UK chipper weigh Steve, any idea? And what's a 'lorry'? ha ha.
  21. All this bickering about piddly little Euro chippers just makes me smile. I agree with Ed, if you want a decent chipper......and I hate to say it, buy Yank!! I've been in the tree game 20+ years now and my Woodsman 15X is by far the best chipper I've ever seen in action. Obviously, if I was still in the UK it would be a different matter. The last company I worked for in England used Arboreater chippers with some shite Italian engine in them. Still defeats me why larger capacity chippers are not more readily available on the UK market. It seems true......things are just bigger in the States!!
  22. Trans-Atlantic Special Brew courtesy of High Scale....
  23. I did have a sneaking suspicion Ed.
  24. TAZERs can be fun!! Bollocks to Chicago and muppets I can handle......just not total muppets.
