  1. Don't sound good does it , a large chain letting that slip through the fence
  2. This is all a fib...your just taking me for a ride....
  3. I hope I haven't been saddled with a packet.
  4. Don't eat them, they will give you the trots....
  5. Neigh Lad!, they are part of my stable diet!
  6. I'm glad it has turned up in time Kev, I gave birth to a set of jugs the other week when I went through the factory to see bare chassis on the floor and I thought that one was yours! Thank god it wasn't and yours was inthe previous batch! Hodgey! A QuadTrak is listed at that£25+ change thou.
  7. At that price? Why would one consider it? No doubt that it does chip, but any better than something that costs considerably less but that is still "mainstream", I doubt so.
  8. Ho, ho, ho... I've advised similar people that their machines do not comply with relevant machinery directives and got short shift for my trouble!
  9. $45k? What is the exchange rate. They appear to be dear here too for what goes into them!
  10. A firm in Essex which runs a raft of 1928 SafeTracs had one stolen and that was fitted with a tracklock, they then had the fleet fitted with tracking immobilisers and watched the screen as another traveled along a main route then "ping" it disappeared off of the screen! If they want it, they'll have it!
  11. Simple answer - cost! If a fancy key cost £200 and a pad was another £500 but it didn't stop it from being stolen orbmade it work any better, would you pay for it?
  12. I'm off to LAMMA, we won't have a stand there this year but I'm trying for one at next year in Peterborough. But I'll certainly look out for it jext week.
  13. Hey Dean, did Bandit build the Toro badged things then?
  14. Sorry, added a picture of a tracked version. Try this one...
  15. It has just been reported that another brand new, GreenMech Arborist 150MT34TD has been stolen. Very similar to the photograph with serial number 12560 was stolen in the Birmingham area last night from locked premises. Contact through me if it appears please.

  16. So sorry to hear of both crimes. I hope that it doesn't put you off this industry. Good luck for the future...
  17. "Lady Garden"? Christ, that would be acreage surely!!!!
  18. I have just been informed that a GreenMech CM220MT55D was not returned from a hire in the Huddersfield area just before Xmas. The "hirer" produced false id and records etc before taking the machine away and subsequent inquiries show that he has committed this type of offence before with general plant and machinery. For those who frequent Plant Auctions and Sales, please keep your eyes open for Serial Number 6073. I understand that when previously caught, he was from the Leicester area. Any information will be forwarded to the original owners and treated with strictest confidence.
  19. Nowt wrong with liver and onions! With thick gravey, mash tates, leeks and broadbeans!
  20. It is a chaff cutter! There is one in the grounds of the chapel in Castleton, on the road out to Mam Tor.
  21. As Pete says..... Not bad a tool for some tree works and landscape stuff - we still use the same mechanicals on the current build although with a bigger engine. It has been quite a good seller since released in 1997 when it won prizes. Best wishes in your hunt....
  22. I know a girl who climbs in crotchless pants, apparently, you csn get a better grib on your rope!
  23. Congratulations! Very best wishes to you all! Here's to a happy conclusion!
