What Hollands said - If he is prepared to behave like that over £75 then he must have some issues....Just make it clear that your life is too important to waste time on people like him. I agree with Shrek in principle but some people revel in this particular kind of dispute. You never know Mark you may get a call from someone like him who needs your help - in which case he can pay the difference for their petty attitudes.

Pics??

Not sure about the CE marks but the chinstrap isn't as far as AFAG recommendations go, unless they changed it recently...
-
Nicely put together Reg! Inspirational stuff!
-
Well done on fixing the site Steve! and the work you do which keeps it running seemingly faultlessly...
-
Sounds like a good deal!! could donate some brash and more but the journey is a bit far... Good luck with getting that sorted - and hope you have a great time at the festival
-
Nice work David!! Hope you found the thermal imaging useful? I love all the old reference photos, must be great to work somewhere with a documented past
-
That burr elm is a fine piece of wood!! Nice work Matt
-
That looks fantastic Pete!! Well done on the MOT always feels like an achievement...

Nice!! We should be allowed to cover ourselves for unpredictability (Or F.ups) as it won't be the customer who is out of pocket due to circumstances unforeseen! I don't think they would be prepared to pay for full aerial visual inspections before each and every job.

I have found that as I am learning - early on it was easy to be put off from just looking at things from the ground.. Can you put a give or take factor on the price? Ie. allow for the worst case scenario so you have some sort of cover in case things work out harder than they look? The times they are easier is a bonus and when it is harder you are covered. As mentioned cashflow is the key - ie. better to have lots of jobs with less profit than few jobs with bigger profit. Any days when your equipment is not working is a loss

Good posts B101....eye opening and interesting. Sure you could make something of use with that frame David just beware the limitations as illustrated..

This is something to definately keep a closer eye on!! Volcanic ash sounds like they very worst thing for a chainsaw

I don't imagine them to be particularly toxic but you could wear gloves when pulling

Blimey!! Looks like that was a close one...Before pics would be good some funny looking branch unions there - Was it inspected recently at all??

Is that why you're warming up the Landy David...

Nice post Xerxses!! Would love to be able to do that! You can sign the petition here: Greenpeace | Votá por los bosques ***I assume it is ok to post link Steve/Mods***

I love the atmosphere created by approaching storms!! Captured beautifully in your pic David!!
-
Nice pics Hannah!! Looks like there is some signs of retrenchment already??
-
Great pics David!! Looks like you all had a good time! Can see I am going to have to get myself back up to Scotland before long

Yup!! Morning ....body clock is pretty regular here...I think I should start doing something that tires me out
-
Wierd!! I guess its an insect type thing...but equally could be funghee

Nice Car!! First car officially registered to me was a Mk2 GTI in Atlas Grey - this was in 97/98, I drove that until it died. Still got a GTI fetish and own a Mk1 Driver and Mk3 16v. When I first started driving I did have the pleasure of running around in one of these with a massive 652cc and two cylinders...was certainly different..
