    Old Skool Cool

    Bet there is loads of old photos kicking about in albums and that's the problem with us oldies that took photos on film 🎥 Bet there are a lot on here that never put a film in a camera. Will have to dig some out and scan a few in 🤔
  6. Likely they can't read or they would of got a better job than been steves bitch If it's just to mark it up just use a can of car spray paint Won't be classy or smart but will keep enough of the colour to always be distinguishable 😇
  7. Ash ??
  8. Ezytreev and motion t5 here Spot on Possibly more than you need but more is better than less We attach photos and details but camera built in is not ideal but getting better in newer tablets tbh
  9. I got one from dealer and it's easier and cheaper than wasting a load of time messing about budging summat up. Not expensive and works perfect especially on impact gun and no piston ✋ Or wack screwdriver
  10. Any reason not to give away as pet bedding Neighbour has a hamster and mates have rabbits?
  11. Wish I was a few years younger This would be a great place to learn:thumbup:
  12. Got a wifi kettle can turn it on from anywhere and tell it to keep warm As long as I leave enough water in that is🤔
  13. Nice Looking forward to the finished pics:thumbup:
  14. We use it and always found the help desk very good I do believe they had someone leave so may be a issue with his replacement. I often email and ask for a specific person to contact me. Happy to discus if you want to pm your number
  15. Your the man Hope it settles down soon At least it should get better rather than back or head damage
  16. Just put it on the studs and angle it to the front and you can disengage it Dead easy and with bar and chain and sprocket still on
  17. You won't beatArborwear just google arborwear U.K.
  18. Best practice is now not to use 2 crabs and ideally use a closed system such as ring or cambium saver type that can not inadvertently be opened Or certainly that's what they said on last Nptc update.

    It was elm and done with skew and no anding as Mick said I used to avoid the skew like the plague now it's a chisel of choice and when giving lessons to beginners it's the second chisel I get them to use. Currently don't sell anything just swap for hugs and cakes:thumbup: Want it to remain a hobby
  20. Those 2 apples and the pair at the back look good enough to eat:thumbup:

    Getting festive ?
  22. I do Loler and try to do it as cheaply as possible but TBH by the time you have paid the insurance and time it takes it's not the great money earner you guys think though having read this I am going to put my prices up. Some firms that send their stuff are truly spot on with all the paperwork and traceability in place and it's a pleasure to do and the pay less as a result LikeY they would not be anywhere similar if the legislation didn't exist Others send a stinky bag with every crab sticking and statements like don't think my rope will pass as I cut it a few weeks ago So wtf are they using it and at least at some point they are now forced to sort it I have had a lot of kit that has been poorly aligned and wrong crabs in the wrong configuration which I bet 80% of arbs are guilty of:blushing: I have seen some shocking kits turn up Some just do it because they have to for electric or railway work. Though I will agree with most try to find someone that understands the industry kit you have. P.s I earn more per hr doing trees than doing loler and I enjoy doing trees more.
  23. Going to park my car on the road and when all the vehicles go past splashing it I will send them all a bill to get my car washed.. Or go for a walk though a farmyard and claim against the farmer for getting my shoes dirty There has to be some reality and just wait and it will rain and clean it foc
  24. The problem is the la have to pay to dispose of all the waste at the recycling plant It's not free for them so why should they dispose a lot trade waste which we all are aware happens even if not by you. It's not a local problem and is a national issue Unsure what the answer is but in Ireland you don't even get your bins emptied without paying a private company.
  25. Biggest advise is speak to an assessment centre you need one to take you through it and ultimately if they have no need you won't get any work.
