  1. I'm mainly a rough Basteard,I've cut myself a couple of times and hurt myself on the job in numerous ways,but as an ex forces boss said once "If you make it to retirement without breaking any Bones or gaining permanent Scaring you've not been trying hard enough". Its a tough job,do it long enough its going to hurt you sometime.
  2. Agree. I feel that the ex forces guys know how to listen and know how to do.
  3. I bought one of these for my Climbing kit.Its really nice but because it to nice to get battered on the Job,I use it to store precious things like Pornography and Narcotics.
  4. I havn't and to be honest this sounds like a Customer you don't want. "Oh hello Mr Builders Merchant,now just how many Grains of Sand to the Ton,if you please!
  5. On the up side,those Police Cars could have some Wicked Seat Covers!
  6. Top shelf Stockbridge! Look forward to seeing some more pics!
  7. Apprenez à utiliser une grue baise avant de prendre sur un arbre très grand, Muppets
  8. I think it would depend on how many Tree Surgeons there are in the area.The more firms,the more the demand.
  9. Sounds like you had to much Trailer and not enough Tractor.
  10. She is more accustomed to a Steel helmet.
  11. Nothing.I asked for it to be removed It showed the business name of the guy who runs it and I havn't asked him if its alright to show him/his gear to milions.
  12. Got to have a bit of a go...
  13. I met a Policewoman on the flight back from the States last week. I would have classed her mental age at about 15 because. Guns are Bad. Single Mothers are the cause of most social problems She "Likes it when people die suddenly" because she is called out and gets overtime. She likes driving fast. And the best one,"Travellers arn't worth booking,cos you line yourself up for so much greif and they don't show up in Court".
  14. You Tell Lies. Landrovers never get stuck and to suggest that one was Stuck on Pavement is quite frankly preposterous.
  15. Does it have zero Hydraulic function or is it just the Tracks?
  16. WARNING:There is a Adult word at the end of this Video. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVgE33UhbTY[/ame]
  17. Winter:Cooper Snow Tyres with Studs. Summer: BFG AT's.But I might get some MT's next year as the AT's are looking a bit sad.
  18. What I ment was that ELG claimed that the lower prices were a product of High Population.New Zealand has a low population with cheaper Saws at the time Stevie Bought his 192. Here are up to date exchange rates.XE - The World's Favorite Currency and Foreign Exchange Site
  19. How long does it take to process 5 cube? Your time + expences+machinery investment will tell you your margin.Look at that to find out wether your too cheap or not. I get £110 per cubic or Split Green Oak,but thats not important because I don't live in the UK.Even at that price its too cheap around here,I do it because I like it and the buyer collects.
  20. Ok........ So when the NZD to £ was 3:1 and New Zealand had 3.5 Million People,how come the Saw was 70% less than in the UK?
  21. Just got back from a visit to the States,066 with Full wrap handle and 36" Bar and chain............... £600 MS192 with 16" Bar and Chain........ £200 Surely the European market is bigger than the American one,plus these prices were at a dealer in a one Horse Town in California.
