  1. Exactly, I always ask myself "how would I feel if my mum was trying to pass this way". I'm no fan of H&S nonsense, but any decent human being with give a thought to others
  2. I was waiting for that In my defence, I was agreeing, not mocking, although I know you enjoy both
  3. Not seen it, which would suggest the rebrand is maybe not going so well??
  4. We can always rely on you for an inspirational post Jonny
  5. So 75% of your turnover is profit?? If so you are running a very tight ship!!, IMO, wish I could manage that!!!
  6. Good thread!!! Glad I'm not the only one, I'm making a real effort this year to recapture my "can do" attitude.
  7. Presumable your don't pay your "workers", staff is normally the biggest cost in most businesses, so I'm surprised your costs are too high?? Are you charging enough??
  8. Brilliant firm!!! Very good to deal with, common-sense approach, not the usual "computer says no" attitude too many firms have. I would recommend them to anyone!!!
  9. At least you could have foreseen there likelihood of them growing taller, although there should at least be scope for discussion and compromise, you should be prepared to contribute to the cost of any works, as you will be benefiting.
  10. The Butler boys are over there I think, they used to come on here.
  11. Trees may be necessary, but putting them where they block the view isn't, simply plant trees where views aren't blocked, its hardly rocket science:001_rolleyes: Also coppiced tree are more beneficial (environmentally) so trees can be managed in a way that has less impact.
  12. Pretty sure it has to be on an invoice, not sure about a quote.
  13. Not at all, I posted pic's of when I smashed my face up didn't I, pretty sure I was wrong that day Just being honest, I don't recall ever thinking I was going to die, but as I say that could well be due to my lack of perception, not the fact that I have not indeed been close to my end, but just got lucky
  14. I'm not sure I ever have mate, I think I may be a little to optimistic, or may just unrealistic
  15. Well if they were just brokers, you could not rely on them to be good if you came to claim, it would depend on who they had put you with.
  16. I agree that cutting trees that were there before the houses is wrong, however I do feel for people who have enjoyed a view and then get it blighted by trees. There are places round here where the council have planted trees that are slowly removing some fabulous views
  17. I'm pretty sure the parts are the same or at least interchangeable .
  18. Do any of you lads with processors that run chains use tungsten tipped chains? I really like the tungsten tipped blade on my 350.
