  1. Sorry, but its can't be an emergency job, or you would have stayed and finished it.
  2. Who with? I have similar cover for just over £1k
  3. I'm very much a function over style kind of guy, much to my wife's annoyance give me comfort over fashion every time.
  4. Bit over kill on an easy mornings work for two guys, IMO.
  5. Helicopter would be better

    poplar

    Dry wood burns with lovely flame, wood thats wet is a total pain. Dry wood burns and gives you heat, wet wood will not warm your feet. Poplar, Elm, Ash, conifer or Oak will not burn if they are soaked! Don't be fooled by pointless rhymes, come on boys move with the times!!!
  7. Would you buy 60 tons ?
  8. Yes but who pays that??? Theres always talk of that kind of money, but when the time comes no one wants the write the cheque
  9. Bit of a trail from the Isle of White to the Isle of Man.
  10. Went straight from site, kicked a big hole in the invoice for the client, everybody's happy
  11. Yes some was very good, some pretty shook, but that was by far the best offer I had been given. The fire wood boys were not that keen and the best other offer for milling was £60 per ton. PS. I had to pay the haulage.
  12. In 20 years of trading I've never had a contract.
  13. I sold a nearly three arctic loads in August, I forget how much per cube, but for easy reckoning it was £87.50 per ton.
  14. It has to be an "arrestable" offence, for you to legally perform a citizens arrest.
  15. Every hedge I've ever reduced has alway headed upwards again.
  16. IME with Laylandi, its more about what you leave than how much you remove. A 95% reduction is fine, so long as there is sufficient greener left they will be fine, the only future problem you can have is the bigger timber of the stems rotting away, which can eventually lead to the hedge falling apart, but it takes years.
  17. I guess you got cleaned out then......................with only having the axe
