    Oh dear!! This thread is approaching 5 years of age, imagine how well the replacement trees could have been doing, they could be really well established by now.

    You don't need to be round the stem, just a strong branch.

    Mandela could have reeked revenge on the whites when he took power, he could have taken the presidency for life, he could have been a Mugabe, he did none of these things. He called for peace and reconciliation.

    Did you also know that it was Mrs T who appealed to the SA government not to hang him, as was expected upon his conviction??

    I would think it has something to do with the fact that half the bark has been removed from the trunk, looks like its been hit by a vehicle. But regardless of that, if felling healthy trees makes you unprofessional I'm must be a complete rogue:001_rolleyes:

    Not thought of that to be honest I think my overdraft is 5% above base, so 5.5% I'm going call them and see if I could increase my overdraft to £15K. I really hate being in my overdraft, but I guess its just a state of mind, just need to adjust my thinking, as as you say it would make good business sense:thumbup1: Good job I'm better at cutting trees than business

    Yes thats unreal!!! How can it be legal for a bank to make a client sell to an asset stripping Co THAT THEY OWN!!!!!!!!!! Surely there will be criminal charges following this?????

    This is so true!! I know of a farmer who through the winter had an overdraft of up to £1M, the bank loved them, personal calls from their manager, Xmas cards, etc, they were hit by Foot and Mouth and ended up with £4M in their account, the bank suddenly had no interest in them at all.

    I'm very chilled I just find the term comical and was seeing if others agreed, clearly I've caused some offence, which was never my intention.

    Does most of whats discussed on here "actually matter"??? I thought that was sort of the whole point??
  22. skyhuck
    I always call it my "little saw" or "020". Never called a saw a "topper" in my life, thats the name of a hat surely???

    No its pretty good for an unsecured bank loan to a LTD Co. And its better than the Yorkshire who are trying to "lure" me back. If my credit rate was not so good I'd be looking at 12.9%. The days of keep money are long gone.

    Really???????????:lol::lol::lol: Yes, but thats because thats what you usually use it for "Topping":001_tt2: When I "top" trees I prefer a 66

    I moved to Santander a couple of years ago. The reason I moved was that Yorkshire Bank (who I had been with for over 25 years) started charging me for my business account. Yorkshire would not give me an overdraft on my business account, Santander gave me £5K straight away. Today I decided I wanted to borrow £10K. I rang Yorkshire, as my business manager was a decent guy and had aways done me a decent deal. They offered me a rate of 8%, but I would have to move my account back to them, they would "look at" giving me an OD, with an annual arrangement fee of £175, Santander charge me £50!! Rang Santander, they were really help full and offered me 7.9% I had thought of Santander as just a machine, with no interest in their clients, I must say I feel a little warmer towards them today
