  1. Its a real shame, yesterday and today have been really nice, mostly sunshine with just the odd heavy shower.
  2. But thats what farm subsidies are, surely???
  3. Yes but if the government would just pay 50% of my costs I'd be delighted!! in fact 40% would great!!! or even 30%!!! come on!! lets be honest any help would be great!!!!!!! Please give me an example of any other industry that gets paid NOT to produce:001_huh: How cool would it be to get paid not to cut trees down!!!!!!
  4. This years weather has been quite extraordinary, we are used to coping with the normal wet weather we get, but this week we got a months rain over night.
  5. OP did your listing state "no over seas bidders"????
  6. If money is taken from your account without your express permission you can instruct your bank to retrieve the money forthwith, I know because I've done it.
  7. She was bound to win, she's actually bigger than most blokes, which does give her a bit of an edge over most girls.
  8. This situation is far from uncommon, large public bodies prefer to deal with a few large organisations rather than lots of small ones. Take the maintenance of our Mways, the contract as a whole goes to the likes of Mac alpine (sp) they then sub the veg control work to the likes of fountains, who then often sub that to others. Trying to side step this and get in on the top floor is often very,very difficult and tends to burn many bridges if tried.
  9. Certificates mean very little these days, all "active" policies are logged on the police computer, if its not on there your not insured, if you cancel your policy or don't pay your premiums it gets taken off the system.
  10. Sounds like your minds made up Not sure why you started the thread??????
  11. I would imagine its before tax, as people have differing tax codes, so its not posable to know what each person will receive after tax.
  12. Working today in this weather!!!! maybe 10years ago when I was building up the business and paying off finance on equipment, but not now!!!! Also my RA said it would be dangerous to work in such conditions
  13. Talk about biting the hand that feeds. If you are quoting the amount you want, getting the work and getting paid, whats the problem???? You may just find you end up with nothing.
  14. I still have my paper licence
  15. A farmer friend told me he had heard that apart from the odd better day here and there this weather is all we can expect until December!!!
  16. So we could see your handsome face???????
  17. I recon it could be the husband filming and his father cutting.
  18. Birch reduction from today. Customer very kindly emailed me some picks, so thought I would share, nothing to exciting I'm afraid.
