  1. Ring any of the insurance Co's that cover Arb/Forestry, there are some advertising on here.
  2. IMO, its better to always use a rope thats twice as long as the tree is tall (well to your TIP) so you don't need a stopper knot and can always get down in a hurry if things go wrong
  3. Its got nothing to do with the NFU, they don't write the law.
  4. My dogs don't even get to enter my home.
  5. You sure??? I'm pretty sure mine is engine oil with glue in it.
  6. Yes I've heard a removable tank is OK for work on private land.
  7. I would think an Izusu is wider than 5', what model is it??
  8. You need to drain the tank between white and red.
  9. Have they stopped making the 200 Justin????????????
  10. What do you drive??? a Reliant Robin???
  11. But surely once they have worn the clearance they need there will be no further wear, it looks to me like they are just settling in, I know you guys like your shiny gear, but this seem pretty petty to me
  12. We need to remember that the saw manufactures are being pushed to make there saw more and more environmentally friendly, this has to come at a price. If the EU had had their way we would not have two stroke saws any more, so I guess we should be grateful for small mercies!!

  14. That is truly evil, you should be ashamed of yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  15. Absolutly true Pete, but I can't see it ever changing. The problem is that the people at the top and the do gooders don't live amongst these people and cannot or will not believe that they choose not to work, they believe that every one wants to work but can't find a job .
  16. Yes I've had that!! I also had a lad who worked with me for a fair while and then just did not come in and would not reply to my calls or text's, so I went round, I saw him inside but he would not come to the door So his mother came out and told me he was quitting because I was working him to death!!! "Its killing him" were her exact words
  17. Indeed, which all conclude that most will not be affected.
  18. Years ago I got one in a vein in my forearm, it came up like and egg, I pulled it out and the blood spurted about 1M!!!!!!! But it soon stopped.
