  1. Bloody Hell!!! So glad it turned out OK. When some thing happens to your kids you just feel so helpless, and just wish you could change places with them. Few weeks ago I dreamed that my youngest got run over, I had that dream thing where you hope its a dream and then you wake up. Felt so relieved but, upset as well, it really shuck me up. So I can not begin to imagine the roller coaster of emotions you have been on. Good luck for the new year too you and yours.
  2. Heart breaking story. Thank you for all your work. Come on lads lets all dig deep and give what we can, will you ever spend a penny on a more worth while cause?
  3. I don't think there is much difference, my parts list covers both. I think they just up the pressure on mine to get a touch more lift. But with all my extensions, Pete's will probably lift more.
  4. Mines a pk 10501d My mog was more expensive to buy and maintain:001_tt2: OH wait..................... we're talking about good things....................bugger:sad:
  5. I could interject here..............but I won't
  6. Very nice!! sorry too be a bit thick, but what does "(sic)" mean?????
  7. I find the house roof is the best water proof, if its hoofing it down stay home!!!
  8. Very good!!!! You have great skill!!!!!! Is it an Eagle or a Cock??????????
  9. Good point!!!!! I started using a saw nearly 20 years ago, would be felling and logging up dead Elm's in my shorts and trainers. I was only cutting my own fire wood.

  13. I feel sure you will not be disappointed!!
  14. True, but he could get free training for many other industries, which may hold better prospects for the future. If tree work did not work out, then he would have to pay for his own training for a different path. Matt, I'm not say people can't make a decent living in our line of work, but as you of all people know, it not easy. I would hate to think I had encouraged some one to use their "one off opportunity" at training to come into an industry that is hard at the moment for even the well established, only for them to find its not as rosy as some had claimed.
  15. If I thought I needed MORE PPE than we already have, I would quit.
