  1. Hi Dave! Some nice pic's! Hows the chipper?

  2. Another trick is to start following THEM instead!!
  3. That OK if your NOT the boss, if you are you can't really afford to miss a call! I'm taking a call in this shot.

  8. NO!! not unless some one is going to pay me?
  9. Yes! I always have the heater on in the mog on the way there!.
  10. Not many people coming up with prices.
  11. If the first quote is a joke? I most have lost my sense of humor..............cause I just don't get it
  12. Well why not post the reason you are asking? Instead of a sarcastic comment and a "bored" smilie !
  13. Hhhhhmmmm!! who could you mean?? TOTALLY agree!! Good advice, IMO!!
  14. I only paid £200 for it!! It has no rust, its 2L so goes like stink! And it sure beats going to the APF in the mog!
  15. I take it you only take on a job after you have been given a FULL explanation of the reasons for the work being done and have given YOUR APPROVAL!! I guess thats why you never post pic's of your work! as you will have none
  16. When you get there, don't block the gates!! Please form an orderly "Kew"!!! Bum,bum!!! Sorry can't help it.
  17. Because I'm a rough b%st$&d and know I would reck em! Also I have used Bashlines for years and like alloy
  18. I did a very large Beech once, that the local dimwits had been using as a fire place, it was burnt at least 85% of the way through!. There was a crescent of timber about a third of the way round that was 6"to 8" thick at the thickest point and tapered to nothing at each side and the thick bit had a crack that you could see though! The stem would had been 40" or so if it had not been burnt. I could not fell it, there was no were to put the cut! I was a little concerned about climbing it as it had a big round crown so the weight would have really shifted. So I threw a 3/4" rope over one of the big limbs and gave it a tug with the mog.......solid as a rock. So I climbed it and crashed the top out, we filed my timber trailer twice with just the top. Trees are very, very strong!!
  19. I have 06 Disco 3 and a "P" reg Alfa clover leaf, I can never make up my mind which to go in when quoting? Does the Disco make me look successful and thus good at the job? or expensive? Does the Alfa make me look like I'm struggling to make a do? or modestly priced?
  20. Oh yes!! They can get a touch of it a recover,IME. But if they get it bad they lose their structural integrity and become dangerous, again IME
