  2. If you are in pain its wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  3. My ropes gets washed by the rain and dried by use.
  4. I know, and a "fool" apparently, as I don't possess a hand saw
  5. The smart ones get "minted":001_tongue: I started 13 years ago with a Dihatsu F50 (which I bought for £1400, £800 of which I had to borrow of my mum) and a borrowed trailer. I now have over £150,000 of kit and owe less than £10,000
  6. Spot on ! The best gear is used by the "smart" Co's not the big ones:001_cool:
  7. I would be INCANDESCENT WITH RAGE, how dare they!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  8. Houses are built from "dead" wood!
  9. Could you not just look for the one with the flames coming out of it...................................
  10. Right so you think it's worth making the effort. Thanks for your feed back, think I'll try to attend and show willing:001_cool:
  11. I see. I'm all for standing dead wood and coronets ect's, but I don't like that one bit, if I was out for a walk and saw that one it would spoil my day
  12. Poor bugger! Do you not think the weak stem had gone and the remaining stem looked OK to me. Could you not have just monitored it for decay?
  13. OH DEAR! Not been topped though as they are cut back to growth points...........................right?
  14. Me no understand:confused1:
  15. Clearly more tight wads than tree men.
  16. I do wish you would read my posts, I did not say "offsetting", you seem to be so brain washed by the media term that you read them when they are not there! What I said was a simple statement of fact, if you cut down a tree and burn it and then grow a new tree you have produced NO carbon! As for my opinion, I really do not have enough "real" information on which to make an informed view, but my gut feeling on what I do know is that we are like a group of ants on the bonnet of a car, we have been hear for 2 hours when the engine of the car starts, we are convinced that we are responsible for the engine starting, because we have been here for 2 hours and it had never started before! what we do not realise is that the car starts this time every day.
  17. By data I mean facts and figures, IE, annual average temps for various years. Something that if often missing from all the hype we hear in the media. The fact that in recent years their has been more polar ice in the winters not less, in fact I heard that polar bears have been starving due the vast expanse of ice.
  18. I read on here somewhere, that rock climbing is more 2D whereas tree work is 3D, a good point,IMO. When I used screw gates they would some times tighten up so they were hard to undo or they would come unclipped, I have NEVER had that with a three way.
  19. I found Dagmar's posts most informative, they ain't that long, do you not read books? do you stick to comics? Also Dagmar backed up her points with real data. Is it a case of she ain't saying what YOU want so you don't like it?
  20. Do you not find that impedes the anti vibe?
