    While this may be true, the HSE treats everyone as if they have the ability of the poorest worker.

    Clearly you were mistaken, but just because you over estimate your ability, does not mean every one will. Have you stopped cycling?

    Oh dear, where to start:001_rolleyes: Why are you commenting without watching the whole video? It's not about being cheap, it's about maximising profit, which reduces the amount of work that is needed, which frees up time for more important things in life than working, imo.

    Enjoyable video Reg, thanks for taking the time:thumbup1: Totally agree with every thing you said. Every thing is about money. Refresher training, Trade associations, most of the HS BS, etc, etc….. there is generally some talentless wannabe behind it, wanting to make a few quid off the back of the working man. As for assholes telling tails and stirring the manure, they are every where mate, mores the pity
  7. There was a lot of great music in the 80's and there is still great music today! There was crap then and there still is!!
  8. Would have been better hit harder IMO, then they would look well after some regrowth.
  9. They will fit no problem. The tyres are no different for split rims, I think the idea is just that its easier to change tyres without special equipment or great deal of sweat.
  10. That was a waste of good spare parts
  11. Just incase you don't get the reference, just watch the last minuet [ame] [/ame]
  12. You do that little buddy you're doing real well, keep it up sport
  13. I think the thing none vat registered people forget is that they are paying HMRC virtually every time they buy anything. At least if your vat registered you get to claim some of it back:biggrin:
  14. I'm sure your right, but your still on a winner. The key thing IMO is that your average end user is not going to bother about 5%, so why would you not register? And even if you had to swallow the 5% yourself, the claim back on plant and fuel etc, would be well worth registering
  15. Its not a vat bill, we collect vat on behalf of HMRC, because we collect the tax for them, they allow us to claim back the vat on our purchases. Anyone buying in round wood to process and retail should vat register, its a no brainer, your reclaiming at 20% and collecting at 5%. HMRC have just changed the flat rate scheme as people are profiting, the flat rate scheme is very poor compared to 20% V 5% situation with domestic fuel.
  16. Ok, if you have sold £35K worth of logs do you not think you would be looking to restock? You would only need to buy £3K of round wood to be back at the point where HMRC are paying you
  17. Except thats not what you said, you called "utter bollocks" the statement that log sales would need to be at least 4x the value of timber purchases before vat would need to be paid to HMRC. Your now changing your tune.
  18. I trust you only left the bar and chain in the tree?
