Mark Bolam is just up the road from there.

You'll enjoy it. Might even pick up a tip or two.

Have you seen Caddyshack, Dean?
-
I know, I was surprised as I usually find K1 a bit lame. That one was a slugfest though. Kong looked great didn't he? Didn't give Marshman a chance. The spanish archers at the end really finished him off! Muay Thai courtesy of Alan Keddle.

Not usually that much a fan of K1. A good fight is a good fight though. One of the nest K1 scraps I have seen. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNXGooSNEU4]bonkers K1 fight ~ Zambidis vs. Chahid one of the best fights ever! - YouTube[/ame]

Nice work tom and crew.

UV light may have been the cause of it.

I use the throw bag on splice most of the time. Never had any problem yet.

RIP Darryl. Terrible news.
-
Nice, looks lovely. You enjoying the trip?

I forgot the smiley.

Last time I spoke to Stevo he mentioned you had bumped up his wages to 57p/day, plus a packet of Amber Leaf. Tell him from me, he's doing well.

Spiderjackery III (plus two new SJ mods from ART)
Rich Rule replied to joe into trees's topic in Climbers talk
You disappoint me Tone. You have sold out and gone to the dark side. Next thing, you'll be raving about them there single line, Unicycle jobbies. :001_tt2: -
6t went off in a grain trailer in 2 pieces. The pick I had my hand on weighed 3t. On the max for the crane at that reach. Or so the buzzer was telling us.

Cheers mate.

A London Plane stem we went back to to take out today. 20t city crane.
-
exactly Rupe. Deerman, it has never happened to me, not saying it never will, but how would a half hitch not be able to loosened if the piece rolls?
-
Running bowline at the top under the chunk to be cut. Half hitch at the bottom. Sling timber and clip to line. Cut. Move running bowline down to below next cuttIng point. Remove slack in the line at the base with the half hitch. Repeat. KISS. Maybe, use something at the bottom to take the sting outta the impact.

Good luck mate, being freelance is a lot more about delicate work and not boshing out trees for G & T or City Sub. I have worked with quite a few ex guys from above companies and some of them when confronted with flowerbeds, greenhouses, fences etc end up breaking them as they are not used to this type of work. The main advice I would offer is to be honest of your skills. Don't big yourself up too much as you may come a cropper quickly. Likewise, don't sell your self short. As I said, good luck.

Transit and chipper stolen in Belvedere, Kent
Rich Rule replied to Mackely's topic in Stolen Equipment
Gutted for you mate. What's the company name? I am not sure I have seen you around by I will keep an eye out for the vehicle you described. What was the flavour of chipper? -
Good luck Bob.

Not an expert by any means but Drew B reduced the bury by 50% IIRC on the E2E spliced hitch cords. He also tested them to destruction. This was a while back, maybe he will be along to give a bit more accurate information.

Cant help on the girl front but we have 2 boys. My missus is Norwegian so Norse names were the obvious for us. Haakon - named after his G Bestefar on the Noggy side, also it means highest son or first born. Plus, Haakon was the king of the Vikings. Torstein - means Tor's (Thor's) Amulet or Hammer. His Bestefar is called Thor and he came out a right little chunketh, so the rock of Thor seemed to fit as a name. I think you can have an idea of names if you know the sex but they don't always fit. Best to wait and see. We were lucky as both names had appropriate meaning and suited them. We would also have been screwed as we had no backups - hehe! Good Luck on the birth.

The oldies but goodies!

Maybe so, tbh though, the last thing I would want after a long stretch of strenuous exercise is milk. Barfathon!
