  1. What dog breed do you have? I take it you are thinking of taking your dog (s) with you?

  4. When you’re young and ambitious it is easy to make a decision like that. YOLO. Do it before birds, kids and mortgages IMO.
  5. Good decision. Have fun, learn loads and come back a better, all round tree worker. UK trees will seem like midgets compared to some of the trees you will see in Oz. Good luck.
  6. Do you work with Navin? Have we met? I used to do a fair bit of work with Navin. Climbed for him on Assessment days for his Arb Approved contractor status. Good guy.

  8. Tired after playing in the snow.
  9. gotta get to the dor tho 1st? It isn’t hard to use these tools, proof read, proof read again and send offers that are grammatically correct. You are not texting your friends.
  10. Good luck. I am trying not to be too critical here but learn how to form a sentence, use capital letters and punctuation. It may be trivial but the first impressions stand out. That was my first impression. If you send an offer out to a potential client, at least spell check it and use correct punctuation. There are plenty of tools out there to help. Don’t just take pride in your practical work. Take pride in offering your services in a professional, presentable manner. Good luck.
  11. “No replacement for displacement “
  12. Q: What did the egg say to the boiling water? A: I just got laid and you expect me to be hard again in 3 minutes!
  13. Not the two elderly gentlemen I was referring to. Edit: I see someone posted a picture of the Circus duo together with their lovely assistant. Both looked like a bit of a sorry sight. Kind of like an Arb version of mutton dressed as Lamb.
  14. Clowns. Sorry, I meant to say esteemed Arb instructors.
  15. There was a couple of court Jesters at the recent APF/Arb shows doing demonstrations in that comical get-up.
  16. 28 years old and with experience. What’s keeping you in the UK? Go travelling, go somewhere the industry pays better. See the world, have fun and save up whilst having fun. Use the experience and extra money to further your position in life. Good luck.
  17. I had extreme nerve damage in 3 finger in my right hand after I severed them. The first year was pretty painful. Anything touching the scars felt like and electric shock. I tried to get used to it by pushing through the discomfort and rubbing my hands on different textures to reduce sensitivity. It still hurts to this day and that will be three years in April since the mishap.
  18. ^^^ Pretty much what I said in not so many words.
  19. I was always under the impression that one side would be keen as you like and the other less sharp with a less acute angle. One side for clean wood and the other for not so clean wood.
  20. I saw this earlier today. A friend in London sent it to me. Cracked me right up. Dizzle Banter (@dizzlecomedian) • Instagram reel WWW.INSTAGRAM.COM 5,748 likes, 682 comments - dizzlecomedian on January 25, 2024: "Call who tho ?"
  21. TBH, when Insoaked it in Coca Cola over night and wire brushed it the day after. The results were pretty good.
  22. Elwell 4.5lb feeling axe that belonged to my grandfather. I have recon’d it a couple of times now. Last time I didn’t sand the handle that much. Coca Cola is great for soaking the heads and a wire brush to bring out the patina.
