Rich Rule

Come on. It isn’t a hoax as some people die. The virus is definitely real. Some get it and some get it bad. The whole Hoax issue is how the media have over hyped it along with the governments of the world. It is almost as if they are using it as an opportunity to meet their agenda. Personally I believe we should just be sensible abhor the whole thing, wash your hands, good hygiene has proven to be the best defence. Not masks. Not shutting down the economy. Not locking down the country. Then again if some individuals followed some of the guideline a bit more closely, maybe, the country try wouldn’t have had to lock down. Then again I can see where the doubts originate. I wouldn’t trust a politician or the British government as far as I could shit. That’s about 3 foot odd, in old money, as I am pretty tall!

Maybe so but the UK government admitted earlier in the month that a statistical anomaly meant that anyone who had tested positive and then died at a later date would still go down as COVID related. Are you suggesting that didn’t happen in the Nursing homes?

I had a Forst ST8 delivered from the Uk to Norway a couple of years ago. Paid delivery and haulage and the new my address. Haulage company called me a day before to let me know delivery time and it would be on a plant trailer. I live in an area with narrow roads and I explained it to them. Ok no problem say they. Next day a Polish delivery driver calls me to say he is stuck and can’t make the bend and has had to reverse and it waiting in a main road. I go over and the chipper is the last thing on a huge curtain sided trailer for the international haulage. I asked where is the plant trailer and he said where is my forklift? I said, in my pocket where do you think...! It was supposed to be on a plant trailer. He grumbled a lot and I said I would follow him to the depot, to which he said he wanted more money as it wasn’t in the job to drive back and forth, even though he had to go back there to drop the trailer. He then asked them for a forklift to lift it out the side. I made sure he reversed up to the loading bay and push it off by hand. I wasnt gonna allow them to drop the thing. He grumbled and moaned loads. I just told him thanks for bringing it back and if he wanted more money to speak to the haulier... or do his job in the first place and unload the machine and put it on a plant trailer like I had requested and paid for, instead of being a lazy twat, cutting corners for a early finish.

I use a protos occasionally and it gives me headaches, pretty much all the time. That is on the loosest setting and without the back cranked up. Vertex vent and Alveo vent fit perfectly fine. Try before you buy if possible.

More the viking legacy left in the North Eastern languages after the raids. Beck - Norwegian for small stream. Barn - Norwegian for child, NE call them bairns. Dal - Norwegian for Valley. North Yorkshire Dales. Gå Hjem - Norwegian for go home. Geordies say Gan yem.

Make sure the earth strap is fastened down correctly. Remove the plastic cover behind the clutch and it will be fastened I to the body to earth it. Definitely worth a check as it has happened a few times on both my saws.

Beautiful clear evening last night in Oslo. I saw a few shooting stars, some weird flashes that repeated around the same area and a slow moving light. Presumably a satellite.

Nobody can help you, until you help yourself. Why are you still working with him? There are usually three sides to every story, your side, his side and what actually happened. We may ever know the truth but do yourself a favour and be a master of your own destiny. Good luck.

Mainly because they are midline attachable. Plus my rigging line has a knot in the end which I would have untie to every time.

I burn lots of Pine and Spruce here in Norway. I do tend to squirrel away some nice hits in jobs when we do any fruit trees, large Elm, Ash or Oak. Got a nice collection seasoning for this coming winter... mix it in with spruce or Pine and everything is toasty.

Slightly different rules to I think you are used to. He isn’t a Bona Fide Sub Contractor so doesn’t need that insurance. He was working in a freelance Labour capacity. Seriously, if people stopped using the term Sub, Subby etc half of these problems would be resolved.

I lived and worked in Lewisham/Greenwich area for years. No one in that area could get a truck for a day for a 100’er if theirs had issues or required additional capacity on a job. I would base your charges on a 100 plus fuel per day. Plus vat if you are in that bracket.

As you were onsite it sounds like your job. The climber as you described was working in a Labour only capacity or freelance. Therefore, the responsibility is yours, unfortunately. If you remove the term ‘subby climber’ from your first post then it is a lot clearer. As for subbyclimbers, use the term freelance climber or contract climber makes the waters a lot clearer. Too many people use the term subby when they in fact are a long way from operating in Bona Fide Subcontractor capacity.

Just be prepared for every branch that is cut, three will grow back.

I hope knot!

RIP Alan.

Try doing a search on tree firms in the desired area and country. Then send them some emails, explaining your situation and CV. I very much doubt someone will see your posts and come offering a 5 star job with naked ladies to oil you down at the end of the day. Whereas, showing a bit of impotus and going out there looking, shows you have a desire. I would much rather hire someone who has shown initiative and contacted me. Good luck with your searches.

To be fair, I only clicked it because I thought it was a new type of skateboard trick.

And as usual, a quality piece of treework goes relatively unnoticed by the members on here. Members would much rather talk about politics, masks and other such bollocks. SMH.

Please mate... for the love of Bees. Boycott that Almond Milk shit. The Almond pollenation process in California is almost single handedly wiping out commercial bees colonies. BTW face masks don’t work according to the latest NHS stuff.

We once tried to shoot a shovel out of a tree with a pump action shotgun. The video is in here somewhere. In the end the shovel handle fell off and as far as I know the shovel head is still up the tree.

There does seem to be a common denominator in all the episodes you describe, regardless of equipment, brand and dealer.

Not had time to check the link yet but do they ship internationally?
