Had a request for a special sign, so of course we sorted it. Thought you might like it.

If you go for the HPM, it's a lot cheaper on my site, no eBay fees to pay.

We hire out a GreenMech Quadchip and have no problems with it. Considering it goes out on hire, abused by people and needs very little work we think it does us very well.

Are you sure it's a crack, as you will get a bit of oil seeping out overnight from the oil pump.

Can you afford to stay there if you place becomes empty for whatever reason. If so then go for it as you have pretty much made your mind up by posting it, if you didn't like the idea it would have never got this far. Hope it all works out for you.

Thank you to all that came along to Capel and to Rich Rule and Plippy for helping out, good to meet up with you all again. Also a big thank you to Les Cork from Oregon and Richard from Kingswood training for giving up there time to do demos on the 2 days. :thumbup:

Just got back, well knackered but good to see all the faces again and a few good pints in the pub. Shame the numbers were down, but we still had a good show.

Great photos John you can make the most boring thing look great.

These had me cracking up.:lol: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9c8FJ19yVE]YouTube - The Penguin Dilemma - Translation[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDxrfEeRYAk&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL]YouTube - Booba's New Shoes - The Translation[/ame]

Maybe you need one to get your new big felling lever on site.

OK it's on now and they are in stock. ART Spiderjack 2 | F R Jones and Son :thumbup:

They will be going on the site tonight.

Hi I would have come and said hello if I had known you was there, we was a bit busy today though. Hope you get on with it OK, make sure you come back and give it a review after a couple of months.

Please someone help Les as he's doing some demos for me and we need some timber. There's a beer waiting for you, whoever you are.

Are you going to Capel this Friday/Saturday, if you are I'll have most of the harnesses there. If you pop along I'll sort you out a tree to hang in and give them a test. We find most people with back problems like the Skylotec or the Weaver.

No sorry, but I'll see if I can find out:001_smile:

Get a quote of another insurance company. They should not have to increase it at all as stuff we sell will be covered by the manufactures insurance anyway, I think they are just seeing if they can get a bit extra out of us.

From our side of it as a dealer, if I was doing splicing or had someone doing splicing for me, I can tell you for a fact there would be no insurance cover. I no a failure is unlikely to happen but it's not something I'm willing to risk. As a dealer the insurance company's are taking the pee as it is. I have no problem selling a hank of rope for the user to splice, but I like the peace of mind that if a splice on a rope failed I sold I would be able to pass the claim on to the manufacture. This is a letter from last week form our insurance company, just another £1500 pound to find for nothing. Justin, Our recent discussions refer concerning the retail of climbing equipment for arboriculture industry. Having passed on all the information I gleaned from you at our meeting and subsequent conversations to your insurers, we have 2 options going forward. Option 1 - to exclude all product liability claims caused from the sale and supply of climbing equipment. No change to the current premium. or Option 2 - Insurers to include cover for products liability for the climbing equipment as an increased risk. Additional premium of £1,590.00 including insurance premium tax. I appreciate that this is almost a 50% increase in the overall premium but would stress that if option 1 is taken then it will in no way effect the products liability cover on the other ranges of goods you supply. You may feel that you could live with the exclusion but would ask you to bear in mind that although any products claim would be passed down the line to the manufacturers, there could be legal fees involved in doing so. These would be met as part of any potential claim against you as supplier should you have the cover.. Could you let us know what you decide to do when you have had a chance to consider matters. Many thanks

Just so you know we do.

Big Congrats from all at the Jonesies to both of you. Enjoy it all as it goes quick mines 1 in 3 weeks, time flies and they grow up quick.

You will need to cut it with a good Stanley knife and then black tape the ends (You won't seal it with heat).

No problem, we do try our best. Chris is the man to thank I'll pass it on for you.

Just to let you guys know, latest is they are coming in in week 26, I would add a couple of weeks to that as they will then need to get to the dealers on top of that.

Send us your phone number and I'll give you a bell, also how would you get here that's a bit of a commute:confused1: This might be right up your street.

Bumpty Bump Bump.
