  4. you could get round barrels that are the same size as the lock barrels and slide em in to where the lock barrles are. or something along those lines it made sence in my head and i just read it and it dont make so much sence but i hope you get the just of what i mean.
  5. so does that mean all the big delivery companies like the hgv companies that deliever stuff will go out of buisness?
  6. theres no need for it at all, do "they" know who done it?
  7. tommer i wasnt applying that huck is a newbie and i know you are winding me up, i was reffering to the being sent for the stuff that makes you lokk like a total muppet. i really should stop using the quick reply bit so i can add smilies.

  11. hopefully ill be in a full time job next year but will just need to wait and see. not nosy at all mate im selling due to running costs. thats pretty much the bottom line, thought i would be able to afford to run it but with fuel prices going up again i cant and the fact my saving plan didnt go to plan either. i rushed into buying it as well and theres a load of stuff i never took into account.

  14. hey guys, my land rover has been sitting outside the garage in West Kilbride, Ayrshire since thursday and last night (Monday night) my wheels were stolen, its the big black ones, four of them 3 on the car and the spare, garage has other inside it. This was done at 12:45am approx by 2 young looking guys wearing black hoodies in a small white van. thats all that was given as a description no reg n umber or nothing. the four wheels are black modulars, with cooper discoverer STT tyres size of them is 285/75R16, they look as though they are hardly been used thats how new they were spare has never been used. Garage cant do anything about it as my dad was told it would be at our own risk if it was left outside as the 1 of the hubs has collapsed so he couldnt move it inside, if anyone trys to sell you them or hears anything about them contact either me or the police please. although im selling up im total gutted, why cant peopleleave anything alone?????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cheers :'(
  15. in my honest opinion i dont think students learn anything at college, i done an NQ tree surgery course at kilmarnock college last year and to be quite honest, the only thing that the course done for me was help me pass my Nptc units, i did not pass my course as there was a big project to do which was worth half the course and thats what i failed on, i passed all my other units and tests but in the end i never passed my course. Since finishing my course ive had 1 job which was on the railway and its not the best way to learn, and im struggling to find a company thats willing to spend a bit of time bringing me up to specs and the other problem is the area i live in, dont get me wrong theres plenty of companies around that area but its just tyring to find the 1 thats willing to give me a chance, i gained cs 30, 31, 38, 39 and my first aid course, which is a great start but i have no real experience of working in the real world, in order to gain some experience of each and every ticket i think the colleges should do work experience for the students, i tried to get a job before and while at college but i was unable and im still struggling just now. Dont get me wrong the course i done was i think a good course it had a wide viarity of stuff in it but some if not a large percentage of it is totally useless unless i work for myself which im not happy doing due to my lack of experience.
  16. is that up at brisbon (not to sure of the spelling) primary school up the top of largs?
  17. youve lost me on that one tommer, if its one in largs i can have a look at the finished artical and let you all know how it looks.
  18. what school you doing it in mate?
  19. all the questions they will probably ask you will be in the ass questions and answers, although they may ask some basic climbing questions, i think i got asked when i wouldnt work in a tree and i answered if there was bats or nesting birds in the tree, they may ask they may not. good luck
  20. i dont have any gear like chippers and stuff, i have my saws and climbing ropes all im looking for is a company to get PL through for doing jobs here and there, can someone give me a rough price for it if possible?
  21. i never got it throught them but that was only because i totally forgot about it and then got all excited when i got the land rover anyway ill give thema try. Anyone got a number for the nfu thats near me? im in ayrshire scotland cheers guys
  22. good evening ladies and gentlemen, hope alls well, im looking for some help in regards with public liability insurance, basically im looking to get some extra jobs here and there so im looking at getting a very basic PL insurance policy can you good folks recommend some companies to get intouch with about getting it. cheers folks have a nice day Alasdair
  23. going to have too pull out of this weekend due to the bank and its shite charging system
  24. i was actually wondering that myself ive never had any emails like that before. but in saying that most of my emails go into my junk folder
  25. nothing to extreme yet only things i have bought for it so far is oil filter, fuel fitler, two 5L things of oil, sender unit, new lock barrels i think thats it. money doesnt buy happiness, owning and driving a land rover buys happiness.
