  1. I was, this new fandangled phone technology is top notch. Although I wasnt doing much since its Friday. Actually I was busy counting my hoards of cash from being a greedy employer. [ATTACH]39224[/ATTACH]
  2. Just a quick heads up if anyone is getting a new contract. Be careful if its with o2 or vodaphone if you use a lot of data ie surfing the tinterweb as there data bundles are going to be very poor.(there changing them for the worst)
  3. Made me chuckle, no offense Mick just got Vic and Bob (shooting stars I think) singing to Mark Lamar "He's a 1920's con man"
  4. I knew it all along! People on tv arent funny unless there lines have already been written. I hope they both get the piss taken by all there mates for that most embarrassing little episode. I hate watching stuff like that.
  5. I don't know, how much does a tree surgeon earn................ There is a punch line somewhere I presume!
  6. If someone would like to condense what its on about it would be very much appreciated.
  7. Is that a bit of blood below the whipping? Dangerous stuff eh!
  8. That one has more strands and only one slash of red where mine has 2. I thought it was a yale rope but the others have it right as marlow by the looks.
  9. Hey honesty is my middle name. I never lie, unless maybe for self gain, plus sometimes to bring others down and maybe occasionally to big my self up and look hard but apart from that I'm as honest as the day is long.
  10. I would say everyone of us has had that thought at some time or another, if not you havent been in the game long enough.
  11. Tbh I think if there was a lot more grassing up then the world would be a better place. Anyway I wouldnt have grassed the stihl dealer up because I am too damn lazy.
  12. Tis the devils work:thumbdown:
  13. Now I am confused. Theres loads of jobs I wouldnt like to do so I dont.
  14. I thought walnut too or Ailanthus altissima.
  15. Excellent photos:thumbup1: I doubt there are many heartlessness enough buggers out there to not stop on a job like that. Although if it was 2 day old pidgeon chicks I'm not sure I would feel the same way though. An I know that is hypocritical and against the law.
  16. Depends how much work you have got on and if the job has to be done in x amount of days. Personally I would take longer with less men which would mean more money in mine and my mens pockets rather than subbies. If you had 2 climbers and 4 men on the floor you would also want a nice big 12inch chipper and 7.5 tonner truck to make it work. IMO.
  17. Your supposed to remove their washing line not use it to pull the tree over.
  18. Love that bit:thumbup: I work the above out at 13 man days so thats £230 per man day. Sounds high to me but probably about right for what plenty of others seem to charge. Going by my £150 per man day on big take downs I'd be just under 2K
  19. Well its a better color for a start and also a more realistic price. Other than that I would say theres not a lot of difference. Seriously though, it does look like its better built.
  20. I just cant understand why people complain about the price after the work has been done! They obviously agreed the price before you started.As long as you do what you say in a professional manner and there happy with the end result what's there to complain about. Would they have been happier if you had gotten rained off half way through or had a mechanical breakdown therefore taking 2 days to do 3 hours work. Bet they would have thought they had got a bargain then!
  21. I dunno I just listened to Colonel Jessop in the film A Few Good Men. I get all my knowledge from the TV and not real life. I think that also when people dont obey orders people die unnecessary too. My last sentence makes no sense to me so I dont expect anyone else to understand it.
  22. I think they are totally different phones tbh. My misses has the iphone which is a brilliant phone but I wouldnt want one and prefer the desire. Does things completely different to the iphone, which is where the problem lies to iphon users imo.
  23. Lol chill out. Hence my mention of the word 'vocation' which you missed out. It would seem many police are there just for the money and not to make a stand as Dean says. It would also seem that many who would like to make a stand have been battered into submission by red tape and prob couldnt care anymore. Being in the police is something I certainly wouldnt want to do but if many of you feel that strongly than maybe you should.Thats the type of people the forces need. Well it seems something stopped them,probably someone on the other end of the mic telling them to follow at a distance.If so I believe they do have to follow orders just like soldiers even if they think its wrong. I dunno the police constantly get a bad rap no matter what they.
  24. You both missed your vocations in life. Get to copper training school. No doubt the police should have and could have done more but I bet loads of them are sick and tired of being reprimanded, sacked etc when they do take things further than they should. Really there shouldnt have been a mad man with a shotgun and rifle on the loose. Did he own the guns or steal them?
  25. Although it can be called the 'bravo' is that any ungayier? Top phone though.
