Done! Ty:biggrin:

Circumvent the need for a chainsaw 'licence' and just do what you did with your i.d when you wanted to get into pubs underaged. Just photocopy some-one elses! Bingo! Ty:laugh1:

We have been contacted for the second time by a chap with a knotty problem. Property with a lake that is part of a system that feeds a canal. The access to the property is very limited, down a narrow waterside track cut into the lakeside banks and lined with large leaning trees. In particular, there is an oak leaning to heavily it has fissured and could go anytime. Problem is, this access track is used daily by the family car. Client also has an obligation to keep the lake clear of debris so just felling the tree into the lake is not an option unless it can be removed. Question is...how? We can't get any decent sized machinery along the track, the families car only just does it! One option we are considering is a helicopter... After all, it may just be a hiding to nothing but you never know...the quote may be accepted:001_rolleyes: I wish! Any-one out there with any experience using helicopters to remove fallen trees or heli-logging perhaps? Regards Ty Oh, I will try and get some images next time I'm passing.

Licence...? I thought it was merely a 'certificate' but I may be wrong of course... Ty

Well I guess that's a fair point of view. I'll just run it past Saatchi and Saatchi in the morning... Ty

I don't understand your posting footage of a 7 year old machine? I mean, you don't get Toyota pushing old models or Next yesterdays fashions. From a fellow arb, why yes but not a supplier. Regards Ty

Moving to Europe as an employee or self employed still requires language skills that few have. Its not greener here on this side of La Manche, just differently coloured... If you can't make it back home then in all probability you won't make it here either. But you will have a real life adventure even if it does lead to divorce, lost capital and confused kids. Ty

Aw no...P*** off! Ty:laugh1:

I think its an advert for GreenMech...hhh! (oops, does that count as flaming on here...?) Ty

Bob, We have several days in the area coming up near Lanoee which is between the 2. Call by why not? Send me a contact number. Regards Ty

Really, I think that the rule of a good practical joke should be one that can be undone without any lasting damage and one that you would tolerate yourself. Ty

When I was a student, I worked in the local village Co-op. One day I caught a female shoplifter and although I couldn't detain her due to flailing dirty fingernails and flying spittle, I did get hold of her bag. Inside, all sorts of horrible drug paraphernalia AND a prescription and bottle of 'Pubic lice and scabies treatment' This, I opened up, tipped some away and left it in the female staff toilet where of course even the cleaner wouldn't touch it. All week, speculation about who had lice and constant bitching amoung the ladies hhhh! After that, I filled the ladies toilet cistern up with red food dye... Happy days... Flint

I lied about the wife... Ty

C.E.O overseas client accounts... Well, I look after the ex-pat clients so dress that up as you will. Ty

Recently, we moved a pile of firewood to make it look like some-one had been helping themselves. Then stuck a wee handwritten sign (in French) saying Free wood help yourself. When Didier the woodman saw this he went...#!*$£!#...no, worse than that even. He marched around to my business partners place and tried to kill him! Seriously! It took me hours to calm him and even today he still believes he was robbed. Some people are just so...pants. Didier even told me that if I had slept with his wife he wouldn't have batted an eyelid but touch his woodpile... So I went with his wife...hhh! Ty Ty

The 'Intimidator'...? More like the 'Dominatrix' GGGGGRRRR-MEAOWWW! Ty:001_cool:

I've got the top half of one and not a bad thing to say about it... Ty

The Scots have a long history of being bought by English gold...hhh! I'm sure Mr Blair is a man of tradition:biggrin: Ty

I'll remove this post once we have agreed on a suitable trade-in for our HB20 and a fat discount on our next grinder... Ty

Dean chips straight into his wallet...hhh! Honestly, Would you buy a chipper from a man who wears these? I pinched this image from Deans facebook page and thought I'd expose his fashion sense to the arb world at large... Ty

[quote name=Bing!;817285 We have had that style of grinder for many years' date=' they do the job very well but need a lot of physical effort,(and now suffers carpel tunnel in both arms).....[/quote] I had ours out today. A 50cm oak stump done in 30min using red teeth with 1 hours use. Beautiful chips flying today, a real breeze to use on a level lawn with its pivot action. Only is when the going gets deep to get at a root plate does my 63kg suffer balancing it. It is not the most stable of machines being horrible to use on slopes but I normally get around that by digging a wee terrace for the wheels. Still, it is rare I refuse a stump due to its location. Had ours 2 years now and the price has not gone up. I believe any grinder is better than no grinder, excellent add on sale. Ty

Thunderbirds are GO!

Sorry, no offence ment, I thought it was gentle teasing and having a wee laugh but each to his own... Ty

Too right, you don't want to sub that one out eh...? Ty:001_rolleyes:

Cheers, I was wondering this... So if we were to 'upgrade' then should it be to a 35hp+...? Ty
