  4. Started with 20 quid....... 'Dark Satanic mill' blacksmiths find new home WWW.BBC.CO.UK The move follows a 10-year search to escape a dilapidated aircraft hangar in Leith's once industrial hub. K
  5. ...... But since we are still running this topic. Two things. One : Decided ti have a nice pastie from my local ( very busy) petrol station in Town. Walki in - in my mask, see bloke from huge ( 200 trades plus site) building site next to garage - No Mask..... Wandering around picking stuff up. I go to till, hands full. He infront of me - Hi Vis jacket shows Site name and " Covid 19 Marshal" on back....... ( my hands were full so no phone pic, plus my brain had flipped inside out with the irony) Two : Gf has massage therapist round to do her knees n neck. Her husband recently retired as Hedge Fund manager in Town. She relates story of how husbands mate immediately on lockdown set up three Ltd company's an grabbed £50,000 per company from. GOV Assitance loan........ Now, hands up who thinks he will pay that money back.... Or just file bankruptcy ? Hmmmm ? At this rate we are properly f... ked. End of... K
  6. To be fair Kev, he botbers to spell correctly. Plus there are a few people on here with quite a lot of spare time on their hands. Also, some who delight on being contentious, hence my handbag notifications, a few are just foaming at the mouth swivel eyed loons with an axe to grind, if their medication for their back pain has worn off - i would just ban those fr a bit. Happily, Arb n For seem to be taking off economically a bit more now so we may see fewer posts like this. K
  7. Sounds like its a theives dream. So desireable and easy to find buyer. Wot are the police doing with all this camera network our tax money has paid for? Aylesbury from memory has a modern network with plenty of coppers in cars an ANPR cameras. Werent chucked in the back of a Micra, now, was it! K
  8. Clearly it doesnt Dempsey, cos the only thing that makes me watch somethin on the telly, is if they are in black and white with a tin hat on...... K
  9. Often overlooked on how fast you can do work with a hand saw. All that start / strop / cut / stop / grab / chuck or swing. Plus nice n quiet. Softwood easier. But have reduced big Oaks with just sharp Silky. K
  10. Definately get up a shitty huge Leylandii and take it to bits with a silky, give you an idea of whats in store ? K
  11. You get the VAT back on it an all , too. K
  12. Wot a great handle fr arbtalk ? but no, just in the usual books he has. K
  13. All the best for the poor girl, couple pics of chipper after a power wash should move it easily, on here, fingers crossed for her OP. K
  14. I hate stump grinding. My 'appence. K
  15. Pollard, bat box, done ? K
  16. @dan blocker on 3 or 4 crews i would probably go for proprietary arb software. But god help you getting some lads up to speed on it . A bolt together system would probably help yrself more. Dependent on yr client type. K
  17. ( crap for climbing in by the way- but ground use, no bother)
  18. Trouble is with all this. Any over support weakens the muscle mass around the joint- is why back belts are discouraged in Forestry, yr better building the muscle up. However i love mine on fr lifting an good place fr yr tape. K
  19. Parking battleships in fiords eh ? Wot were they thinking ? no wonder they lost ? K

  22. @Johnson we didnt drop many is my point ( too expensive and precise targeted) BAE systems hold the docs on all UXB in UK, yr first port for deep dig, but totally horrific on how much ordnance still littering Europe. K
  23. Definately a quality job he would be proud of and thats what matters. K
  24. As in?? Cant remmember the price of the one we had , think abt 60 grand ? 2012. K
