    @Paddy1000111 just downloaded Gerry Beraneks book from Educatedclimber. Com. 20 bucks which was the bible for climbing and tree works back then. The rope technical stuff is dated but his views and teaching attitude cannot be beaten. The print version is rare but this is a full pdf copy that fits in yr phone. K

    @Haironyourchest we all know one of those. K

    Dunno how you would even go around testing it, it has to be Type Approved, and how Much protection does it really give? K ( I can see Mr Stubby in it Robocopping abt at Halloween in his slippers scaring the horses and small children)

    Big commitment spooling up new software in Arb, so many checks and backups and even does the system integrate with yr clients?? Looked at a new one on here which looked promising, but I also made a system up off online form app which also worked well and easy on the user clients. Not expensive. Think it really depends on yr customer base - houseing associations and big landowner clients would prefer it as its immediately actionable. K

    Knew an old lad in Ingatestone, bare knuckle fighter in his youth, could plaster a curved wall in his sunday suit, not a speck on him, absolutely flawless. You actually could not believe wot you were seeing as he worked. ? K

    Good tale ? i love those old bits of MoD crap, always interesting. K

    The obvious failure on this is yr walking under tree and thin small branches catch between yr lid an yr canopy and frankly, the RA MS on this is hilareous. It IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN , a heavy branch section hits you and crashes you onto yr saw for example - it is making you complacent with canopy deadwood. Though i may buy it just for walking around Croydon at night ? K

    Would it save you £60 a month? K

    Interesting cabin style thing in background ? K

    Rake sand over. Reduces tripping and warns mower man to lift his cut. K

    I actually know that you open the tin first before eating ? K

    @Ratman put a tool in my hand and i can use it, anything. But a flappy bit of tin an drippy stuff - no chance ? K
  17. Khriss
    Looks cracking - can turn my hand to almost anything, but am fvckyng useless at plastering! K
  18. Khriss
    Well said - but dont run it on old mix ! K
  19. Khriss
    Then DONT start it! Empty out the fuel and put fresh mix in ? k

    Probly mostly Tax ? k

    Wet n warm for them i would say, seen a few big ones topped - still ok. Coppices ok too but think only under shade to prevent scorching. Favourite woodland tree of mine along with Larch- good timber. K

    Looks like we are ready for that now ? pity we have to let the yanks use it as we aint got the jets to fill it, probly shouldnt have sold off our entire fleet of Sea Harrier to them so it can sit in a desert, for spare parts....... ? k On board the Royal Navy's new aircraft carrier WWW.BBC.CO.UK For the first time, both British and American jets launch off HMS Queen Elizabeth.

    I have had a few good McCullochs over the years and spares ARE easily available ( much more than before thats t'web ) their worst aspect was they were sold in hundreds at B an Q to hundreds of idiots who couldnt mix fuel and blunted them cutting pallets then said ' wot a shit saw' K

    Guy Watson is a great bloke, very funny, did my Tree Inspectors ticket with him. Buy both as they are clear and easy field guides, that fit in yr rucksack. Claus book is more bedtime reading. But with those yr streets ahead of the game. K

    Its more the science behind tree failure than a guide to decay fungi, the Guy Watson book fr abt a tenner is yr best bet off Arb Association website. Nice field guide to fungi fr arborists. K
