  1. From memory, not starting saw properly, not remembering legal constraints, incorrect unsafe change of anchor point, cutting above yr head, fast descent, swing more than 2m, leaving fly unzipped....usual stuff you see on every Arb site ? K
  2. Jeremy Barrell, he is fab ( and dear ? ). K
  3. @PeteB did a couple of sites in Essex for Bellways, where that machine would have made all the difference, just on handling timber. Flat sites too. Only concern would be the weight of machine on wet ground. Flail mulcher head on a 360 wasn't a lot of cop. Crashed it down fine but then there is the dealing with the arisings. Depends on wot they want the site to look like, after. K
  4. Sounds like you answered yr own question- the TO sounds a good type, I would err over its actual age but if they confirm it's predating the houses, it's a cracking tree to retain. Possibly flag up its value in yr community / social media group and promote retention. House insurance is there to pay for shortcomings in build and aging, without seeing the soil data and a site visit I couldn't advise on potential heave and it's consequences but the insurers job is to get an expert it to solve the issue with the buildings. K
  5. I would view it as a healthy veteran Oak of substantial value, ecologically and historically ( from report) the structural inadequacy of the properties have an engineering solution ( underpinning, root barrier, pipe sleeving , etc ) confirm TPO and let insurers and utility pay. K
  6. @PeteB a good sized development site job would pay fr it tho' K
  7. I just put ' buzz thru the gates n leave it under the hedge near doorstep' seem to work fr me ? K
  8. You could wee on it, the urea will kill bugs and fungi, and resultant ammonia will clean wound..... Ahhhh, just seen how high it is.... Mr Stubby, would you be so kind ..? ? K
  9. Certainly a good site clearance tool, small enuff to get between standing trees- big enuff to lob them far in one go. K
  10. Don't do yrself down mate, just practise, like scuba diving , I couldn't do it, then I could ? K
  11. Doesnt this bring the nutters out ? mam used to say " empty vessels make most noise" k
  12. Would be funny if guy is only really tiny ? K
  13. @richy_B found them totally inappropriate fr Arb work , yr stopping n starting on most jobs , buggering abt in yard , other people moving yr truck etc . Prefered the card disc . Least you could fill it in with a pen. K
  14. I had a blood test few weeks ago ( negative ) and I must one of the most high risk categories, no symptoms . Think the antibody tails off after a few weeks . but then most antibodies do as cells die . However this C19 is definately different to other viruses, K
  15. Burning at the Stake does actually cure most things , mate K
  16. Hate Tachos, the digital ones are worse ? K
  17. Like that moon landing thing ? airfix models an a polaroid camera. K
  18. Hope you mowed the lawn first ? be a bugger tryin to mow round that K

  22. This could be film , Worker died in 'shake and bake' meth explosion WWW.BBC.CO.UK Demolition worker Daniel Coleman had been living in a block of flats set to be knocked down. Guy Richie or some director . K
  23. Ain't been used much , does it run ?? K
  24. Cheap chain grinder n buy three chains n swap over, yup- have had hard ones off them so they get marked an just ground. K
  25. I think you need to ask the person who manufactured it in that lab mate, i really have not much idea, but many Drs are saying it aint behaving like any other virus they seen, coronaviruses were discovered in the 1960s, this aint a new species, just this is ' different'...... ? K
