  1. NEDL/YEDL electricity contract has gone to enterprise and fountains i think.
  2. apparently there are 29 air ambulances grounded- all ec135's. I think there are only a handful of air ambulances that operate other makes including Yorkshire. The armed forces and the coastguard have stepped into the breach in those areas affected.

    which l200

    got a 54 l200 double cab, had it for two years now and it has only had a new steering hose, clutch which was the original and also had to replace the rear axle because the rear diff was dying and it worked out cheaper to do it that way but the engine pulls like a train. Just drove to horsham last weekend and it was all motorway and did 70 most of the way there and back and did about 680 miles on tank and a half.
  7. it used to be that to get on an academic course you had to have so many hours relevant industry experience. why not bring that back?
  8. thats what i was trying to say peter but couldn't quite remember which bit went where.
  9. might be up for that mate.
  10. Askham Bryan have just taken over the fe side of newton rigg and are pumping about a million pounds into getting it back on its feet. My woodland management lecturer is a graduate of newton rigg and has worked in forestry since leaving there and has brought that experience to askham bryan.
  11. at the moment you are liable for any debts the company incurrs but the meaning of being a limited is that you have a limited liability in that you are only responsible for the amount you put into the company. Or thats what i understand from my management lectures this year at uni.
  12. those are the protector extreme and are the only ones with the forest grip system on the sole of the boot. Sorry to burst bubble mate.

  15. I'm just looking for a bit of part-time work at the moment whilst i finish my degree and to get my hand back in. I'm looking mainly for groundie work as i am no climber and i can provide my own kit such as saws and lowering kit.
  16. samsung have brought out an extreme version of the galaxy; best of both worlds.
  17. signed and shared TCD. My housemaster at school was from rhodesia and had to leave.
  18. is your phone on contract or payg. If you're on payg have a look on mobilefun at the samsung galaxy extreme- all the features of the galaxy but with the toughness of the samsung b2710.
  19. I have epilepsy which is regarded as a disability but imo a disability is only that if it stops you carrying out a 'normal' life. My epilepsy does not stop me doing things as such, i just have to watch that i don't get too dehydrated or not have enough sleep.
  20. Andy, just spoken to mum about this and she has suggested speaking to the stoma nurse about diet and regulating "functions" to somewhere approaching "normal". Get well soon mate. Mum says there is a plus side to it all in that you don't have to worry about bothering the customer to use their loo.
  21. great for spiking connys in summer
  22. Sorry to hear this pete. Thoughts are with you at this sad time.
  23. depends on the college; they haven't set their fees for next year yet. I think the fees at the moment are around £356 per module
  24. Swinny, i'm on my final year of the foundation degree at askham bryan. The part time lads pay per module and it doesn't add up to 14k at all.
  25. Try steve smith at complete tree surgery in keighley.
