    stitch up springs to mind here, he did enventually fess that he didn't know what sort of tree it was and he did have a collins field guide in the cab of the van which if the truth be known not many people have that kicking around their wagon do they? However the H&S of that mob was disgraceful.

    when i did my hedgelaying course the old boy who was teaching had a horsehide mitt made for him by a saddler. It might be worth having a word with your local saddler to make a mitt up from either horse hide or chromed leather.

    it's either a series 2 or its a 101. quite a fair bit of difference in these beasts. only similarity is they are forward control. unless someones been hybridising it.

    i thought the same about the slash buster when it came to it getting to the other side of the county or whatever it was slow whereas a truck with five or six blokes with chainsaws could have been over and made a reasonable start on the job and like was said in an earlier post, they were just creating access for tracked machine so they could have laid a brashmat in effect. Anybody else spot the slightly stupid thing to do in the slashbuster bit? Those cranes belonging to mammoet were just insane; big meccano set:thumbup:

    speaking as a son who lost his father at a very young age, all i can say is you're both getting the best times of your lives and basically you should just enjoy it. i wanted to do what my dad had done even though i never really knew him but i ended up in an outdoor job (long story) which is apparently what all the men in the family have done over the centuries so i'm happy. sorry if that sounds very disjointed, just not sure how to put it. i think simply put stevie, if xander wants to be a tree surgeon he will if he doesn't he'll let you know and you'll still have the memories. best of both worlds mate:thumbup1:
