there's a firm that has platforms on the back of morooka off-road loaders which have very low ground pressure if the right tracks are fitted or use a machine like those that are being used up at spadeadam on the bog restoration project. also you didn't say anything about trees in wetlands john so my answer was pertinent to the facts given. -

there was a video of a tree firm in america who dismantled a tree with rigging from a bucket truck and everything went smoothly, no climbing done whatsoever. -
all the deaths from this, the deceased all had serious underlying health problems, so how can they be certain that it was the swine flu that killed them?

I was reading on the MOD website that the Queen has created a new honour for the families of those who have fallen on active service since 1948 called the Elizabeth Cross; I know that groups of people such as the population of malta can be awarded the George Cross, maybe the town of Wooton Bassett could be awarded the Elizabeth cross for what they have done?

i just have the visors on my helmets and one on a headband with ear defenders for strimming in hot weather. the only solution i can offer is to buy a pair of frames designed for sports and have polycarbonate lenses put in. I wear oakley prescription glasses and sunglasses when i'm working and they have stood up to some hammer. only problem is the price:scared1:
