  5. i'm with peter on his theory of marlow military abseil rope. Experienced it at the get together:scared1: (NB do not use as zip line with lots of equipment on your harness as rotation will occur -Mr Mctree:001_tongue:- or with well maintained pulleys!!)
  6. as long as you do it outside the lez youll be alright!
  7. I'm in. Dean, is it still ok to cadge a lift?
  8. husky do a bluetooth headset. I dont know what is like tho, keep meaning to get hold of one and try it out.
  9. the tracked land rover at killin was a cuthbertson conversion, developed for soft ground, quite a few were used by the raf and army bomb disposal units. I think it is now in america or japan.
  10. the sarnie snaffler is easily thrown off the scent of fresh victims by the simple expediency of offering him one. He does like cheese and tomato:001_tongue:
  11. try buxtons for the whitby range of lock knives
  12. you could try witham specialist vehicles (http://www.withamsv.com) last time i looked they had ex mod buckets on there
  13. Monkeyd can vouch for the accuracy of these as he found out at the northern get together in august:sneaky2:
  14. i had a great experience with NFU. Those who have been on here a while will remember i got done over in march and lost 1200 quids worth of gear, I reported it to nfu and got clearance to buy new gear the next day and the claim was sorted in about three weeks including waiting for the loss adjuster to come out. One thing about their policies is that tools are often covered if left in vehicle or shed as long as it is secured.
  15. dave the dog, is that the one near the auction mart in leyburn?
  16. patrick, do you know any of the lads at ims? An old college mate of mine was working for them but i have lost contact with him. His name is Mick Barker, he's from hexham.
  17. this was meant tongue in cheek btw
  18. you won't be the only one having to play catch up will you dean? Then again we yorkshiremen don't have to prove ourselves do we?
  19. do they have to meet a certain spec, ed as the arbor 16's are class 0 (16m/s) according to the catalogue which has been sat on my desk since the apf; trying to drop subtle hints to the keeper of funds to no avail:thumbdown:
  20. try the bazooka from the firm above it saves a lot of hassle when the wood is quite knotty but otherwise roughneck from the local screwfix or homebase.
  21. how about the husky arbor 16?
  22. bitte sehr herr monkeyd:closedeyes:
  23. pruning roadside trees on the stray in harrogate, all coned off, the climber was just putting in his first cut when an old biddy with a shopping trolley walks up to the gaffer and under the branch:scared1: and proceeds to harangue the boss as to why we were cutting this tree down( the only one to be removed) and where were all the squirrels going to live:confused1: has anybody seen the stray at harrogate loads of trees for the little b******s!!!
