  1. Thanks for the replies, I was clearly mistaken. However i find it interesting that any deadwood can be removed from trees protect by TPOs as their main purpose is to preserve amenity for the public.
  2. An interesting isuse came up the other day at the company I sub-contract for. They where under the inpression that deadwood can be removed from a tree covered by a TPO with out consent, under the Dead, Dieing and Dangerous clause. I to used to beleive this, however having discussed this at collage I now know this must be incorect. The example I was given was that a major part of a veteran tree is it's deadwood habitat and the removal of the deadwood would involve heavy pruning therefore seriously affecting the nature of the tree. If the DDD clause can be used in such a manor surley this reduces the strengh of the Tree Prevervation Order significantly. The point I'm trying to make (all be it long winded) is that if, as I belive, pemission must be granted to remove deadwood from a tree subject to a TPO. How many companies out there are inadvertantly giving poor advise to customers and breaking the law. Any thoughts please.
  3. A friend of mine has the "Samsung solid" similar to the old rubber nokias but with more modern features. Tested on the gadget show and was considerably better than the JCB phone designed for builders. Not to expensive either about £70. http://www.phonesreview.co.uk/2007/10/29/samsung-solid-the-all-new-rugged-phone-on-orange-in-december-for-70-pounds/
  4. About time just about every one I know who has bought them recently has had the zip fail. After the zip went on my first pair, after only 5 days, I decided to put some additional stitching, around the bottom of the zip, on the second pair. Don’t get me wrong though their great trousers nice feel and much tougher fabric than the Stihl. The replacement pair are still going strong with no rips after a good 6 months.
  5. Count me in please. More gear for a Gear Junkie is always good.
