  1. Going to be doing a decent size job in adle soon which will produce a fair amount of timber if she can collect it's going to be free, chestnut lime cherry and sycamore.
  2. They claimed it has to be individually written for each company specifying how you collect, store and use data. The way he was selling it was scare tactics about the potential fines for not complying
  3. £200 they say it for the legal fees not for them to upload it
  4. Just been informed by my website company that they want still more money to make changes to my site for new data protection laws and this could affect anyone who receives data electronically from customs either through website enquiry or normal emails, this is what I've been sent, anyone got any thoughts on this or is it just a bunch of hot air for them to charge us all money for nowt You have until the 25th of May to become GDPR Compliant. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a new UK regulation aimed at helping to strengthen data protection for citizens and residents both within the UK and the wider world. Essentially it says to businesses and organisations “If you want to offer your services or products to customers who are UK citizens, you better make sure you look after their personal data or else!” Anyone who collects and processes personal data (defined by the GDPR as a Data Controller) will be required to comply with the new regulations. This even includes something as simple as data in your mailbox. It is essential now for all websites who collect data, be it from an enquiry form, lead tracking or even a tracker/analytics requires a privacy policy on their site, outlining… Your name (or business name), location, and contact information What information you’re collecting from them (including names, email addresses, IP addresses, and any other information) How you’re collecting their information, and what you’re going to use it for How you’re keeping their information safe Whether or not it’s optional for them to share that information, how they can opt-out, and the consequences of doing so Any third-party services you’re using to collect, process, or store that information (such as an email newsletter service, or advertising network) This does seem a little “over kill” for those who only are only collecting data at the customers request through their websites but unfortunately, you are still collecting data and still have tocomply with the new regulations. If you do NOT comply then you are leaving yourself open to a fine of up to 4% of your annual turnover. I’m sure you would certainly agree, its better to be safe than sorry!
  5. Nothing at all, nothing gets stuck as its too scared too dare to, now stuff under the bottom roller is another matter I've actually got to kneel down to reach the handle to drop the flap to clean that out, very uncomfortable on cold ground [emoji6]
  6. Had it bad in exactly the same place and ended up undoing the roller pivot bolts and lifting the whole top roller assembly out and getting at it with a sharp chisel, bit of skin loss and much swearing later was all good again, definitely a slight design floor!
  7. You mean you don't just carry a few bags of cold lay tarmac everywhere you go on normal business and have to fill at least 5 potholes each day on your travels like they seem to do round us creating mini speed bumps everywhere.
  8. Looks good with the walking leg on the head, tidy job
  9. Yeh very early, obviously my brain hasn't started functioning again as hadn't ment to post it on this thread
  10. Looks really good Your going to have to stop teasing us with photos and get some real working videos of this kit showing itself off so we can appreciate it fully.
  11. I like the 4 arms rather than two on the nisula and twin rams definitely increase the crushing forse and I like it can be locked with a simple value in vertical or horizontal and like you say the price is quite sensible, could do with a damping link in it as swings about a lot more in vertical than a normal grab.
  12. I see what your saying and yes I agree to part, I can reach up 27ft at full reach and snip a top off and hold it vertical till near the ground then reach up and hold a pole while a chainsaw can step cut the bottom, move away to a safe distance then I can lay the pole down. The knife is easily removed for this and the grab can be locked in vertical or horizontal position for what the task is but then I can easily swap back to the normal grab for loading timber or a 500ltr clamshell for chip and stump grindings.
  13. Waved goodbye to my old botex yesterday but have a new shiny slightly modified toy to be playing with, big thanks to Simon at wilsons for organising it and John there engineer for coming down yesterday and settling it up for me. Sorry not the best photos but was loosing the light by the time I got up to the woods for a quick play.
  14. Open the hood, remove the springs and open the rolers with the lift bar and wedge open with a suitable piece of timber, if you look at the back if the roller frame there is some groves that frequently get filled with crud and stop it closing fully, not always the easiest to clean out but will sort your problems.
  15. B trac the vermeer dealer were ment to be the sherrill UK distributor at one time, not sure if they still are.
  16. Could just be the brash bars need to be lengthened as cabs are all basically the same size on the 8000 range. Really easy to strip the panels of if you fancy changing the colour of it too as that green definitely isn't to everyones taste
  17. And that nice new exhaust cover [emoji16]
  18. I've used the Stine sholder straps on my new tribe harness and they are very comfortable and easy to take on and off depending on the job.
  19. Where is that Khriss, quite unusual, would like to see what it looks like with a years leaf on it.
  20. Amazing woman who should be a inspiration to people who think they are having a hard time when they actually have a fairly easy life and incidentally who our daughter is named after.
  21. Haven't had a useful how too thred like this that I've seen for quite some time, the way we seem to loose saw strops I might be giving this a go but without the ring as we run 540's so have a high clip on the saw itself. Top job, [emoji106]
  22. That's some machine you have, what's the main difference between the two felling heads?look forward to seeing the Liebherr out to work again and I bet you've had no lost time compensation from the insurance company either.
