  1. Strange things bees, spotted this swarm on a wall over weekend. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  2. Ooo, yeh that is worse! http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  3. Sacking offence! Got worse, How so? http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  4. Done deal, I'll sit in your house putting my feet up eating your biscuits with a big stack of cartoons to entertain myself which the kids can watch as well [emoji6] We have it a little easier in some ways as I employ my wife so allow her time off in summer to look after the kids and being a good employer she'll even get paid. Sorry forgot to retune every channel to classical this time 😜 http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  5. Subbie who's chipper it was as well, ow well job got finished a day early so in 1 hand out the other. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  6. Don't think this will buff out. 560xp verses tracked chipper on hardcore drive. Typically just put a new chain on thismorning. Still starts amazingly..... http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  7. It's when the pressure in the grab drops a little that things slip, just looked at my post and don't know why I said holding students ment sections. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  8. Always worries me holding students like that in the grab after I've had some have slipped and dropped but not from that sort of hight, welded a big hook on the side of a grab before that made clippings chains or slings on easy for the climber and quick to undo once on ground to pick up again in the grab properly. Looks a very handy rig and really fancy running something like that sometime soon Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/232020364526 Possibly more like this as 4x4 is almost essential for most of our larger clients. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  9. http://dixon-bate.co.uk/shop/gb/shocklink/26-dixon-bate-35t-universal-coup-.html Here you go. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  10. Dixon bate do a version which has a form of shock absorber in the drop plate which was marketed as good for towing horse boxes as gave a smoother ride, might be worth looking at a bit more. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  11. Just went and looked at a very similar machine last week to bring in to shift some monster oak windblow where a big forwarder can't get to. Built like a tank! http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  12. That what botex's are for, proper loades. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  13. Most of the time I'm fairly good at talking them out of such things as what was dome to the hedge was the original request for the sycamore but left that quite decent. Hedge was the kind of bloke who would get someone else if I didn't do it. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  14. Nice, what's the payload? http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  15. Started the day butchering a beech hedge, client was insistent it's what he wanted diapite warnings it's got a 50/50 chance of snuffing it. Made better by a sympathetic sycamore reduction over a caravan thisafternoon. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  16. Just been totally soaked topping a beech hedge, went from sweat to wet in seconds! Now scorching again and almost working in a steam cloud off my shirt. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  17. Cheers, over filled it nd dressed it back like a old boy taught me drill the holes to arrest the crack nd fill from bottom up then spread the puddle into channel, definitely getting better at it but still got a lot to learn before I'm even half as good as a few lads I know. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  18. Birch bark is nice, like it. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  19. Got warrior on both my landys and have been good winches but the standard battery leads are cack and worth changing when fitting for the thickest you can get. Remote control as standard is very handy as well. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  20. Did that Monday Mick, checked all water levels on all vehicles as well, even in this heat and without the fan on I can't get the landy to run hot with its new Super shiny new radiator, should have changed it ages ago but will probably regret it come winter when the heater is even more pathetic. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  21. Pruning and faffing on at a caravan park today luckily up the dales and high up so a breeze all day but talk about hot when I got back to yard and had to put a load of logs into trailer ready for tomorrow, home and shower turned to full cold for 10min. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  22. Cheers mull, I'd forgotten I liked the tunes from the water boys. Quite into this blokes album at moment https://youtu.be/5vJmoqbAjyI http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  23. Ok, worked through the settings and got it not so bad now, few days nd I'll have forgotten what the old 1 was like nd I'll all be good again http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  24. Quite a lot. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
  25. Hmm not sure about these changes Steve, just a random picture showing in the thred list nd not always the last 1 posted. http://www.dryadarb.co.uk
