Hello ben yes the same here i have had the loader loler tested. I have got to go on a refresher course for spraying it is the first part the one on all the laws and stuff. I am not planting this year as no money. this is good as i can spend more time in the woods i am working out now where to go as there is so much to choose from all the best david.

Hello Dan how are things not seen you on here much. Hows work? keeping busy? Are you going to any shows or seminars this year? David

Hello ithought i would send you a message as you have not had one yet.how is work going?

Hi ben as you know we have a deer park and i wanted to put in a deer leep but they said no. There used to be one the old keeper remembered it. The thing is the stags outside are in such good condition and large and would bring in new bloodline. I am busy tidying up ready for three big events in the park.

Hi ben everytime i hear from you i think your manager and my land agent must have went to the same school LOL. Been clearing around a pond today and the digger came he dug down about 15 feet to clay he said that pond had not been cleaned in 100 years. The agent would not buy me an alaskan saw mill but my bosses wife bought it for me. Not sure what i am doing next i will have to sit in the office and have a think. Hope you and the wife are well?

Hi ben i got a massey ferguson4225 80 hp with a loaderon it i have just got to get a grab. this is good for me as i have had to hand ball wood into trailors not good. but no crane maybe i will push for it in 2010.

Hi ben the grab is ace i dont know how i worked without one. Having a bad week the rain is messing up the grass cutting and it is the big event this weekend the exits are all mud i think cars will be getting stuck i better wash the tractor tomoz LOL.

Hi nick you have been a bit quiet of late i guess you must be busy. it was really cold today in the wind i was on a shoot, i would rather have been in a wood with a fire.

Hi quickthorn i was wondering are you an estate woodman or forester?
