  1. I'd like to second an earlier opinion. Thanks for the time served guys and for putting your necks on the chopping block so that I (and many others) get to lead a normal life. Not enough credit goes out to you.
  2. HOLY CRAP doesn't quite do it justice really. Bigger balls than me my friend.
  3. Had a few of those here in NZ except the accents were American and they were trying to get you to pay to remove the virus via credit card. Several got quite aggressive when challenged and then slammed the phone down but they did manage to get some people hook line and sinker.
  4. They call it the retirement city, very laid back and chilled out. There's some excellent museums and Glenelg is choice. There's also Kangaroo Island and I think you can go out shark diving from Adelaide too. I'm sure you'll have a cracking time out there.
  5. Now that's a much more detailed explanation.
  6. Yup. Thought the rain was gonna keep up all day so figured I'd get a couple of hours in until I was soaked but mother nature brought the sun out in the arvo and I had my go go gadget chainsaw arms on so it was all good
  7. Sweet, look forward to it.
  8. So when is this one going to appear on The Discovery Channel?
  9. just a little job for today but seeing as it was persisting with precipitation upon commencement of said job it was nice to only have a bit of climbing and lots of ground work.
  10. Being cheeky here but what mad cap idea are you running with now? More volcanoes?
  11. The wife suffers really badly with them too and the itching drives her nuts. How does the cream work for them?
  12. Make sure they're the big pole gaffs and that you drive them in good and hard!
  13. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWOyfLBYtuU]YouTube - Florence + The Machine - Dog Days Are Over (2010 Version)[/ame]
  14. Looks a nice place. I was thinking the same as bareroots; get them to level off the tree so it doesn't look so lopsided. If you don't like the loook full stop get them to take it out, grind the stump and you can replace it with something more suitable and maybe native to the area?
  15. Good advertising for Henchman don't you think?
  16. So did you get any recommendations regarding the ladders before you bought one? Did you do any research on them to make sure they would suit your needs? Did you ask questions of the staff regarding the product or did you just go ahead and buy one? You still haven't explained WHY they are only good for DIY enthusiasts, why they are no good etc. What was wrong with the customer service? Did you do anything to cause them to be arrogant? Have you discussed the issue with them?
  17. Nice work if you can get it. Hope they pay you well. Mind you, reckon I'd pay them to let me play on the Forth rail bridge on a day like that.
  18. Is that it? You might need a bit more ammo than that to save yourself a ban.
  19. Not too much in the way of stinging nettles in these parts.
  20. Brilliant! Had a smile on his face during pretty much all of it and no fancy trainers either. I spent hours as a kid climbing on roofs of the local schools or in old building sites, cold stores etc without killing myself and had a ball. No more dangerous than crossing the road or walking down the street these days.
  21. Annoying? That's comedy genius.
  22. What a pretty name. Congrats all round.
  23. Treescape have a grinder mounted on a 30 tonne Komatsu. Hell of a thing. Would make short work of that but it's in NZ so not much use to you.
