Wife texts her handyman husband on a cold winter morning: "WINDOWS FROZEN ~ WON'T OPEN" Husband texts back: "GENTLY POUR SOME LUKEWARM WATER OVER THE EDGES AND THEN TAP EDGES SHARPLY WITH HAMMER" Wife texts back 5 minutes later: "LAPTOP REALLY BUGGERED NOW"

Don't worry Jose, I have a couple you can have for only £100 each, and I can personally deliver them as you're not far from me! 👍😂

Last crane job I did, I gave a helmet with sena comms to the crane driver. So much easier talking to him direct.

Cedar?? As long as it's not moving at the base, just climb it and strip it on the way up, and chog it on the way back down. No space to straight fell?

I wouldn't call Ilminster as being near Weston Super Mare. Must be about 40 miles apart!

Cheers Dean.👍👍 I'll have to see if I can get some Carlos Fandango wheels on my Avant I'll have to watch out for gateways though... 😂😂😂
-
👍👍 What size are they Dean?
-
Like my Avant the problem comes when you start carrying 1 tonne logs on the front. Soon makes ruts in the lawn then!

Is that pro as in professional or pro as in prostitute?

Only advertise on checkatrade now since ditching yellow pages a couple of years ago. Works great for me, regular flow of new calls from customers finding me through it.

A consequence of being overloaded. 5.3t on a 3.5t vehicle. Chassis broke!😱 Not mine I hasten to add!

Targets is a name given to anything that might be damaged if the tree / branch fails completely. Might be garden furniture, fences, sheds, cars, buildings even people if in a public area.

You're welcome! Consider removing the tree as they decay quite quickly, unless there are no targets to worry a about.

Piptoporus betulinus - Birch polypore Indicates internal decay.

Ebay issue - any ideas what to do about this one?
Al Cormack replied to agg221's topic in General chat
Does the signature look anything like your wife's? I had an issue once where some bits were missing. Seller said it had been signed for so not their problem. Talking to my wife about it she said she never signed for it, the delivery driver left it on the door step and drove off. Turns out the driver did the signature but it was nothing like mine, so was able to claim. Get a copy of the signature and go from there. -
Not sure about just ratchet straps though. What's to stop it sliding around on corners or roundabouts?
-
Is it remote controlled, can't see anyone driving it! 😂

This one: Apparently the rear of the bed folds up to make the lorry shorter.

In our area we have Shaun of M&M Transport who has a new flatbed with a 28m reach hiab. Not seen it yet though.

Saw one just like that earlier!😂 Welcome to the 7.5t club. About time you saw the light!

I've been running a 7.5t truck for the last 20 years, and not once been stopped by vosa or anyone else for that matter.

Tree looks like a Damson - wild plum.
