  4. Can you belive it but no as it was a act of god!!!!!!!!!! - but how about this One large limb that came off fell onto neighbours shed where he had gas bottle's stored which went up, burnt the shed down fence and almost got to the house, one limb hit the neighbours roof as well so was quite an eventful day.

  7. We have CSI and we are not big or do lots of work for builders, to be honest I dont mind it as it is like paying your tax little by little throughtout the year end up with smaller tax bill. Found it an easy thing to have not a lot of extra work, not think they is a wrong or right issue just how you feel about it. Cheers Keven
  8. Hi no access into back garden uness we knocked down a side wall and arbor, looked at a crane but there did not want to go on the drive, and could not set up in the road due to traffic carming in place and other trafic issues. Regards Keven
  9. Trees in the garden are all fall within a conservation area and where to close to fell, which was may first plan, Soina loves he blue cedar and walnut there was a path way to fell in one between the two if we felled her old apple and rodi's first she said no to that. Looked at climbing and at a push think you may have got away with it, but why put yourself or staff at risk if the money is there to do it a safer way. PS mewp did not cost me that much. Glad you like the photos and think machine cost at 500,00 to buy. Regards Keven

    AA

    Dont want to get in to deep know how I feel, but can not use logo even membership on vans, adverts or letterheads unless you are approved and then you can use the approved logo, getting approved is bloody hard work, lots of stress but is rewarding if you pass. More companies are not approved because they are not up to current standards but still bloody good tree surgeons. Do not belive the AA is creap but just lost touch with the contractor and our needs as far as I am concerned. I would think a lot of you guys with with help would pass and become approved but is it worth it, I am in two minds. Cheers Keven
  25. Hi Mick How you doing did you see my post back to you today.
