  1. I had some more but can't find! Best knot ever!!
  2. Alex, I'm sure you should know this one!!
  3. I had never considered sending it back with received written on! Is that what they expect? Some customers photo copy my invoice and send it back to me, i often wonder why they wasted there time! If I were to re send it back to them then that just more postage, which increases the carbon footprint of the job!!!!!!!
  4. with a similar record time, I believe 13 secs something?
  5. 40ft steve.
  6. Whats to be gained from that? Do they think you'll cut the locks and not replace them for a few days, leavign the place un secure???
  7. Mate, Pal and Dude!! I can't beat that! Well done Karen.
  8. Can you not just remove that part and chuck it?
  9. If your in the uk then Pantin, its sleeker. If your in the US then CMI, its cheaper!
  10. Alternating the legs (under over etc) is the valdotain tresse, whilst having one leg in contact all the way is a valdotain. We use the term VT a lot and it sort of mean either or both. MAybe we should say V or VT or maybe VT (ValdoTain) and VTT (ValdoTain Tresse)
  11. Like when my boss told me it was ok to drive the AG mog on the motorway? Things like that Ed? (I did it anyway of course, carrying a load too!)
  12. Well I tried to change mine to a tipper and the log book just came back again un changed! I'm guessign there are some small hoops to fly through for Andy?
  13. HArd to believe that was new when I was 14!!
  14. Is it really B reg? Thats 1984?
  15. DO you normally have someone workign with you when you do tree work?
  16. Sub contract means you get someoen else (often a tree company) to quote for the work that you have available and then you leave them to do it in there own time and on their insurance. Getting blokes in to help is different. They woudl be self employed but you need to insure them as employees with liabilty insurance. The self employed bit is more of a tax issue, if they are wokign with you then you are the employer and need insurance.
  17. What were you in then, I must have been coming towards you? Got much work on?
  18. Me never upset. We thought it was wrong and the final answer was 8x111/132 = 6.72kg
  19. Do you never have anyone working with you when you do your tree work then?
  20. Oh yeah the LAw bit. Employers liabilty is law I think.
  21. No ones offended I'm sure. Just having a say so. We are right you shouldn't do work with no insurance. You are takign work away from others in the same way your taxi driver was taking money off other drivers, its wrong and theres no way round that.
  22. Cheers. Its not my only vice!!
  23. They would make good tree trucks!! With a mewp attached and keep the windscreen grilles!! Nice strong box in the back for tools, happy days!
  24. This isn't a maths exam. Sorry we didn't show our full working and a proof! Its wrong anyway! (We think)
  25. Ambulances had 4L v8 in them. very popular on the LDV owners forum!!
