  1. used to work with 7 quads-all semi-auto hondas, two 450 and 5 green 550s with winches, brilliant machines. all road reg'd and on dual fuel-gave a couple of running problems on a few of the bikes, but nothing major got abused but never broke-riding into dykes was a gegular occourance-winch out, drain air box, drive back to yard, and change milky oil! personally, wouldnt want anything under 450 or over 600
  2. Hop-hornbeam? would imagine so as in same family as hazels, hornbeams and alder. try it and find out!

  4. wow, thats awesome mate, some fantastic looking scenery and trees
  5. still fell into a rotten stump though . . .
  6. i like the principle of whats been done there, especially comparing it to youre other work david-fracture pruning, where youre trying to mimic natures decay to create habitat whilst retaining the tree through reduction, this IS natures decay/demise of a tree, retaining itself, keeping and creating habitat, the trees still doing its thing, abeit a bit more horizontal, which will in time look far more natural than say a coronet cutted tree. it may well look at the moment like a windblown tree that needs clearing up, but in the far future, its going to be a point of intrest and far better than 'eco piles' or logs left as habitat-which in that setting would look like a pile o tat
  7. nice daytona british beef beats jap crap
  8. how much!!!! bloody hell, best have ago at making one or two!
  9. aww, you been down south latley dean?? or just softening up??
  10. look at it the other way- future money to be made! if everyone planted trees in perfect spots, away from power lines/buildings/roads/sky dishes we'd have a helluva lot less work to do!
  11. if you go the dumper route, go for a 5ton 4x4 one-anything less isnt really worth it/up to it-we use a 5tonner quite alot for woodland work
  12. Morus nigra or Morus alba I,ll go with nigra beAR In mind i do see 2-3 pictures of it at the moment!

  17. 1-Pinus sylvestris 2-Fagus sylvatica 3-Fagus grandifolia??
  18. some pointless sounding questions, but with reason. what sides the staples on? is there a footpath running adjacent? (distance between footpath and fence not important)
  19. think it actually looks alright for a tranny, very clean slightly over priced, but then it is from a dealer-if you have a look at simmilar condition transits, theyre going for 5-7k no vat doesnt matter what plate its on-71tho miles in 8 years-hardly a hard life offer way less but if you could get it for 5k no vat, id go for it, times are tight-he might not have had a sale for a week or two just get it sprayed/sign written, hate white transits!
  20. half hour at 10 and 1, or when appropiate Bait, dockie
