  5. unfortunatly my guns wernt to hand, and even worse, are regestered:( once the novelty of being followed, and giving them the run around wore of, i was seriously thinking about stopping in the middle of the road, and christening my new mattock multiple times on their van. . . .luckly (for them) it diddnt come to that-it takes alot to get me angry!
  6. look at that truck!!! what a beaut!
  7. i had a samsung D500 as a backup phone which ended up being my day-to-day phone as was supprisingly tough-dropped from 1stfloor window, dunked in a pint, run over by a landy, only stopped using it as screen got so scratched couldnt see it in sunshine! could always try leaving your phone in the cab?? thats what i do now:)
  8. driving back to the yard this arvo, on my own, new chipper behind me, and new ms660 on view, passed some scumbags in their transit, who started to follow me, at a distance, but stil followed me down dead ends, round cul-de-sacs, into carparks, through estates, and to a garage, where i filled up fuel cans, they pulled up, and started asking dumb-as-ducx questions ('wheres umm, err, my mate wants to ask you something. . . do you cut trees ect ect) honestly have never met anyone less intellegent put the lock on the lorrys gates, and the chipper, paid for fuel, started to go back to yard, and there they were following me again. rang the boss up, told him whats what, and went to his-diddnt really want to show them the yard. they still followed me, about 45min now. got onto the A10, a few cars between me and them, saw the traffic lights were green, i stopped, cars started beeping like mad at me, i waited for the lights, and just as they turned red, i floored it-scumbags blocked by cars in front, not wanting to jump the lights. IN YOUR FACE SCUM!!!!!!! if anyone around cambridge wants to know the distintive vehicle, the rouge trader firm they call themselves, and where theyre from (seen the van sussing us out before) pm me (is that ok steve???) haha diddnt mention pikey once . . . bollox
  9. yeah, that was a fantastic tree to play in, diddnt need to, but anchored in to the top just for the hell of it:001_smile: dont get many large cedars round thisway, lovely trees. nice crane work phenom!
  10. diddnt realise you could do such things! uploaded a couple:)
  11. i found that too, so chucked it in the bottem of my kit bag, got a bit lazy on a lime red' the other day, got it out, blew the crap off it, bit of saw oil, and its fine! must have got knocked about a bit:D
  12. would it limit you to the type of brash which would be appropiate? I.E people wouldnt want a bag full of conifer sticks and needles any way of changing the size of the end produce-e.g convert it to standard chip?? very intresting

  17. enter me please! only read the review yesterday!
  18. Dr. watson thinks mr holmes told him the wrong fuel mixture (i know its steam and everything!)
  19. fair play sailor so i shouldnt be thankfull?! the way i look at it is if i were a boss, and i kept buying new kit, and diddnt get a thankyou, id be getting pissed of and think they obviously dont appreciate it, so i wont bother gettin any more! jason, just a little backround to my post, i do agree that you need good kit to do the job, to make their profit but my boss has gone a step further-i was asked what large saw id like, not just given the standard husky theyre used to, i asked to be put through on 7.5tonne, they said yes, even though everyone else can drive 7.5tonners. . .so i diddnt need it, i then asked to be upgraded to the C2 catogry instead, they said no probs im the newest member of the team(well newest lead climber anyhow) and they intrust me with the new chipper, rather than a hand me down everyone deserves a thankyou if theyve done right, no matter what rung of the ladder they are at
  20. do you get out of the wrong side of bed everyday jason?! or do i just not get your sence of humour?! having worked for not so good bosses, its nice to have a decent one. we all like it when they pat us on the back and say well done, so why shouldnt we thank them?
  21. nope! when i signed up i asked about training agreements, she told me theyd like to expect to get their moneys worth, but at the end of the day, if i wasnt happy, they wouldnt want to force me to stay. fair enough really, good job theyre a good company, theyre gonna get their moneys worth!
