  1. If you think that what your paying is acceptable, leave it at that!!! If it was me, I think I wouldn't open up this particular can of worms!!! Just my humble opinion!!!
  2. We were felling some large dead oak trees in a small wood with a foot path through the middle. 2 day job so on the first night we made everthing safe and cleared the paths in case anyone wanted through. Left all the stumps about 3 foot high so noone tripped over. Came back to site in the morning and found a perfectly formed brown admiral that someone had laid ON TOP of one of the stumps. Cue a Resovoir Dogs Mexican Stand Off as 3 Tree Surgeons argue about who is gonna move the tud.

  4. Ha ha!! Never heard anything like that before!!! I guess it takes all sorts!!!
  5. Who's going to be brave and admit having a plastic one?
  6. Nah mate!! Technician Instructor. Working with your friend Mr Large!!
  7. Shuttleworth College mate. Where abouts are you Chris?
  8. Love film is fantastic!! Big Lebowski was my choice of film at college!! It why our Student Bar started stocking Kaluha!! Too many drunkards asking for White Russian!!! Brilliant film!!!
  9. I don't 100% agree with this. The only way you'll get kicked out of college is doing something seriously dangerous (as you mentioned) or not doing the work. Simply having no common sense is NOT a reason to kick someone out of college, and you'd never be able to uphold it.
  10. Got mine this morning, Cheers Justin.:001_cool:
  11. With the Primus, Can you change the length of the rope easily? I'd have thought you can just use a normal Split tail then change when needed? Or does it need to have a larger spliced eye?
  12. I tried that and it had a load of pictures of the gay cowboy!!!!!
  13. I think that we all need to ask MB very nicely if he'll find out for us!!!:bowdown:
  14. I'm intrigued!! I've been looking all morning and can't find anything!!!

    heinz 57?

    [ame]http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=8aA2HliA1KE[/ame] Only joking!! Nice looking little dag!!!
  16. For the purely evil or those that don't want to have any proper friends. Get monumentally drunk and fill up a wheely bin with water. You can move it with ease and position it up against an inward opening door by leaning it on the non wheel edge. Then ring door bell and wait..... Another much more simple one, wait untill the guy up the tree isn't looking and crawl under the nearest large branch and lie very still. Had this done to me and very nearly sh@t myself..
  17. What a shierker!! He could easily have carried 10 in his arms!!!
  18. Just let it all go!! I doubt it'd show through two pairs of trousers and at least you'll be warm for a little bit....
  19. I'd say that of the two, the first one wins it!! Are there going to be t-shirts to buy Steve?
  20. Ha ha!! I bet he'll thank you for that!! And you're right, that knots a cracker!! You could pull a house over with it!!!
  21. Ha ha! Probably safer and definatley cheaper that way!!
