Can you have truck and car insurance on one policy??
Alinicoll replied to Mozza's topic in General chat
I have 3.5 tipper and a car insured by NFU. The no claims was certainly taken into account on both. -
Some kind of vascular wilt? eg Dutch Elm. Don`t know if you get it out there:confused1:
-
Looks good. Well done.

Where are you based?

Laurel – Love the smell, but is it really bad for you?
Alinicoll replied to John Hancock's topic in General chat
I once trimmed a long laurel hedge, reaching the tops from the back of the truck, standing on piles of Laurel. By the end of the day i was felling sick with a banging headache. It disappeared in the evening but first thing in the morning after getting back into the back of the truck it came straight back. Not recommended. -
I don`t have a 7.5 tonner but i am insured with NFU at Cirencester for PL, truck and tools. I think it depends which office you speak to as to what deal you get.

I don`t know the saws you have mentioned but its always worth paying a bit to get a good saw imo.
-
Yeah, thats the one. i didn`t manage it but i used to help. Small world! Its Steve West who manages it. I know it as Foxcombe but its owned by the Pilkington trust. Thats where i learnt to use a chainsaw and climbed my first tree (with a harness). I feel all nostalgic now.
-
That does sound pretty over the top. I mean its fair enough to know how to treat a cut but listing CE numbers is a bit ott imo
-
If its the place i think it is i made them some mushrooms a few years ago. I recognise the garden. Its near Foxcombe woods i think which is where i got my first arb related job.
-
Is that on Boars Hill?
-
Thats like Mr potato head for trees:lol:
-
I just never answer a withheld number or one with an area code i don`t know. they give up in the end.
-
It`s still doing it.
-
The next level of difficulty would be the Technician certificate.
-
I don`t think you can really go wrong with either saw.
-
Anything will be considered at the moment. Cheers Theocus:thumbup1:

If its an 020 then its probably quite old. 200t`s have been out for a while now.

Arb-Mycota what do you want from books?
Alinicoll replied to Tony Croft aka hamadryad's topic in Training & education
I agree a field guide would be useful with a list of common decay, saprophyte and mycorrhizal fungi. A good ident flow chart and some way to find likely host to tree. Also the possible implications of particular decay and species. That would be handy.
