  1. Pot noodle flavours were hot topic. Bombay bad boy for sure.
  2. Aye, many thanks for hosting. Sorry I had to come along. Sorry most people thought I was gonna be about 40.(not sure if I should be offended haha) Me and Sciadopitys (Eddie) had a most enjoyable day out in the far west of yorkshire (bandit country haha) Oh and many thanks for the pot noodles, a most welcome treat.
  3. Customer say's "so what qualifies you to tell me what branches need to come off my tree for its own well being". Your reply can't just be that you are competent to use a chainsaw or climb a tree, or perform aerial rescue, or fell big trees, or dismantle trees in sections and have certificates to prove it. Your reply cant really use experience, "oh, I've done it loads of times". Sometimes, depending on the client you may need formal qualifications to back up your claims of expertise (i.e letters after your name). So what you I refer to my job descripton as, depends heavily on whom I am speaking to. If I were filling a form for doctor or car insurance etc,then I'm an Arborist.(looks posh). In all other cases I am a qualified climber who works on trees.
  4. I have not got a clue what that means?? must be your foreign language hahaha:001_tongue:
  5. I agree to a certain extent. (just hope it wasnt aimed personally). I enjoy arbtalk as a means of discussing my love and passion for all things trees and climbing. But i also see it as if I were down at the pub with some mates, so conversations (threads) do digress, sometimes very quickly. I appreciate that It can sometimes be annoying when you are genuinely interested in certain subject matter, and you have to trawl through 8 pages of babble to find something out. A partial amount on inane chatter you really have to be privvy to at time of publishing to even understand. However, if all banter where removed then Arbtalk would merely be a research/ database of relevant information to our industry, and that would be boring. Would it not?? I for one believe it would turn into something that you would only check if you needed information. Not something you would willingly sign in to, to socialise with other like minded individuals. Feel free to discuss.
  6. I've just looked it up and there aint any mention of Giant Joes on the leagl kill list. So how are we gonna stop this becoming an epidemic???
  7. I bet i,ve seen gorrier scenes on telly tubbies.
  8. looks like a pest to me. I'll have him in my cross-hairs and he will feel all of the .243 if he migrates to any trees near me. Just gotta check if he is on the list as viable live quarry.
  9. dont get eaten by any insects??or sharks??or spiders??
  10. soory guys I dont have any trees in norfolk or suffolk
  11. cant believe you found a young whippersnapper wearing hi-vis in that cavity. How long had he been living in there???
  12. I thought ogres were supposed to be tough, even younger siblings of more ferocious green beasts.
  13. hahaha, I dont know which is funnier, "darning needle" , or the usage of "chortle chortle".
  14. that poor gate that you have destroyed.
  15. Oh my god. I actually own that Sachs Dolmar saw. And it still runs.
  16. I play it really loud as I pull up in peoples drives, cos Its ironic, cos we aint really girls hahaha. Change that avatar.
  17. will I actually need it??? Only I spent my tax money on a new rifle so wasnt gonna road legalise it till next week?? was gonna bomb over in the £50 Nissan almera.
  18. as you sped to the hospital did you have your orange beacon flashing and your radio on full blast playing " HERE comes the girls", by the sugerbabes hahahahahha
  19. Indeed my friend. You speak the truth. I would have told the guy to get of view because I had film cameras on me making a documentary for the BBC
  20. still cant believe the silky managed to get through your marigold gloves haha
