  1. I just bought a LR Disco from a guy off my mate who is a farmer for £200 haha, just to see if I like them. Gonna blast into a field and see what happens
  2. Ive just bought a Land Rover Discovery for sh**s and giggles. Should have it "on road" next week.
  3. In the uk, the police are more likely to carry a camcorder than a shotgun.
  4. haha, i cant sing or play any instruments anyways.
  5. Firstly congrats on the forthcoming marriage mate, and good luck for the future. We did our speeches first and it worked really well. I worked myself up about it and afterwards wondered what I was worried about. Short and sweet. Leave the big job for the best man. Just thank the right people.
  6. I loved how quick the guy hopped on the back and slid through the rear window. Wonder if they had a six week training course for that manouvere haha
  7. Not just that, there is a fair amount of ironing piling up and cos shes pregnant, apparently its now my job. I'll tell her that I,ve got a big job on hahaha
  8. Truck weighed empty, with climbing/rigging gear and 4 saws, came out at an impressive 2520kg, add to that slim and trim me, makes little difference. Add to that my pregnant wife and we are well over hahahaha:001_tongue: So legally I should get nearly a tonne.??
  9. Did I see that truck for sale on ebay a while back????
  10. That is it, I'm going for my firearms cert and off to buy a .22 air rifle tomorrow, along with some real tree camo. Being a rock star didnt work out so I'm gonna be a hunter instead. Oh and thats a posh looking 4x4 you have got yourself there Dean.
  11. Oh my god. I thought my job was good. Where do we sign up. It's like everything you see in a film and think doesnt actually happen in real life. REAL MEN. haha
  12. I think I may come and tag along. What sort of trees are around??? and how do i get there??? I'll be west bound on M62 from Hull??
  13. I much prefer the terms : Lumber jack, or Log jockey.
  14. Keep that attitude mate. Dont ever get a credit card or bank loan and you will prosper. One day someone will be writing / saying how "sound" YOU are to work for. I wish I could find someone round here like you.
  15. can you just take another 18 inches off them.
  16. Lets go to Deans gaff in brighouse, I know where that is.
  17. So if you have a ticket certifying you to use a saw in a tree, what exactly are you going to do with the saw except prune or dismantle?????????
  18. Balance is key. Practice on a branch that is laid on the floor. If you can dance round on one foot hopping and running up and down without putting your feet on the deck, then your balance is improving.

    mulch

    £80. Per load. Do you want some????

    throwlines

    I find you need to be as far away from the trunk as possible, so a bit of branch walking to get a better angle for throwing. Not always possible though (pines etc)
  21. nevermind the size of the Larch, look at the size of that padded lumberjack shirt your wearing hahaha:001_tongue:
  22. This is Spike. He will try and eat you.
  23. woah, what the hell is that?? is it real???
