  1. that picture has no relevance.
  2. Pete was jealous of the mobile canteen. haha
  3. I beg to differ. I trimmed the top off it. YOU cut it down.
  4. heres some more. pay special attention to the last pic.
  5. Yeah. That could be my only complaint about the iPhone. What do you expect from apple though. They want your 99p for every ringtone you have to buy. Thank god for computer programmers who are willing to show you tricks on Internet.
  6. Can't you find some sort of tray to slide under and when it's full you can tip it into the chip box? Some sort of wide shallow tray like them ones that all the shops sell to store spare clothes under your bed?
  7. I'm gonna set up a new website called ispikeanytree.com. Will you visit? I'm only kidding. I don't even use spikes on dismantles. Unless I really have to. They do my head in.
  8. So is their actually people who climb trees without gaffs? How do you do it?
  9. What? An axe?
  10. Yeah me too. It was FAB.
  11. Awwwwww did I make you just rethink everthing you have been taught?
  12. On another note. Have you ever tried choking a stem with a climbing strop and putting your foot through it? Just thought I'd put that out there.
  13. A very good point and one that I have argued many times. We all know that trees have the ability to "seal" not "heal" wounds. A tree will more than likely never seal a wound larger than 6 inches, yet I am sure we have all at some time removed limbs that are larger than this at the final pruning cut. So why are a few little spike marks gonna do soooooo much damage. Kids engrave their names into trees and years later these marks are still clearly visible, is the tree dead because of it? No if anything surely a spike mark in certain trees may even encourage dormant buds to come to fruition and encourage growth resulting in more foliage. More foliage, happier tree? Conifers seep sap and seal over spike marks before you have even swept up the arisings haha.
  14. Have no idea what price it would be worth? Maybe have it for free but make me something on the lathe as a gift? Dunno. It's worth nowt sat collecting dust.
  15. Yorkshires a big place. Is he gonna cover all four corners?
  16. Do you mean it would have an extendable pipe from the exhaust that you would use as a leaf blower?
  17. Wouldn't want a greenhorn like that on site. Too much to go wrong.
  18. Where are you based?
  19. You know the scene in the film Saw2 when the girl has to jump in the pit full of hyperdermic needles to find a key. It sounded like that. And that was just the ground crew.
  20. Surely the clue was in the word "house".
  21. That tree was taller than the house Ill have you know. Your wheel barrow and bow saw wouldve been no match for it.
  22. Monkey puzzle hurts.
  23. Maybe but your £5 old army goretex doesn't look as smart though does it?
  24. Frank

    18 Stoner.

    It does look a bit that way doesn't it. Can't imagine why?
