Not expecting a great response here after looking through the other posts,but if there's a competent body who can put an eye on my (recently severed) new England tachyon there's money waiting for you. Looks like I'll have to post it down to honey brother's otherwise. I'm based across the water from liverpool on the wirral.

Thanks

Tree cutting budget has been put on hold for the near future.

I know of 3 folks who have been laid off/made redundant already. Many more to follow unfortunately. Myself included potentially.

Worked for a crew called Arbor operations back in 99, was a good firm, made a few dollars too.

Was keen on being a proper arb firm when those were a liitle thin on the ground in Aus.

Sorry folks.

That was the wrong number. (Fat thumbs!)

This one should do the trick.

This is the first test.

No worries buddy.

Good luck

Do you climb mate?

Have put a post up in the employment section for a mate of mine on the Wirral.

Due to me hanging up my harness and moving into the surveying side of the business, one of my regular employers is now a man down.

You'll have to be able to work efficiently and at a reasonable pace, nothing ridiculous, but he hasn't got time to help you improve or learn on the job as it were, so if you aren't happy hanging a 066 off your belt yet, it's probably not for you.

He's a good bloke, have worked with him for years now, based on the Wirral so you'll have to be prepared to travel there.

Be allsorts from conifer bashing one day to rigging down the next.

If you like the Superstition ( One of my favourites) try the Lasanta, always treat myself to bottle when I've had a good week, (or it's reduced)

Got my 40th coming up in March, so will be dropping hints to family about some Special presents they might like to buy me.

Had Gareth in on a site clearance job last week. Well worth having along, Took some of the pressure off me and made my working day a lot easier.

Cheers Gareth, let you know if anything else comes up I can use you for.

Amenity tree care (01829770075) and Treefellers (01829782016) seem to be quite busy mate.

Given me plenty of work over the years, could be worth letting yourself be known to them.

I'm always fond of telling them it has Stihl disease.

Sometimes i even get a knowing "ah" before they head off to tell their friends in the pub later. Bless.

I come with 3 saws, 020T, 026 and a 395XP husqy, big lowering kit, and 20+ years experience.

£120 is a mid range figure to work from, some people pay me more depending on the job, some people pay me less if they guarantee me regular work.

I'd not try to be too greedy to start with, there's lot's and lot's more lads out there who can fill your space in the employers eye's, and unless you're, to coin a phrase, "**** hot" you won't be able to command top dollar unfortunately.

Good luck with it, but competition is only getting stronger mate. Add as many strings to your bow as you can.

Will be attending along with Justin, and Rory.

Great isn't it. The big blokes all papping it, and the ladies and old lass just getting on with it. Bless em

Aye, that's the ones. The very butch named contour avengers.

Costco, £15 for 10 pairs, cant go wrong. Very snug, great to climb in.

Yeah, very sturdy bugger, should be fine to do a little trimming around now.

Ever seen hedge laying done? The trunk is almost severed in the making of the hedgerow, and they stand that well. Just mind your eye's and get some thick gloves/someone else to drag.

Pm'd mate

Just googled it.

The simple explanation is that "colder than a witch's tit" is just a vivid metaphor, like "hotter than the hinges of hell." Since a

witch is in league with Satan, presumably she has no maternal feelings. Thus the medium by which she would suckle a child is,

well, cold as a witch's tit.

But there's some history behind this wisecrack. A witch's tit (or witch's teat, to use the older spelling) supposedly left a marking

that witch hunters and courts would look for on the body of an accused person. Supposedly, witches would suckle their

familiars, and sometimes the Devil himself, from this "unholy" body part. To find these marks, as well as insensitive spots on the

skin called devil's marks--caused by the Devil's claws or teeth--the suspects were stripped, shaven, then closely examined for

any blemishes, moles, or even scars that could be labeled as diabolical. To find marks invisible to the eye, the examiner would

poke the victim inch by inch with a blunt needle (called a bodkin) until they found a spot that didn't feel pain or bled. Discovery

of these marks or spots--one supposes they would be considered cold since they were a sign of communion with the

Devil--would be "proof" of the person's dealings with Scratch, so they would be shown in full court before the execution.

Yes,i have too much tme on my hands today and i really should be doing something more usefull......

Stick the address on mate, work that way a fair bit.

You never know?

Human planet BBC1 Thursday at 8pm.

Aye, keep playing, you might just click with it.

I did'nt like mine at first, but wish i'd found it years ago now. Really helped reduce the strain from weight bearing on just one side as much.
