  1. Just curious if anyone can spell out the pros and cons of becoming a limited company. Thanks
  2. Looks good, Ross Enamait has been doing this stuff for years, all the bodyweight exercises are great for functional strength. check out Ross site. http://rosstraining.com/ His blog makes for interesting reading too.
  3. looks great, good work
  4. change is good...
  5. The experience i found with them was they seemed to "drag out" the treatment to another visit, then another to get more money from you ( im not saying they are all like that just the ones i went to) and i never seemed to recover very quick, after doing quite a bit of studying of anatomy, i find now if i get injured i understand what is wrong and can start a recovery program straight away, but in all honesty prevention is better than the cure, i try and keep my body strong,supple and well hydrated and im sure this aids recovery and reduces the injuries i receive, also if i am injured i rest and recover as i would rather be healthy than have money, it amazes me that people struggle on when they know there is a problem the same folk would not dream of driving the pick up with the oil light flashing!!! they would immediately stop, park it up and get it fixed. Your body is the most valuable machine you posses look after it.
  6. Everyone takes different times to heal but try and rest it(even a day), also pack it with ice ( the miracle cure) depends how you handle it but i usually apply the ice for 15 min on and 15 min off not straight on your skin place the ice in a damp cloth, this will take away a lot of the inflammation, once the initial pain goes away start to stretch it, stretch until you hit the pain then ease off try stretch all areas and try to get full range of motion back, this will minimize the scar tissue and reduces the percentage of a recurring problem. ive had hundreds of injuries (combat competition) and always repair them myself, doctors don't care they prescribe you drugs and i dont trust physios. wish you a speedy recovery.
  7. thanks mate.
  8. Anyone got a link to a site or contact details i need some as well? thanks
  9. Not about hidden costs but... Good on you mate,work hard and leave a good job, the difference in ordinary and extraordinary is that tiny little bit extra!! you sound very positive pal, best of luck to you.

    bad news

    Terrible news, condolences to his family and friends. Its so sad when you hear of someone so young who is making a positive contribution to himself and society and they get taken away, when there are some that need to go never even get a cold, life just seems unfair sometimes R.I.P
  14. Anyone used one of these they do a 36cc top handled saw. http://www.sanli.com.au/

    Husky

    i was the same, i thought it was a great saw and in the woods i cut thousands of tons of wood with it , traded it in for a 254 and regretted it i did not like the 254. if any one is selling an old 266 pm the details id be interested.
  16. I would try it and see what happens, a lot of folk seem to be concerned about being perceived as pikeys which is understandable as everyone wants to look as professional as possible, but if i had no work i would have no problem with flyer's, knocking doors,cold calling etc in a pro and polite manner as bills need to be paid and the kids need to be fed. And as for looking like a pikey you will look more like one if you have no income, lose your house and need to stay in a caravan!! read "guerrilla marketing" martyn some interesting statistics and ideas on how to possible attract new clients. hope it works out for you
  17. couple of beech i done yesterday, one was wedged over, the other the canopy dropped as not to damage a mature beech in front of it work done for an estate and they do all the clear up (great), as you can see the reason for felling they are dead!!!,measured them on the ground first one 106 feet the second 85 feet sad to see old mature trees coming to the end, never mind back down to do more today hi ho hi ho its off to work i go....
  18. ill go out on a limb to say i like trees ( that ones not for the comp) i like trees but they pay my mortgage i like trees but my fire says "there hot"
  19. ive got one, i needed it to get an account with the landfill site i use.
  20. what a talent, man i cant cut firewood the same length:001_smile:
  21. every day should be a school day. i was taught how to climb like that years ago using only your rope, even with all our advances there is still occasionally a place for some old school:001_tongue:
  22. fantastic work there, real pieces of art.
  23. the cramps... Bikini girls with machine guns [ame= ] [/ame]
