  10. NFU were £600 more just for my unimog, the combined insurance off them was a lot more expensive than separately. It's only a mornings work to sort it out so not that much of a headache, plus it saves me plenty so it's a no brainier really.
  11. I have 5 vehicles and got quotes for fleet insurance off 5 different companies as 3 were due for renewal I then went to the companies I was with and tried to get multiple insurance, every one ended up being more ( in one case £1000 more) to insure the lot than to do them individually. Keep us posted if you get a good deal as the other two are due renewal in a couple of month.
  12. Cracking pictures John, big tree
  13. Good luck to them. The kind of customer that want there trees cut for free is not the kind of customer you want anyway, if these guys take these customers out of the equation then the less timewasters you will meet whilst quoting.
  14. i think we have all felt the devastation that cancer can bring at some point, good on you jennie for making a difference.
  15. Done. All the best Jennie
  16. Your hen pecked mate I would watch that it's a slippery slope, I was only joking about the tumble drier
  17. I've never used pegs the wife does all the clothes washing and hanging it out although I have used the tumble drier. Does that count ?
  18. Looking good rich:thumbup1: The obligatory tape on the broken and damaged toes, used rolls of that over the years
  19. Cheers rich Great technique of catching the kick then kneeing the caught leg, the thing that makes me laugh is unless you have done some Thai you have no idea how hard these boys are!! taking the kicks full power and checking some of them is unbelievable conditioning. It's a thing of beauty
  20. Clean fish, was it liced? Fished the Tay for years on the scone palace and muir ton beats. Had some great days but the runs faded after the 98 storm and changed all the lies, work then got in the way I need to get back into it. Funnily enough I was looking into an Alaskan trip recently. Well done mate its a great feeling
  21. its all relative, its not as good as a tirfor thats right but a tirfor is not as good as a 10 ton double drum igland and on and on...... its fine if you use it within its capabilities and they are about £20, get one an keep it in the van with a couple of slings and a length of old rope
  22. you have funny names now, When i was growing up Whisky was always called liquid violence
  23. youngest of 4 with 3 kids.
  24. i got a demo of the GTM unit and it was good and they were offering a really good price on a demo, the thing that put me off was the mitsubishi engine i had never used one so i had no idea what they were like, i ended up getting a CS100 and paying the extra but it has never missed a beat and being a kohler engine i knew what i was getting.see if you can get a demo of the titan unit and put it through its paces. good luck with your search the cs100 do come up second hand keep your eyes open.
