  1. Mate im not embarassed to say that choked me up, you have more courage than i can imagine, i dont know what i would do if i lost my wife and my kids lost there mum. I wish you nothing but happiness from here on in mate. Massive respect and admiration.
  2. Very true i got a plasma with mine and one of those harness things for the staffie
  3. Whats wrong with you all? nowt wrong with free money
  4. There you go Paul its first outing for about 8 year after getting rebuilt, garden was totally enclosed and they would not let us through the house, so i carried it up and down ladders, it was quite slow but it done the job and made some money. went down about 4 inches then i threw a bag of sharp sand in the hole, jobs a good un.
  5. Its mental they would put you out of business:thumbdown: Would they rather have you on the dole?
  6. "My van is a ford transit tipper with tool box inbetween the bed and cab. Empty weight is 2550kg approx, which leaves me roughly a tonne to play with for green waste (or chip)". The empty weight is that acounting all your tools and you and the groundie in the pick up? If not you better add another 250 kg to the figure giving you a total of 2800kg giving you 700kg for chip etc. to be fair like most you will be overloaded most of the time with chip especially if it rains even with a roof.
  7. Do you have to get the client to sign a docket mick? surely you have the address where the chip comes from as it was the last job, im sure we all do jobs where you only see the client when you price it so they are not there to sign for there waste getting taken away. They have a neck on them even suggesting fineing you when you have jumped through as many hoops as that, there are plenty running about dumping everywhere but they wont stop them. You have your name on the van pay your tax so you are almost classed as an easy target as you WILL pay the fine if they give you one!!!
  8. mmmm i would not be happy if that rabble was waiting as i stepped off the plane, it takes long enough to get through that terminal 5 without a bunch of drama students murdering songs and holding everthing up. Not for me that
  9. Can you not run your existing company from a distance? perhaps using one of your guys as manager, rent your property out then move into rented accommodation, then in your new area start another branch of your own company? Give yourself a year to make it work if it is not going how you thought move back. Good luck with what ever you decide mate. nice website by the way.

  13. nice work as always mate BUT i never sent you all that boat stuff for to be listening to Tom Waits whilst watching your videos!!!!! Get some stubbsy on there freak some folk out
  14. aye.... down your leg, they are designed for a nappy are they not?
  15. That looks cold down your way mate:thumbdown: That lorry is still awesome
  16. a tenner you were robbed :lol:
  17. this was actually a massive stump as the feet you see belong to a giant size 100 boots i think
  18. Have you ever used it? Has anyone you know used it? i always ask myself these questions and if the answer is no then i stay clear, these sites promise you the world but i doubt if they deliver. Its just someone else trying to get your hard earned money for little return.
  19. "will it come down wi a crash or a wallop"
  20. That would be brilliant in the house for dragging the remote over when you cant reach it
  21. My mate stays across from a school and teenagers where drunk and smashing the place up so he phoned the police, "yes we have had another few phonecalls regarding this but no one will leave there name so we cant take action as we think its prank calls" WHAT.... so he gives his name and address then watched two police cars come in and collect said youths, they then proceeded to march them to his house knocked the door and said "is this the ones you seen" idiots or what!!! caught on the hop and wanting to do his bit he says yes, 2 nights later his window smashed and car keyed Phoned the police "have you any idea who done it" LOL he says you showed them where i stayed. "sir unless you seen them there is nothing we can do......" No wonder people turn a blind eye when thats you thanks and backup you get for doing the right thing
  22. So sorry to hear about you loss littletree.
  23. i was under the impression that burning tyres now was a big no no? obviously if no one knows or sees it then fine, a bit like your tv still works without a license
  24. old school was a tyre stuffed with paper and covered in diesel i cant see you getting away with that now though. just lots of diesel then....
  25. I hope its lots of snow like last year, it was lovely looking out the window with the fire blazing all winter:thumbup:
