  1. Then after a good feed we set about some deadwooding from a mewp.....the E-saw is the perfect cutting device from a platform...
  2. Thought you'd like that Johny! Straight out of the oven....
  3. This morning we were working near the wonderful Yorkshire market town of Helmsley and with my visit to London looming i decided to have a break from my usual salad and have some good Northern Grub.So i ate a Black pudding sausage roll and a Game pie!
  4. Another great week with a Suprise ending....more about that in a minute..Dave showed us how pleased he is with his 150T and stripped this tree out with it before bringing out his second weapon of choice...
  5. 😀😀😀😀 very funny!
  6. Woken by beautiful birdsong i could see by the light pouring through the woodpecker hole that there is yet another Stunning sunrise.Looking forward to this weekend.My best friend from School moved to New Zealand a few years ago but has returned for a visit the the U.K and i shall meet him in by the Royal Botanic Gardens,Kew.I was living in Kew Village when i started this thread.I'll also be visiting my friends on the boats by Kew Bridge where i also lived when i worked in London.Then i shall see Derek who was my good friend who i first met up a large Plane Tree but tragically lost his legs who i dedicated my thread to.Bravest man i ever met.So i'm really looking forward to travelling down there.This is my first time returning there for pleasure rather than work.I left there after about five years with a broken heart over Mrs Fox and felt i had lost my identity....Thankfully i found it up North and it is with New Vigour and a Very Happy Heart that i am back there for a few days!
  7. See what you mean about needing patience, cutting and holding over those roofs!
  8. Nice to the Silky saw being used for this procedure.You can concentrate on your balance moving carefully out to the tip and have great control of the cut branch.Sawpod/leg holster certainly makes things so much easier too...Great soundtrack,right up my street.Thanks for sharing!
  9. You've got yourself a BDB James!
  10. Hey Stubby,look.Just been to get Salad and saw this classic.A Maxi...My father's first car was exactly the same.Even the colour.
  11. Certainly am very happy Mr Stubby.Why feel down about life? There is always someone,somewhere always worse off...FACT.
  12. Another feel good morning....and another uplifting sunrise but slightly hazey.
  13. I'm now waking up between 3.30 a.m and 4 a.m! Eating healthier and drinking less certainly does improve things for the body and mind.I also found a stretch of cycle track that runs for miles through countryside.Before got my truck i was cycling all day....everyday.
  14. And todays removals provided some good stuff....full squad out on the one job.
  15. It's been a great month...Kit loler'd....body loler'd (Medicals) and the yard is all nicely squared up.Some nice fells and dismantles are keeping our wood supply well stocked.
  16. Yet another Super sunrise this morning with a mist rising in the distance...
  17. I've met a lot of people who live and breathe this kind of work...
