  1. I never left Dexta!...going back to Bodge's advice about the "no beer diet"...I did get on the wagon today;)
  2. It's working for you Clive?...wow...if you can do it...anyone can:D:beer:
  3. True Mr Egg...but that's an end to it! Let's change the record...this My Thread! I don't do Politics or negative....only POSITIVITY!.......OK...Who else is on a diet? I decided to start when I couldn't close the button on my X-Fit's! but I soon will...I hope:rolleyes:

  5. Has the dust settled?? been keeping myself focused while things at work are going on.... Time to re-group and move on.....end of...nuff said;) am enjoying my second healthy eating week! Love fruit and veg and fish....why did I eat so much crap before? .....p.s I am actually enjoying working in the rain now...it has become the Norm...
  6. If you looked out of one side you saw trees....and the other side....London.
  7. Very good Whitenoise:D no I'm not on Instagram Moose. Found another picture I took of the view of the Thames when I lived on a narrowboat at Kew Bridge.i woke up to this for about 6 months.
  8. Thunderbird 4 is my reccy climb helmet and is a very sentimental part of my PPE:cool:
  9. New Years resolution.....to finally getting my head around Editing stuff from the Go Pro....filmed my journey from Motorway....over the River Tyne....and into Northumbrian Countryside this morning.
  10. Its not for Chris.....its for Mr Gusthart! they have two Oregon wall mounted grinders that look like they are out of the dark ages:D Mr Gusthart was staring longingly at a video showing a modern version...looks amazing
  11. Brought the dog in today...rather interesting in Gustharts to see the auto grinders ar work....found Mr G watching a state of the Art one st work...a snip at £13, 000:cool:
  12. Light helmet plus wooly hat Stephen ....he was cold...and the hat would fit under the helmet.not sure what make it was....climber's own..he's a kayaker in his spare time.
  13. Thanks Orchard...and Mrs Orchard!. Kind Words. Found a rather nice carving by "Bill Pierce" this morning in the grounds of a college near Corbridge. Quality carving and suited it's surroundings... Goodnight Arbtalkland....Roll on the weekend!
  14. Okay....let me put it this way in a Nutshell Rich (and anyone else interested) I am realising my true calling over the last year or so....I love to share my Enthusiam for Trees/Treework and specifically teaching in my own style...no more so than Conner who has responded to this in a way far beyond what I have seen before...for instance his latest reccy climb today.. A thoughtful climb up this large oak and inspired limb walk using the whole length of his rope to the trees extreme furthest point...faultless. this to me is where I get the most satisfaction beyond anything in this Industry...to guide him safely throughout the tree climb and use his own initiative is the pinnacle in job satisfaction! I'm not about making money...never had any.....never will....I just thrive on seeing people succeed...like this young man...buzzing of swinging about like a goid omd Northern tree monkey:cool:
  15. That's a very good deed done:thumbup: a tree that would normally be destined for firewood has been given a second chance! Lots of Karma points for that Stephen:)
  16. Indeed Mr Git:D collected the last if my stuff from the cottage so I have been re-united with "Darkstar" my trusty bicycle and shall spend my weekends cycling! Really feeling great about my health right now and You are what you eat...so that makes me a Fish instead of a Fox:rolleyes:
  17. Yeah Moose and Clive...I am abstaining from all of the good stuff.....in favour of the healthy stuff:rolleyes: Like todays addition to Skinless Chicken thighs....Steamed Spinach!
  18. The old Silky nevet went away! I have always eaten the wrong stuff....but thursday is here and I have eaten nothing all week but steamed or grilled fish...fruit and vegetables! Feel better already! Yesterday I had Pea and asparagus Soup (and of course fish) as a main course (river cobbler)...don't feel bloated....bit livelier this morning.
  19. They are very nice Clive...are they Redwood? They will look great at Kew...please post any pictures of their final resting place:thumbup:
