  11. In the last week or so I,ve travelled from Durham to Huddersfield to Tetbury/Westonbirt to Somerset and then up here to Wigan for the last day on this site(my third campsite of the week) Beautiful weather...Ugly shaped stem but it came down perfectly.Kev turned up with a couple of toys on demo from Orange plant.The stump grinder attachment wasn't, really up to the job but the skid steer with grab was amazing! Had Kentucky Fried chicken for the first time in years.Tasted rather good actually.But I,all stick my healthier diet.Great day working with these lads.....And so to my final destination on this arbventure......And to meet Hodge for the first time after a couple of years.

  17. What you need now Jon is to create one thread where you can post anything you like and just add to it.It allows everyone to share Arbtalk and keeps other threads on track.It,s simple and keeps it personal to you.Ok?
