Lads....i never said it was breakfast:confused:.... For me, this was mearly a starter:D

Quick fix:p the food aint so wholesome down south as in the sticks...but its fuel in the tank:thumbup:

DAY 2......Now that's what i'm talking about!

The Saga will Contiue....................................................................................

It,s free and it,s local and the Botanist is on the corner for afterwards....Triple whammy:001_smile:

Welcome to Fatherhood Hodge! Having a child is the greatest gift you will ever get..I am waiting for my first Grandchild on or around Friday....it,s an exciting feeling:001_smile:...

A very good day today...My first day with a local tree company only 3.8 cycling miles from my front door:001_smile:..and they only do tree work in the local area(never in London!)...the funny thing is the Boss was away on holiday when i called him moments before i set out on my bike at the beginning of my thread,only returned last weekend and had no knowledge of my previous fortnight,s Adventures:001_rolleyes:...this will be my first regular job since leaving a lot of bad memories behind me....For Good:sneaky2: Everyone in the team climbs and there is a relaxed and jovial atmosphere about the place...the boss brings his dog in the truck everyday...we all chuck sticks for it on our breaks and one of the lads is as nuts about cycling as me and takes logs home with him everyday!...my kinda people:biggrin:...Delaboge call me if i can ever help you as agreed:biggrin:..and Mick and Rich and Bolam..please keep me informed of any events at the "Arborist,s Arms":lol:...And hope to see you in the future Mr Collins:thumbup1:...i couldn,t have made it to where i am now without Their help and the comments on my thread from Arbtalkers :thumbup:...The Fox is now "Financially secure!!"....But will NEVER give up on my DESTINY......KEW GARDENS!!!

I need some new Pfanner safety Shades d,you still stock em?

What about using an Arbortrolley? you could put 500kg,s of egg cups full of cider!

Thanks Tuttle...but i do use Panniers...just cheap ones for London cos it,s such a dirty place and they are just for my boots,chainsaw pants,helmet...however on my back sits either a "Deuter,RACE" Micro pack for when i,m zipping around or my new "Deuter Quantum" Dual Trekking Pack ...65 +10 L I like German Gear!

I called them regarding the job when it was first advertised...it,s too far away from me but sounded really proffessional and friendly...there must be some young budding Arborist or old Pro near Oxford...some great kit to play with...don,t be shy lads! Give it a try at least. it may well be just what you were looking for!:thumbup1:

It does sound like such a great set up:thumbup:....but where is it:confused:

Too late Rob....Somebody already has! :eek::eek::eek:

That,s Brilliant Reg...and it was onwards and upwards from then! :thumbup:

Very true:thumbup1:

ROB!!..Some really scarey looking bloke has just hijacked your Arbtalk account!!

That,s a very cool thought:thumbup1:.. Stephen "Unimog" blair:thumbup:

Good for you lad!

Now they,re firing tree "Arrows" at a car with the harvester! "Top Gear meets the Loggers"

Cheers tom....you climbing much these days? Not still stuck on the ground:thumbdown:...Awsome stumpgrinder on the back of that tractor

And if i sees you i,ll do likewise:thumbup:.....p.s what do you look like?

Maybe you,re not making the offer attractive enough??...Maybe give a few more details:001_rolleyes:..Something like, "Required, Groundsman for a few days work...Position includes 5 star luxury caravan on Private grounds within cycling distance of the world famous Ilkley Moor and Otley,Birthplace of thomas chippendale and over twenty pubs! Best Pork pies in Yorkshire and a stones throw,or rather a boulder roll down the Chevin to Leeds international Airport. Plentiful log supply and BBQ Area and all the Rabbits and squirrels you can eat"... There you go Johny,give it a couple of hours and i reckon your Pm box will be full:biggrin:

Should be at the APF yes Mendip I will say hi felix..yep i,ve done well from this but like i said it,s cos i am a very determined person and love Arboriculture:thumbup:...

What is that in Picture 1 Ed? Looks like a tracked type vehicle...

Maybe another time mate...i,m going to hang around Kew for a couple more years:001_smile:
