Whats he's saying is 1.3 mil is bugger all when you start TV adverts etc etc its a fairly small amount in the grand scheme of things.

You are, and to answer your question no they don't, I have never been asked by either domestic or commercial clients to be AAAc! I agree its nice to have an industry body and to be recognised but apart from your 3rd party look over what is the real benefit? I so want there to be one but I just cant find it. The AA sell the scheme to the industry but in reality should be selling it to clients!

How to write content for your tree surgery website
Ian C replied to Steve Bullman's topic in General chat
Some good advice there Steve but there again as you know round me there is one of the shittist sites ever that never get updated but always ranks high in page one ! -
For that money with a trailer as well your going to be lucky to even get an owd knackered machine, simply not worth the hassle as it will need constant attention, put that money down as a good deposit on a newer machine.

Just a shame it wasn't really worth it, my grandad will be spinning in his grave if he could see the shit hole of a country dictated to by errrrrrr the Germans!

One of the problems is that people plant trees like this on boundary’s, you can’t blame the neighbor, to them it may be a pita , people need to plant trees “in” there garden not on a boundary

Isa Certification vs level 4 Arboriculture
Ian C replied to tree man john's topic in Training & education
Thanks, yeah I guess I could do it just not sure I have the time and commitment at my age, also the cost is pretty big! -
I have thought about it but after asking others in the industry, one quite large and well known firm they basically all said the same thing, won’t be renewed as it hasn’t really worked! Where’s the poll ?

Hand grinders are ok, the plastic ones are pony though and don't last long, get a good quality one and it will last and be accurate.

Most modern travellers know the rules, no issue with Showmen or true gypsies at all, what I was getting at was most of the modern travellers know this and use that ruling.

I got pulled by VOSA about 5 years ago near Oldham for an under inflated tyre on a trailer, they went through every thing, axle weights etc etc but couldn't find any thing then came the distance from base, I was just under the 100k rule so no action was taken but I did mention our travelling friends and the answer was if there in the showman's guild (most of the are as they know all the rules) then distance from base isn't applicable along with some other rules we have to stick to!
-
If your in the “ showman’s guild” these rules don’t apply! We know who is a member don’t we!
-
Yeah it’s pretty grim, don’t get me wrong I have had my fair share of suspects but they don’t last long, I can’t do with users of any sort, there a liability I’m not willing to accept .

I gave up firewood last year, there’s simply too many at it doing it as a sideline to make it worthwhile, buy the time I had taken labour, fuel, diesel for the tractor, delivery costs from £85 a bag it wasn’t worth the effort, I now send it for biomass and make far more from chip for v little effort
-
I must be lucky then as out of the 5 of us not one even smokes!
