  5. My year old st8 has and still is faultless. Sent from my SM-N910F using Arbtalk mobile app
  6. How the hell did you pay over 30k for a tr6? I got quoted 25k for a tr8! Why not just contact forst rather than moan about it on here? Sent from my SM-N910F using Arbtalk mobile app
  7. But if it was unannounced the said firm might be trimming hedges all day so that's no good. Sent from my SM-N910F using Arbtalk mobile app

  10. I'm doing presisly that, I have been set on going AAAC for the last couple of years and pretty much ready to do it but when you see stuff like this you have to ask "does it really mean anything" or is it just another expensive accreditation thar keeps people in jobs!

  11. Lot of money for a 3.5t truck but they are good and it will serve you well, run it ten years and it's cost 3k a year and still be worth something. Sent from my SM-N910F using Arbtalk mobile app
  12. As mark says but I'm pretty sure the minimum amount is 1 million, if you have anyone helping you even cash in hand they are under your command so classed as an employee so you will need EL as well, bear in mind if doing arb work be careful that your covered properly, many firms do PL insurance for landscapers, gardeners etc reasonable cheap but you need to make sure it coveres you for what ever tree work you are doing.

  13. No its not bad at all for that truck, was the arb back extra or did they put it on? Sent from my SM-N910F using Arbtalk mobile app
  14. Heave normally only occurs in heavy clay ground, gig a test pit and see what sort of soil is around them. Sent from my SM-N910F using Arbtalk mobile app
  15. I have run the older version of that Simon for 4 yrs, the nkr77, been superb and still is, there a down plated 5t and do carry weight well, a van is built to 3.5t so not as robust, out Renault master is better on a run but not in the same class work wise, where did you get that from as I'm pretty sure I'm going to sell the van and run another new Isuzu.

  16. The new vermeer 190 seems to be on the other end on the scale to the bandit, bloody hell the anti stress gets a good work out! That machine seems v slow because the stress kicks in at the meat sniff of a match stick.

  22. Lol think he banged his head Rab!
  23. Paul has said it spot on , the isa is great and the ongoing ce points system keeps you learning, it should really be a l3 here as it covered quite a lot many of my l3 collage students never do.
