  1. Maybe been butchered one time too many. In that location there is only one sensible course of action.
  2. Luckily I don’t really do much work for the ‘12 quotes and cheapest wins’ crowd. 2 man crews out there for £300/day isn’t a dance I’m prepared to join. One of my old customers is delaying pressing the GO button on a £700 ash takedown ‘because things are a bit tight at the moment.’ He has two Ferraris.
  3. Sort of, but you still end up with as much money.
  4. I think reducing rates is a very bad idea. Just be prepared to work harder for them.
  5. That’s how I took it as well Andy.

    WTF

    Don’t be bitter Mick. What are you doing with the hedge? Taking it down to Bristol to get chipped? It will only cost £100 apparently, then you can sell the chip for biomass and retire.

    WTF

    I’ve just seen @Mick Dempsey rolling off a ferry at Dover towing a mini digger. Everyone loves a bargain.
  8. Cracking day for it mate. How much was that lump?
  9. No. They don’t operate like that.
  10. It will be like Game of Thrones. Fantastically entertaining to begin with, the plot develops, but the ending is unsatisfying and vaguely inconclusive.
  11. This is a picture taken in the cab.
  12. Very odd. I bet the OP is never heard from again.
  13. Yes. New gravity technology. It’s a shame they don’t have zip-off legs for those really warm days.
  14. Why? None of them really work anyway. If you bang a 60cc saw at full chat across your instep you will sever your foot. You need to learn not to do that.
  15. He’s been asked. The silence is deafening. He’s a thieving pikey cunt Mick. The show was rife with them, as was the APF. The shows used to be all about the trade stalls, there’s less and less who think it’s worth doing because of the thieving and extra security ag. Where does that leave the shows? It’s about time people started telling it how it is.
  16. Because I wasn’t born yesterday Mick.
  17. This lad seems to have changed his mind about his purchases without even trying them. From Treebay on FB.
  18. That spanner pocket is where I keep my dog shit bags. I take 2 labs to work with me, you need to be prepared.
  19. They don’t really. I normally empty my pockets if I’m working, certainly climbing.
  20. Phone, vape, keys, wallet, condoms.
  21. 😂 Wearing mine today!
  22. I think they will be very cool though, they are lighter than the Cloggers. They’d be better off just importing the Cloggers though, it’s about time someone did.
  23. For the second day running, Admin informed about bulling.
