  1. This figure is provided by Yell themselves. * * It may not be accurate or true
  2. Oh no, imagine having to take a tree down in sections. Nightmare. I think I’ve got the same picture in my head as everyone else of the ‘Tree Surgeon’ passing sections down to his ‘assistants’.
  3. That looks good for slinging a big saw by the handle. I use a large caritool with the gate removed for this, with my Vault on the other side.
  4. How do you do that Will? I haven’t drained my cheapo one in about 20 years!
  5. DMM Vault.
  6. Is Stoke too far mate? Kirklands were great when they built a new back for my Transit.
  7. Your neighbour is being completely unreasonable. Can you get a TPO put on the tree?
  8. Pictures would help enormously, especially side on up the boundary line.
  9. I can’t. I’m bang to rights.
  10. I kind of meant how can you frame a cheque once you’ve paid it in?
  11. Poker chips are a pita, I agree. I mean lumps like half that piece that snapped your loopie.
  12. We hardly ever negative rig. I reckon it’s quicker bombing chunks onto a half filled ton bag.
  13. Nice Alex, but what’s with the ‘Hello Sailor!’ sling?
  14. Yeah, we lock stuff off all the time if we need to. Sounds like there wasn’t much else you could do tbf Joe, as you say must be a CTF thing. Glad you only bust the inside of your pants.
  15. Lovely work. Pretty pointless imo as well as yours, but very tidy. Joe, were you using rings or a block? Did the groundie stop it dead?
  16. Am I missing something obvious here?
  17. Stolen I would imagine.
  18. Doobin has summed it up perfectly. Yell once told me they had had ‘400 enquiries for tree work in Hamstreet in the last week’. That was more than one per house! They are lying scum, avoid.
  19. First stump over about 6” I would think!
  20. Absolutely not! I don’t mind a bit of digging for the amount I do, and this wouldn’t have been much quicker with loading and transport. I would like to do more planting though. A local oik has just started splattering the village FB group with his new 0.8t machine, stating that he is available for ‘tree stump removal’.
  21. That’s much more positive. ’You had a 4.2% pay rise in April because we are such a great company and we value you so much.’
  22. There was a thread on this last year mate. I can’t help further I’m afraid, but good luck! Need more planting, and folks who will do it.
  23. Indeed. Should chip itself!
