Who cares? Clear to the boundary line and get paid. I’m not being flippant, but legally educated people argue over stuff like this for months and still don’t really know.

Sorry mate, I looked at the picture before the text and thought Bullman and his freelance climbing buddies wanted to join us! I look like the bloke on the left, by the way.

Racism is definitely a two way street. it’s equally ugly in either direction. Too many people have one-way vision.

I’ll join you Gary. We can go for a pint instead. Who’s in?

And I thought I was taking the piss with my Bitcoin comment!

Don’t forget the VAT. Macca I appreciate that you’re doing great, but getting turnover and wages mixed up is half of what’s wrong with this industry.

Work Saturdays.

Get in! Can’t wait for that video. I’ll get a French chipper and surrender early.

But it's not tracked, so no pretending to be a tank. Where's the fun in that eh? You've changed Josh. You're so bloody sensible these days.

It would be fine with my weight on it. I wouldn't know about you two....

NFU didn't do proper arb insurance, they had a 6m max working height exclusion. Have they changed? That's not good about Arborisk, I'll be looking at that closely at renewal time.

Good luck to HMRC trying to get that back from the whores and dealers.

I’d be happy to pay good money for a sun contractor at the minute as well.

Stihmmad which amino acids do you recommend? I'm on whey protein and creatine in my morning smoothie but think I need a change. I've got a bit of lergy at the minute, but my energy levels generally have been shocking the last few months, although I'm eating reasonably well. I need to shake things up a bit.

For the record mine is from Amazon. Seacosmo IP-68 for iPhone 6.

Just got one of these for my new iphone after I drowned the last one dropping it down the bog. I'd had a Lifeproof cover on it before that, but it just disintegrated. This one seems better designed and was 1/3 of the price, £20. Easy access to ports, better than the Lifeproof. 2 gripes, it does bulk the phone up a bit, and call quality obviously suffers, but it's not a deal breaker.

It would certainly be the best week of mine! Only joking. I’d buy 12 Bitcoins.

Quick update. The property deeds definitely show the ownership boundary ending at the fenceline, so my mate has just thrown this back at Highways and is waiting for their response.

‘Heath’ Robinson! Brilliant!

I’m a big fan of the NHS, without them my wife and kids would have died at birth. Yes there are massive problems. A lot of them are caused by an idiotic public. A&E’s are bursting with ignorant cretins - Little Johnny has a poorly tummy after eating his 4th Big Mac Chantelle has pregnancy fears after taking her 5th load of the week. She never did get any of the blokes names. Ibram has been stabbed again. At least tonight there’s only one of his crew in here, they sent 3 of their rivals here last night, innit? Maureen has been here all day. She only has a bad cold, but thinks a warm waiting room is the ideal place to spread the message. Laverne is here, all 23 stone of her (not including her KFC bucket). She needs to see a ‘fackin doctor but not a darkie’ asap because she thinks she may be anorexic. And so on. People whinge on about MRSA and superbugs but nearly every single one marches straight past the hand wash stations at the entrance without a second glance. Yes, the NHS is in crisis. Blaming it on any single government is wrong. They all have a lot to answer for. Don’t be part of the problem. Work safe. I’m off to A&E, bloke down the pub saw me typing this through my cigar smoke and said I best get my blood pressure checked out. I’m a bit skint after my ninth pint, but don’t worry, I’ve called an ambulance.

Thanks for the input again fellas, it is ongoing and I’ll keep you posted.

They haven’t even got any guns.

I would disagree with that. The LA might like to think they’re the law, when it suits them, but they actually aren’t.

? Back to the tests, how much force is actually exerted? Is it ever enough to further damage an already compromised tree or root system?
