    I'm a massive fan of the NHS. They were on the ball when it mattered when all my daughters were born, and without them all 3 would have died, and almost certainly my wife as well with our first. Scary times, but they can still put an A-team together when it counts. Some of it is awful though, as said the continuity doesn't exist. How can we help? My last time in A&E was truly depressing. Fat little Johnny had been sick because he'd eaten too many McDonalds. 5 year old Chantelle's ear was septic after mummy's cousin pierced it at a party as a treat. Everyone sat there banging on about suing if they get MRSA. How many used the hand wash stations on the way in? That's right, none. My first job as NHS supremo would be to have some dude who looks like Mr. T or The Rock on every hospital door making people clean their hands when they enter. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  15. I am now in a position to offer a bespoke 'boot breaking in' service for anyone wishing to purchase new boots in size 9, Eur 43. You can have them delivered direct to me and I will wear them in for you on a variety of arb/forestry/random tasks for 18 months before returning them. The cost is only £54.99 (per boot, I don't discriminate against one-legged users) + postage back to you. PM me if interested. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  16. If it's who I think it is they are a good dealer, and this whole thread is very surprising. Good luck with it Marc. My TW125 is yours if you need it to plug the gaps (Mondays). Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  17. Conny killing with the Sequoia boys yesterday. 8 tonnes of chip, 3 tonnes of cord, 4 bags of rakings, pub by 4.30. Dan McLennan climbing, Mark Broadley and Von Harrington sweating, me tea drinking/dog/transport supervisor. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  18. From a recent job Simon there are different types. We had a dusk through till dawn survey initially (we weren't there). 2nd survey was me climbing with Batman's endoscope, took about 30 minutes (Thank you SRT!). 3rd survey was taking the tree down in sections. Rich Rule style. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  19. Ian Leach come on down! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  20. You know what people are like scbk. Burning is totally legal, but it can't be 'nuisance causing' and green conny produces a lot of smoke. I'm with Ben, extra bodies and a second truck to keep the flow going. Start at the top and keep the brash drag in the duff so you needn't hammer the lawn further down. 14' is pretty wide, there will be some volume. Add the required bodies to keep the chipper fed and you'll smash it in a day. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  21. That's an 'after' shot. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  22. Anything with cod and chips in it, plenty of salt and vinegar.
  23. I'm the same mate. Had Sika for the first time last weekend, it was served pretty pinky (it was in a posh restaurant) but I really enjoyed it.
  24. That's very kind mate, but I can't afford that much grease.
  25. Dead elm with thick ivy. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
