  1. Big tree, tidy hinge. good use of cord mat, nice work.
  2. Very true Rich. Don't get me started on them phone-sex lasses....
  3. Good man. Get some pics up, so we can all say - 'I would have done that live you big ponce.'
  4. Silky cuts do leave a better finish than an O2O. Did he have very long arms?
  5. Moving again after a very poor winter. Uptake of quotes isn't great, though. '£400? - I thought it would be about £50?' 'Nice to have met you, you have a lovely house, garden and Range Rover. Goodbye.'
  6. Oh dear. It was all going so well till you knocked that other tree over. Looks like nice weather mind.
  7. I loved it - I got loads done today and even sorted a couple of planning apps without getting sidetracked! Except by porn, obviously.
  8. I think if it was no good for firewood, a lot of log suppliers in Kent would starve.
  9. There are two issues here mate. a) Your safety and b) the risk of damaging the wire or connectors. If you get a) wrong you die. If you get b) wrong you will get financially raped without lubrication by whichever power co. own the kit, and your insurance may not pay out due to lack of UA tickets, working in proximity zones etc. Get some pics up, and make the right call! Stay safe mate.
  10. How can the customer shut the line off? Does he think that if he turns the big switch on his fusebox to OFF it means there is no juice in the line?
  11. Sorry, couldn't resist it. Can you let us know if the ground anchor is any good? (and which type). I am interested in getting one myself.
  12. Congratulations. I think.
  13. Had a monster Stihl vs. Husky debate with myself one night.....
  14. Surprising that they refused to sell him a new saw. You don't need 30/31 to buy, or use, a saw.
  15. That was something, wasn't it? Have you got a headcam yet?
  16. Really, really good film. When the credits came on at the end, everyone started clapping! Firth and Rush are awesome. Good shout John. My lass was 'dragging' me to see it until I read your post!
  17. Nice shots Frank. Did you climb the Sequoia, or were you just perving?
  18. I meant Chinese food! That is worrying though.
