  1. .:congrats: There,s plenty of those kind of subbies in Essex.
  2. I dont know about that, at one point Steve got a knife out..............it was one of the prizes. Congrats to all the winners and Steve of course.
  3. Nice job Rich,good to know I,ve got a decent climber for Tuesday. I,m looking forward to it.
  4. Hello Ron, fair bit of graft there.Posted youre jacket today first class and got the boots.They fit a treat, well pleased.
  5. I bet that was hard to learn.
  6. I had my house broke into about 20 years ago and found out who did it. Every time I see him I do something whether it be a slap,take his car keys or whatever comes into my head at the time. Call me a criminal if you like I could,nt careless, you could even call me barbaric. Personally I call it human nature.
  7. I agree with Ed, I,m pretty sure you would get away with twatting these divs. If it was me I would keep a 12bore out of the cabinet ready to use. Then if it happens again blow their fecking heads off. So long as you confront them at the front door so you can say you feared for you,re life. And the reason the gun was out is because you were cleaning it after a lamping session. I,m reasonably sure you would be ok, if not then what the feck just do the bird.
  8. Ah yes youre right,I,d have a go on it for a couple of hours.12" is alot I,d have to use my 11.5".
  9. I keep looking at youre avatar and looking and looking and looking and looking and looking and looking and looking and looking and looking and looking...........And for the life of me I still cant work out what make of saw that is.
  10. With all due respect,I,d keep quiet and get on with it or go it on youre own.
  11. Got a call from the NFU a few hours ago and because I insure my truck and chipper with them they will give me an extra discount of £50..........Sounds to me like these people are clutching at straws,however I,m running out of time because one way or another I have to renew soon.If youre looking to renew soon have a haggle, after all it wont cost you nothing and could save you a few squid.
  12. Youve already had a go then.
  13. Wednesday 8.30pm I,m getting all excited,now I know why my mum plays bingo.......eyes down,look in......I wonder who,s got two fat ladies.
  14. Like ya style.I bet you earned youre wonga today.
  15. Snow here aswell.One cherry and one acacia to take down,sod it bang goes my plan to climb alternate days. Got stuck into my books instead so I meet the Jan deadline.Got as far as April 07 and could,nt find anymore receipts.I,ve only just found them after pulling the house apart,phew! panick over found them all in order month by month sorted last year and tucked away for safe keeping.Now its time for some serious tea drinking.
  16. Cor!Arbopussy sounds great. But I think some boring git has already done arbocat or something like that. Feel free to start a new thread,it will have my blessing.
  17. Its serious stuff this hunter/gatherer thing. You know what blokes are like.Haha, big kids really.
  18. Checkout Arbsquids...seriously.
  19. Dogged, its already been advertised on here as a scrapper with a f..... chassis.
  20. Sod him, I,ve suddenly developed a hankering for landys:001_tt1:£850,whats the chassis like.
  21. I have 5 grands worth of chipper insured as a trailer with the Kent branch for £88 a year....You were right to tell them you need employees insurance,Ive got away without it for years. If subbies are working for you they are under youre insurance. Knocking off £400 is a joke.They sound like traders from hell, imagine if we did that,we would end up on one of those programmes.Yes its great to see those parasites squirm,they remind me of TICKS on a dogs back,sucking a living off our backs.
  22. Ok ok, youve rumbled me I,m a closet landy freak.Now I,ve said it I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders. No more hiding LRM from the wife cos I,m ashamed.......I,d better get rid of those issues with the pages stuck together....
  23. I wish it were nearer,I,d love to see some new techniques from you younger blokes. I,m so old hat with my 2 ends,2 prussiks and bowlines.
  24. Hard to say,I,ve only had my two jills Jalalabad and Taliban. A knowledgeable friend took me to a good breeder. If you do get some build a nice hutch and run in the shade as they overheat in the summer.We have two big hutchs and a large wired in area all connected with pipes. Most importantly handle them every day when they are young. My two will eat from the same bowl as my Jack Russell,they are that tame.
