  1. Too true about old friends, i had forgotten how relevant it is.
  2. If it is black and hairy, and flying slowly at this time of years, it will be a St Marks fly (Bilbo marci), larvae live in soil and rotting vegetation
  3. Nice to see some good honest rigging, none of this namby pamby large lumps removed with a crane nonsence. Good work fella, i felt cold and miserable just watching
  4. Not that i am bias towards Nuffields, but they is LUSH.
  5. Nice, is it used in anger, or just for show ?
  6. Doesn't Reg do small trees !
  7. How is the V.T. going to get back to the climber ?
  8. 9210, level 7.2. This game is more p.c than last nights
  9. Cheers for that. But if the genes are signficantly different, surely that makes them a different species ?
  10. Can i have a halfwit version please ?
  11. The Wych elm in these here parts does not seem to be succoming to D.E.D.
  12. Tried this today, work a treat, and i did not need to buy any extra equipment. It made returning on a long limb walk a joy.
  13. At least it is keeping you busy.
  14. P.M. jon aka mendip logs, he is always after logs, unless he has been on the cider :lol:
  15. I am suprised that it has not already gone to mush, as beech normally does not last more than a year outside. This year i am selling at £70 per cube regardless of species.
  16. Thats freeky, and i am scared.
  17. Its got Ganoderma, it is going to die. So you might a well remove all the branches, and leave some stanging dead wood.
  18. That there be one beautiful tree.
  19. Bugger i am almost in the last catagory, o well, you are only as old as you feel.

    Your covering letter should contain the points that the employer is wanting in their job discription, and how your previous experience will achieve these points. Don't actuatly lie, but there is no harm in streeching it. Good luck
  21. If anybody wants a few of the tiny rivets to join broken tape, the nice man a Gadd sent me hundreds, and i will never use them all, just let me know. P.S. they test the patients of a saint to fit, but given the cost of tape refills it is worth the effort.
  22. I would not worry about terminology too much, everybody uses different terms for the same things. Asking for 6' logs would be a good start, and you will get about 20 m3 on a lorry, which will translate to somewhere between 12-18 tonnes depending on moisture content, and species. When you are buying i would stick to volume as this is a constant and does not change. To work out volume use: Pie* D2/40000*L D2= diameter squared L= Length At some point you will get taken for a ride, so learn from it, we have all been there so don't worry all the best
  23. Ref: Canihavesubtitles, but it must be good as i got the bit about CIDER
  24. Digging over the veg patch, and wondering how well the veg will grow this year.
  25. was the lorry unloaded by hand ? :lol:
