  2. :scared1: Thats bad!!!!
  3. We use the green stihl 2stroke oil. We switched from using the red stihl 2stroke oil and noticed a definate improvment in saw performance.
  4. Love the oak tree/acorn t-shirt cobination
  5. Stevie blair did this... not sure what results he achieved, im sure he will be along in abit.
  6. Not alot of work around here atm mate, try arboricare or hi-line there biggish companies but do alot of powerline stuff. Could try ashculme tree care, there signs are littered all over the place around here so get there number off one of there signs lol
  7. Not sure mate, just ask for calibration certificates of the machine used, then a certificate for the machine used to calibrate that machine... if you get me? Heard on a couple occasions its got my mates out the poo. Not sure what the exact in's and outs's of it are... but they said it workeed.
  8. They were on radio 1 the other day, cant help but laugh at everything they say!
  9. Nice one, a friend has done the same many a time. Charges them a recovery fee to, has always worked. He always buys us a round of drinks with the "recovery money" so im not complaining about his debt recovery techniques
  10. If i come across a wasp nest, and im able to... Chuck a litre of diesel in, light, and run! Not been stung yet, hornets nests are the best for it though
  11. Sorry to hear that mate, i admit i probably get more attached to a dog than i would to a human... when they've gone its like your lost. Having a dog for company all the time and then for it not to be there, its painful stuff. I know how you feel mate... Chin up, like others have said its good to know a dogs led a happy life.
  12. Second that, i find with lowering it you also get stuff break off easily and if you've got high targets below you cant risk stuff like that happening. Cut and chuck all the way
  13. I bet that is actually worth a fairbit, and one loads of awards? Gotta love a ratty vdub!
  14. I will always be a big kid, got aload of britains farm machienery models and stuff in a display cabinet. I keep going to put them away as they take up to much room but can never bring myself to do it... Spent about 10years collecting them.
  15. what are the chances mate nice one
  16. Haha, i couldnt resist mate, i know they aint that slow.. i tweaked the fuel pump on mine and she used to go a treat Im with you though mate, iv never driven like a knob. Some of my mates do and they know i dont like it
  17. What you mean is.. i own a landrover and cant speed
  18. The company i work for only comprises of me and my boss, we both climb and ground, just take it turns. When it comes to lowering i dont find it awkward being the only person on the ground, we get a good little system going between us
  19. Who was your mate in cullumpton mate, thats just down the road from me.
  20. 066 all day everyday
  21. If he is found to be nicking stuff... you know what to do... :bash:
  22. I remember my first day, i was 15. Id been so excited knowing i had a job starting on monday, but over the weekend i came off my bike and pulled aload of skin of elbows, knees and chest. I was determind that i would still start this job though, i was all bandaged up and turned up for work. I got stuck right in dragging brash and raking all day, boss comented on my comitment, turning up in a pretty bad state but still working my bollox off all day. Im still with the same company now 4 and abit years on
  23. With targets like that, get it down.
  24. What driving lisence do you hold? Taking the test to tow a trailer over 750kg will be of great benfit to you as another qualification you could try and get under your belt...
  25. Duct tape, wd40, tool kit, cable ties, bailer twine, knife (that came from owning a landrover)
