  1. Nice machine. Bit of a root and stump week last week.
  2. Morning, belter blue sky and frost here. T shirt yesterday in the sun and shaping up to be better today. Heading out onto the hill to scrape around a keepers lunch hut. Views will be good.
  3. Morning, frosty and blue sky here again. Currently looking at my frozen washing on the line I forgot to bring in yesterday 😂 have a good day!
  4. Morning , cracking blue sky -1 here. Starlings are here, is that normal? I thought we only got them in late summer. A day of easy tree shearing on a keepers track and path outside the village. Have a good day.
  5. Morning Doug, hope you get a chance to give your brain a wee rest today! Bit of drizzle this morning and overcast, I quite like a Sunday like this.
  6. Morning, 1 degrees and blue sky’s here!
  7. Morning, fresh and breezy here on the west coast.
  8. 2nd time using the Robo winch yesterday, worked really well and good for pushing timber and brash too. 8e8895ee-4f2c-44f0-b82c-78d27a69fc3c.mp4
  9. Morning, yesterday was a cold 1 with heavy rain then snow. Todays much better, I am concerned about the bumblebee I saw on Sunday though! small woodland tidy up job today.
  10. Morning folks, amazing weather yesterday. Lapwings were courting and I saw a bumblebee! wee bit of rain through the night here, felling with Robo winch today and everything left on site.
  11. I have swinging hammer on the Robo, saving for a fixed tooth. Fed up changing hammers but it’s a huge jump in money. fixed tooth spins faster and up to speed quicker I’d say, much tougher and not as much debris flying, glides over the rocks compared to whacking and breaking hammers, bolts, collars and nuts. What I would say is when it gets to whips skinny stuff it’s harder to catch with the gaps between tooth’s. But you can just go into the soil . the Robo never dies compared to the digger always needing to come off the button for moving the boom up and out but the drum momentum keeps going.
  12. Really well John. Couldn’t fault it today.
  13. Morning, starting to get light and rain has stopped. Have a good day guys.
