  1. Good morning folks, we have Harr which is rare here as we sit about 850feet. It’ll burn through. Stay safe!
  2. Morning all, beautiful blue sky warm day here, got a bit of a fuzzy head from the pub last night. a day of full breakfast, dog walking up the river and generally potteraboutery.
  3. morning chaps, I've been flat out for 2 weeks since the storm, had to go south and collect machines on Monday and get them to Inverness. Today is a definite rest day, just a couple of tip runs for the good lady and mostly eating I think.
  4. morning, blue Skys and windy here. It was blowy yesterday and it's still breezy now. Going to head east to an agricultural show for a look around.
  5. Morning, suns out and blue sky here
  6. Morning, well Floris has brought me in a few weeks work which is needed tbh after a quiet bird nesting 2 months.
  7. Morning Pete, my tinnitus is bad when I stress, the bodies in alert mode I believe. Off out to tidy up after Floris.
  8. Monkey Puzzle takedowns are like War stories, never a good 1! Evil trees!
  9. you joeboo owners are used to such poor performance I'm not surprised, when you run a high performance unit like the CS100 the tiniest change seems huge, like a race horse or formula 1 car!
  10. the swivel I think will cause more problems that not, anytime I used to turn the head 90 degrees it would clog up as it disrupts the flow of the chip, its ok until you get to 90 degrees. It's not like a normal chipper where the spout can turn at the point it leaves the flywheel/drum. It goes from a wide tapering chute to a narrower spout that you then will turn and create a flat wall so to speak. Gloria is perfect the way she is, just leave her be!🤔😂
  11. Morning, wet through the night but blue sky for now. hatches are battened down, long distance Robo job postponed and a day of not very much. but fingers crossed for some windblown tree work as im bored and skint !
  12. Morning gents, it’s been raining through the night but dry now, storm Florence is forecasted so plenty of rain on the way, I don’t mind it on a Sunday, I get another season of Yellowstone watched (again)
  13. Time Left: 11 days and 19 hours

  14. Morning, sunny here so far, dog walking potter about for me today. have a good day guys
  15. Morning gents, bit of rain through the night, dry for now. I'm off today, it was an easy start yesterday with 7 hours driving to almost the top of Scotland for work. Migies were wild! the boys are up again today to finish off. Away to take the good lady out for the day.
  16. Morning gents, overcast and dry here. A day collecting rock nets for a future job and Robo is getting an issue sorted hopefully.
  17. Morning gents, overcast here. my Youngest starts today until school goes back. easy Monday dropping off borrowed kit and collecting high sides for the mog trailer that I've been meaning to do for a year. more of a rd trip day tbh. enjoy!
  18. morning, its hard seeing your dogs age, I second an osteopath, it does wonders for us to get put back into place so the same for animals. My eldest boy is home this weekend so its been nice having him home, we had breakfast and did so me chores yesterday and then walked the dog where I gave him a go of the drone, he's always been into things and good with technology then we came home and watched Happy Gilmour 2! I thought it was great, then Chineese for dinner. A proper good day.
  19. Morning! wee bit hazy here due to the pub last night! dry and mild. eating, pottering, dog walk me thinks
  20. morning chaps, I've been taking a few days of. weather around 16 degrees and pleasant.
  21. Robo wincho out the last 2 days!
  22. Morning guys. Overcast here and some rain through the night which was needed.
  23. Morning team, took the day off yesterday and went a pedal about the mountains. Heading North now to go scout a job we’re on in the next 2 weeks. Hopefully the tourists don’t get in the way too much.
  24. Morning, blue sky here. Yesterday was cooler with a breeze and then rain to clear the air. A day of pottering I believe.
  25. I was the same, the time before the internet said log burners were good! I used to bring it back to the yard and just build it up, some people would help themselves to it, the firewood own log burner guys, then I got my first roof mount and before I knew it after a storm I had a big stack. Then the firewood guys would bicker and cause hassle so I’d build a big bonfire and torch it. 30-40 tons a couple of times a year. Looking back that would have been up until around 2010 too.
