  1. Shaved greyness here, with drive ins and a balding spot. Enjoy your hair while you can:biggrin:
  2. Our new 1 in the town has been decorated this morning.
  3. I used to put my Cs100 in my van, 2 ramps, bit of a push and it was in, it took a few weeks to get it sussex and I did fall off a ramp once! I bought a tail lift Luton, job done. The jobeau and Greenmech I think are even Stevens, I don't believe anyone on ere is defending either to save face. Personal preference I think, would I let anyone else borrow it, no chance. It takes an experienced cutter to use it too it's true potential. Be patient and do the job to suit the machinery.
  4. They have over tightened that bottom right nut and cracked the plastic!
  5. Good year here, The weather really made it.
  6. Pah, I can do jobs there and then if required , nothing a bit if job shuffling can't sort out.
  7. Well done indeed!! I've never watched that to the end without blubbing!
  8. I used to be £240 for a ton. Still never sold enough to make it worth while, it gave someone something to do before 9am and from 3.30pm to 5 pm.
  9. We gave it a wood lice to fight and it never budged and the said wood lice just walked away, it was a big show though. We called it the Ned of the insect world:biggrin:
  10. Nice 1 guys, thanks
  11. This is not me, just 1 I found. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0RfiGcMPKE&feature=youtube_gdata_player]Scottish Scorpion in Tullibody - YouTube[/ame]
  12. This little critter jumped off a wall and challenged me today, it was long and flat and then turned into a scorpion . There's 1 on utube aswell I'll put up. The customer took some pics on his camera and hopefully going to send me them.
  13. Got to be a Gloria. Search micro Chippers and Shreks wee Chipper on here. I am now finished for the day thanks to my cs100.
  14. Maybe in la la land:001_rolleyes:
  15. Nah, I've looked at that 1. It was parked beside mine when it got brought down the road for Chris to view.
  16. Installing a sense of pride in your team and machinery is priceless imo:001_smile:
  17. 10 minutes the night before saves an hour in the morning! Get the boy on it after he blows out the saws!
  18. Now that's a cracking idea:thumbup1: Hedge Hunter take note please:sneaky2:
  19. Do you think you'll have her done for Christmas Ross:biggrin:
  20. What was the rope attached to inside the window? Soured rope pulls up and locks, yellow rope slackens and drops? Very clever, I shall steal that idea 1 day:thumbup1:
  21. Make it more interesting, buy him a £15 splitting maul for the logs and a double headed throwing axe for fun:thumbup:
  22. I think this is down to the individual and their age. When I got my felling ticket at 19, I chucked my green keepers job and swaggered into the woods, with all the gear and no idea:001_rolleyes: I was almost in tears the first day and hated every other before I chucked it after 5 weeks:blushing: It took 3 years of the big bad world to toughen me up and when I got a shot at a real climbing job, I was under no illusions and I had wanted it so badly as i had felt so stupid for those inbetween years as I had had to return home with my tail between my legs. There will always be change in paperwork, that's the paperwork people doing there bit, the job will always be the same though,
  23. That was good, the 1 Ronnie at the end is quite sad. Took guts for Harry Enfield to do that.
  24. Mine was £80 about 6 years ago, I have lit it ontop of a mountain blowing a gail, I pressume mine is the fancy 1 you are swithering about. I forget about it for a year at a time, rinse it out andit ignites first time. I used a Kelly kettle once, what a pita!!
  25. It's a scooshy gun!!! Couple of old fuss pots
