  1. I will miss texting Justin at 1 pm from a tree and getting up the next day and getting a prezie from the posty!!
  2. You are all doomed!!! Personally I think it's a great idea, if such a small thing has brought disaster to so many tree surgeons, I can go back to being the only 1 in the area and buy a big unimog again and make loads of money like the good old days!!! Maybe our local dealer can re open before the bulldozers move in and the half dozen guys will get their jobs back that they had for 30 years !!
  3. I had helcibacta for years and didn't know it, went to the doctors, a week of pills. Job done!!! Stress plays a huge part in stomach stuff. The more you worry, the worse it gets! Hypnotherapy is fantastic for helping you relax and destress. Take a look at the stress thread, you will feel better once you know you are not alone.
  4. Quad and a strop or a 20 ton forwarder,depends on the job. More info and pics would help.
  5. What suggestions has she made to help your situation or did she think haveing a good moan would really help you! Maybe it's time for a trade in
  6. Just spoke to BT, unlimited broadband and 500 free minutes for business landline for £99 a quarter inc vat and they have credited me £75 for Februarys extra charge. i am delighted:thumbup:
  7. Thanks for all the info guys:thumbup1:
  8. I doubt we use that much, but compared to 7 years ago. There are 3 iPhones, 1 iPad and 2 internet Tvs. We are the same Steve, BT line is only there for looks on a website
  9. If you have contracts you have a business if not, you have kit to sell. Arbtrader is there on the right of the page for that.
  10. My package is over 7 years old, things have changed a bit since then, so we use a lot more wifi, BT are trying to charge me £75 extra for 1 month. I await there reply to my email, but I would like to know what others pay for unlimited with them and what other offers are out there. Thanks
  11. Battery saws the way, nobody even knows your there!
  12. They came to you, you organised the treatment, everyone's home safe! Job done!! If you went for a pint rather than help, then you would be a bad dad!! Your training and experience jumped in , now you are home and all alone, you are dad again. I worry myself to sleep every night about the days near misses, my lack of patience and how I could of done things better! You did good mate:)
  13. They could of been felled easy and turf fixed with a bulldog rake and all mashed Down in the back of an ldv tipper, but not as cool !!
  14. Brilliant, all the gear and knowing how to use it! I heard the power brooms were good but had never seen 1 working. Funny how it stole the show lol!! Maybe because it's something we could have out the whole video:)
  15. Welcome, use the search button up the top, there is loads of info on there. Also there is a handy Ignore button on your profile for members you may want to place on it
  16. Took me a while to find you inthe first pics, big old tree!!
  17. Topped a Sitka that took about 10 mins as Pull chord jammed on 020. Made sure there was no step on the hinge so I didn't need to do a second cut to flush it!
  18. There are 3 at Dunblane , 1 monster out inthe field and 2 at the roundabout , also 2 south of Aucterarder. I think they are great.
  19. Now if your content, then that's worth listening too:thumbup1
  20. Best advice I ever took was pick your top 5 customers, ditch the rest, and find another 5 the same as the first 5, then repeat, repeat repeat. Apart from that, cash flow is the secret:thumbup1:
  21. Greg and Sloth, are you guys minted? If you are, I am listening, if not I am going with Nailer, coolest truck on the forum:thumbup1:
