  1. 3 tie wraps, job done. the bottom stitching will probably go on the legs aswell mate. i got mine at the apf, so cant take them back anyway. great trousers
  2. it does look that way tim but it actually falls towards the camera. have been caught out before when felling big stuff in a wood, then all of a sudden something crashes down beside you:scared1:
  3. i have had one for over 9 years now, cost me 35quid in nz. great jackets:001_smile:
  4. i think it all depends on the input you give the kids when you see them. my wife has an amazing relationship with her dad, and she saw him once a fortnight on a sunday. she has no bad memorys of him. just all big fun adventures. I spent every minute with my dad up to the age of 14. now we struggle to be in the same room for more than 10minutes. sometimes you can be too close and smother them. its a hard one mate, one i hope i never have to make. best of luck.
  5. cracking big base on that pop, i believe the photo wont do it justice. Are you wanting it taken down to the fork? i think pete and edd will have that done in 10 mins mate.
  6. my bluetooth are excellent, but the range is 200m. i dont know if that is enough. you can have a conversation no bother if someone is feeding chipper and other is working saw. really clear and it muffles out all other noises.
  7. same old same old, thats why i crown reduce bagonias these days. the big pound signs always lure you in, but glad you guys didnt get burned.
  8. it sounded very tempting, even from all the way up here. the excavator must have been great on site.
  9. was that the contract that was advertised in the btm last year? it rings a bell.
  10. i love conifers. big takedowns look good but are hard work and everyone prices them to get them up here. let them have them i say. Couple of connys a day keep the bank manager away.
  11. about 33ton lol dont know mate. the farm 90hp john deere tows it no bother. it is a bit nose heavy with crane on, i wouldnt go sticking it on an old 135.

  16. we did a job where we ended up dragging a council bin over and 084ing off that. those spikes can be tricky lol. I think we must have went to the same school of tree cutting. he he:001_smile:
