i am glad my local constabulary arent as clued up as you what about a valmet with a 50k box?

respect.thats not luck.look how he stands at the bottom watching. awesome.

what did it have on it?

now i know.what if he drove really slowly:001_smile:

your a wise man ed, they obviously want to use you ben when there are loads of us guys twiddling our thumbs.but if your subbies have been good to you and you can throw them a bone i am sure they will appreciate it.

:confused1: how.

without winch.36k mate. a price put that on it for a private sale.

i found that the machinery finds the work. i do loads of jobs for builders and gardeners now, its another string to the bow. its amazing where you can get into if it is going to save a bit of handballing. I used to use other folk for backhanders but you always had to work around them, or they would let you down. but i think working round the landrover will limit the crane idea. hey i could sell you a mog to go with my trailer.

cant get that to play. what do i have to do. i need to see it.

this i got to see,

there was a guy at the highland show who had a small crane with power pack on a road trailer, i think he was at the apf as well. looked excellent. i tried to buy one off the stand 2 years ago but he wouldnt sell it because he couldnt get it to work properly. he had just got it imported a few days before, so he was honest enough to not just sell me it untill he had it checked out. it had barn doors and you could add bolsters. the only thing was the weight, but it was only a landy that could legally cover the load. it was about 4k. they were canadian. his enquiry book was like the yellow pages. maybe someone here has a contact.

its having the bottle to shimy down while that bad boy is above you. i think its a bit like the axemen triple felling windblow. i wonder why so many loggers get hurt?

you get a good sleep, caber tossing starts at noon

only in a magazine, cool though.

hey dean, your old nemisis here. if you are after a basic trailer just for lifting stuff i made one up a few years ago, now surplus to requirements.

do they giant pockets fur ma irn bru?

does any one fold trees in tight spots. idont know if that is what you call it. if tree is twice the hieght of garden but there is a landing zone(only 5 priceless statues and a gazibo)nip up the tree and put a line on.throw that into nieghbours with groundie.come half way take gub out towards nieghbours and cut enough to hold enough to go with a pull. put another line on below felling cut and give to groundie in garden. nip down and fell into landing zone. with a bit of pulling either way hey presto folded tree in garden. only works on chewy stuff. never had bottle to do it on anything over 30ft. its only benificial when tall and skinny to save on sawdust.

wellingtonia me thinks, i just know it was tricky bark. about 30 feet round base and made one big thump when it hit the deck.82 yrs old it was.

it will match your courtesy kilt, and you will need handsfree for the haggis catching mate

my contract phone gives me free calls to orange, so you could get another cheap phone, plug in ear peaces and away you go. the beauty with my headsets is that it drowns everything out and you can basically whisper to each other, not that you have to. there is also a muffler button. if i am in the tractor and worker is cutting like mad, he can hit a button so he can hear me and i cant hear all the noise at his end. but i can still relay messages to him. we wear them just for about everything now. even when someone greasing mog or doing maintenance i can walk all around farm and have a yap. you get the jist

My ones are about 4 years old now, they were very high spec at the time. I never got a box because i got them second hand. I would go on the web, i even see argos does them. The earmuffs slide straight into the 2 prong bits on the stihl hats, personally i dont like the stihl hat. there was a stand at the apf on the right just as you went in beside the monster chipper. they were doing them built into helmets for around 150plus vat. I paid 350 for mine. They have broke down twice, but just a fault in the wire where it had kinked. 20quid to the local tv repair guy and it was as good as new.

You are doing the right thing, let the lawyer deal with it and try and move on, it is hard to do because it eats away at you. I had a mentalist on the phone saying i stole his fence. I took down some bushes for a guy(JIM) and there was a pumped old fence amongst it. they didnt know it was even there so he asked if i could take it away. so i through it on the trailer. This was the nieghbour phoning 10 days later to have a go. i told him to take it up with the first guy. long story short, he couldnt get anywhere with jim because he told him point blank to go and xxxx himself and closed the door. so it took him 10 days to call me to blame. I laughed and told him to do what ever he wanted. 5 minutes in the police station the next day and that was that. the police didnt care, they have enough to do. that was months ago, havent heard a squeak.Lawyers letter straight away to show him you aint a pussy. As i said yesterday i was getting bumped for 5k, lawyer got onto him yesterday with recorded delivery and the cheque is in my account today. lets hope it clears.

i have a smooth coated fox terrier as well, we used to live in an old gatehouse with a monster log burner. the pointer would give up and go and lie in a draft. but the foxy would lie there panting with steam coming off it. the only thing that would shift it would be a spark, but you had to smell the burning fur first.
