  1. the only people i have heard that do it and do it well is bartlet tree expert
  2. i could not agree more masterh ,
  3. sorry bob i know the truth is some times a little booring but hey . could be wors thing i guess
  4. also the ua distances often are not the same as the utillity company , like down here in cornwall with wpd there systems of work and distances are not the same as set out by ua , if your not autherised by your local utility company to work around there powrlines and equipment then i would leave well alone tbh
  5. how about a bouncy castle with 3 turrets , a million hedgehogs and bill oddy dressed in drag ??? ha ha
  6. i feel its all about each persons ability , i would not ask anyone to do anything i could not do my self , take today for instance , we have been taking down a v large monterey pine , one of the limbs extended 45-50 feet away from the main trunk , there was no way of climbing it and cutting it safely decause of its location within close proximity tp buildings and the way in which it was situatedso we decided to use the crane we had on site and man basket , i was not proud to have to resort to that but it was the safest way to do it .
  7. wise up ??? at no point did i say every tree is climbable , however most tres are , i would not climb a tree that i feel i can not take dow in a safe controled manor , i strongly reccomend that you get some more experience before making such foolis comments , i knew a tree surgeon that refused to climb a tree that was in his oppinion not climbable , how ever it was in a dangerous state and a risk to the general public so i as the company i worked for at the time was asked to take it down , i climbed it and took it down , there were no risks taken and was taken down in a safe controled manor . the guy who said it was to dangerous to climb has since got out of tree work and sold what was left of his buisnes
  8. i think he will fortify the boarders with armed lookouts every 300 yards . oh and a big one way exit door back to europe lol
  9. nice picures , looks like a peech of a job
  10. well swb its down to you mate , what policies are you going to bring in mate ??
  11. hiya give brandon hire a call as they hire an air spade/ pick , i know it aint much fun doing it your self but hey if it saves the money you have to pay out then go for it
  12. hmmm all sounds a bt heated to me ,its ok if you bottled it , we cant all be pro's nor can we all be happy working on big trees but hey at least you tried it , there are some that cant Next time you get one like that shrek give me a shout i am more than happy to come up from cornwall and do it for you
  13. at least with swb as pm the goverment would stop wasting money on war and take a more liberal stance on porn , tampax oh and not to be forgotten free road tax for all mog owners , oh and chippers would be allowed to run on red , in fact lets try and get him elected for the AA
  14. in all fairnes those comments your talking about are out of order , i thought you were meaning my dry humor lol , but sorry if you took offence .
  15. i think a mog would be fine as long as it has his portrait pinted on either side of the chip box , inscribed - britain need you !! lol
  16. keep your wig on chap it was whats knwn as some humor , just the same as the scots do to us ,
  17. a pair of rubber underpants , some snorckle flippers and a bit of luck does it for me every time , well thats what borst tought me ha ha
  18. :thumbup1:as it says on the tin , who thinks SWB if fit for the job ????
  19. a tree is only un climbable to the climber that cant or wont do it , alot of climbers dont wanna push them selves out of there comfort zone , IMO if you are not willing to push your self out of your comfort zone you will never thos un climbable trees or awkward ones
  20. verry true gibbon , will be calling the aa on friday while the groundies clear up one hell of a mess that i will be making tomorrow ha ha how much do the aa tend to look into the office side of things and your yard ??
  21. stealing a climbers wife , his car , even his sole is one thing but to nick the last of his juice and food os taking it way to far
  22. my hips are already feeling it ha ha but on the serious subject of a pint up at the aa show on sat im all up for it mate .
  23. but in reality its he who charges the least , does what ever the client asks even at all cots to the tree winns , it really pi sses me right off , how can a bloke with a nisan cabstar just about got his basic climbing and some ropey saws oh and no chipper be allowed to compete on works for housing associations etc , just goes to show its not what you know or how well you do the job it more a case of csn you do it for 50% less than the reall arborists if so you have got it . sorry , my own post has got me up on the soap box again lol
  24. the tree we are taking down is 120 feet tall and has a crown spread of roughly 120 feet
  25. how can it go un noticed with a lovely great mog ,
