  1. great vid but sadly he is not in a scooby !!!!!
  2. Paul , be carefull what you say as there are lots of tree officers from the devon and cornwall area . I know just how annoying it can be when the T.O does not give you the answer that you would expect of like BUT keep it profesionall . As for the cost of carrying out such aplications you need to work out what it is costing you in your time - this depends on how indepth your report goes and how much liasing with the client and TO you need to do so in all honesty you need to work out what it costs you . Anyway hope all goes well for you . Cheers Dave
  3. i insure with both trust and NFU , i have found both to be very good to deal with but i would not move my fleet policy to NFU and neither would i insure my mog with trust , i guess its a case of finding out who does what best . as for insuring plant for the sum of the finance taken out i would give trust a call , but lets be honest are there any insurance firms that will pay out on what you paid for it , for example - a guy pays 12k for a 2001 timberwolf 150 chipper and clearly paid way over the odds is that the insurace firms fault ?? nope !
  4. cheers for that , i could not get my head round the info guide on the hmrc website
  5. this may help MotorWeek: Road Test 2,400 lbs = 1090kg
  6. the 04/05 is a totally different beast and as far as i am aware it is not restricted to 750kg
  7. See i knew someone could make sense of what i was trying to explain
  8. hi guys , im just going through my books before i drop them over to my new accountant tomorrow and was just wondering if there is vat on road tax and also on insurances ????? i have looked on the hmrc site and confused my self even more . thanks Dave
  9. i thought that under EU law you had to include VAT in the advetised price and that your vat must show in the financial break down on your invoice .
  10. ha ha im pretty sure if it spent a week or two hauling timber it would never polish up like that again !!!
  11. now that would be amaing !! . it is amazing that a little tiny thing can run rings round some of the seasoned hairy arsed guys that have done it for years .
  12. anyoe fancy this for delivering logs/ timber ? . looks like an amazing piece of kit http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/KENWORTH-SALE-STUNNING-TRUCK-/250872791730?pt=UK_Commercial_Trucks&hash=item3a692f02b2
  13. ha ha just think you could tow a 750kg chipper behind at 155 mph lmao , well as long as it is on a "fast tow" trailer
  14. but would you reccomend such a heavy reduction on a nchestnut right beside a main road ? . also would you reccomend such a reduction if the tree was not in a condition to the Beech in you post ?? . sorry if i sound a little harsh , its not intended im genuinely interested
  15. In short my advice would be to try and have a look at a coppy of the new BS3998 standards , recent findings have shown that previously many 15% reductions were infact more like 50% reductions because the system many of us have used for gauging % when it comes to reducing trees was way off . Im sure this is something thet AA Tecide will be able to explain in far more detail then me and will make much more sense . It is well worth geting to a BS3998 update if the AA are running one near you
  16. anyone seen this on the bay ? not sure i woud be too keen to drive it off road !!! eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace
  17. very very good reliable cars , they have a good ground clearence and in comparison to the likes of a volvo cross country or the equivelent audi you will find the subaru very good value for money , i currently have an impreza as a fun car but if i needed a 4x4 estate then i would be jumping at the forrester
  18. ha ha ha thought i would have a look on the way back as i was only in st burryan , lol i was looked at like i was mad when a jumped out of the truck and asked two holidaymakers if they had seen some guys on ride on lawn mowers !!!!! now i feel propper silly
  19. just my luck that im still at work and about to leave the office to go to a fault . do you know roughly what time they will be there till ? failing that how can a make a donation ?
  20. so once again i would have to sent my self
  21. nice loking mog there steve , i am toying with getting my cab welded up and painted but its getting time to be able to spre it at the moment and as winter comes we will only be needing it more . i must say i do like the colour !! Top Job
  22. seeing im only a few miles away can you let me know when they expect to get to lands end and i will be waiting there with a tenner and a beer for them . i take my hat off to anyone who is prepared to do something like then . top men !!!!
  23. yeah i guess so , better still fence the tree off and let is do its own thing . but getting back to the thread - job well done and i still would have climbed it (even at 17 stone)
  24. yeah i guess it could have been retained but to what extent ? i personally could not see it looking all to plesent especially on the grounds of what appears to be a lovely camp site .
  25. hi Jamie , they are some amazing pictures i must say . I did some Geo work down in devon for 4 months back in 2004 and i must admit that although the pay is better i really did not miss going home covered in red sandstone . Just a quick question but in your most recent picture i see your using a shunt on your secondary line , i was told not to use a shunt as they can deform and fail when stress loaded in the event of a main line failure .
