  1. They're fantastic mowers. I bought mine second hand 14 years ago and all I've done to it is service it and sharpen the blades. My lawn is about 3/4 of an acre so while the mower hasn't been overworked it has had a fair bit of abuse.
  2. Robert S. Thanks, I use Akro quite often, didn't know they had a tracked one (will phone to enquire) Slasherscot. Thanks, Yeh I knew about Stumpbusters, was wondering what else was out there. Nick. Thanks, it's a long way from London and I doubt if there's enough to make it worth your while. Sandcastles. Thanks. Yeh I know about Delisle will phone to enquire.
  3. Does anyone know where I can hire a tracked stump grinder in Southern Scotland either self drive or operated ? Thanks
  4. Went back to biking a few years ago after a 20 year gap. I bought a 1983 Honda CB650 nighthawk which was the same as the last one I had 20 years ago. Sold it 18 months ago and bought a Yamaha Vmax 1200 . I'm sure my arms are slightly longer as a result of riding it (bl**dy fast) but great fun.
  5. I've got an HTC HD2 which I think is a great phone.
  6. Had a 6718 about 20 years ago. Good enough small tractor for light work.I twisted the half shaft pulling a tanker which was just a little too big for it The built in compressor was handy and if you have a big family or loads of mates you can get them all in the cab at the same time
  7. Built this one myself, works well for me.
  8. I use the Icicle but occasionally use a Distel which is similar, both good knots and smooth to use.
  9. Thanks for the replies, I'll pass your suggestions on.
  10. Mate of mine is looking for a large mulcher to hire for mulching brash on a clear fell site in the Catterick area probably week before Christmas. Any recommendations ? Thanks
  11. If you are still looking for boots try Clarks web site for a pair of these Lavoro Sherwood Chainsaw Boots £115.00 (VAT exempt) I bought a pair of size 12 but ended up giving them to my brother as I felt they were too big (he takes size 13) and he says they fit great.
  12. HTC HD2 is my current phone & probably one of the best I've had. Touch screen takes a bit of getting used to but then I've got fingers like sausages!! Phone works great with Anquet maps pocket software if you happen to use OS maps (GPS works very well with this).
  13. Ok Hoppy I'll pass your details on. Thanks

  14. Mate of mine needs a groundsman/second climber for a couple of days in Newquay starting week commencing 8th November. If you are interested pm me your details and I'll pass them on. Must hold cs38 & 39.
  15. Built this myself, works very well Produces 3200psi at 40 ltrs/min
  16. Yep phone and ask as Stevie said, you been working for them ?
  17. I've done it (doesn't happen often) but adds value to a felling or take down job.
  18. How do you write a risk assessment for this
  19. Bats would not have made the hole, they roost in natural features or holes made by other creatures.
