  1. Top 3 fung guys... lol
  2. Goodbye big fart! LOL
  3. Lol, I wouldnt. I would add a load of Spanish names, great climbers, albeit old school, out here!
  4. Not worthy!
  5. since experiencing the hurricane, tree work will never be the same again for me.
  6. Mr Ed did a whole line of conifers at once. I will try and find the video...
  7. See I told you you would get respeck from your peers
  8. The real question is, is Dan really a certified arb or not? Hot topic!
  9. To add anything from Jerry. He has 3 sets of dvds out. I have 2 and 3, they are invaluable for any tree guy to watch. Working climber series 1 2 3
  10. That'll be Peter
  11. Bob, still a load of cleanup! We were toying with the idea of posting a thread here for someone to come over to play with us. You gotta have big cuevos though.. BIG
  12. So I felled this oak stick, and this was the result. I can say it looked good! But it didn't smell of anything. Ever had this happen to you?
  13. First time I seen you do any work Jonny.
  14. You want real storm work yo should come here. Lol
  15. Hey Reg, still waiting for the net to come back after Sandy! Can't really watch on phone as too slow!
  16. Who really cares?
  17. You are correct gray git. He asked us to try and not damage how pool, and came out with a oner. This work IME is the toughest tree work going. You never know what you will come up against next. I've had an unreal time the last 4 weeks! Being made homeless, working long days, being given huge respect wherever we go, bottles of whiskey, people cheering, really makes you feel good. Long days but good money. There are still trees on houses! Keep em comin baby.
  18. Just caught up with your thread. Nice one on the job. So you not coming to help me in New York now???
  19. I would if I was around!
  20. News! Is bad! And good... Absolute desolation here. I left my place on monday morning. Was out working in the pre hurricane, one street tree uprooted over a road, hung up. Crazy winds! Stayed at Rob's that night, drinking.... the river at the back of his house flooded bad! His basement screwed. We were wading thru deep water trying to get the generator on! Will never forget that night! Next day we were clearing streets. Didnt turn on the headcam. Mental. It really ripped Long Island a new AHOLE! Do a search on youtube for long beach sandy. We are just starting on residential works! Still loads of trees down. And we had a snow storm which caused loads more tree damage! Oh mother nature you beauty!
  21. Well we are still alive! Absolute craziness for the past 15 days. Today is my first day off! So im in the pub eating, drinking, and uploading some film. Here is some action.... Following hurricane Sandy, we are on duty for the Electric dept. to clear fallen trees from the cables. All the power is obviously off! Very high stress work, working as quickly and safely as possible. The care for property, fences is lesser than normal! Once the wires are free, our job is done. We had no clean up!

  22. Also contactarb is from Chester.
  23. It's narrow minded comments like that that make me not very patriotic.
