  1. Your mate needs to use his phone call don’t assume that all will be ok in the end he needs to be proactive, get legal representation
  2. I think of it as a true target rifle. I’m never going to get permission for Dear
  3. I have been thinking of getting a .5 before I get too old to see the target, I am now thinking of a.388 just need to tell the Mrs
  4. A license is not required in England and Wales one is required in Scotland and Northern Ireland
  5. No, there’s a few members of parliament who see the .5 as a danger to the police and public and feel that licensing air weapons would stop them being abused just the anti gun lobby
  6. Once this government ban 50 calibre rifles a air rifle licence will be next
  7. Yes as far understand your smooth and fac don’t cover sub 12 air rifles
  8. Yes and if you take your air rifle or pistol to Scotland so will you!
  9. I have the husky on demo at the moment the stihl arrives next week, I’m going to invest just don’t know which my husky is number two the first was broken straight out of the box. My feel for it is it’s long and plasticky, I like the two power modes and the tooless chain tension. i think I need to investigate the batteries more there are many variables here and major cost implications
  10. Also try the Milwaukee saw bosch are bringing out a saw in the new year given that bosch have the best batteries it might be worth waiting for I’m looking at a 14 inch stihl saw but running the twelve inch bar to increase chain speed
  11. Tirfor x2 dig in some good ground anchors multi attachment points then pull it over if the root are bad not the place or time to try a cut that will go wrong
  12. Will the trailer need to be tested for compliance?

    Tool thefts

    If they know where to look what about a microchip in the crankcase difficult to get to similar to the dog traceability scheme

    Tool thefts

    The serial number is not on a national data base there is no method of tracing the purchaser of the saw from the serial number just look at the police auction sites

    Tool thefts

    Ok what could the saw manufacturers do to make theft of the tools of our trade more difficult ? im not thinking about throw away tools just the professional expensive ones i think that all pro tools should be automatically registered on a data base when purchased
  17. It’s temperature at night that should dictate when you prune not time of year wait until all heavy frosts have passed heavy prune good mulch to feed it should go well
  18. I believe that they profit greatly from the sale of tools to replace the ones we have had stolen so why should they do anything
  19. Remember it’s in the interest of the manufacturer that they don’t make them hard to steal or sell on
  20. Well draining topsoil will make the trench a bog garden make sure the soil is compacted I would use a clay loam and don’t allow water to flow into the trench
  21. I would not drill holes the drill will smear the clay and they will fill up with water , I would put a layer of stone in the bottom then put in the trees packing them in well with a good natural loam not one of the manufactured shite topsoils that seem all the rage water pipe to the roots and try to leave the surface flat or slightly raised to shed the water, planted a few golf course like this they seem to survive educate the client about watering

    Battery saw

    Decided I need a battery saw so which one do I get thinking of a ms 200 with 12 inch bar. Any thoughts before splash the cash ? I liked the fine chain on the stihl
  23. I’m going to use it mainly for landscape with a tilt bucket, I liked the weight I’m going to tow with a Landy digs deeper than 216 with more reach, 125 looks too big for some of my works, I dig holes for gas governors
