  1. Careful with the Bernese mountain I have had two both cost over ten grand in vets bills very bad DNA from in breeding
  2. £8000 fine divide by 27 = £300 per tree I know a lot of developers who would pay that to remove trees from sites.the fine isn’t even small change, replanting would happen anyway with the associated landscape works I think £8000 per tree should be closer to the mark
  3. Anyone know anything about this stump grinder
  4. Nice but if you need tracks that wide could you walk or pull brash on ground that wet? I hate to think how much wet soil would go through the chipper
  5. If you are going to finance the machine buy new you get warranty/service, peace of mind knowing the machine has been cared for, The second hand machines have got their best years behind them and are being sold before they start to cost,£6000 is maybe one yrs finance @£125 a week not a lot and you get to keep the machine as long as you want and looked after they will last years.
  6. Is that at the level of the assumed graft or below, how deep is the picks image?
  7. What did the pics of the graft look like?
  8. My money is on a graft by a Victorian gardener most old copper beech I’ve seen are grafted
  9. The tree business is fucked too many people chasing too little work,colleges turning out far more students than the industry needs all thinking they are bees knees, and no one wanting to do the dirty work get out while you can!!, And clients who think they can pay nothing for a skilled team and tens of thousands pounds worth of kit
  10. Ok what happens been using mine for the last coney hedge
  11. Priced a leylandi removal in Chelsea everything had to go up steps from garden through house and down steps, no parking outside house.The house was immaculate white walls and carpets.turned up on day one to find street closed and big crane lifting in conservatory, turned out tree was in way so they lifted it out and laid it in the road home by five £3600 plus the vat. And I bought a lottery ticket
  12. I have a county high top that’s 32 years old and still working

    Went to buy this saw today, stihl dealer didn’t know it existed, stihl rep knew nothing about it had to make a call,seems it’s not available till maybe October. What’s the point in advertising the saw they don’t even know how much it’s going to cost !!!!
