  1. My girlfriend said it looks like it has Alopecia
  2. I tried to use a little tact in my review of the reduction, but this is much better. Sorry tom, it is pug ugly.
  3. Gonna have to say it - I do not like whats happened to that tree. Sorry. Lots of stubs and it could be the camera angle but the shape is all over the place tom2020's post that is, not the one above.
  4. hehe - classic episode
  5. Nicely done. First time hey? I bet my first time will be a really horrible pop in the rain. The weather looks beautiful
  6. Sorry! Maybe get someone in the know to set it up like I have on that picture. (as in you click, for example, the button 'ARBTALK' on the left of that toolbar and it goes straight to 'todays posts')
  7. Don't you have them bookmarked? All the sites that i use alot are along the top of my browser (firefox), so a single click brings them up Like this....
  8. Good shots ben!
  9. Sorry too late mate, sold today to mazuma.com for £235
  10. Excellent opportunity for someone!
  11. ha! nah just get a decent anti virus ESET NOD32, Bulldog, AVG or Kaspersky are much better.
  12. It's just Norton. Quic search on the web reveals other forum users with norton reporting the same. Perhaps Norton doesn't like some of the advert codes? Nothing to worry about in any case.
  13. My work pics aren't terribly exciting or good quality as they're off phones. Hope you don't mind if I share a few of my favourites out of work, namely travelling around europe in our campervan. I'll include some trees to keep it on topic! I had to free climb about 30ft up a tree to get this sunset shot. Western Spanish Pyrenees... Ordesa National Park, Spain Double Rainbow in Provence, France
  14. <p>No worries - the google maps and yell.com method worked for me a few years ago when i was in your position. Don't be afraid to phone every single company and think of it like you are doing them a favour by offering your services. Work out what you will say on the phone and away you go....</p>

  15. Here you go, there's about 25 companies within 30 miles of Wragby... https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=tree+surgeon&hl=en&sll=53.312827,0.082397&sspn=0.836882,2.705383&gl=uk&hq=tree+surgeon&t=m&z=9 and if they aren't on there try this yell.com search..... Tree Work in Wragby, Market Rasen | Reviews - Yell Phone every single company on there and if they don't have anything right now, email them your CV so if something does come up they know where to look.
  16. Sorry, just noticed a couple of mistakes your original post. Emailing/messaging potential employers with spelling errors is always a bad look. Have you phoned every company within a reasonable commuting distance?
  17. If it's arb work you are after, I think you have answered your own question. You are at college (ie not yet qualified) and can only work two days (fixed days i presume) a week. If it's non arb work you are after just to get money - there are plenty of part time / evening jobs. Also, I would advise downloading a spellchecker add-on for your internet browser.
  18. It might just be a case that the company you who told you to get insurance are misinformed - no reason to turn down work!!! Let him know the situation about not needing insurance on his jobs.
  19. Rupe is right. If you are working under their direction, doing their job, you WILL be under their insurance. Simple.

    I would pay £1.99 for an ad free version. I would say it's cheaper than a pint nowadays, but i got a pint of Adnams bitter for £1.99 the other day - couldn't believe it!
  21. My uncle lives in bermuda - i should really take advantage of this, but the flights are still £500+ Not a chance!
  22. Not going on any proper holidays this year, probably at least 3 festivals though so not all bad
  23. What are the chances of the winning bidder turning up and giving him £3k though? Fair play to him if he does get it, bet he can't believe his luck!
  24. Have you tried arbjobs or earborist?
  25. Erm lighten up (I'm giving you a w***** sign across t'net )
