  2. Ha good work, im on it!
  3. Congrats to you Mr Bolam...
  4. My hands are in pretty good nick after 13 years in arb, forestry and farming. My missus bought me some Hemp oil protection cream from body shop and it is spot on, dosnt make em soft but helps when they start cracking in winter.
  5. Father in law owns his own joinery firm and he has loads of Dewalt drills, sanders, planers etc and swears by them. Ive got a 18v Dewalt and it is bob on...
  6. Hmm maybe but it was in a blue/green bottle last year... Avon might have just changed the bottle eh?
  7. Bingo! Thats what we use, it works a treat for pretty much everything. Makes my head shine though...
  8. Listen to what your told, work hard, dont be late, dont moan. Good luck
  9. I was to busy trying not to crash the loader i was laughing so hard... I saw some of of my accomplices ( spelt right ?) taking pics so il get em to hand em over. My jaw is still sore from laughing....

  11. One of the lads who works for us comes to work on a wee 125 dirt bike looka like thing so while he was working this morning me and some other deviants cling filmed his bike and used the loader to put it 20 ft up in union on a oak.... tied in place of course. Not happy.
  12. Nonsense mate im 6.5 and 19 stone! I am not as quick as the skinny lads on the ropes but i fly up trees on spikes. Get a petzl sequoia size 2 and get cracking

  15. HA ! Man after my own heart, i used to love a bit of " rogue felling "!
  16. Dont know about the Yew but when you felling the oak in the background? Make something nice outta that! User name- Kraftinwood is a woodturner on here who is always after stuff like that.
  17. Everyone is getting worked up over something thats gonna happen regardless how many signatures are sent to the government. I dont agree with trashing woodlands in the name of progress but when the coalition came into power one of there key policy's was to upgrade our infrastructure so its gonna happen.
  18. We have planted 36,000 Nordman Fir this week... I am seeing xmas tree's in MY SLEEP!
