i dont get how people say landrovers are unreliable ? ive had 6 over the last ten years and not one of them has let me down ? ,i reckon they get the reputation for being unreliable as there are so many more working landrovers out there more than any other 4x4 and take more abuse and need a little maintenance from time to time , the people who end up buying knackered landrovers are the poeple who buy the ones covered in lights and snorkals and havnt got a clue about anything else .

if your sick your sick , some people cope better than others and if you have a sniffly cold your better off going to work ,but if you got full blown man flu or sickness bug then rest is more important , ive had food poisening this weekend from a chicken kebab friday night ! i still feel fraglie so tommorow ive organised an easyer day , few logs ,price a few jobs walk dogs and early home :thumbup1:i wont climb till i feel ive got my energy back , everybody gets sick its life and not worth worrying about

i would definatly reduce from top down as you can see you growth point you want to be cutting to a lot better , also if you have stuff on the ground you dont want to damage (i.e plants, pots etc etc ) most of the stuff you cut wiill lay on branches below and use it as a catch till you climb down and pull em out to throw them where you want , a good groundsman though is always good the first few you get up in your probably spend the first 30 mins looking confused and just staring at branches thinking to yourself where the hell to start once you get the hang of your love it :thumbup1:Defo use a silky and the best thing ive ever picked up from working with different people is to get your self a good pair of secauters and holder clip to your harness , there great for little fiddly bits and annoying bits that get stuck in your earmuffs !
