  1. the boys christmas/birthday present, safer and cheaper than a quad and more useful for the lad
  2. painting lunge
  3. was a farm labourer/mechanic etc farm i worked on got foot and mouth, couldnt go to work, no work, went to college to learn RFS course, started up on my own with a young family and mortgage, best thing i did.
  4. there you go mate, what goes around, comes around - leave em to it
  5. coal prices seem to go up year on year, yet when we introduce a legitimate price increase, which is way overdue, customers want to haggle or wont pay it, but i dont haggle with my coal man or my derv supplier or for any other commodity
  6. as for the pile of firewood, its worth what you want it to be worth, if you sell it yourself as fierwood, youll make a good return, if you want rid quick, get some offers in, it cant be all crane picked up, looks like it needs all handballing, so either into back of a tranny and lots of trips or someone with a grab wagon to pick up, either way id say youve got about 12 -15 tonne may be more, no way of knowing unless you go over a weighbridge with the loads, there at say £35 if someone comes to pick up (Mrs. L. guessing - i may be wrong will askMr. for his opinion when he gets in - im guessing with the knowledge of what our 12t trailer unloaded looks like, but then again thats all straight stuff in one long run
  7. mac, im guessing without the superior knowledge of Mr. Logbaron whos busy refurbishing a county cab - so im guessing as a lady, be kind - 8-10 tonne?
  8. yes Simon Groom , he lives not that far away from here at Dethick nr Matlock,Derbyshire, he still runs his farm and you can caravan and camp and b&B there, still does a bit of local radio etc.
  9. The baron onto Tokyo telling them to" buy buy buy " - or was he telling us to put the kettle on:confused1: Stetson and beige suit put away for the evening - casual attire only, so designer Primark shirt and Charity shop shorts:001_tt2:
  10. get a really dry log, cut down the length of it like a cross but leave about 12" at bottom, light at the top and it burns inside out, wont colllapse until the very end. - will patent it shortly:lol: - i can make you some for a small fee:lol:
  11. charlieh and the logbarons and all our friends have a bbq, the oil barrel bbq has its first outing and all kept warm with the pine candles, a semi lunge with the boys and the pine candle - very half hearted boys!
  12. think you mean Abies Grandis
  13. charlie, stop kidding yourself, you know you really want to be on that massey:lol:
  14. classic:lol: - i also like mesterh comments on using other peoples photos of making hay:sneaky2:
  15. got ours done last weekend cut friday, baled it saturday - hay made in one day almost unheard of, but the crop was so sparse and thin it soon baked it dry - our silage was not much better, what looked like a field of 5ft grass was cut but all leggy nothing in the bottom. silage round here set to go to about £15 a bale from £8.50 last year if this continues, no rain has meant a very poor crop and no doubt straw will rise too already at £85-£100 a tonne
  16. Wholesale, we still have available about 2,000 nets of hardwood logs in nets, sizes 45x60cm red nets. Please contact asap as we are selling out fast, if interested please pm or ring Rohan on 07970 040755 price £2.10 a net for quantities over 1500 nets, under 1500 £2.35, subject to VAT at standard rate, prices for collection only, we can get a haulage rate for you if interested - wood is beech, sycamore, ash SUMMER PRICES ONLY - ORDER NOW TO GET THIS PRICE.
  17. alot of aphid types dont like a spray of soapy water a mix of washing up liquid and water spayed on - organic - but dont know if it will work on these? - worth a try as costs very little?
  18. dont know if anyones interested, but Heartwoods | sustainable timber | timber grants | forestry | Heartwoods Ltd and smallwoods assocaition i bellive are running woodland courses in autumn, for forestry workers etc, covering coppicing, woodland management etc hedgelaying - for more info see heartwoods website - all the courses are subsidised greatly for foresters - they were on at £400 and some of the courses are available at only £30 for 2 days
  19. i would suppose type of area plays a big part, we are in a very rural area with people having large ddrives to tip loads on so majority of tip loads etc, but in an urbanish situation nets rule i would think, i know of one of our wholesale customers over nottingham way, he sells in nets only.
  20. thanks for the support - weve always tried to be as genuine as we can and as transparent in what we do and say, with us what you see is what you get - but sometimes the nice bloke always gets trodden on:sneaky2: all the best nat. joy
  21. result - he was taken the images off
  22. so your the cheeky devil that stole our web images are you baz, as putting two and two together firewoodsales shropshire, barry grieg? got a big barn etc web site sales at £120 m3nationwide - good way to start rubbing people up the wrong way - a very peeved Mrs R M Yeomans
  23. dont worry charlie, im sure we'll get into nicks at sometime - but i know it is frustrating see you saturday mate:thumbup1:
  24. do you mean me steve? as that is our tractor and i took that pic,thats my pic in our avatar - only ever use our own pics for every bit of promo material:confused1:
  25. will do in future, but the image is of rohan cutting wood on our home page, and i think putting a watermark across it would make the web page messy ii have emailed them firmly, but politely asking them to take it off their website and theyve sent me back a really snotty email asking me all sorts of questions as to why i think they cant use it:sneaky2:
