  1. Stops you burning your fingers on a hot engine too.
  2. Garden hose does the same job.
  3. Exactly! I myself have decided not to grow a beard, rather like I have done for the last 44 years.
  4. Alder, maybe, but looks a bit big.
  5. Rather than brashing all over the stool, which may encourage dormice who will damage the new growth, you should be brashing around the stool to prevent deer reaching the new buds etc.
  6. Fortunately there are no end of ambulance chasing lawyers to help them see the error of their ways.
  7. Ah, there's the good old Arbtalk community spirit.
  8. China makes stuff to a price. If you want them to make a decent one, they can do it. If you want junk, they will make that as well.
  9. Best place today, mate. I've got a couple of errands to run then it's home with the kettle on.
  10. Lucky you. I'm home today but on a nice slope tomorrow. Hopefully it won't be too skiddy.
  11. Don't go getting ideas.
  12. Light crap that isn't settling over in Maldon. I'm guessing you are more inland.
  13. They also look at the pattern of work. If somebody works for you the same days every week then they are a part-time employee as far as HMRC are concerned.
  14. Should be collecting this at the weekend.
  15. AFAIK, they teach Danish Pie rather than Split Level now on the course.
  16. Getting mixed up with your Penn multipliers.
  17. I'll have to nip down to Thundersley to pick it up first.
  18. I can do that for you, but you will also have to wait until summer.
  19. More of the real workers ie the groundies.
  20. I've got some spare days in the diary for the next few weeks which I need to fill. I hold CS30 & 31, EFAW and a clean, pre-97 driving licence. I have my own saws, light rigging gear etc and have 5 years experience of the various aspects of our business. I am as happy planting as I am cutting and I get on with the job without needing to be chased. I fit easily into teams and am good with difficult customers and members of the public. If you need an extra body for bigger jobs, pm me or call on 07739 556764.
  21. Snow and ice are 2 different surfaces. Ice needs sticky tyres but snow needs chunkier treads like mud.
  22. I don't have the first saw I had (little Husky 236) but my other half's dad has it so it's still in the family.
