  1. I use the Husky ground helmet with Sordin chipper ear defenders.
  2. There was a guy called Charlie Harrison on the Arbtalk Facebook group who had a load of Yew timber he wanted to offload. I think he was up near Birmingham.
  3. I've seen an olive green husky before but never a lime green one.
  4. Thanks for the link.
  5. Can you still get actual Creosote anymore or am I doomed to using a modern alternative?
  6. I thought we could expand the subject of the thread a bit so here's my bell-end.
  7. The firm I work for had a different opinion from HR. Their view was that if it is during work hours then an employer is legitimately entitled to know where their vehicle and employee are. Outside of working hours is a different matter. Looks like it's one of those that will need testing in court before a definite decision is given. Easiest way to limit the usage is stop your employee using the vehicle outside of work.
  8. It's a particular interest of mine. I was a lead shop steward in my old trade for some years.
  9. Do you have a case citation for that? I would be interested to read the reasoning.
  10. Perfectly legal to track your employee's company vehicle in working hours. I would be more concerned about the OP's employee reading this thread.
  11. You can always create your own currency Tom, the poond.
  12. Chestnut, Lime and Poplar, all seasoned since September? Let me get my cheque book right now!
  13. In my experience, trying to make yourself understood on AOL help lines is an utter waste of time.
  14. Have you tried Stanton Hope? Failing that, you could try Dave Harris over in Rayleigh.
  15. Size 12 feet and a good fit in size 12 Oregons. I only wear them if I'm going to be standing in water all day though as they are nowhere near as comfortable as proper boots.
  16. No customer is really perfect until the cheque clears.
  17. I agree with Stevie. You have no idea of the history behind their actions. My mum and dad had a neighbour once who washed dog mess under the fence (until my dad and I sealed the gravel boards with cement and the crap ended up in his garage ), tried putting his fence over 1ft onto my parents' land and then attacked my dad with a claw hammer when my dad began to take it down. I wouldn't think they would have given him the steam of their pee, let alone logs, however crap they were.
  18. He did used to work in the shipyards before making it big so I guess that's what he means.
  19. Just to liven this part of the debate up, if either of the parties is not a member of the EC then there is no obligation on England to allow an open border to allow Scottish citizens in to work, ie no legal requirement to allow free movement of workers or goods.
  20. I've had the Kumho tyres on for 18 months and the only time I have lost grip on tarmac was going over a diesel spill which was unmarked. I've done 24,000 on them and they still look like new.
  21. So not just an elaborate excuse to Mrs L as to why you have a secret Vaseline stash?
  22. Good news, it's on AOL mail, not Arbtalk.
  23. Muntjac jiz.
  24. Pass. It just came over the top of everything but I was on Arbtalk at the time. I've got a couple of things open on Firefox at the moment though (AOL mail and Arbtalk). Sorry I can't be more help.
