  4. A very good friend of mine has just been cleaned out over the weekend in the Northampton area. the big bits of the list are a 6 inch timberwolf and more chainsaws n climbing kit than you could shake a stick at.as well as a 20,000 stump grinder the people who took this were organised they built a bridge across a 6 foot ditch to get the chipper away and dragged a tracked chipper out the way infront of it to get it out along with all the kit. they didnt use the front gate (the only access) as it is opposite a very high security home office site which would make anyone think it was secure. all the tools were locked away in a containers which they used an oxi torch to get the locks off and then took the tools and chipper, strangely they left a big gennie and a pit bike. if anyone hears anything give me a shout but in the mean time i would warn all round there to put extra security in place the lengths they went to were further than i have ever seen they must have been scoping him out for a while cheers alex
  5. As above post code is LS12 so anywhere close to their bottle of tipple to someone if they let me use thiers or know of one not sure when the job will be yet Cheers Alex
  6. Hi all as above bit of a long shot i know but does anyone know of a secure area/ lock up in the southport, merseyside area must be large enough to house my twin axle ifor and greenmech willing to pay good money for the right place any help/ contact are gratefully received. cheers alex
  7. sorry should point out that I am 21 so only have a post 97 lisence
  8. Cheers for that I was thinking the exact same as you with the FWD and the rest but now you have said that deffo worth a look
  9. Well not quite new lol going to have about £2000 to spend plus whatever i can get for my 1999 LDV tipper, just wanting your advice really I own a greenmech chipmaster 220 which i tow along and sometimes travel over 200 miles round trip with the pair to 1 day jobs so clearly the ldv which i bought for pottering about town isnt really the ideal tool. I was thinking Iveco or similar but what do you lot suggest? Also if anyone might be interested in my LDV its a 1999 model with 71000 on the clock I blew the engine up when i bought it in april but fixed that and put a new clutch in at the time its has an MOT until april next year and is taxed until November. So far since the rebuild it has been a great reliable truck running me everywhere with my chipper and loads of chip so its has proved itself as a great work horse and I will miss it but it would be more suitable for someone who isnt doing lots of motorway miles. cheers alex
  10. this is now filled thanks you for all replys
  11. Could be starting as early as Monday if you can help if not when are you free
  12. also if someone has their own quad with sprayer that would be great but not essential
  13. Hi as above need someone with a spraying ticket working off a quad for two possibly three weeks in the liverpool area contact alex 07891024418

  15. Would just like to say thanks to all whom replied got it sorted now as for the crb taking months I understand what your saying but I think this lot do look into your history!
  16. afternoon gents, Need a climber for 1 possibly 2 weeks starting on the 11th of july working in the lakes (digs provided with breakfast) hours are 7am - 3pm (to be confirmed with the client but at the present time this is the state of play) Ideally to have their own climbing and ground saw as a lot of the time climbing isn't needed. Also sorry for the personal touch but must be able to pass a CRB and a Drug n Alcohol just for the nature of the site we are going to be working at couple of other bits of info you will need so contact me via pm or ring on 07891024418. cheers and thanks for looking alex
