  1. Probably to thin out the beer money men ??
  2. Your right there, Find a good dealer I had issues with my greenmech I bought second hand and the dealer loaned me a new safe trak for two weeks while mine was being fixed at no cost.
  3. Yes, They are probably preparing one of those dawn raids as we speak!
  4. It does but surely after you have been working 7 days flat out to see if it warrants the purchase you will be glad to be more efficient and cut your workload down a bit!
  5. I keep getting pulled in the landy anyway apparently it's previous owner had 'connections' of what they won't say, They don't dip the tank tho just fly up the outside hard stop me shouting get out with your hands on your head with what looks like M16s drawn. Not sure what they are searching for in the chip either??
  6. Thanks for the heads up Felix 😉
  7. We haven't sold many yet either but I am not bothered I always run out every year, As soon as it gets cold it goes mad and you will be whinging it's too busy 😊
  8. Yep the op said he does other things as well as arb Grass cutting etc... Some of the larger grounds maintenance contracts can be on a 3/5 year contract.
  9. I was told not too look back but prepare for the future! If works busy and new contracts are lined up I cannot see why you need to look at last years jobs? It may seem daunting spending your hard earned but look at it as an investment if you buy a decent Landy tipper for say 15k look after it it's probably still going to be worth at least £10k in another 5 years time all written off against tax, If it goes belly up just sell it!
  10. I run all my vehicles on red now after seeing traffic cops the guy just got a £500 fine and his van back.
  11. Would disagree with that get a good 2 tonne on my 130 with no bother ATTACH]168588[/ATTACH]
  12. I've got a mid range stihl one no complaints with it.
  13. I know someone who eats cold soup and macaroni cheese straight from the tin! 😁
  14. Aah da bikes are not for sale as they are my new toys after passing my bike test 4 days ago. I seem to have justified to myself that it's ok for one person to have 5 vehicles on the road, Just her indoors who doesn't agree.
  15. Let that cat sleep on your boots Jon be toasty warm in the morning mate 😊
  16. It's a good truck Jon, Done 138,000 It's Geoffs fault Jon he's got me into bikes so somethings got to go!
  17. I'm reluctantly going to be selling one of my Discovery's soon PM me if interested.
  18. Logs, Fencing, Grounds Maintenance, Snow Ploughing and Gritting, Waste Collection, Buying and selling plant & machinery.
  19. Providing they light and feed the fire no problem or exemption required if you are seen loading the fire then you must have a D7 exemption. Had a nice council official pay us a visit earlier this year whilst on a job just make sure if you register an exemption you must de-register it once the work is complete. You must not cause a nuisance with smoke if you do you could be made to put it out.
  20. Will do mate!! Best not upload the video of you wheeling up the high street you don't know who's looking 😳
