  4. come back tony/hama you views are respected regardless of what some think. I noticed you been quiet lately. I just presumed you been busy like the rest of us. Regards Andy
  5. yes had a small 13hp pedestrian one on site yesterday much easier to use with better control with its turntable design than rigid ones. pm me if you need more info.
  6. Last week when we arrived on a site there was a big dog roaming all over when i asked its owner to get it out of the way he says "oh that is Danny he wont get in the way but if you kill him you got to dig a big hole!" deadly serious No dogs were harmed that day.
  7. it will run probably but will raise the engine temp a little and down 10% on power. long term it may damage the seals in the fuel pump. If you do go down this route may i suggest you add 2.5 litres of cheap engine oil per 25 litres of kerosene. It will help with the above issues.
  8. My few penneth. I never believed in ghosts although i did see something as a kid vaguely but others present at the time were convinced it was and still are, I am 35 now. This was until i got married 5 years ago at a place called Branston hall near Lincoln. The wedding went fine until late afternoon when we were in the main hall drinking coffee an old lady dressed in white robes appeared and sort of glided/slid straight across the room and through a solid wall. I thought at first i was imagining things but 6 or 7 others, mainly older folk were just staring at same spot she went through looking in disbelief. We stayed 3 nights in the honeymoon suite and heard further strange unexplainable things throughout. Then we started getting wedding pics posted and emailed by friends. Nearly all contain orbs. Some from different cameras showing same ones in different positions, some with up to 15 in one pic, some with different forms also and the best one was outside the wedding room window on the first pics, then half inside the window and half out, then between window and curtain, then in the room. also noticed they are attracted to children, its the energy i presume. Also have some pics outdoors shortly after with one above my son in the garden. I mentioned it to the staff and they go very quiet as it happens often. The building is very old and has been used as a mental hospital in the past. Doesnt bother me at all, i found it all very interesting really.
  9. i had problems with the dpf filter on a lexux is220d Lexus wanted £1800 for new filter 50/50 parts and labour I said no way i will sort it out myself elsewhere Then lexus say there is a modification we can do whereby we put a bigger pipe onto the side of the filter for £280., That was about 40K ago, thankfully no problems since.
  10. you could try welmac engineering for tub grinders on 01400272475
  11. What planet you on?
  12. agreed. the previous cuts are all rough and at 70 degree angles in varying directions but its a commercial job round some potato stores. must be 4k ish though, then 2 other smaller jobs to price on same site.
  13. oh and mike hunt
  14. phil mckracken
  15. got a row of connies to put a price on by morning. guess about 500m, been topped before and on average 20 to 30ft to come off.i usually know exactly how long it will take us. but not sure on this one. Thinking 7-8 days. I hope not but it may just be joining this thread.
  16. global recycling in newark 01636 594360
  17. Had very similar experience to this, i tend to ask for list of tpo or other restrictions at a specific address. i will not be mentioning specific trees again.
  18. horrid device but a niftylift might do it if good access. A plant or jacksons hire
  19. I use 660 with 25" bar for most things and maybe 5 times a year have to put 36" bar on for big fell and to ring the first few sections, by then i cant wait to put the 25" bar back on. Any saw with 36 bar is very heavy on the user.
  20. I have chippings regular but just looked on sat nav and you are 40miles away. I also have a little heap. If you can collect you can have for free but i do not have a loader and anything already on the back of the truck is conifer at moment. Regards Andy

  23. my 346's have been wet and lived to tell the tale...
  24. mine just come back on!! after about 16 hours.
  25. i did one recently that i had checked with LA, definately no tpo or CA at the address but stated there is a tpo next door. Half way through job (deadwood and 15% reduction at most) we removed a fence panel and realised there were no trees at all next door. The tree was a superb large over mature oak. How do i stand legally? could it come back to haunt me? we finished the job, got paid and went home.
