permited development for forestry building
bythamboy replied to roglog's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
I thought that so long as you have a cph no ( holding no ) and the plot is atleast 12.5 acres ( 5 ha) and for agricultural/ forestry purposes excluding livestock housing and 25m ( 80ft ) from road or neighbouring residential then a simple agricultural determination application form ( 6 wks to reply ). dont expect to getchange of use though at later date for house ! Most steel frame building erectors / manufacturers will handle the application for a fee or advise . -

It isn't only generators, the car industry we're told is doing well here , but its all owned by johnny foreigners , as are the power generators , premier league football clubs , A neighbour of mine always use to say the best friend of british farmers was a german U-boat it made the government realise that home production was needed , infact essential , just wait till the next disaster to reduce oil production in some far away place and watch the price rocket .!

we need more people and politicians to say what they mean ,STOP being PC I'm fed up with politicians speaking to get elected most of us want to be outrageous but are too scared to voice our opinions . This country has drifted into the cess pit because of apathy . anyway there's nothing like a bit of colour or a gaff to brighten the day . Civil seravants still waiting for them to reply to tree works in conservation area application it cots me money to wait wouldn't mind if they did their job properly My tax pays them to anoy me .Whoops cat and pigeons .

Abolition of the small trailer exemption Dec 4th 2011
bythamboy replied to Niceboy's topic in General chat
an observation about VOSA are they not a private company now that are paid by HMG to enforce the vehicle construction and use regs . ( catch people and help pay of the national debt ) if they don't stop drivers then they don't get paid .Are they paid to educate drivers and send them on their way with advice or persecute ( sorry I mean prosecute ) . When farmers go to livestock markets they regularly attend along with customs and excise, trading standards and animal health. You now need a certificate of competence to transport animals over a certain distance .You might however target your politicians in Brussels , the biggest gravy train ever , and job creation scheme . -
yes level 4 at syston I put down that oak and walnut are good re codit due to having high levels of tannins and sugar maple also good as big sap producer. poor codit examples poplar and willow but not sure why fast growing / piffy wood ?

I asked the accountants last week about having two businesses to avoid the VAT , the reply was business one sole trader and VAT registered. business two canot be sole trader, but could be a partnership ( silent / wife ) but then there would be two sets of accounts to pay for any gain ?
-
To vat register or not ? surely if your sales to non vat registered businesses or public are greater than any vat -able purchases then its a no brainer keep away from being a tax collecter ( at your expense ) I know big things like chippers are bad news with 20% , but surely the gross price is income tax deductable. We're farmers ,and vat registered but most sales of food are zero rated , the arb work is done part time 2/3 days per week and I have to swallow the VAT because the farm side can't aford to de-register

thanks for your efforts , of to another show in cheshire this weekend
-
My tractors are insured with NFU for agric and forestry then arb work in addition but they don't like timber haulage , unless it has come of your own land ,because others tend to loose it on the high way with expensive results

bythamboy replied to gensetsteve's topic in General chat
some people think sitting at a key board / forum is sad , but Xfactor could signal the end of civilisation . Eastenders has me looking for that short bit of rope . -
He possibly means number from VIN / chassis plate , if thats missing then could mean its been removed by some one who may have knicked it , look for area where paint is a bit brighter with four holes , where rivets were !
