  1. ELG, have you any experience of the type of thieves that many of us believe we are being hit by recently? Nothing short of illegal means will stop this type of person, and even then they are pretty unstoppable. There is a group of this type of person living near me, and the whole place is a no-go zone for the police. A few years ago a dwelling caught fire and the fire engine that went to put it out was stripped of anything that wasnt attached. This is the kind of person I strongly suspect is responsible for most of the recent theft threads.

     

    :laugh1:

  2. I'll be the third if you like, then we can put it to bed and get on with the year! Some bums stole my chipper on Tuesday, which was pretty rubbish. As already mentioned, at least we've got our health and nobody got hurt!

     

    Thats right I agree, I know its shite but you've got to keep your chin up and carry on, Regards and best of luck to you both.:biggrin:

  3. Anybody else having one?

     

    1st job turned into a right pig. Poplar stump which i did about 5 yrs ago to come down. It was easy twice the size i rememberd!

     

    13 hr day in the bad weather with a touchy customer!

    Only saving grace a neighbour took a truck load of logs saving us coming back the next day and actually costing us money!

     

    2 days later i come home to find someone screw drivered the drivers lock to try and nick my little diahatsu fourtrack. only failed as the battery was flat as i havnt used it for quite a while.

     

    Typical as i am just getting it ready to sell and now got to get a new lock fitted and it damaged the lovely paint work.

     

    All this in my first week back!

     

    and i had a good feeling about this year too.

    Just hope thats your bad luck over with mate because it normally comes in threes

  4. I dont suppose anyone does any tree work for the environment agency, I,ve done plenty of work in the past for British Waterways which requires wearing a life jacket near the water but I,m lead to believe that the Environment agency requires certain competencies to 'work on or near the water'

     

    Any help on this would be much appreciated
