  1. Fasciation is very strange don't you think? haha Check out this beast i found at the top of an Ash tree!
  2. You really think so?? Wow, thanks very much mate. That's given me some more motivation to carry on and get it done! Had quite a busy few weeks recently so I haven't had much time to play with it! But thanks very much! Tell your mates! Haha!

  5. Not a bad as people planting wellingtonias in their garden & then complaining at their rate of growth and size of girth hahaa!
  6. I've had an offer to do a stump grinder ticket for £81 and i was just wondering if it would be of any use applying for another job when I have experience in using a stump grinder already. Let me know, Cheers

  11. poor tree.
  12. These lockjacks look pretty nice to climb on... I gotta get round to trying one out! Quite expensive
  13. Well, I'm not 100% sure what it is yet! Whether it's due to vibrating machinery in cold conditions or because my partner dropped a slice of sycamore on it a few weeks back... Haha, whatever caused it, its bloody annoying. It happens everyday and gives me a very uncomfortable feeling! Oh well.
  14. I'm falling to bits...
  15. Hopefully he's learnt his lesson! If not, he shall once he's severed a limb! It does seem to be the groundsmens fault, am I not correct??
  16. Groundsmen eyy! [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzhsZL1ONzM&feature=related]YouTube - Near Death Tree Cutting Experience[/ame]
  17. Nice work mate! I fancy going on a splicing course... Could you point me in the right direction? Also, would you mind telling me the cost? Haha! Cheers
  18. Hmmm! I'm hoping it's the ivy, I really am! Pines are beautiful trees, they're not the best to climb but I wouldn't like it if I had to stay away from them forever! Haha I've heard that cream is good, I shall ask the doctor when I see her next. Cheers for the good luck haha
  19. Hahahaha. Cork oak & Holly?? How on earth can he get those mixed up with a sweet chestnut, they are nothing alike!! Even using a tree ident book.
  20. Oo, that sounds good Jarnii! Banbury isn't far! How much are you looking for then? Give me a rough figure! Haha

  23. It's terrible! Booked an allergy test for next week so I shall see what happens! The pines I was working on were also covered in ivy so i suppose it could be that! I've been off work for a short while now and iv cleaned absolutely everything & I'm staying away from anything of mine which has come in contact with any trees... I've cleaned the bed sheets and obviously wearing clean clothes every day & I'm still having the reaction... so now I have no idea what it is! It's really starting to get on my nerves. Hopefully going for a good climb tomorrow though, try out the new butterfly harness on this lovely big beech I've spotted haha. If anyone could give me any advise about allergic reactions it would be much appreciated.
