  1. I know of a similar size coni hedge 8 years ago cost £400 but that was taking the cuttings away
  2. just guessing vine weavel a photo is a must
  3. look like the lower branch has been cut back on your side of the boundary did you give them permission to clime the tree also it depends on your relationship with your neighbour in the end its done and not too bad a job by the looks
  4. watched the first episode to see if the BBC had replaced him after the petition he just talks a load of bull and dose not seem to be enthusiastic and its more of the presenters than wild life also it seems a bit late starting as the birds round hear are on the second brood now and the cookoos have gone home, I wonder if he will say anything about the badger cull that's coming up
  5. it might be this one https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2280764/Farmer-told-MUST-pull-castle-built-secretly-haystacks-loses-year-planning-row.html
  6. even school kids have to walk up to 2 miles to school unless they buy a buss pass
  7. Hayter is now owned by Toro the Viking range is getting rebranded as stihl they are good at picking up but the reliability was not good but they brought out a pro range that was better. Kazz used to make mowers for Honda the flavour of the month is weibang but they are quite heavy but do get a lot of praise

  12. yes but I did not pay that sort of price, but they do hold there money if you want to sell it later
  13. I had the Youngman its the best industrial one going I bought it refurbished from a firm in Bradford for not much more than Zarges Tubesca 7 are advertising for they are mainly DIY also it did not state the SWL of it has to be 150 kg in my previous life I was a fully qualified scaffolder and came across quite a few different makes but the Youngman was the best and easiest to erect
  14. owned by the NT they are not managing it properly where are the fire brakes. same as likely moor owned by Bradford council revoked the shooting license at the end of last season and have not touched it since, before the keepers did the moor management
  15. if you are only cutting it 2/3 times each season it could be 2 ft. high when you cut it, get a local farmer in to cut it if there is tractor access it will be a lot cheaper than spending 5k on a mower that will struggle to do the job
  16. a old wood turner I know uses wax to seal the ends of his green stock when he gets it
  17. its only 11.75 inch 3 because you pay for the timber that is lost in the saw cut but its not what you ordered
  18. how did you control boat traffic
  19. I bet they were espaliered originally along the wall it needs a lot of work to get it back the next tree looks like it has fallen over due to too much top growth many years ago look like total neglect for about 5 years then not much tlc before that

  23. when global warming is mentioned nothing is said about the rockets and bombs that are used in the wars/conflicts the last figures that I have seen said the uk produce 1% of the global greenhouse gas so if we got to 0% it would not make any difference dos any one have figures of how much co2 is produced to manufacture wind turbines/solar panels from scratch to producing electric into the grid (witch will need replacing after about 20 years) also read a article today about the rise of the electric car saying because of the loss of the fuel duty etc road tolls will be introduced and will cost the average driver £700 per year
  24. was this for the town council, canal and river trust or the E/A.it was on the local radio last week stated the T/C got contractors in to clear the flotsam from the arches near the bank and were complaining that they did not get the flood warning till late morning where the river peeked about 4am. the water level came up to about 2ft below the top of the arches
