  1. as it mentioned a lady fairy I thought it might be the same tree. back to the drawing board
  2. this link might shed some light on it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dule_tree scroll down to sites of previous trees
  3. link not working for me kevin
  4. there are a few lads on here on the north and east side of Leeds that do seasoned logs if that is in your location
  5. the problem with LPG conversion is the room the tank takes in the boot and is not freely available around the country if you travel afar from home base
  6. it is issued by the e/v/ agency for green waste its the lower tier and free of charge any other waste you will need the higher tier which costs, some tip sites will require you to show your licence the main problem will occur if you are stopped by the police or vosa. Pl. is not compulsory but if the sxxx hits the fan you might be glad of it and it is tax deductible
  7. you will need P L Insurance, business insurance on your vehicle(s) waste licence if you transport it away from site, insurance for your tools would be a good thing but not compulsory
  8. did you have to make good the wheel ins after?
  9. post 10 pathfinders are cheaper RFL you will get about 30-35 MPG if you pull a decent size trailer it will go down to 25 MPG they are quite a big buss and 7 seats but you will not get one on your budget. kier and Hyundai are ok worth a look at I had a H terracan for 5 years with not too much problems but they do not make them any more
  10. I will not be attending a parade but I have had a 2 minutes silence today (Saturday) and a 1 minutes silence Sunday. but at the end of the day it was the government of the day that put the lads in the firing line and they should look after them, I have lost relatives in both world wars
  11. and a week at Easter and by the way was it you driving your landy a few Fridays ago trying to get round the roundabout at Wetherby and having to mount the path as to lack of lock on the steering
  12. it all looks spick and span and you must have time to sit down with the chairs
  13. I have used stock fencing stapled onto a pallet before now when the shed is full it works ok
  14. anyone replacing or buying new ladders the standards are changing next year, https://ladderassociation.org.uk/en131/ may be worth reading to cover your health and safety obligations

  15. you do not prune plum trees in winter its a summer job
  16. I have just looked into your persona ! maybe they do not like driving a landy. as Marula says its difficult getting the right staff the young lads just want to play on there x box or I phones now and again you come across one that has work ethics in them but need a fair bit of training even to do the basics but if they are willing and reliable you are half way there
  17. 8ft off the top 4-6 inches off the sides and try and shape it in at the top. but it looks like it has a problem already with dead bits on the side
  18. in a word no
  19. all fruit trees need pruning every year to keep them in good shape and keep them productive
  20. send them to a cub or scout pack they will learn loads of knots and first aid
  21. you have to click on skip the adds
  22. if its on a public foot path the council will tell you to cut it back to clear it or they will do it and charge you
  23. it might only be 1.5m high but it could have been 25 ft. high 15 years ago and have a base 18" diameter you have to look at a job before you can price you might be dragging brash 200 yds. to get it to the truck and 2 days getting the roots out
  24. good result it would be nice if a tree came down onto his house
  25. have you tried a new plug as sometimes you get a spark when checking but when under compression dos not work
