    Yes. Standard red key one. You can get one that goes nicely onto the battery terminal so it's under the bonnet. It's not essential but safer and stops anyone being able to plug anything else in and wear your battery out.

    This is exactly what I have on my L200. Cables running to rear anderson plug via an isolator switch. Anderson plug on a cable running to tt85 tipper. Works great.

    My wife got pick pocketed a while ago in London. They took the cards and cash but put her purse in a post box so it got back to her. Not sure I call them a courteous thief but they could just binned it.

    This does sound crazy. If you are reducing a tree on a boundary for example why could possibly need it? If it's outside of school hours it's even crazier. If the client is happy to foot the bill and a bit of administration time then fair enough but if not I'd not bother.

    I saw this. 221hp, auto, cruise control. Sounds like a great tow'er in the making.

    I think this could be interpretted/mis-interpretted as buying items through business that are actually intended for personal use. As i said, I'd be cautious of saying this to your insurer. It's not an insinuation on my behalf.

    I'd be cautious, you are essentially telling your insurer you are committing tax fraud.

    Hard to give your money away sometimes isn't it! I used arborisk who put me generally on Aviva policies. Not always the cheapest but you get a reply to emails on the same day and when I've had to make a claim it was swift and straightforward.

    I have heard good things about NFU but my experience is its hit and miss depending on your local office. My one is a 'miss' unfortunately and couldn't even be bothered to come back to me despite chasing.

    Which involves them actually looking for them too.... Unfortunately you don't get a lot dedicated to this. Crime reference number and a visit if you are lucky.

    I'd look at it geographically. If you were 100 miles from me I'd consider you less of a conpetititor and use you. If you were in the same town or in the same 'catchment' I could see why people might be uneasy about it.

    True - the paperwork would need to be detailed and cover many eventualities.

    My experience with farmers is they will never sell. The only way you get the land is one dies and the family sell it off.

    I thinks it been discussed before - group purchase. 5 people buy 100 acres between them. Get the agreement in writing and solicitor approved and could see it working - I'd do it

    Small woodlands command ridiculous prices. I've seen £100k for 5 acres in the south east. As TWIG mentioned you need volume to get the price down. 20 acres seems to be when the price acres begins to drop then substantially from 100 acres plus.

    You can rip them all off as a csv file as well and open then in excel. Really easy then as it's laid as who sent you it, dates and the message. Can do them all in one hit.

    Imagine hitting a bump at 60 and this happening.

    Do you think the woodland aspect was a big factor here? Ie if it was a 30 acres (traditional) small holding it might have been easier?

    It is something I have been thinking about but I think you need to have your 'ducks in a row' before you go down that route. When you mention trading history, what do you consider young? I am hoping 5 years of accounts would see you well in this scenario.

    I'm far from an expert but I had look at some literature and it suggested you could get planning for a built house/ag conversion if you had an occupational need to be on the land. To prove that, the land needed to be of a size that could provide an average income, you derived your main income from it, you couldn't necessary afford to live locally, your occupation required you to be there for the majority of the working day and week and a few other conditions.
  23. richy_B
    With these types of arrangements- is it a way of getting a dwelling on a site than is too small to go down the agricultural occupancy route?
  24. richy_B
    The epitome of a sinking feeling. Looks like it was soft so kept the speed up and hoped! We've all been there!

    Compared to the low 20s I get in the l200 it's very impressive.
