  1. There is additional grant payment of £5.82for stakes and binders. It doesn't cover it but it helps. Plus should the grant be 100% or should the landowner actually have to pay something . Anyway that's a whole new topic
  2. Good morning, just having breakfast then off to sit on a digger followed by housework! I might stay on the digger longer.........

    Hilux lane assist

    yep 100%. even dude at toyota admitted it was a safety feature that wasn’t safe
  4. Hello. I have a new single cab hilux, great truck but the lane assist is driving me nuts. If I swerve round pot hole or on narrow bit of road it pulls truck back in if I don't indicate. I know I can turn it off every time I start it but does anyone know a way way to turn it off completely or have as an option (great on motorway but not towing 3.5t on Oxfordshire crap roads). Be nice to turn of the beeping every time the speed limit changes too
  5. If you look up North Somerset or Westmorland style I took inspiration from that. Stakes are trimmed to just under the brash. Not a 'pretty' as bound hedge but decent functional hedge Hedgelaying Styles – National Hedgelaying Society WWW.HEDGELAYING.ORG.UK IMG_4490.mov
  6. Can you put up photo? We are say £18-30/m depending on size etc. Aiming for 2-2.5 stakes and binders a meter and you are looking at 6-8 quid in materials alone!
  7. Nice looking hedge to lay and your cuts look good. While we normally do South of England or Midland we have also laid similar using minimal stakes and no binders. Using a stake every 2m(ish) and on alternating sides. Use stakes to hold brash and the odd preacher round the outside if stake to 'lock in'. If that makes sense?

    4motion vw transporter with low box and 7000 train weight would do it for me

    Again if there was a 4x4 van that towed 3500kg I'd buy it but pickup is the only affordable option. and I don;t own a hobbs

    I'd love a 4x4 van than tows 3500kg. Much more practical than a pick
  13. Where about are you and what is the time scale? there is a chance I will be going Wales way at some point in the next few weeks. Or try here Log into Facebook WWW.FACEBOOK.COM Log into Facebook to start sharing and connecting with your friends, family, and people you know.
  14. I'm in Oxford and have some but probally cost prohibitive to deliver
  15. We are cutting some lovely 30ish year old coppice that's in rotation. We will coppice the thorn too when we are done and leave oak standards. Great to see a local authority planting and managing hazel. IMG_4241.mov IMG_4241.mov
