don't be silly, your freedom lets you post a vid, my freedom lets me get annoyed by the sound of someones voice haha, what a boring world it would be if we all thought the same way

nope, its a flatbed and the trailer was downhill of the tree. it landed with a good crash but the trailer is fine, very thin hinge as there was some backweight and we pulled it over with a tugline by hand. couldn't have gone much sweeter, rolled the log off the side of the trailer back at the yard:001_cool: i did wonder if it was a good idea but well...haha

thats very versatile, alas i'd need a bigger shed as i'd want all the attachments:thumbup1: can't help thinking 'jack of all trades - master of none' but would be a very handy bit of kit:001_smile:

With the time you've saved you'll soon be able to afford a new trailer...

time? think of the fuel..! big saws drink it

bet he wished he hadn't stopped that pratt. what an annoying idiot, yes i would enjoy to see him hurt. i hope never to meet anyone with that cocky jumped-up attitude. copper should have arrested him and stomped his camera!

or when the road is empty, or you just feel like melting the idiot in front, mine are mounted at 6inch above the parcelshelf on hatchbacks, if i was to tailgate someone i could blind them with their own mirror:thumbup:

stuntfelled an elm butt into the trailer today, found a mattress to protect(ish) the ifor a bit. it was 10ft long by approx 3ft, the weighbridge confirmed it was a 1.9tonne lump, pics to follow when i get them through on email from my bro:thumbup: much easier than ringing it all up and lifting it manually

nice, more lights is always better! don't forget you shouldn't use them on public highway as they are higher than 1.2m above the road.

never been hurt by lighting fires but had a dustbin size incinerator with a chimney lid, it went out so poured in the petrol and poked a match in a hole near the base, the lid shot up in the sky.. so much fun i did it again:thumbup: get well soon feller

prefarably when all the berries have been eaten, boy theyre messy!

but delicious:eating:

what colour is it kev?

in the dormant season is best to avoid bleeding, they shouldn't need much just deadwooding etc. its a bit late now. Ed

Has anyone else started checking their pocket shrapnel for date-less 20p pieces since they read this post ? I remember when it was originally in the news but I had forgotten about it until now.

yeah just checked, found a damp tenner wrapped round my phone, a fist full of sawdust and fluff and two dated 20p's edit.. and a seriously worn bank card that has taken a right beating even though its quite new

ed ill give you the coin and 500 quid for your dumpy ?

your shabby bid of £500.20 falls a bit short matey:laugh1:

My wifey loves mine i think it must remind her of when we started courting i used to pick her up in my old 90, she used to have to whack the hand brake drum with a lump hammer through the middle seat to take the hand brake off:lol:

just backing up a foot works too:thumbup:

i heard 20'' dia 12' long weighed 1 tonne i have a lump of scotts prine 28'' in dia and 5' long and it half a tonne

oi hands off my twigs:thumbup:

i'll take it instead of that £20 you owe me,

In an arterial bleed scenario you might have as little as 3 minutes before you injury renders you unable to help yourself leaving you in serious trouble, a couple more minutes and your troubles would be over.

 

If you are bleeding get yourself down ASAP, you don’t have time to wait for a rescue. Make sure your climbing line is always free to run, you don’t have time to arse about untangling brash and if it’s trapped under a log you could be passed out before it’s freed off.

 

One way to ensure the speedy recovery of an injured climber is for the climbers anchor point to be via a pulley or biner tied off at ground level. Anyone on the ground can then lower the climber and the entire climbing system out of the tree.

would that be one wrap or two? gloves don't come cheap you know:001_smile:

I get snotty and sneezy when I wake up on a morning and it usually clears up by mid morning. I wonder why just in the morning?

allergy to dustmites in bedroom?

What's a landi fir?

landy with pubic hair on its muttnutts:thumbup:

Greenland??

sounds good,

does anyone know of any countries that don't get pollen from end of may for two months? also does anyone know of any tree work in these countries?

yea big time, it started about 6yrs ago and kept getting worse with grass pollen, if someone starts mowing in the next garden in summer i just go home. not too bad lastyear as i started taking benadryl plus about now and doing the nasal spray twice a day, it still gets so bad i feel like migrating for the season, people who don't have it don't realise how disabling it is, can't breathe, see, itchy eyes and nose and of course sneezing.

two days ago i saw a bunch of teens throwing a line of cones over a wall, i was rushing or the scrotes would have gone over too

i hate eye scratches, i got a splinter inside my top right eyelid, it was the exact second the pic in my avatar was taken chogging down a wee pear. i got a bit of sawdust in last month and like an idiot rubbed it and made it worse:thumbdown:
