  1. all my bad ones i cut a thin disk and hide quickly..
  2. any distance, £1 per mile one way if its not in my town..
  3. how ya supposed to fit anything in the back with that big numb cage? not to mention increased chance of a rollover due to higher centre of gravity, nice motor but remove cage, heighten tow hitch, add swamp tyres and mud..
  4. watched half of it at midnight then fell asleep, good job it got skyplussed.. that guy with teeth missing going all extras working hard then was wrecked by mid morning then chased down the hillside by angry bees was well funny.
  5. sounds like they really wanted it.. was it a nice one? have you got any pics you can put up?
  6. dont forget your weights, 1litre of water=1kg, and it doesn't sit still on corners like woodchip
  7. new fangled ideas eh? whats wrong with a good old wheelbarrow? stick a board in it and you have yourself a headrest:thumbup1:. this ones done me proud, someone even stole it from a jobsite once but i spotted the handles sticking over a wall and reclaimed it:thumbup:
  8. if i had my own mewp i'd have a chair in it so i could have a sit down and enjoy the view. if i dared go to the top that is..
  9. booked the telly off our lass.. just hope i remember now:thumbup:
  10. hold the bags in a stream and the logs will float into the sack.. or use a metal sheet bent to dimensions of the sack, like a U channel, then remove metal when done..
  11. the guy was gobsmacked with the bench, Andy (treequip) knocked it up in a couple of mins, the rest of that lime log is going to be used as a bridge roughly where it lays. i wanted a go on the quad but mister customer man hadnt charged the battery and it was automatic so no bumpstarting..
  12. been recommended eagle eye app for remote monitoring of my cctv. just need an ifone now..
  13. treated ourselves to a new marlow 14mm bull rope last week from jonesie, 50m for just over 100 quid, its ready for a wash already thanks to a nice greasy sycamore and lime in the rain:thumbup: well happy with it..
  14. we usually stop at a small village in west scotland for our anniversary every year, i like to take the landy way up the forbidden logging tracks to give the dogs a walk away from people.. this beauty was in the woodchip in the middle of the track.
  15. been to see the big trees 2yrs ago.. amazing, definately returning as soon as i can,
  16. i thought you were just being a lazy satnav follower till i read the directions in full and then realised there was another paragraph of them..
  17. most days it drags its owner behind it... other days it gets dragged along like a bad dog.
  18. i was driving about 20miles to do a firewood delivery today with 2.75t on the towball, laughing thinking im glad im not driving a tranny when.........yep, the revs went up and the roadspeed went down. new clutch time i think, oh well i have been waiting 3yrs for it to go..!
  19. how much chip does the disco hold? love the chipper+trailer combo
  20. good idea to have an aerial rescue ticket that incorporates relevant first aid training,
  21. haha dont delete it, we had customer hanging around all day, he helped drag brash from bottom of the tree to near the chipper, walking backwards he tripped over some brash he had dropped and in slow motion tried not to fall, all in vain he fell (fat man) and laid unhurt on his back on the wet road:laugh1:.. it was funny but only i saw it, no point to this post, i should probably delete it but since i've made this much effort i think i'll just post it anyway:thumbup:
  22. didnt get any of that vid, they were funny looking chaps though. my neighbour is from glasgow and i just nod, smile and go 'yeh haha' everytime he speaks. looks a bit like the bald chap in the vid, nice guy:thumbup:
