A cracked link presents no additional risk to the user. However, the presence of such a crack requires immediate retirement of the ZIGZAG. Really So basically dont worry if it breaks in half because it will probably maybe still hold together while your suspended above the ground in a perils situation

Small leaved lime semi mature growing roadside a fair bit of die back in the crown. Last few years has been putting out less and less leaf a "a significant amount" could this be an indicator that the tree is on its way out? Or weather/soil related just a bad year? Tree is TPO'D so need to be on the money before i submit application! id say fell and replant due to the size condition and location of said tree

Why do you prefer being self employed over employed? Days like today are great, took a hedge out for a customer and got another 3 jobs out of it, also ended up erecting a fence where the hedge once stood that looks customer made us bacon sarnies for breakfast cold sarnies for dinner loads of chocolate biscuits endless pots of tea and to top it off gave us a £30 tip for working so hard in the rain. Having a good job recognized makes it all worth while

By the time you put a hiab on a 5.5t vehicle your payload would be pap.

You don't actually have to park it at your operators centre when not in use it can be kept somewhere like a pub car park or anywhere with ample parking. you need to get it in writing from the person who owns the land were you intend to keep it that they are giving you permission to park there. They do check that you are doing what your supposed to be doing also, so parking it roadside will end in tears.

As Andy said...driveway forget it unless you own a huge house with no neighbors. I looked at ivecos but as like you said they are the same size as a transit you cant get enough in them.
-
Even if you buy the vehicle theirs no guarantee that they will grant you the licence in the short term. I found having a suitable operators centre is essential before you submit an application. problem with doing it yourself "especially if you want it asap" is if you make a mistake or miss anything out on your application it has a knock on effect and will delay it even longer.

We all know what's right and wrong if your unsure or out of your depth don't do it! Its up to the operator with the saw in his or hers hand to say hey im i putting myself in an unsafe position. No amount of training can replace good old common sense!
