  2. Does anyone rate Eucalyptus ? Just pulled a load of a job and wondering if when seasond if it burns well.
  3. Am I right in thinking that Yew also gives of cyinide fumes when chipped or burnt???
  4. Picked up a Tirfor T35 before Christmas off Ebay. Ex MOD works a treat and delivered for 220 quid. Just need a strong young man to carry it about for me:biggrin:
  5. Used to take my terrier to work until I spent 3 hours trying to extract her from under the canal bank near the job where she was in pursuit of a large coypu or Ragadan as they call um here. Terrier 1 coypu 0 Buggered the day up and I got the impression that the client was no too pleased.

    Cold feet

    I bought a pair of "Porelle Drys", keep my feet toastie and should the boots start to leak a bit at the end of a day also dry. Good bit of kit and bought mine from a motorcycle dealers.
  8. Reminded me of my near neighbour farmer who opperates out of the front bucket of his loader. He does wear long trousers though so that makes it much safer.
  9. Would that inspection cover your kit if working within the EU???
  10. In a previous life we used sage accounting and payrole products. Easy to use and the revenue and VAT people liked them to. Which made our life a lot easier. Now adays I'm getting my head around French tax and payrole, its just more confusing and in a foriegn language.
  11. Well I had a phone call this morning to go and give a mate a helping hand, as the large ex comercial chiken shed he and I use to store gear and drying fire wood had taken a turn for the worse. He was not wrong:w00t: Talking to the farmers wife down the road over 20 chicken sheds have suffered the same fate, most still in use with 20 to 60 thousand birds in each unit. Kentuckey Fried Chicken anyone.
  12. Have entered said "chat room" a few times to discover that I was chattin to me self. This in its self is not umusual but thought on a forum such as this twood be unlikly. So is it that the "Chat" buttom is a bit of a red herring ?? or is that me metaphors well and trully mixed.
  13. Recently lost out on a couple of jobs as I was unable to split the logged wood ready for firewood. I work for a lot of expat clients in France. Thinking a log splitter just might give an advantage with work and was wondering if any one had prefernces I guess this would be small scale not full time firewood production. Spotted a couple of units on Ebay that looked like contenders which I guess are made in China. All points of view appreciated The smelling pisstakes are all mine
  14. Thats great I will give them a ring. Chalford is in my old neck of the woods so that is a bit of a good doo.
  15. In the country and the county next week and used to visit HighPlaces just off the M5 at junction 13 for Stroud. I'm pretty sure that they have now gone so wondering where else stocks gear ropes etc in the area. Firts post also so a general hello and happy new year all.
