I dont theink the battery would last that event..... I could do it in the bear suit? might make it bearable Could we not just have a bucket and try and drop logs into circles from 70ft...... Gives you an excuse to get more woodland creatures (chalky said how much he loved them)

<p>Hi Tom,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I had a quick ask around but will see more people on saturday, theres a bit of freelance work around the area but were just in the slow period here so work will build back up in the area in june (every year it does this). Do you know where you are willing to travle (distance) and where are you based, i.e you live in south suffolk and i put you onto someone in north norfolk. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sorry for the waffle</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Kind regards</p>

I was hoping the MEWP thing was only added last year because of all the rain stopping the felling?? Not be horrible but it was rather dull and very boring and in my honest opinion a bit of a drain as well a lot of people got pretty much the same times. Just my feeling towards that even.

Could you not drop the phoneline? its only 3 connectors, take a pic and wire the same back up? just a cheaper thought.

That beech hitting the water is awesome! -
Hi dave, it could be something as simple as defragmenting your computer, although if the files are as big as the gopro you need some memory to allow background tasks to work. I need to add more space to mine as i have 490gb of tree work related footage. I know, i know im a loser Sometime downloading a free compressor file can sort these problems, i compress everything from 1080p to 720p for youtube as it can only really cope with 720p and you only need higher if you using a projector or a huge ass flat screen tv. Hope this helps or gives some ideas, oh also clear you internet cache as this takes some background tasks space which could free up the glitches

Dmc, Question about your avatar can you explain the splice into the connection point? Cheers Ian

I think if im making a video and going to the effort of making it, why not, the general public might even respect our job is not gardening and cutting grass but skillful and well cool.
