  1. Looking good, strut on gate wrong way round, that's the way for steel gates.
  2. Not bad price if that includes travelling from droitwich.
  3. Agree with all David says, get it out that pot and into the ground with plenty of organic matter as a mulch, not round the trunk and plenty of watering until well established, might be worth putting watering tube. Where about's are you as the ground looks dry and impoverished and its been very dry and not recently.
  4. Unless your using heavy water, but personally I would not be drinking it.
  5. Don't want to void the warranty, no pun intended.
  6. It would be rude to refuse it, only time been offered money by the government (I know we will be paying for it later)
  7. Wont need to work this yr then...…..
  8. No unless in conservation area (need to notify council of your intention to carry out works) or it has a tree preservation order on it, which I very much doubt. Only other is if there were any planning conditions applying to property, would show on your deeds.
  9. That will be the one near Dufftown then
  10. Contract is priced per site, so the more you do the more you earn, 570 sites, 225 mile radius from home, 2 visits per site for small ones, 3 on the large ones . Some small sites and some 2-3 Acres, so invested in a range of nozzles and booms to be efficient, 4 nozzle booms the way to go for large areas, low drift bubble jet nozzles to reduce drift in breezy conditions. Long days to make that money plus take off accommodation travelling and chem costs. Plus allow for the f... factor from the pen pushers I contract to.
  11. Have 2 CP 15 Classics here, not the most comfortable in comparison to Berthoud, but wont change until they break. They are about 15 yrs old. Do about 50-60 days spraying a year and bring in about 35-40K of work.
  12. Hope you have a good back, as they will cripple you if used for long periods, handy piece of mind.
  13. Like fur coat and no knickers?
  14. Where are you, then someone will give a local recommendation or send to @spudulike
  15. Funny that when I had house in Suffolk, the wall and soles plates along with multiple studs, were all replaced with green oak, much easier to work with
  16. Thanks Stephen, sent to client, hopefully keep them quiet for a whilst......
  17. I have been asked by one of our customers to provide a risk assessment for covid 19, does anyone I have one I could beg borrow or steal. Items they want covered are :- 1. The action employees take should they or one of their own household members has Covid-19 symptoms or are have been diagnosed with Covid19. 2. The Social Distancing rules employees are to follow. 3. The hygiene precautions employees are to follow. 4. What PPE the employees are to be provided with and when they should use it. 5. Details of the training that has been given to employees.
  18. Rob, will sell an adaptor to fit large mount to medium mount.
  19. Best man to speak to is Rob at chainsawbars.co.uk. @Rob D
  20. I take you have changed the sprocket from 3/8 to 404 to suit?
  21. They will have a torque setting, but I have never checked them. @Timberwolf Official
  22. Also check the holders the blades bolt to are tight as IIRC they are bolted to the flywheel. Did you clean the seats the blades sit in before fitting the new ones and what torque setting as I think its 45ft/Lb. As mick said spinning flywheel with belts will show up any failing bearing or fouling on anvil. I cant remember what clearance there should be btw blade and anvil, off the top of my head its something like 3-4mm.
  23. Loads of threads on here about the subject, mainly dependant on location and what you bring to the party. £100-200.

    Fair enough.
