  1. We love ours they are a bit underpowered but there's no rush has anyone know anyone that's had one re-mapped I know you can do it to get more power but haven't heard of peoples reviews I'm guessing a bit more power would help the clutch
  2. I think it's dangerous wearing them up a tree I had one blow in the wind and my 020 caught and the saw ran up towards my shoulder suppose the polo type are ok or the t shirts

  6. Wish I could read them texts of course rupe didn't mean that haha I think it's a perfectly good question what about this question "what is the most stupid cover up you've tried using after giving someone drunken abuse"
  7. What like two foot haha
  8. It would be mint like we can only dream mate ad15 I don't think it would matter how high they are we can all go up in a straight line and knock tops off that's all they do I'd love it no dragging brash chipping cleaning up you just smash branches down until you get to a certaian height then smash the top off I love shaping trees and all that and getting job satisfaction lookin at a nice tree but every now and then would be nice to spend a few month just smashing stuff up. Woodzie would there be buckfast involved for the night time entertainment I hope so pal
  9. Sure you'd show them how to go on mate they could make a tv series out of it bet there would be more hand bags at ten paces than in britains next model ha you know what we all like
  10. Putting dead cows on the fires when foot and mouth was about they'd been in the wagon five days bloatin up wi gasses the tractors burst them with the spikes what a smell kept spewin up good pay like
  11. I'd love it Hama mate wonder if you can go over and do it for the crack yous must of seen that poster don't his name or anything but the one of them blokes up them massive trees on the planks toppin them at 150 feet or whatever I'd love to do that
  12. Nice one chris same here just when you start worrying jobs seem to pop up at the minute I've had some funny calls too some woman askin if some bloke works for me then kickin off sayin I'm lying weirdo then someone asking if I pulled up wantin to cut his tree down the other day kept callin me bonny lad then to top it off got some lad who just left college wanting a job sorry had nothing for him but then proceeded to tell me "am proper mint though ya nar love grafting just want a couple of days a week though"
  13. Cat owners don't pick up poo cos they crap on other peoples gardens who they feed off if you wanna pet but cant be bothered to look after it properly get a cat IMO
  14. Felix my neighbour feeds his cat fresh fish everyday paid a fortune to save it when it got ran over and now only has three legs but everytime I open my door the thing comes flyin in just because I have a log burner a dog only has one owner mate
  15. Like it Stephen people believe what they are doin is for the animal but it's for themself I've only ever owned hunting dogs and I've took them hunting they are the happiest dogs in the world doin what they are born to do they weren't cruel or savage and whatever they caught I ate they ate or my hawk ate so nothing was wasted the last thing I would do to one of my dogs is make survive through medication and metal legs
  16. I'd love to go over there show them what we made of mate they get paid a fortune and complain how dangerous it is to make the show look good how's about we gan owa and we pay to do it just for a laugh
  17. People say dogs are easy to win over you got to earn a cats love I think that's bull you earn a cats love keeping it warm giving it good food dogs are not dumb maybe the breeds that are inbred cos of there strange features to produce a teddybear lookalike but my lurcher collie cross was very intelligent almost human like in her ways what makes a cat so superior in intelligence
  18. Not big enough mate ha I've not got exact height I'd say around 120 foot but I've done trees what seemed a lot bigger not as tall but very wide I'd love to have a go at those big redwoods etc you see pics of people smashing big bits off in Canada or whatever we should all get together chip in on a holiday and smash some big trees up for free just for fun and the pics
  19. Look at the timber on the back of mine she loves it
  20. I agree not keen on cats myself I think they're parasites they just go where it's warm and they get food my mate thought his cat was dead but it had just decided to move in with someone else then come back 3 month later. With regards to the bionic legs I had to let my lurcher go because her legs were failing I was devastated but I wouldn't of give her bionic legs because she would of been frustrated not bein able to do what she used to I think it could cause mental problems with the cat
  21. The liquid terminator when it gets ran owa haha
  22. I love my transit always loved them they good work horses and drive like a car IMO don't know much about the fuel problems as someone said and with the clutch problems think rupe posted on here you can get the kits to make them old style a lot cheaper. I know plenty people who swear by ivecos but they don't do the graft we do just carry a few shovels and stuff about
  23. Itl probably get out one day and run under a car like most other cats must be mental to pay that money
  24. I got a one made me laugh today a bit for on here though ha
  25. They must be massive now are they I done a little bit in their yard at Kent then I went to Stafford after that they a good company to work for had some good times there
