    Well said Ad. Watched the races yesterday and was shocked at why the official didn't stop the race. THE worst crash I have ever seen.
  4. Hi, I sent you a PM a while ago and haven't heard anything??? Is this job op still available. Ta
  5. I do like the use of the chain brake, work position around the base of the tree, eye protection oh and those new chainsaw protection trainers! Mind you, they do come in handy when a swift exit is needed for dealing with a hung up tree!
  6. HELLFIRE!! Thought my pal could lift alot 300kg deadlift but that was amazing.
  7. Worn my hiflex flat out for 6 months and they're great . My buddy just bought stretch airs and on the 2nd day of wearing them (groundying) the zip stiching came undone. Make your own mind up!!!

    QUOTE=dangerous brian;336263]Mabe they can get spies a good ride hes good enough to get amongst them. I agree that Lorenzo is going to be the future but I'm sure people like Spies and Dovi can challenge him with the right bike. There's no doubt that he is the next Rossi but I wish he would calm his celebrations down a touch, you never saw Rossi jump into a lake in full race gear!!!

    I cant wait either pal. Finally going to knock the up himself Lorenzo off his perch!!
  11. The LA have said it's got to be done by the end of the month, I can see this dragging on until after that! My client is really not happy about removing it but he even thinks that a reduction might be a waste of time and money - to him of course not me!!
  12. Good man, great feeling isn't it!
  13. The Daldina are on the lower branches (15feet roughly). I would like to try and keep the tree as would the owner, but as it is so close to the road I am tempted to remove it. That road is on a bank that wagons come down and would struggle to stop if there was an unknown obstruction in the road. Its good to see a range of opinions on here but as said above the LA have suggested a reduction not a removal:confused1:
  14. Thanks for the replies guys, great help!
  15. The customer doesn't really want to fell as he is into his old tree's. Will suggest a reduction and ivy removal and see what he says. So the Cramp Balls won't cause limb failure? Only because one big one is over the road with a large number of balls on it? Thanks again.
  16. That's the thing I'm not sure so would prefer to take the weight out of it and then drop the stem into the field. I did say that it may be a waste of time reducing it due to the presence of the fungi and state of the tree.
  17. Just got back from looking at a sorry looking Ash tree that belongs to a family friend. The council have recommended a 40% reduction but have given permission to remove entirely if the owner wishes. However, as the pic's show, it doesn't look that healthy. Lots of Daldinia concentrica - Cramp balls/King Alfreds Cakes (thanks to the Fungi Directory:thumbup:) on the lower larger limbs and stem and little foliage apart from the ivy! What would you recommend?, I'm thinking removal as it's on the road side and there's a high chance of limbs failing. Also, will cones and banksmen suffice or do you think I have to request a road closure? Obviously either way I will inform the HA. Thanks.
