  1. have you been working in falmouth this week dave?
  2. ohhh tasty,,, another alternative would be a 101?
  3. thoughts are with you and yours,,, will tip a glass to your mum this evening,,
  4. i like greenmechs too,,, anyway tom,, you're supposed to be up here with me,
  5. you're loving my Tyrollean sallopettes now aren't ya...
  6. the owner had "some" work carried out last year,,, the outfit that did it got half way up and bottled the rest (the tree moves about a bit in the wind) the owner has not been to see the work,,, he has told the neighbour through the letting agent that if they want work done they are more than welcome to pay for it,, the owner is a lazy good-for-nothing... just trying to get out of it,, we're not going behind backs to do the job,, we have permission to do it,, and the planning applications etc to go with it..
  7. sorry fella you missed my point,,, the customer is already buying his logs,,,, why should he make a lower margin selling his customers a product someone else charges him for?? and i was meaning the supplier hiking prices on him,, not the end customer,,,
  8. funny this comes up today,,, so, tomorrows job is a montery pine that is TPO'd,, the neighbors have been subjected to falling branches etc for over a year,,, they applied to have work done to the tree to rectify the problem so the TO comes out,, looks at the tree and recomends it be removed as it is in decline anyway,, the house was built on the root plate and at some point it will flatten one of 3 houses.. we informed the owner,,, he doesn't give a monkeys,,, we've also informed the letting agency he is using to let the house out so technically they are all aware of the issue with the tree.. if the tree comes down then the insurance will not pay out as the owner is fully aware of the tree but chooses to do nothing,, the LA are fully aware,, but they are not doing anything,, so tomorrow's job is sorting out the immediate danger of falling deadwood and branches so that at least the familly can use the garden.. at the neighbours expense,,,,
  9. which side of your brain does the spelling batiarb?
  10. WOW,,, a log that takes 18 months to burn... can you send me one please,,,
  11. the other questions i'd be is asking myself are... 1. If customers like burning these am i going to loose customers to these bricks,,, 2. Once a customer is converted to "bricks" the supplier can hold you to ransom and is free to push prices up when he so pleases. 3. If they are so good,, how come the supplier is not marketing/ selling them him/ herself?

    Jokes???

    Two prawns, one named David and one named Christian, are complaining about the constant threat of sharks in the sea near their homes. All of a sudden, a mysterious codfish swims their way and promises to gr...ant the boys one wish. Christian isn't too sure about the mysterious codfish and tells David he thinks the character seems a bit fishy (!). David, meanwhile, seizes the opportunity to have one wish granted. He thinks for a moment, then tells the mysterious codfish that he would like to be turned into a shark so that he would no longer have to live in fear. Straight away, the mysterious codfish grants David's wish and swiftly swims off into the darkness. Christian takes one look at his friend's new appearance, and he too swims off, in fear of his life. Days pass, and David soon realises he is lonely without his good friend Christian. David tries desperately to find the mysterious codfish, but to no avail. Then, just when David is about to give up his search, the mysterious codfish appears, right in front of David's eyes. David begs the great fish to change him back into his old self, explaining how he has had a miserable and lonely time as a shark. The mysterious codfish hesistates, but eventually agrees to grant David his second wish. With that, the mysterious codfish once again disappears into the darkness of the briny sea. Excited, David rushes to his friend Christian's house and knocks on the door. "Who's there?" calls Christian from inside. "It's me, David!" comes the reply, "I've been changed back into my old self!" "I don't believe you - you're just here to eat me!" cries Christian again. "No, you don't understand", pleads David, "I've found Cod... I'm a prawn again, Christian!"
