  1. Am i the only one who's looked at one, held one. Put it down and left shop? I did like it for weight. Just seemd to fragile to me. Too much plastic. Looked like something that youd buy and would last 8-12 months only... also handle felt like there was less plastic/strength in it than the 201t. Dont get me wrong, i may get one at some point... have done a few cherry reductions lately that it would have been handy on... im giving it abit longer sat on the fence

  14. And as employed i dont see why you shouldnt be able to put it down as training. As you need him to drive to collect supplies etc...
  15. Multi vehicle policy. Business use and son as a named driver
  16. So without capital your knackered and need finance on newer truck.... so say extra 300-350 a month you didnt want! Dont know what works like down there or wages etc so cant comment as to weather the extra a month would hinder you or not... hmmm pain.
  17. Lez sounds a pain in the arse and something else to cripple you when you try to start up:thumbdown:
  18. This was from the other day, did a slight reduction/re shape and draw back from the drive to this oak, this has previously been butchered a while back weird shape to the tree (from another angle) but did the best with what we had and tried not to remove too much foliage bearing material. Also mulched the bed You can see in 2nd pic the membrane held down with tiles.
