    Lol the job i was doing hadn't been touched at all, no thinnings etc so it was a case of try get some down and get an area going and keep felling from there on

    I get paid 80.00 a day self employed for felling all day mixed hard and soft , cutting to size, stacking and brashing. Provided with saw and fuel..... What do people think of that? I think that it should be 10.00 per ton! and some days i should be on at least 120 a day!!!

    Sorry to hear about that!! sods This is not really relevant but: Went to scrap yard the other day and was told that as of start of june, if i did bring anything up, i'd need to provide, driving licence or passport and a utility bill, and i would be paid in a cheque. (i just take up odd bits or replaced parts etc thrown in scrap bin) He also said and laughed..... the thing is though there is one exemption.... if on you driving licence it says " fancy word " can't remember but if it says that which basically means so place of perminant address we can pay cash So basically, travellers can still be paid cash as they have no fixed address etc so i can see a rise in stuff like scrap etc and travellers being aloud to carry on there business and not pay tax brilliant system! Again sorry to here your loss Hope it was insured!
