Things always carry on pretty much as they are, sooner or later they balls up one way or another, regardless of which party, things were good under labour late 90/early 20. If the conservatives take us out of Europe I think it will be their big bollock drop, I fully expect to get scorn poured on me, just my opinion.

Don't think it's arguing about the outcome of the vote as such, just venting about the party that won, in the same way their supporters are banging on with relish about their victory, the joys and woes of democracy

Yep, scapegoating the sick and unemployed, after all they did cause the recession! These arguments go round and round on here, think there are polar opposites politically on AT, rabid right wing or Trotskyist reds! Any lib dems in the house?

Yes mate, my sentiments

I'm doing fine thanks

Yeah I get that but don't you have almost the same costs just subyying? Ie insurances/rent/vehicles still need feeding regardless if your working for your self or subyying for a week

Where I'm going wrong?? It works for me and I'm happy I have some decent ish kit and getting more, I ain't on the breadline.

Weren't you working for £100 a day?

Me and my lad went and reduced a birch today, £330, home by one o clock, £70 for his wages, £50 costs/etc.So made a bit of profit and was able to pick my boy up from school and enjoy life, I could easily run on £ 1650 a week. Some times it's more often it's less. Works for me.

Nice one, makes a nice change from the chuck em through the chipper brigade

I voted Green. But Tories will limp in with their whipping boy coalition partners

Same here, that's a hell of a lot of foliage to lose so early coming to full leaf, but yes, better than a fell

Nursing this godawful hangover by the look of it, got a bit over excited at the thought of three days off!

Yes you need it, if they are not bona fide subcontractors, you are liable in case of accidents. Surprised your insurance company didn't make this clear

Must be a lovers tiff I reckon, you ok JON?

The right angle piece is the gauge, drop the cassette out by taking off belts and four bolts that hold it in, put the gauge on the anvil and knock the anvil down till blade just brushes over gauge, and beware the star drives when changing blades, they are cack IME
-
And gap and blades as has been said, when I got mine the gap was way out, after sorting it difference was massive

Yep, efficiency is the key, I'm 37 and yeah 19 year olds wiz round the tree making a million cuts a second, I move round at my own pace and make every cut count( most of the time!). I'd be quite happy to go on and on

john p replied to skyhuck's topic in General chat
Don't ash respond to warmth rather than light to start coming out? Warmest April for last however many years. I may be totally wrong
