  1. I've been putting c section through my cs100 today, didn't seem that keen tbh
  2. Need one or two people to plant a hawthorn hedge on the 12/13 March , must be done well so previous experience prefered, might just be one day. £90 a day. Pm please
  3. That last bit sounds like it's straight out of that 'sunscreen' tune, deep!
  4. Eastern Europeans tend to do the jobs the English won't do, how many young lads or lasses do you know that will pick fruit or veg for a living? Not many I'd bet, local farm has mostly Polish milkers because they are hard working, always turn up and don't begrudge ridiculously early starts, good on em. Farage is a prat, we would be up the creek were we to sleepwalk into his leadership.
  5. When your doing accreditations how do you deal with this issue? With everything else gone over with a fine tooth comb I don't expect you can turn a blind eye to it?
  6. Had my cs100 out today, it's brilliant, munched through everything, when I bought it I was prepared for shedding everything out but I'm pleasantly surprised what you can stuff in it without pratting about. Buy one
  7. No one likes seeing big old cat scratches down the trunk where you've gaffed out,
  8. Due to upturn in work I'm gonna need a decent climber for a few days here and there through March and hopefully April too. Please get in touch through p.m, no offence but I don't need a fresh out of college or mediocre climber.You must have own kit and at least 3 years under your belt. £120-150 a day depending on skill. Generally job and knock days. Cheers
  9. He was very fond of that was he? Not so sure
  10. Lawson hedge bashing, and a lot of grinding!
  11. The problem with land is they just don't make it anymore!
  12. Just ordered some hex bolts for mine, hi tensile grade 10.9, is this up to the job,
  13. Aye egg, the logs have been good to John this winter
  14. You dining at the savoy again John ? Expensive tastes mate
  15. Yes, I think so, the gap was pretty big, got it to 0.5 and its chipping stringy stuff rather than spitting it out! Brilliant machine, really impressed with it
  16. Quite heavy reductions judging by the photos!
  17. Cheers, it's used, not a lot by the look of it though, will get the feeler gauges out tomorrow!
  18. First day out with mine today, chipped up some sycamore fine, then put some pittosporum through and and it hated it spat it out in stringy complete little branches, then proper blocked! Dropped the cassette out in blocked it, I'm assuming the gap between blade and anvil is too wide so it's letting material through without cutting it? Manual says 0.5mm, so half a mm, the gap on mine looks closer to 5mm, manual is none to clear really, half a mm seems very very small!
  19. Hi got a biggish job near martock next week, be four or five loads of Lawson chip ( clean) any one near by? Cheers
  20. Ha, yes, I was at luffa 88/94, much fun
  21. You a Chi lad too then Ty? I lived there till '96 or so
