  1. Yeah, they put it up £6 pm last year when I hit 40!
  2. I do, £58 pm, but starts paying out straight away £1200 pm.
  3. Buy a grinder, I found customer s prefer a one stop service rather than my mate will be over next week to grind, you have control of the job/clear up and your reputation!
  4. I reckon that’s a good note to finish off this thread!
  5. Might start an asbestos tip site if we get turned down!
  6. We are currently trying to get planning on our land for two mobile homes, understandably the locals are having kittens about it, watch this space
  7. Here we go
  8. I’m doing some trees at my mums mid July, need to lose a load of clean conifer chip. Happy to sort a drink out. Cheers
  9. This thread is bound to end well......
  10. That’s how I keep an eye on my lads
  11. Think a lot of it’s psychological as well, I’m happiest climbing because on my jobs 9/10 of the time we rock up, bosh the job out, on the way home 2 ish mostly. Nothing depresses me more than turning up at a weeks worth of hand cutting with no end in sight!
  12. Hope your air conditioning was on full blast Bob!
  13. I know, I’m a bad person!
  14. Hand cutter, climbing s a doodle!
  15. Wearing jeans climbing today, the relief is immense!
  16. Cherry picker and a crane save so much work, would have been rubbish doing that on spikes and rigging it all down
  17. http://www.silvatreesurgeons.co.uk
  18. Go wild camping on Hampstead Heath for the night.
  19. Steve Bullman has done an excellent job on my website, I’ve had a noticeable increase in enquiries. There’s a lot of competition out there, and a really pro site can make you stand out from the rest. But nothing will ever beat word of mouth.
  20. My budget is about £3 Pd seems to bring the work in
  21. Well that’s settled it, they want an extra £200 a year, 79 +vat per month! No chance
  22. Aye, I’m doing 3 or 4 days a week at the mo, spend the other days with my 13 month old daughter, these days don’t come back around! I love my kids and like my work, no contest for me.
