  1. If you are a free lance climber with at least 3 years experience in the Nairn, Inverness and Elgin area please get in touch.. Please though I need experienced self motivated people I'm not looking for a trainee or a grounds man, nor anyone fresh out of college. Wages negotiable.
  2. The trouble with the internet is there are so many people, the trouble with people is some are arses and some are good.. It winds me up how there are so many stupid comments left on Arb talk and other site to try get you into an argument.
  3. Rob there is a fantastic company called Chains Direct you might have heard of them, we use them all the time next day service and free delivery.. to wait for it ..the Highlands, They must have contended on, that Royal mail don’t charge any extra if you live anywhere in the UK. The couriers who charge 3x as much to deliver use Royal Mail and subcontract it. 40% of royal mails letters are from other company’s. So i'm sorry I don’t buy the I must know that by now coment that I live in the highlands
  4. Yes totally! Then hope you can't be bothered going else where! any way I should have just ignored it lol
  5. Thanks to the people who put sensible replies on this and to F R Jones and Son I’ll have a look at your site tonight. I think some people have missed the point entirely I’m not trying to humiliate any company nor do I care if it costs more to post to the highlands or who’s side they are on It simply up to the consumer make the choice to pay it or not. This was mealy to highlight a company with bad manners. Unfortunately some people like to try draw you into an argument which is a disappointment
  6. Steve, I'm sorry you misunderstood why I posted the email! Firstly I didn’t do it to humiliate. Secondly I find Arb talk a very useful resource for people in the industry to share information and experiences with. Clearly I need to look more closely at the rules for future..
  7. Hi, no I politely said to the company that I was about to order the item and was hit with a high postage making it more expensive, I simply asked if they would like to match the price of competitors. They then came back with the email I posted! It only required a yes or no answer.
  8. Intresting it seems we have become Communist my post has been tampered with and no longer shows the sender??
  9. Absolutely, yes agreed it’s annoying people wanting discounts and margins are being squeezed to the point they are only making a few pounds on internet sales but that’s the business they choose to be in. If they wanted instead to set up as a local supplier who makes a healthy margin with lower volume then that’s fine I think this chap in question should do that. Or do as I advised him and to do is pay someone else to answer his company’s emails. My gripe is that they want silly money to post to the highlands of Scotland.
  10. yeah great idea! If i told it how it is to mine I would be on the dole!
  11. This is a copy of an email from ***** when I dare ask if they would do free postage on a large order... Hi When the carriers and royal mail give me free postage i will pass that on untill then, if you want your postage for free go elsewhere Regards Sent from my iPhone
  12. Cheers guys, I aggree with Mesterh I'm not wanting a rope that stretches defeats the propose! FandR Jones looks like it has some good stuf!

  14. Well said Sniffy! If it wood and its dry it will burn. As I say to firewood scroungers when they sniff their noise up at FREE soft wood.. Free wood is good burning wood!! If you want the hard go buy it! You don't walk into tesco and say can I have some free Petrol please, any going spare that you want rid of??
