  1. Is this your own hedge or one you look after for a customer?
  2. No it seems it is me that was given duff info sorry
  3. A number for you all to get to know is 112. If you have no signal it will search all other networks till it finds a signal and contacts the emergency services
  4. I am disabled and use a wheelchair. There is so much new tech coming on stream that will be useful to me as I get older that will need a smart phone so I thought I better start will I am not too far out of touch
  5. I have been using a Samsung C3350 for the last few years. Dropped it in puddles, Hit it with logs and hammers etc. Still works but have reluctantly moved up to a smart phone. I know I am going to have to be much more carful with my phone in future.
  6. Where are you I would love to take some off your hands
  7. is he at one of the specialist spinal injury centres? I hope so as he will get the best available. I work for Aspire (a spinal injury charity) as an adviser pm me if it could help?
  8. Surely this is wrong as it would mean you would only shift 37.5kg in a 2 wheel barrow. I worked on a farm and could move more than you total with a standard farmer's wheelbarrow
  9. What is the best shredder for a large garden to get rid of green waste as well as some woody material
  10. http://www.autosiliconehoses.com/silicone-coupler-hose-60mm-choose-your-length-colour.html -60 to +180 C
  11. Google 60mm air ducting comes up with lots of options
  12. I would repair mine and every other spinal injury.
  13. In a small woodland, 750 trees with a mix of 12 different species, I have included a few ash. Maybe they will survive maybe they wont but worst case will be a bit of natural thinning.
  14. Sorry to hijack this but I live kings Bromley. I have a 4x4 and twin axle trailer. I would be happy to take some of your arisings for my firewood. Could also help move things back to your yard but as I am a wheelchair user I would not be much other use.
  15. https://www.gov.uk/rest-breaks-work
  16. offer the hay/haylage to a farmer so long as he mows late in the year. Anytime after 15th July should work and you get the wildflower and the work for free!
  17. If you cover the coals with wood ash before you go to bed it will still be alit in the morning. Just rake out the ash and add more wood
  18. As a wheelchair user I wish there were clearly marked places where people can park and where they cannot. It is so accepted that people will park on the pavement to keep the road open that no one ever thinks if it would then block access to wheelchairs and pushchairs
  19. It depends a lot on the lawn in question. What weeds are there and what nutrients are needed. It there was a simple straight forward answer the general public would not need any help!
  20. cut it back hard it will soon grow back
  21. 25 miles away or i would have loved to help out. Kings Bromley DE13 7HW
  22. Picked up some wood from a local tree surgeon with my trailer today so i have a good start. Best thing was it was free of charge so many thanks and a bottle will be on its way. Still looking if anyone else has some.
  23. I can see the back of my wood store now. Fairly sure i have enough for this winter but it is a good time to look for wood for next winter. I am a disabled guy ( broke my back in 2003) but still like to get as hands on as possible. I use an electric chain saw and there is a young guy that helps with splitting. I am looking for arb arisings.. Anything from branches to rings or up to 1 metre lengths. Will take anything and happy to pay something for better wood. I have farm house in Kings Bromley and a field in Yoxall near Burton on Trent
