  1. I got the Ferrex one from Aldi for £100 - seems to be good for the odd bit of work I’ve done with it. I have several Kangos needing work but the spares don’t seem to be available anymore so I replaced with the Ferrex
  2. Set strict payment deadlines after which interest will be charged with a reminder one day before.
  3. Probably - but pictures would definitely help!
  4. Wet all day here in Essex- got another 6 out of 16 50ft leylandi to fell but the ground is now too boggy to get the truck and chipper near. No idea how long it’ll take to get dry enough ☹️
  5. RIP Dave Myers of the Hairy Bikers - love his and Si Kings way of bouncing of each other
  6. With new customers, I always stipulate payment on the day the job is complete at the quote stage. I’ll wait till that payment hits my account before leaving unless it’s cash or cheque. Will soon get a card reader too I think. Been messed around a few times and won’t work for those people twice. You soon get to know who you can trust to pay later that day/evening etc
  7. How will they class the extra type cab/supercab with occasional seats in the back?
  8. Been listening to him since the radio 1 days - such a shame at no great age at all ☹️
  9. Morning troops - dry here at last thankfully as off to do a repollard of a spready, wide London Plane. Hopefully done by mid afternoon but as I’m the brash dragger that’ll be the bottleneck 👍
  10. Loving the claws👍
  11. Here are two of my six
  12. Hope there’s a video of this somewhere? 😂

    HARNESS

    What fits one person won’t be comfortable for another. Best thing is visit a dealer and try options on
  14. My wife uses these firelighters to get the kindling going as she’s not very good at lighting the fire when I’m not there. I just use scrunched up newspaper under my free, bone dry kindling
  15. Aah yes, I stand corrected! Knew it was something nasty 👍
  16. So long as he was outside with good ventilation it’s not going to be the Laurel. Chip it up inside a barn or carry the brash/chips in the back of a van/car and then yes the (arsenic?) fumes can really get to you to the point of poisoning
  17. Unlikely with the Red Sea problems lately
  18. Nice standard job every 3-4 years by the looks of it - only way to keep a large specimen like this in that size garden 👍
  19. Best of luck with your recovery 👍 the part where you said you’d added pictures shortly after saying it affects the penis had me dreading scrolling down I have to say 😂
  20. This exactly 👍 New fence will be pushed out of alignment pretty quickly by the existing Laurel so fell, grind out the roots and replant
  21. Just click on view or download here are screenshots
  22. Dry is dry - are tumble dried clothes any drier than those on the washing line on a breezy day? Tumble drier just uses power to dry, same with kiln dried logs
  23. Could easily turn up to church in that Mick as it’s proper posh looking is what Stubby is saying 👍
  24. I’ve too been with virgin since it was telewest. Use Hotmail without a hitch. I’m not familiar with thunderbird?
  25. Attitude is most important, but please get spelling right as this is your first impression. Job applications, tree reports, quotations, tpo applications- all rely on what you write rather than how you come across as a person 👍
