  1. This might be of interest BushWear: SPOT Messenger 2 - NEW [ame] [/ame]
  2. Will try my hardest to get to Wrexham. Won't book till I know though.
  3. Just ordered a set in red I'll do a review at some point.
  4. Thats a lot of timber! Harvester, better tracked if it is that bad. Good luck, if you need a hand cutter let me know
  5. I like my 2002 Peugeot Partner It's no VW but for the money its bob on. Motorway run this weekend with a canoe on the roof about 43mpg. My old man (6'4) has plenty of room. Not fast, but not bad. It's got a 1.9 but the lack of turbo shows. Tax is alright and insurance on its cheaper than anything else I could find, main reason I got it Dad has a Combo, Connect, Astra and Kangoo for his boys, I think mine is second to the Transit in "specs"- but cheaper to buy, run and insure. The Berlingo and Partner are the same vehicle underneath.
  6. Sweet truck boss, liking the lockbox Been painted up now so the van has. Seen atop my plumbers roof rack is my quote vehicle for island trees
  7. There won't be any of those "Beauty of dead-standing"/Hama/Monkey D softy threads for a start.
  8. I wear kit a lot harder than most, especially stalking kit. But Swazi is one of the best three makes (All NZ thinking about it), and the only one that does special clothes for kitchen staff Last 5 times longer than the Mountain Equipment, Berghaus, Northface equivalent
  9. Dito I think MrH is about right though. If you refuse it you might be looking for another job at the end of the week.
  10. One Tough Sister Jacket - SWAZI New Zealand - The world's most durable clothing. Friend of mine swears by this. She is a horse breaker and has had it about three years or so. Expensive but well worth it. I'll vouch for Swazi too, their kit might be pricey but its worth every penny.
  11. Think mine is £350 compared to the £3000 a van is.
  12. Does anyone know where you get the large decals for the side of your van? The City & Guilds say they don't do anything that big I'v seen a couple of people on here have them, just wondering where you get them from
  13. 460 is a beast, my choice out of the two. However the 576 looks pretty smart, mate is impressed with his, and is a bit cheaper I think. Sam
  14. Haha, yeah, sounds about right. You'll have the infamous "Fozzy, King of the forwarders" for some things though. Legend
  15. Honestly don't go there expecting any sort of organisation! I still haven't been given a start time for my course yet
  16. Not bad... [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njG1STYKMF8&feature=related]YouTube - ‪75 foot tomahawk throw‬‏[/ame]
