    visited the 9/11 memorial site today. the Callery Pear was buried under a ton of rubble, but still survived. The Parks department did a good job of keeping it going. Martyn

    I can confirm that if you ordered a mile of rope from Yale, you can have what colour you like, as long as some one else has not ordered it before. Mind you this was at least 10 years ago. Arborgold and Honeybee ropes where both made by Yale. Martyn

    Simmons saws near Petworth, Sussex use to be great for McCulloch spares. I know they are Stihl dealers now, but you never know!

    Perhaps that’s why I have white finger! Especially in the right index finger

    When I was a teenager in the 70’s, a long time ago, we use to use the Mac 6. Top handle saw for climbing. At the time a great saw. Not sure if they would compete with the modern Stihls etc Martyn

  17. Martyn Honey
    Hi I am roughly in your area next Tuesday and Wednesday, the 4th and 5th. For a LOLER inspection. Let us know how many kits you have PM me or phone 07760 692984 Martyn
  18. Martyn Honey
    Yes you a right. I think someone earned a few Euros putting that lot up! I would think the LA would have contacted that out.

    Thats a few quids worth of bracing in there Martyn!
  20. Martyn Honey
    I came across this cobra bracing, on a large Ficus, while on a Christmas break in Cartagena, Spain. Not seen this amount in one tree. A lot of it was very slack and not doing much of a job. The tree was in a large Square, so probably looked after by the local authority. Martyn

    Hi Guys After 12 years since I sold Honey Brothers, I decided to have a website for my LOLER business! My son Dominic built most of it for me, but it is only the second one he has built. The first being his own. So any criticism greatly received. Web site address is martynhoney.co.uk Thanks in advance. Martyn
  22. Martyn Honey
    How quickly does he need doing it. I am in that area at the end of January if that’s any help. Martyn
  23. Martyn Honey
    It’s been around for quite a few years! I think we started (when I ran the company) to import Cousin in around 1999. The rope looked very similar to Yale XTC+ but it used to ‘milk’ a fair bit. I haven’t seen in a while on my LOLER Inspections Martyn

    I have a friend who lives completely off grid, mainly because where he lives in the hills in Spain, the power company wanted to charge him €10,000 to put the power cables in. It is now 12 years since putting in the solar panels and the batteries are now going. The trouble is, that he has 12 and they’re €390 each! Okay living in southern Spain you obviously get more sun, but nothing is free in the end. Also when it rains all day, not very often, he has to use his generator. He heats the whole house in the winter with a wood burner. PS Buying electric in Spain is the most expensive in Europe. So you can see why a lot of people are going renewable. Martyn

    The trouble is with my clients, is that the boss is the qualified inspector and also run the finance. I do know where some larger firms who employ a safety officer and also does the Inspections. Then as far as the insurance firms are concerned is OK. But I agree with you last paragraph, they do get away with enough.
