  1. Quality. Give it back to him, preferably flung from said shovel with a direct hit! http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  2. I don't mind admitting I have verging on a phobia of dogs doodoo. I feel really sorry for you guys having to endure strimming through it. Other than getting on a plane it is my worst nightmare!!! I cannot fathom out the mentality of someone who bags it and then chucks it for an unsuspecting victim to find. At a local lake where kids go to fish I have noticed that the dog walkers collectively toss the little landmines into a pile (loose on the floor) thinking that its ok. I feel the need for a public campaign is required (posters, signs, tv adverts) as for me this is a huge problem. This Disgusting behaviour from mindless people needs to be challenged. http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  3. I shall never forget nearly stopping breathing the first time you did that impression - great stuff mate!! http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  4. It appears that rhizomes is the technical term for the under ground stem system!! http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  5. I'd love to know if there is an answer to the mares tail problem. I've been plagued by it for 7 years and can't shift it no matter what. It has a cross lattice of black tuber like roots under the surface and no amount of pulling up, digging out or spraying seems to get rid of it. Help!!! http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  6. Familiar with the vast majority on the list. Nice to cross reference the ones I'm not so hot on though! http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  7. Thank you hazforester, that is useful, im doing my PTI course in October.
  8. That long handled billhook in your avatar looks like it would do some damage!!
  9. Looking forward to the harness review silky....... http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  10. Yeah I really like my 150 too. It has done me proud the last 2 & 1/2 years. I hope it keeps on going strong for a long time yet!!! http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  11. How much is the new 240 going to cost? http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  12. Of the 150 that is http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  13. Not a fan then ic!!!! http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  14. I've been invited to a demo day at Landpower machinery this weds to try out this machine. Unfortunately we are too busy with work and I won't make it. Id like to see it working so its a shame. Apparently it is sub 750kg? http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  15. 088 47" & 36" bars. What a beast. Hasn't been out for a while but when it does make an appearance it certainly does the business. When I've got bigger timber to ring up at the yard it gets used which not only gives it a chance to have a run but means the job is done in no time!! http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  16. Changed my Petzl lid 6 months ago, previous one lasted me 5 years. Two new sets of chipper spec muffs and three visors in that time. I try to get the most out of kit.... However personal safety is far more precious than the cost of some new chainsaw protective trousers or a lid. Some people take it to the extreme with shiny new kit (good for them I say) But it sounds like you value your safety. Good for you.
  17. As I have witnessed many times before. ------------------------------ Colleges are businesses and bums on seat and pass rates are the number goal. Some shocking decisions to pass people have been seen with my very own eyes. And some shocking work carried out by people telling me they are 'fully qualified' whatever that is?!! Even one of my best mates who works for a countryside college as an instructor says its all to pot and standards are almost non existent. Sorry rambling rant over! In need a cup of tea and a bacon Sanger!!! http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  18. I'll second that mate. http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  19. I've heard jumping koi carp can be lethal!!!!!! ;-) http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  20. Sounds mega!!!! http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  21. She looks a beast! When you say tickled.... J e engineering do a lump for a defender that is supercar quick - it's not the 4.2 with 480bhp is it?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Joking of course! http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
  22. Very happy for you mate. I know how much they all mean to you... http://www.aatreesurgeon.co.uk
