  1. Hi, I've not been on here in a long time so sorry if its been asked before, but I'm in need of some new chainsaw trousers and will need to buy them in South Wales, but not being from there I don't really know any suppliers. Can anyone recommend anywhere near Brecon? Thanks
  2. This is a little worrying. This guy obviously hasn't put much thought to the fact that the tree laying in the house could have little Timmy squashed somewhere underneath it. Personally if it was me I'd have it out.
  3. CS38 and 39 holder needed for river clearance job starting on Monday, must have experience and references, job is ongoing until October or until job is complete. Job will involve working from a barge at times and from the bank at others. £100/day. Please ring 07538037775 or email [email protected], don't inbox me on here as my phone won't allow me to read it. Thanks, joe
  4. Most of the fuel lines on my old crosser were made of these handles for a while.. http://i00.i.aliimg.com/photo/v0/289142102/tube_handle_plastic_bag.jpg Complete with paper clip carb float hinge
  5. Hi all, Living in Bristol and I'm looking to do a couple of days training before each exam and then the exams themselves, anyone know of anywhere good close by?
  6. I'm also self employed but happy to go PAYE too, up to you.
  7. Hi guys, Groundie here with a few years experience and fairly good arboricultural knowledge plus the odd bit of climbing experience should you want to develop it that way. Looking for all and any work around the Bristol area. Now the bad news, unfortunately I don't have my driver's license yet but I am working on getting it ASAP! Unfortunately I'm stuck in the vicious cycle of no license, no work, no money, no license at the moment. Would be great to hear from anyone who can offer any work. Obviously I have my own PPE.
  8. <p>Cheers for going and having a look mate, how much do you want for them? Also where are you if you don't mind as I might be able to come grab them rather than get a courier or whatever</p>

  9. Thanks for your suggestions guys, I did have a look at the Yukons and they're a strong contender at the moment, but if I can get a pair of Stretch Airs then you know what I'm going to go for! Would be much appreciated if you could have a look for me thanks Tommy.
  10. Damn, they're out of my size! I'll have a look for them somewhere else, cheers for the suggestion
  11. Oh and whilst we're at it if anyone knows anywhere good for gloves or helmets that'd be grand haha
  12. Hi all, Need some new type C chainsaw trousers, don't really mind what class, but I'm on a budget. I'm a 34/35 waist, does anyone know anywhere to pick them up cheap? Or could anyone at least recommend a couple of brands and models to have a bit of faith in? I've seen pairs going for £60 but I don't know the brand and don't really want to end up with some that fall apart 6 months down the line.. My budget is under <£100 really but I can go a little over if some sort of amazing bargain crops up. Thanks a load in advance
  13. I've done various jobs on different traveller sites, never took precautions over payment, used their gear most of the time, and I've never had any complaints, always paid, always polite, always got the kettle on the go.
  14. Fair enough, I might stick with the class 1's then. I want to be safe, but I don't want to spend all day in a sauna with limited mobility. Anyone recommend any good brands? Looking for durability and comfort, as is everyone I suppose.
  15. Fair enough haha, I'm wearing Class 1 Type A's at the moment, but I'm off to college to go climbing so will need Type C at least. Is there much practical difference between 1 & 2? And also how much difference does it make to how well you can move?
  16. Hi, Can anyone point me in the direction of some Class 2 Type C trousers? I can only seem to find Class 1 in Type C. Thanks
  17. Last year I gave up the (very) extreme way, I left all the cig butts I had for a week in a little tupperware tub full of water, than had a little sip. Trust me, you won't want one again. This year I'm getting fitter by doing the again extreme P90X scheme, looks pretty intense, I 'm starting next week.
  18. I'm just going to stitch some buttons onto mine and crack on haha. Stretch Airs do seem like the way to go to me, I haven't heard a bad word about them.
  19. To be honest, if he's in the situation where he's begging £3 at petrol stations, self-inflicted or not, I'd probably just give him the £3, he needs it more than I do.
  20. Fit is definitely important, although it's a bit late for that now haha. I've got Stihl Forestwear Classics, and they weigh an absolute facking ton, and although I had no issues using braces whilst it lasted, all the little brass fixings that they attach to on the trousers have fallen off after about 6-7 months. Meh, I would say invest in some braces, they were great when I was using them.
  21. Going back a bit, it was for Chris Wills, in fact if you're who I think you are then you met him and my mum not that long ago.
  22. Taw and Torridge, just around the corner from where I first started out
  23. Nothing much so far, just a doctor who asked for tree work and then asked us to "keep the noise down"!! Anyone who trys to get away without paying has all the waste we removed free of charge dumped back on their drive
  24. Pepsi doesn't contain Taurine, or as much Caffeine. Monster is the way to go, but only the one in the black can with the green M, the others contain 50% fruit juice which means they're not as strong I find. All that can't be good for your/my heart though
