With regards to local authority trees what would be the minimum qualifications and experience required to assess tree safety in high risk areas? I am thinking from a liability aspect should the worst occur and what the outcome would be if an unsuitable person's decision were to cause serious injury to a third party.

The tree officer puts the TPO on if it’s justified not the person who made the call. I’m off to cut down the Crouch Oak and maybe some other historical trees.

It's the super wealthy that tell you to "look over there at the migrants who are taking your wealth" not us.

I would be interested to see the failure percentage between DRT and SRT. When used with a wrench it doesn't seem to stretch the links as much.

When you need to double the rope just put your HAAS with a revolver on your line and clip your tail end in to it.

Harness is on upside down and twisted. The red tool attachments are pointing up.

Damn straight. Hold my pint.

I have the low powered connect 07 plate for running around. 500 miles to a tank of fuel I think that's quite good.

I see the point of the original post. But the way I feel about this underpaid industry at the moment good on 'em. There's plenty of so called pro outfits with massive turn overs that churn out the same quality work whilst paying a pittance to employees. It's okay though because they have all the gear and no idea!!

So long as the bar nose guard is removable.

Amen to the parts expense. Mine is 04 126000miles and has been really reliable and is a great truck. But Mercedez own it so aftermarket parts are not easy to find and Rossetts is expensive. Check how expensive parts are for each vehicle, pay load and fuel consumption.

The general pop' I meet think trees are a pain in the...dirty things that block the light, kill the grass and make perches for the birds to crap all over the garden chairs. They do love them though just not in their garden.

The tree species is?? Read your insurance small print and go from there regardless of what your gut or anyone else says they would do. I wouldn't quote from a photo and wouldn't dream of giving a thumbs up to climbing what looks and sounds like a dangerous tree from one.

I'm in the same boat but with the PTI and 15 years climbing. Really struggling to get my foot in the door at the moment. Good luck.

Asking a bod' to warm the saw up before attaching to the line. Then watch them needlessly use the decomp' switch also flooding the thing in the process.

Hello Darrin, How do you store it when not in use, has it come into contact with spikes in your kit bag? Thorny trees can pull stitching and fibres in ropes as well. Nothing detrimental normally cosmetic.

In the beginning, there was Jack, and Jack had a groove. And from this groove came the groove of all grooves. And while one day viciously throwing down on his box, Jack boldy declared, "Let there be HOUSE!" and house music was born. "I am, you see, I am the creator, and this is my house! And, in my house there is ONLY house music. But, I am not so selfish because once you enter my house it then becomes OUR house and OUR house music!" And, you see, no one man owns house because house music is a universal language, spoken and understood by all. You see, house is a feeling that no one can understand really unless you're deep into the vibe of house. House is an uncontrollable desire to jack your body. And, as I told you before, this is our house and our house music. And in every house, you understand, there is a keeper. And, in this house, the keeper is Jack. Now some of you who might wonder, "Who is Jack, and what is it that Jack does?" Jack is the one who gives you the power to jack your body! Jack is the one who gives you the power to do the snake. Jack is the one who gives you the key to the wiggly worm. Jack is the one who learns you how to walk your body. Jack is the one that can bring nations and nations of all Jackers together under one house. You may be black, you may be white; you may be Jew or Gentile. It don't make a difference in OUR House. And this is fresh. GET IIIIIIN:thumbup:

Insurance doesn't prove professionalism. You don't need qual's to be insured in this game. If he is none of the above that may seem perfectly okay to him. Especially if he is using a carpentry saw and chucking it in the back of his run around. TBC.

I never ask for mates rates that way I don't get upset and I don't owe the same courtesy. What I do expect is a going rate from a friend for a tip top spot on 'arrods customer service. No complaints and a "will that be all sir before you retire." As for 5 minute job how do you get there, Teleportation? It takes me that long to get out of the truck at the end of the day let alone muster up the energy for a favour.

Certificate Europe. The big boys club!

The Council ignored a free expert opinion, who was it from "Cheeky Jimmy Cranky"?

Brillo pads😂😂

Don't use detergent. Hot water and tumbling about will clean it well enough.
