  1. Whats a freelancer meant to drive around in? Alot of subbies have there own buisness and sub out to fill up free days. In some cases i know i few guys that get work because they can provide a tipper aswell as themselves? If you do get a signwritten truck maybe just cover up your name when working for others.

    It does go without saying you would not employ somone again if they rocked up on site dressed head to toe in there own uniform aha. In my experience you usually get given an old or somtimes new company shirt anyways!

     

    Not sure if this helps tho sorry

  2. How bad is the speaker? I would be mainly using external speaker for sat nav rather than music/videos etc.

     

    It's the xperia, the galaxy s4 or HTC one for me, just trying to decide which one!

     

    Wouldnt go for the HTC one bro, its smaller and slower than my galaxy s2!

  3. if im working on them in it or on the ground ski goggles are good they help with non sticky eyes the next day its gonna get hot no matter what i get a nice cough from it but i cant get on with masks. we dont do too many but leave it to winter if we can.

     

    Yeah im the same cant stand the masks, we allways seem to get issued whole roads of them just as the leaves come out... But thats local authority for you aha

  4. The decay was very soft, like sponge, i said merip to begin with because i thought i would have found evidence if it was either gano or kretchmaria. It wasnt that windy tbh, didnt get called in untill the morning so im guessing it happened at night. The pic with the bar is after the first ring was taken of, that disentgrated when it hit the ground though

  5. Thought this might interest some! I think its meripilus sp. Correct me if im wrong. The beech itself was showing good leaf coverage not much, no fb's present apart from a few in the root plate but not obvious without excavation. Tree was located in portsmouths oldest cemetry on one of the main footpaths!

     

    Decay went about four foot up the stem but not past the first big union.

    Im not involved in surveying these trees just the contractor!

     

    Any questions i'll try and answer?
