  1. I have an ST6P which is only several months old, a bolt snapped leading to a bit of minor damage but no biggie. I couldn’t use the machine so had to rent one to keep working but Forst backup has been absolutely brilliant, just saying. Bravo and thank you Forst.

  2. One of my staff members is going off to University soon so I need a replacement. If you’re interested in the detail as listed in the original post and you think you’re the right type of character please call me on 07834 414271 or [email protected] Thanks Al.
  3. Good research Dan. Thanks. I seem to remember that the Stihl advertises 51 minutes run time while the Echo only 18 minutes. That would be the decider for me, if that’s correct.
  4. Also Mike, leave the fungal brackets on the tree. Don’t break them off.
  5. I’ve had two 2511 for several years and they are brilliant. The carb setting is fiddly to get just right but definitely worth doing or it runs badly. I know a few guys who’ve used 150 and 2511 and always favour the 2511.
  6. I’m interested but the proclaimed battery run time is a heck of a lot less than the Stihl equivalent [emoji51]
  7. Sorry I should have stated that most of our work is in Reigate.
  8. For the same reasons as stated above, I am looking for one more person so give me a shout if you’re the right one.
  9. Thanks Jon That place is good enough but wondered if there is somewhere close.
  10. Does anyone know of any tip sites near there or anywhere in south London (inside M25) but must be open at a weekend. Happy to pay good tipping fee. Must be open on a Saturday and Sunday [emoji51]. One load of woodchip, 1 or 2 loads of logs in 4ft lengths. Will be delivered in Transits. Thanks. Al 07834 414271
  11. Enquires here went mad three weeks ago. I think it’s the national mental state “Life goes on, life must go on”. Hopefully.
  12. I’d recommend the Distels with Velcro uppers and definitely lowers.
  13. Does anyone have one? What are your thoughts? What are the bad points? Thanks. Oregon PS250 battery pole saw (8″ bar & chain) – FR Jones and Son Ltd | Warehouse Operating As Normal WWW.FRJONESANDSON.CO.UK The Oregon Pole Saw gives you precision, power, and a telescoping reach for all trimming and pruning jobs. The shaft allows up to 4.5m of access, while the premium battery pack and mid-mount motor provide you with the longevity and comfort for a long day’s work...
  14. I have the Echo pole saw and I would not recommend it because of the ergonomics of the handle and the chain jumps off very easil. I wish I’d bought the Stihl. I know nothing about any of the other brands.
  15. If I had some high octane Vodka there is no way I’d be using that for sensible things like sanitising or purifying. That stuff would be going straight down the hatch! [emoji1363]?[emoji23]
  16. I’ve just received and email from a well known Arb retailer: 250ml hand sanitiser £24.50! 110 disinfectant wipes £24.45! 5kg of Pasta. WTF! How shameful. I will never again buy from them!
  17. You’d think so but that doesn’t necessarily work. I’ve witnessed it with my own eyes and ears on several occasions.
  18. Thanks Al. Al. [emoji1360]
  19. No, nothing?? Must be something.
  20. Hi J.tyler I’ll call you, at a sociable hour. Thanks Al.
  21. More staff needed with immediate start if possible. Due to a continuing steady influx of work, we need to take on two more people. As ever in this world, everything is flexible. The job can be for self employed or employed but we do need two people full time, ideally. Pay is realistic and based upon your abilities. Predominantly domestic work with some commercial jobs (only the nice ones though). Please contact Alasdair 07834 414271 or [email protected] Thanks.
  22. It’s a few months on, so how are these boots holding up?
  23. IMO this is actually the beginning of the planets 6th mass extinction event. Many species have already fallen because of humans but humans will fall pretty soon anyway. If all things were equal, the final result would probably be about 65-70% death. However the recent human intervention means the final result may be 85-90%, according to people that know a lot more than I do of course. Sorry. Slightly off topic.
  24. Has anyone got the Courant Squire V2 rope? Honey Brothers sell it. Any sensible feedback is well received.
  25. If he’s been using a Willans for 25yrs, he won’t care about fit, comfort or style. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
