Remember when the British legal system was the envy of the world?

But to actually break them?
-
What on earth are they doing to them?

Thanks.

A lot of people (twenty-year-experienced climbers, company owners, kit salesmen) don’t know what it is. I can tell a mile off that you’ve done your homework and you’re not thinking in the box that 95% of tree workers are. You’ve already worked out which old school stuff is shit and you’ll be furious by about hour three of the course at how lo-fi it is. You’ll probably be teaching your instructor things by the end of day one. Good luck with your climbing but I reckon you’ll have it sorted pretty quickly. Have a search for my post/thread on my chest harness. That’s how I keep my hitch and wrench tended on ascents. It’s actually a bit better now but you’ll get the idea.

What is it without wheels please?
-
Report back after your courses please. I’d be interested to know how good a climber you are compared to the others on the course and your instructor. Win a bonus point for if you’re told that single rope is half as safe.
-
Yeah. Frodsham caught my eye. I think there’s a crag there. I’m not bothered about towns though. Bed calls. Time to pile up all the saws etc on one side.

Google maps, the bastard, lured me in for £2 for the bridge (or a long billion if not paid within 24 hours no doubt). Wigan last week wasn’t as bad as it sounds.

A pleasant enough gravelly corner just far enough away from the armpit that is Runcorn.

The film, Enemy of the State addressed that pretty well. Is there much you can say to people like that though? I’d like to think so but I’ve been disappointed before. Talking of pubs, you may see me in one soon. Will send you a private message as the week pans out. -
My first thought but not happening.

At least those people can be called by the defence. Little comfort to someone dragged through it for months/years though. There’s a lot wrong with the criminal system just in the admin (bad cops and CPS aside). Go and sit in a crown court for a few hours. Ask the usher (probably sitting at computer near the way in) what’s happening if it’s not obvious. It’ll be 10% actual legal stuff and the rest will be a judge on £130,000 a year asking for the tenth time that day why the wrong prisoner is on the video link or why he isn’t there when he ordered that he should be or whether someone could look round the building for him. Meanwhile, a defendant will be marooned in another courtroom because his brief is stuck exchanging chit chat with ushers and oppos while the clerk is on the phone trying to get a trial date this century. -
It’s a good example of the reasoning for it. Forty foot cypress. Limbs up to three inches and a few tops. The walk to the road is across the lawn, up some steps, round a corner, through the 700mm door and through the garage. The walk the other way is down gabioned terraces 3m vertically (covered in sentimentally valuable plants) or a set of garden steps (gate at bottom), across a stream and then 3m up to where some poor bastards dumped half the sister tree ten years ago. The other half, they dragged through the partially built garage and caused all sorts of mess and damage.

Thanks.

The CPS are dreadful for it, disclosing five times late or not at all. Ask any criminal defence lawyer. -
How to grow my business, how did you grow yours?
AHPP replied to Chipperclown's topic in General chat
You recently posted about how many blokes and how much kit you had and how you weren't making much money... He can price how he likes. That's the market. It's not his fault if you've got kit and staff costs to factor into every job, some of which he can do more efficiently/cheaply over three mornings with a silky and a bonfire. -
Hang on. Do you mean your M300 is 700mm with wheels or without wheels?
-
Too tight and I'm not a door fitter. I'm hoping someone will come up with something 600 or so that I've not yet found.
-
It was actually 690mm with the door in the frame. Why they couldn't be standard and bigger, I don't know. Then you could fit sofas etc through them easily.
-
Thanks, both.
-
I'd be very grateful.
-
Which bit is 625mm? Website says 720mm. https://www.jobeau.eu/en/store/woodchipper/professional-woodchipper/m300-woodchipper
-
Yep. I read that. It's a passageway in a garage so diagonal not possible.
-
Could someone with a Timberwolf 13/75G put a tape measure across it for me please. I want to get one through a 700mm doorway. Will it go down that narrow with the hopper and wheels and axle off?
