  1. Damn! thats what i was thinking but never said cos i figured you or Gerrit would come on and mock my terrible fung id:blushing: Oh well looks like i am an expert after all
  2. pole pruners are great for this kind of job to take off the higher limbs, so if she rolls while doing the limbs under tension then your less likely to get hit by anything from above. Mainly just take your time and be very very careful, always have an escape and always be ready to run like hell. Try to never work with anything above you and just keep nipping away at it till its down. Having a winch on it or being able to tie it off to another tree is always a good option. Most important of all is being able to understand where it will roll and when but that aint easy and i guess is what gets people killed:thumbdown:
  3. Wow and here was me thinking i was going to be the lightest but you beat me by 9 kilos! i get told i look like the side of a fiver so you must be the side of a fiver thats not been printed yet:lol:
  4. I dont wash mine, I like em stinky so they wake me up in the morning:puke: I also like the way i can just prop them up against the wall, it saves folding them. As long as i keep the door closed to the spare room where they are kept then the wallpaper doesnt curl in the rest of the house and the burglars will give themselves away with the gagging sounds so i can get up and beat them with a tea spoon (anything heavier and i might get arrested)
  5. Guess i am one of the lightest then at 59 kilos, i have the skinniest legs in the world, like toothpicks they are. I eat more than most people i know so i dont know where it all goes:confused1:
  6. What is this summer thing you all talk about?
  7. My sentiments exactly!! wow
  8. i like the long gaffs, especially good when climbing an ivy covered nightmare!
  9. legend why not? at least you would know who to punch while walking along the street:001_rolleyes: seriously though "no jewellery policy" i think theres your joke right there. Also i think you will find that a wristband isnt jewellery its a symbol of support. Wake up Britain you are becoming a joke:thumbdown:
  10. i havent:001_huh: thats a big BIG mistake and you never start cutting till your 100% sure its the right tree.
  11. rip it off and smooth out your new edge by sanding and live with a slightly slimmer table, simples. That comes from someone who has never done any of this before so feel free to ignore me:001_rolleyes:
  12. looks more like rabbit dung to me.
  13. Yea and crap in a bag set it on fire on their doorstep, ring the bell and run away. That should give them some aromatherapy to think about lol. Seriously though do it by the book get a lawyer involved and get your cash plus expenses and you dont need to worry about it. Non payers need a boot where the sun dont shine and lawyers are good at it legally.
  14. Sorry mate it was asking for a laugh this thread lol:001_tongue: £2.50 per log? haha sorry that just makes me laugh every time, think i will go follow some horsies around with a shovel, bag and clothes peg. maybe spread some curry on the fields before just to get production up:thumbup:
  15. Nice one Andy i like your style:thumbup:
  16. Guess its funny for us then:001_rolleyes:
  17. maybe you could have in your advert "All kinds of logs supplied and i mean ALL kinds, come have a sniff around the yard and pick your favourite" :lol:
  18. haha sorry mate maybe i should put up a warning next time:thumbup:
  19. puts a new meaning to your name "log supplier"
  20. sad news, thoughts go out to his family
  21. Well thats me told:blushing: Fictional??? does that mean i wont get to run around caving skulls in with a baseball bat and chopping heads of out the side of my modified tank with an 088? man that sucketh, i was well prepared for it too:001_rolleyes:
  22. thats because there is a male presence, and females being the way they are, prefer making us suffer as often and for as long a time as possible, they will readily synchronise their ovulation to spread out evenly over the month so that just when you think its all over, it starts again at the beginning:thumbdown: I just made that all up but it sounds about right
  23. this is what i use, pole saw is silky zubat and the loppers are fiskars
