Is Helen from HR your wife?

Alright you lot? I'm just renewing my Professional Indemnity insurance and spotted a clause referring to sub-contractor agreements. Basically they are only insured if I have a written agreement with them. Do any of you hairy arsed apes have these with your subbies? And if so did you have the agreements drawn up by a legal professional or did you scribble something down on the back of a chain box?

Hey kids, Might finally be time to retire my trusty Vermeer 625. It has been a strong and reliable piece of kit, all be it a little slow. Does anyone have any experience of the BC160XL? I can't find much online about them but they're really compact and from what I've seen, as quick as any other chipper. Not sure anything comes close regarding over-engineering and longevity. "Ernie" has 3600 hrs on the clock and still as strong as ever. Any info gratefully received.

Stolen from locked toolbox tonight 23 March 5.30 - 7.30. Long Ashton Bristol: MS201 top handle, BR420 leaf blower, bag of climbing gear (Komet harness, Marlow rope, last of the Petzl ball lock carabiners, slings, prusik loops etc) and the worst thing, my Kelly kettle! Subby had his van broken into this week too. Long reach hedge trimmers taken from the garden WE WERE WORKING IN last month! Bristol needs some pest control. There's a fun fair here at the moment..

Hi Kids, I've just dragged my new (second hand) Vermeer 625 wood chipper home and immediately started looking for a user manual. Vermeer say if I give them the serial number they'll send me one. So... does anyone know where they hide the serial number on these things? I've been all over it can't see it anywhere. As always, any help gratefully received! Cheers now Rich

Just unpacked and assembled mine but as soon as I tighten up the captive nut the chain gets pinched between the sprocket casing and the plastic guide block. It holds it solid! Is my shiny new 201 faulty or what? I've had it apart 3 times and can't see anything wrong.

Cheers you lot. I'm massively impressed - 2 pages in 1 day. Nice one! Looks like a toss up between Stihl 362 and 441 then. I recognise the Husky v Stihl thing but there's a Stihl dealer just up the road plus it says Stihl on my gloves. My hat does have an H on it though. Is that allowed? Thanks again.

Alright kids? I'm just starting out and wanted advice on best all-round chainsaw. Been told that Stihl 441 is a good all rounder but seems a bit big? A few hours swinging one of those about you're gonna feel it. Will obviously need a 200t for climbing work but what d'ya reckon?
