Clements farm at brickenden. Very close to Hertford and free tip for logs and chip.

As per title my 2012 Transit tipper was stolen Wednesday night at 10pm north herts area. Was sign written with Rabley Tree Care on it and a steering lock but obviously that counts for very little. Just thought I'd put it on here to give people a heads up the bastards are about! Van was parked on the road in a quiet cul-de-sac, 3 men seen on camera walking to it at 8pm but spooked by someone walking their dog then back at 10pm and away with it 2 minutes later. Don't expect to see it again so if anyone has a transit for sale let me know!

Never seen this tree species before....what IS it?
Duncan. replied to beefheart's topic in Tree Identification pictures
Is there a cut leaf Alder? Looks a bit Aldery to me. -
Thanks. I did but annoyingly I cancelled that credit card last month so doubt they will help. Will find out though.

Mate just rang me to tell me it's gone bust and their phone lines are down as well so doesn't look good. I'm still waiting for 2 hedge cutter combi attachments I ordered in March. They were part of a bigger order which I received in dribs and drabs over the last couple months.

Saw it at the APF. Looks pretty much the same. Switched some parts colours around like they do with the orange and grey bits. Sorry didn't take a picture. Chap on the stand said they're being made in Japan rather than Sweden. Slightly more power apparently can't remember what the figures were.

I should think it's having confidence in ones own ability to get the job done in time and make everyone money. I have done this. Only a knob wouldn't pay the rate set after proving themselves worthy. And if they don't you will never give them the privilege of learning from a master again!

Timberwolf 125 stress. Control not working
Duncan. replied to Tree cutter's topic in Maintenance help
The rollers shouldn't rotate on tick over. Did you mean that? I had a similar issue where the stress system would kick in but took slightly too long for the rollers to continue feeding wood in and it was down to the sensor being the tiniest bit too far away from the flywheel. It is a very small gap between. -

The 2 wires that bypass the stress system aren't connected are they? They're by the ignition. -
I had the same dilemma earlier in the year as I wanted the 30'' cut. Ended up going with the Husqvarna 522HDR75X. Was very close to taking it back as the throttle response was slow to build it up to full revs. Thought there must be something wrong with it. But persevered and it probably took at least 10 full tanks for it to bed in and run normal but now it's fine. You notice it doesn't have the same power as the Stihl so isn't as good on the bigger stuff but it's okay. Seems slightly better balanced though. Would try an echo next time if Stihl still aren't making the 30'' blades.

I'm the same, try and listen to it a bit but end up just getting annoyed with the idiot presenters on the radio or tv and have to switch it off. Was telling a customer this last week and he replied "That's like the chap who got pissed off with reading how bad smoking is for you all the time. So he stopped reading."

I'm assuming this is sarcasm? Obviously there are cases of rape but surely most abortions come about from consensual sex so where is anyone being forced to do anything? Why should men be forced to have a vasectomy? Women aren't being forced to have babies. They choose to have sex like men but the implications for them are far more serious. I'm not either side of the fence with this issue but when people get on their high horse and put their "male feminist" t-shirt on and start defending what I understood was some sort of legislation that would allow full term pregnancies to be aborted it does wind me up. Surely that is madness.

Surely if it was done at the end of the season there would be no growth on it now?

Not sure if that's what it's actually called but It's where you can see your sent messages and received messages on the same page like a conversation and you can scroll up and down through the conversation rather than go into the inbox and all messages are individually opened. Sorry if that makes no sense.
