Evening all, We have finally got to the point were we require an digger to enable us to continue to grow the business, we have various contracts with local authorities and also carry out rail work so a digger is the next logical step. I have been looking at a volvo ecr25d looking for pros and cons or people's thoughts on other diggers/makes looking to purchase a new unit then adapt to our needs. Many thanks

Bit of a head scratcher, Got an ash to take down in a garden homeowner states deeds say the tree has tpo on it but looking on the councils online tpo map the tree isn't plotted and thus no tpo order but an application was made on the tree in 2009 which was for pruning and was refused. Rung the planning department they have confirmed same as me, that the tree's not plotted but it does have history but can not find tpo order. My feeling would be take photos of said tree and then remove the planning department wants me to email the tree officer to gain some clarification but if I do is this then is it going to alert the tree officer to the mistake? Looking for other people's opinions

Looking to do some advertising to bring some more domestic work in. We used to do mostly domestic work which then led us to local authority and mostly commercial clients whilst retaining some regular domestic work, we used to use Yell, local letter box mags, add words, website and facebook basically we would be starting over with the advertising in are area. What do people use and find works best dont mind spending money on something that will bring the enquiries in. Many thanks.
