  1. I'd say that was quite explainable.
  2. Like I said, on the face of it I've no issue. It's not expensive and I'd be happier using my mix as I use the posh 2 stroke oil. I remember seeing that. Could you post it again?
  3. why do you think that should be? On the face of it I've no issue, for obvious reasons. however it's one moor thing to load in and out of the truck each day. I've enough off a job hauling a climbing kit, 3 saws, tool box, helmet and lunch bag (with first aid kit). It would definitely mean a second trip.
  4. A lot of this can be explained by anyone named Murphy.
  5. I'd be taking it up with the owner. Obviously it's helpful if their saws seized too, otherwise who's to say it wasn't something else. why should a freelancer have to mix and supply their own fuel and oil because a staff member can't do the most basic of jobs?
  6. I've been using the tsurigi 300 straight blade with large teeth for a while. Had the short curved one before that. The sheath is made of aluminium and super secure. Pretty aggressive cut which isn't always best if you're doing fruit tree pruning, but aside from that its a fantastic all rounder.
  7. I get wound up by people who make excuses for their cock ups. Accept you fucked up and move on.
  8. Alongside monkey puzzle and Hawthorne. I don't actually mind conifers too much. If I got pissed off every time I have to work on conifer I'd bust a blood vessel before the week was through
  9. Chestnuts can be sods to prune, so can ash for that matter. I find large fruit trees a pain since there's rarely decent money on them for the time it takes to do a good job. Cant forget topper conifers they haven't been touched in years
  10. fair does, at least you've sorted the weird name colours
  11. Yeah, only issue here is I'm getting multiple posts from the same topic in my activity stream. Is that something I can change in my settings or something at your end?
  12. Sirius 12mm is pretty tough for the money. Should be able to get 50m for £80 or close. From memory its got a breaking strain of well over 3 tonne
  13. all the time. Im incredibly lazy so all my clothes go in. No harm so far
  14. Stools? You're kidding right?
  15. I think you missed that one
  16. Hahaha my mum's side is Irish. That said I'll be damned if I'll take racial digs from a Puerto Rican!
  17. You know me so well darling... Ill sign off now before I find out your next move.
  18. You self indulgent bastard.
  19. All that just to put your name in red? You self indulgent bastard.
