    But sir, he started it... That'll ruffle some feathers!

    why just on the books? As a subby my time isn't free? I arrive and leave the yard inside reasonable hours!

    James, could you not have turned around and drove back to base, thereby committing no offense? I'd be challenging that if I were you.

    He also thought about stopping for a few pints and then speeding to make up the time.

    Sounds interesting Tony, what's the strength like? Wine that we buy here seems stronger than a few years ago. When I was in Croatia the owner of the house we used made his own red in his garage, was very light for a red and was served chilled. Really refreshing.

    The Teupen Leo 23 is the one I've used and its pretty impressive. Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    One our the companies I sub to owns a pretty decent mewp so it gets used when its convenient. It's usually down to the climber if it gets used or not. It can make life easier if not quicker sometimes. Recently did a job trimming small shrubs where it was insisted on as the site safety officer wanted proof of "ladder training"! Bizarre.

    I've done practically no stump grinding, but I've used this grinder a couple of times. I wouldn't want to take out a bit tree with it but it was surprisingly capable, without much effort. Fairly easy 2 man lift as well for steps etc. Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    A while ago the company I was working for used to flyer a few houses either side of the clients. They got a fair bit of work from that, especially nice trimming work. Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    thanks for taking the time Alexandr. Good job. Not quite sure what that adjustable zipline redirect accomplished, as if you set up your slings in sequence it has the same effect. Got the job done anyway! I almost didn't watch it because of the click bait title! Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    Just had a look, the basic kombi engine with trimmer comes in at just over £400, around £200 cheaper than the basic 4 mix long reach! Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    Good to know for an employer. Luckily for me, the ambulance chasers wouldn't know where to start with me for modded kit. Just ask@treeman below. Yeah it came in the box mate, but I just put it somewhere and forgot about it. Re: conifers, conveniently I often work with a climber that's a bit long in the tooth for big trees, so he tends to take the connies. Kind of an unspoken agreement but I know he appreciates the arrangement. Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    I want massively fond of the battery mounting bracket, looks like there's potential for that to pop out in dense trees. Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    Sounds like a great opportunity for someone! Wish I was closer! Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    So got mine properly wired in and I'm fairly pleased. The wires are pretty well hidden and I've put 2 layers of heat shrink on the exposed wires to protect them. Massive thanks to Niel and Don for their advice. Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
