    at the bottom of this page on the Iveco Daily Forums is supposed to be a link to a manual pdf, haven't tried downloading it, as mine is 2006. http://ivecoforums.com/topic/8938138/1/ I did download the Iveco workshop service manual for mine from that site and its has most jobs shown clearly parts I found some are cheaper to the UK from eastern europe, even with carriage. I used auto-recambi.eu edit, the link does work, screenshot below from pdf manual - you get bombarded with ads - can't say how much malware I've now hoovered up too, at your own risk

    I find searching arbtalk old threads much easier with google than the sites' own search a google search 'arbtalk tree disease books' for example yields dozens of results, reading these threads will generate a long list of books, some expensive Try Bob Watson, Trees - their use management cultivation and biology. It's cheap, comprehensive and also lists many of the books mentioned in arbtalk threads in the references section. It has one chapter ' Harmless, helpful and harmful biotic agencies of trees' an intro to pests and diseases. Many specialized books are mentioned in the previous threads e.g "manual of wood decay in trees" by K Weber and C Mattheck and Diagnosis Of Ill-Health In Trees 2nd Edition A similar google search 'arbtalk woodland management books'..... Unless it's an enquiry about a recently published or out of print book, most of the available books have been discussed many times before

    One day the US president will be in silico , artificial intelligence. Let the computers decide - were staring at computer screens all the time anyway, so why not be ruled by one?

    exaggeration - only a mere 22.3% when I checked the bill, we probably need the community centre done out in gold leaf - or the churches whatever can't complain too much - couldn't bear to live in complete anarchy, going back to caveman style in the news - posh totty fed up with 63 yr old Lord shagging around - so does his flat over with pigs blood and garden sprayer, draws penis etc

    yes - have to admire your altruistic work there - every time my council tax bill comes in it has a huge increase in the parish council part of it 30ish% increase this year. I can't be bothered to get involved and have resigned myself to being robbed

    I wouldn't bin em - just stop drip feeding em A nice poem The Gift Outright By Robert Frost The land was ours before we were the land’s. She was our land more than a hundred years Before we were her people. She was ours In Massachusetts, in Virginia, But we were England’s, still colonials, Possessing what we still were unpossessed by, Possessed by what we now no more possessed. Something we were withholding made us weak Until we found out that it was ourselves We were withholding from our land of living, And forthwith found salvation in surrender. Such as we were we gave ourselves outright (The deed of gift was many deeds of war) To the land vaguely realizing westward, But still unstoried, artless, unenhanced, Such as she was, such as she would become.

    What he said but if you start cutting all that lot down the saw will be the least of your worries

    thanks for the heads up - looks good, just ordered off ebay £27.83, ordering books is the easy bit, I'd rather buy a data implant

    if you buy a tape measure you won't have to do CS32 - just stick to trees under 380mm

    looks like there were a lot of infected trees around London - found this post from 10 years ago of a tree David Humphries' team had to monolith to make safe - it looks like Jules is right, the OPs tree is not diseased, even though it looks in trouble https://arbtalk.co.uk/forums/topic/2156-sooty-bark-disease/

    This article talks about long dry summers and sooty bark disease of sycamore, never seen SBD https://www.scotsman.com/future-scotland/tech/britain-s-sycamore-trees-under-threat-from-bark-disease-1-519361

    The thing with removals, collateral damage aside, the end result is the same , homeowner or time served tree man 20 years in. I dont think many homeowners could make a nice job of a crown reduction on a medium or big tree , not all 'tree surgeons' can.

    so there has been a big sign outside the cave saying dangerous in rainy season - the boys ignored it because they were local - now their wages will have to be docked forever to help pay for the rescue

    I'm guessing May's thinking is heavily influenced by her husband - city types think a hard brexit will lose them business to euro financial hubs. The Torys are porky snufflers - happy to use their intelligence to enslave the mongrel retards on a pittance and make them feel grateful that they 'created a job' for them Labour happy to buy benefit claimant votes with government debt and make the workers bleed for their generosity Whatever emerges each generation will find something to moan about

    that would be one of those 'educate the customer' scenarios - I wouldn't have even considered a thin - probably why I'll only ever be a lowly gardener and not an arborist. they can look nice as pollards sometimes the smaller organisms are all too much

    Trees you can diy and may die or kill others, you can diy your own truck brakes without being a trained qualified mechanic and may die or kill others if the brake work is faulty, the only thing you cant risk diy is open heart surgery

    the handle attachment on the 160T was weak - if they haven't fixed it, then supply the saw with a roll of tape

    a future option on the Unimog? http://youtu.be/HrQrJ57J9eE?t=140

    at least gender reassignment isn't on the list - that's a relief, haven't had time to get it booked in yet
