  1. Doing a 200km cycle, Minehead down to teignmouth and back. Left at 4am, 2c° couldn't feel my hands, very uncomfortable, stopped in a garage for coffee. Profusely sweating while the hands are slowly coming back and then I will carry on my way. Got to be back in time to pick the kids up from school!😬

  3. Munro Vehicles Home https://share.google/pkLAvEdTix5xGkCya Although when I first heard about it I was sure they had a combustion engine option.

  5. Is it just covered in rubber? I do think all all the boots are bloody overpriced. Β£150 would be more like it, especially as they only last a year!
  6. I used to use haix. Got supplied some.blue mountains and the tongue somehow became packed with sawdust. So I moved over to the airstreams dreamy... Well untill they changed the soles. Then the chops, Andrew's and now zambrlans. Zambies have no foam part so that can't fail, I need the next size up.
  7. Sounds damp out there, going back to the other end of the farm to have a nibble at this hedgelaying, bit tricky last time as I am having to dismantle the far side of the hedge as it is over a road, not to mention the field is 10ft higher than said road, certainly done easier tree dismantles. Probably take the 150, Stihl not timberwolf, not sure the timberwolf would be quite so useful in that situation, up to make things easier.
  8. I just give the customer options that I am willing to carry out. If they come up with a naff idea I just steer them away to something that is going to work for me. The hedge, chip in the truck and take it away somewhere unless they are desperate to keep it. Even so, if you cant get it somewhere useful let him know you top at his in the summer when it is dry and you can get the chip somewhere useful.
  9. Kram, if you have quoted 3 men on the hedge an you think it's doable just stick to your guns. As for the disagreement about the arisings of the tree takedown. You need to make sure you write in your quote exactly what you are planning to do with them as I have had this before. Customer then quibbles and if it was verbal then you are on very rocky ground as they can just say 'that was not my understanding'. So clearly and concisely written quote can save trouble further down the line. Obviously only relevent in those few cases where you have those customers who just don't do as they are told and just get their wallet out. If he wants you to get in and sort that brash out then some boards on the ground is your answer.

  12. If you arrived to me and my motor was unfixable and your tablet didn't give you the option of booking recovery, but customer has it on policy, would you phone in or is it policy to get them to phone the office and leave them to it.

  14. You can test for that by switching the plugs around, if it works rollers reverse fine then you found your culprit as you have eliminated everything else in the forward circuit, one for next time.
