  1. That's what I thought..... What causes that?
  2. Came across this today on a laurel hedge we regularly maintain. Yellow leaves and a strange 'stipple' on the underside of the lower branches? I haven't come across this before and was wondering if anyone knew what it was and whether it's terminal Cheers
  3. We use the bt intercoms and have had them for 3 months. They're awesome! You can have them as intercoms, multiple paired, or bluetooth to a phone. Battery lasts all day, then charge in the truck. Only issue do far is water in the mic on a rainy day, but soon dried out. Really handy piece of kit & really safe to have comms Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

  10. Had to remove some heavy limbs over a dog poo infested garden There was a small paved area that was clear of poo, so managed to tip lower the tips into that area....happy groundsman... So how the hell am I going to remove the heavy logs as I didn't want to have to snatch the whole limb??...gggggrrrr. There was a 12 ft trampoline with high sides nearby, but about 20ft below.. The owner came out and sai I could throw the logs on that as he was getting rid of it anyway... (Result!) Honestly this is the funniest thing you have ever seen with all logs bouncing about 10ft or so high. Lol I reckon it would be a viable way to load a transit Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
