    So why didn't you smash a window before you called it in?

    If it is a minor B road you can contact sun traffic, lux or other TM company they will let you know if there is a suitable diversion that could be set up so that the road can be closed. This is not very expensive just sometimes time consuming as you need to speak to the local highways to request the closure. Alternatively the TM company would set up traffic management quite cheaply. If you have chapter 8 you can oversea it ant costs can be as little as 250-300 for a week or manned by them for about £180/day. All you would need to supply them is a Google image of your working area and they will do the rest.

    Will have a look. Getting a bit tired of gearbox probs on the Hondas even on the pro rollers. It does make me think about the tread over the last few days regarding day rates for a grounds maintenance crew compared to that of a surgeons team. I know training comes into it but you can get through a lot on repair bills with even just a few pedestrian mowers!

    I have a dozen Hondas ranging from the 537 hrx, 536hrh, 535hrd, all good mowers. Engine and deck should never let you down. However the drives go for a pastime and are very expensive to fix. Had a few gearboxes on them apart and they are fairly simple so can be fixed yourself. Etesia 51 with Kawasaki engine are also very good and cut well in the wet.

  15. The Jackel
    That's ok I won't be using it!
  16. The Jackel
    Used lots of balau, Ipe and Iroko in past but it is getting very expensive. Looking to use oak or similar. None of these were slippery, so I guess oak would be fine.

    Hi, I am interested to know if anyone on here supplies any hardwoods suitable for decking. I have a showhome to install in a few weeks and I am looking for something a bit different. Cheers Carl

    Off course!! but from experience of having them sat in the yard for a season or containerised for planting the following it is always apparent that the wire has rusted away and the hessian rotted. It is far better IMO that the root ball is not disturbed at all as this can damage any fibrous root that is crucial for the tree to establish. I do think that the picture shown has little or no fibrous root and does not look like it has every been undercut/ root pruned in the time it has been growing in the field.

    Don't disregard the nissan till you have tried one. I have had mine for family of five for last two years. Better value than the disco and has plenty of space. Bought an 06 two years ago on 40000 miles for £9000 far cheaper than the landcruiser and disco option. Had no problems at all with:thumbup:
  22. The Jackel
    I have never touched the root ball, the wire rusts away in a season along with the hessian.
  23. The Jackel
    Your not supposed to remove the wire and hessian it will breakdown over time. As long as there is some fibrous root within the rootball the tree should be fine.

    What about George Carr Bristol?
