Pay peanuts - get monkeys! OSM's observations about outsourcing then outsourcing again (with every non contributing shiny ass taking a slice of the cake for adding no value) is where the money is going.

Nothing to disagree with there sick note. The opposition to certain field ‘sports’ is not a season ticket to the Socialist Vegan Convention. It’s just a recognition that some elements of ‘country pursuits’ may be considered, genuinely, more justifiable than others.

A (not uncommon) frequently deployed sweeping generalisation. True enough, there will be some of that bent, but there is no shortage of rural dwelling country folk with SG & FAC that certainly don’t fit that mould J.

5 years record keeping for HMRC, don’t see why it would be unreasonable to do same (site notes / photo’s / final report) for tree inspections. Even if the person moves on, the records should be retained.

WEAK POINTS AND STRONG You may advance and be absolutely irresistible, if you make for the enemy's weak points; you may retire and be safe from pursuit if your movements are more rapid than those of the enemy.

Hope your self induced suffering is severe and long lasting Mr C! ? That’ll learn ya ? The solution to struggling hill farmers is not fox hunting. That’s just bonkers. Hill farmers struggle because it’s an inherently unprofitable, inhospitable, financially and ecologically unsustainable hobby masquerading as a commercial venture. As if that wasn’t obvious enough, the wholly inappropriate nature of farm subsidy being paid to the land owner - often NOT the poor hard working hands on farmer - the market dominance of supermarket buyers and imports from (literally) the other side of the planet all contribute in a far more significant threat to the lack of viability of hill farming. Forget all that though, a fox taking 1 ewe/lamb is a much easier concept to grasp AND (for some) provides an easy example justification for a sport / pass-time which is otherwise wholly indefensible, repugnant and illegal. But apart from that..... ?

(Enlightened) bastards if you will Mr C. Take the vaccine, all will be well....

Put another log on, relax, drift away into your comfy place. You may feel a small prick. But when you wake up you’ll be ‘adjusted’ to the new reality. Just give in, all will be well after the meds....

PS - I still stand by my earlier caravan suggestion!

What I draw from your last post is: (a) totally appreciate your position - not ‘big’ enough to get sucked in and jeopardise other work. but (b) iffum yome already doing work (assumed therefore to be a professional, reputable, reliable sort) why would the LA question your ability to provide a suitable mutual outcome. (It’s late it’s Friday night and I’m a couple of glasses in but I don’t mean that to sound critical of you, it’s meant to be critical of the LA.) Hope that makes sense. I might be able to phrase it differently tomorrow ?

Domino’s The Lake District National Park Authority have suspended the Blencathra Foxhounds.

No money for ‘output’ but 6 figure salaried LA CEOs aplenty.... Yeah, tell me again why ‘there’s no money?’

That’s the genuine crux of the problem Paul and the basis of what I see as legitimate questions and contributions over the 100s of posts in several threads. I totally understand and appreciate the liaison that AA has entered into with the obviously immovable object that is HSE just as I recognise that corporate business and AA members (through the terms of their membership) are obliged to dutifully toe the line. And, thinking back to some of your previous posts about HSE determined implementation, it leaves the question, was there no one at AA that didn’t agree (or was willing) to ‘just say no?’ We still come back to the perception that this could be an office decision with unforeseen real world implications. We are where we are is an often used phrase to avoid detailed examination of how we got where we were going and I guess (sadly) this will only be fully resolved if/when an accident which may be deemed as non-compliant results in an attempted HSE prosecution. Whoever ends up in the dock if that happens would be wise to have a copy of the 100s of coal face comments, observations and questions in relation to this subject as part of their defence. What a turn out for events if it were determined that directed implementation of regulations was found to be a contributory factor in a future accident. Not wishing that to be the case but it might finally change the ‘we are where we are’ to ‘how the hell did this happen?’

You carry on with your pseudo Victorian trophy hunting penis enlargement Mr C! Dont you worry about anything now, just nod off beside the fire and everything will be just fine.... +note to C19 vaccine HQ - bump Cropper onto the high priority list for vaccine nano chip tracking and DNA ‘adjustment.’ (Double dose required for particularly troublesome comrade.

Thanks Paul. Trouble is, doesn’t really add cred 23 fall fro height incidents - so that’s everything from 4th rung on the hedge cutting ladder to falling off the tailgate of the PU. The question is, how many rope failure / cut or TiP incidents are there that would justify such a change. It still ‘looks’ like the answer is being made to fit the question. It’s not meant as giving you stick, you are a much valued and respected info source.

I think that might actually be a noted ‘first!’ First time I could genuinely find myself in admiration of an SNP policy ? If Brexit results in a revisit of CAP we might actually see some environmental benefits too.

That’s the monkey! SBR & cement powder mixed to a wet slurry & painted onto underside just before they go down. Are you saying you put SBR in the bedding mix?

It might be easier to swallow if the “HSE eyes only” supporting data (and associated assumption of figures higher than those reported) was actually laid open in support of the justification case. I’m desperate to want to believe there’s a genuine and logical justification but still coming up short for the time being.... Kev.... “staying tuned” ?
