  1. Good time to do a span of blackthorn, waterproof and thornproof, just as well have all the s... in one go!!!

  4. I recognise that pub.....have you posted pictures of it before? Look forward to seeing you tonight Paul.
  5. hey not long now folks. I'm aiming for 6-7ish. Can someone post the address please?
  6. I would forget about kindling and petrol stations for the mean time and sell dumpy bag loads and truck loads. Put an advert in your local rag perhaps. Alot of people wanting logs these days. Once you get going you could then look at kindling and netted logs for petrol stations etc. I imagine you would need a processor for netted logs and kindling to make it financialy viable, where as dumpy and truck loads you can use your splitter and axe. Good luck.
  7. Can I buy a medium please Steve if you still have one available. Could you send me details of how to pay.
  8. The 'fred marvin' poles look the same as the 'jameson' ones. I do prefer to climb around the tree where i can, but occasionaly the poles do come in very handy to reach some awkward branches.
  9. Hey browncow, cool pics mate. Have you climbed the 'gloucester tree' in sw oz.
  10. There is no problem to prune by percentages. if a customer asks you to thin their tree by 25%, whats the problem. we all know what 25% is. You may however not be able to apply to your local authority quoting percentages as some now require measurements.
  11. Thanks for the advice cts, but to be honest its dream viewing really. I will get a mog one day as i have always wanted one, but need the work for it first.
  12. Yeah doing a fair bit for hi-line. Over nr brizzle airport today mate. look forward to seeing you on 15th bud
  13. I would certainly recommend having pl and its probably not as expensive as you think. give trust a call
  14. Driving over the mendips this morn jon and had alittle bit of snow mate
  15. Thanks all. Sounds so obvious now. Great tip AlexM. Yeah, that matador does look like a good project for the right person
  16. When looking for unimogs, matadors or the like on ebay, the search always comes up with related toys, alternaters, books etc etc. Does anybody know if there is a way of narrowing down the search to just the vehicles so I do not have to sift through all the other stuff? Thanks in advance
  17. Glad i tapped in to at tonight. superb pics. I would love the opportunity to use one
  18. Would be interesting to hear anyones thoughts/findings should anyone try one. at just over 4k including vat that is v cheap. i am a believer that you get what you pay for though. i dont understand how it can weigh only 400kg
  19. as omt said, could you have 2 or 3 ropes and wash in washing machine over night. at least you have dryish rope in morn when you start?
  20. Yeah, i did notice that stevep.......about 5 secs after posting:blushing:
  21. good idea to set up a second gang. i wouldnt worry about having to fork off hi-lux loads of chip, will only take 10 or so mins. if it was a transit however....i wouldnt want to handball that off
