  1. sorry, thought i was pm'ing you!!

  2. Hey paul, hope all is well. Are you up for coming down to Dorset on 06-10-12. Got a nice easy day lined up at a beautiful country manor type place, couple of nice little jobs. The local pub there is great and a couple of tree mates of mine live just around the corner. He carves these most amazing sculptures i'd love you to see (real quality). I have looked at train times and there is one that leaves waterloo at 0710 (imagine you can pick that up on route somewhere) and arrives at gillingham, dorset at 0916 where i can pick you up. How does that sound?

  3. If you like climbing but not too high, i see you have ua tickets and line clearance you regulary don't go above 30-40'.
  4. I agreed with stephen blair's post, nothing wrong with that
  5. A mate of mine has just bought a load, 'FE11 CUT', 'FE11 ASH', 'FE11 YEW' etc etc.
  6. I have 2 ropes always, 1 long and 1 short. I always use the short one whenever possible
  7. At the dorset steam fair i bought some rigger gloves with thinsulate lining, they're made in germany. 3 pairs for a tenner, yet to try them though.
  8. hope its got nothing to do with those boots silky?
  9. he only stopped driving once he got over the white line, the winners line! not worried about his mates well being, the ****
  10. you can tow more than 750kg with a 7.5 tonner with the correct licence.
  11. Hi MattyF, I had this dilemma about 4 years ago so got both on demo on the same site chipping the same stuff. The 220 absolutely wiped the floor of the 190 and gave me one of the easiest decisions of my life. I still have the 220 now and it has served me better than any chipper I have owned........The 220 blades are far larger than the 190's. On the tw150 the blades are off set on the flywheel so you only get 1 cut per rotation and I think this is the same with the 190 whereas on the 220 you get 2 cuts per rotation with your much larger blades. Also the tw flywheel bearing is like a washing machine bearing in comparison. You will not be dissapointed with the schliesing!! and no, i'm not a schliesing salesman.

  16. On some unbraked trailer models there is a non breakable chain that connects to the truck.... I don't know the law on this but they do come like this from the manufacturer.
