  1. Is it the one for sale in the outer Hebradies and your selling it for a mate?
  2. Makes a change to have a thread where hornbeam might be the right answer
  3. Lay off it Barry you know it makes no difference how you pay
  4. Would love to talk it up but the reality is it's dead for us at the moment. Two deliveries since Christmas and none in the calendar. I know it's warm but surprised it's this quiet with amount of stoves being instaled. Still pleny of winter left though. If it doesn't all sell it leaves less prep work for next year.
  5. Top bit of joinery there Stompy. Realy like the drip detailing; very neat.
  6. Looking to up charcoal production this year but would realy like to source some cheaper bags than the Selway ones. Doesn't have to be a bag. Saw one chap on here using some very nice boxes but suspect they cost more than bags. Any leads to supliers? Thanks
  7. Steady on chaps. I read it that Logs and Stuff runs a legitimate business and is rightly bothered by those that he suspects don't; undercutting him. Tax Dodging hurts all of us that don't dodge tax. Can't say I would go as far as grassing someone up but maybe we should as a civic duty. Placeing tin hat on and runing for cover.
  8. Heavy rain for a lot of the night. Had 20mm so far and still heaving it down.
  9. Nice to see a processor for big butts that makes salable sized logs The had one at the APF but did not see a demo.
  10. Bit slow Paul. Broke the processor just before Christmas but Riko have parts winging their way to me as I type. Been working on the hedge again today but weather was a lot kinder than on your visit. Liking your current Avatar
  11. Pretty nice down here today but T shirts might have been a bit brave
  12. 2014 confirmed as UK's warmest year on record - Met Office Along with low oil prices. Not surprising the phone as been a bit quiet.
  13. Sound good Jim. Let us know how you get on. I did have a quick chat with Roger Young today. They could do the modification but it would invalidate the warranty on all parts affected by the mod. Their view was use it how you like and if torque wind up breaks anything you would be covered by the 5 year warranty.
  14. Thanks Phil Sadly not anywhere near 75K turnover.
  15. A quick google brought up this http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/arb-trucks/72776-pimping-my-ride.html
  16. Did you find a good way to reinforce yours? I have had the same problem but with a different cause. Just ordered a new table from Riko but would be good to get it strengthened from the off.
  17. Ah so there is a system for using it for domestic use having put it 100% through the business. Thanks Steve
  18. What I want to get around is not be able to claim any VAT back on a truck which will be used 90% for work. I am not VAT registered at the moment but as I understand it if I become VAT registered I can claim VAT back on purchases made over the last 5 years. Not getting 4k back on the truck might be the clincher for not becoming VAT registered.
  19. I am not VAT registered yet but looking into it. I want to be able to use the truck for a small amount of domestic use but my book keeper thinks I can't claim any of the VAT back even though I only want to use the truck for domestic stuff for 10% of it's miles. Is there a way around this? He just said most folks claim all the VAT and don't declare any domestic use. Any thoughts?
  20. If you click on the CC logo at the bottom of the screen you get subtitles
  21. Would have thought it's pretty hard to run a large logs business with delivery being such a major cost. We are in a small rural area so unless we get a good percentage of all logs sales we either stay small or charge a lot for distance deliveries. If you are in a densely populated area you may have the customers but probably have very high business rates and rent. Can see it works when you are delivery by pallet and can charge premium prices.
  22. Hard to argue with that. Best Holiday of my life walking in Glencoe and then Sky. Hope I have got my geography right with these two pics on or around Bidean Nam Bean. Went along the ridge and came down the lost valley. The pictures don't do it justice
  23. Surprised you are having problems with a Woodwarm. I have used a fair few stoves and the Woodwarms seem to be one of the best. If not staying in I suspect you have an air leak somewhere. Is the top seated properly? They just lift clean off resting on rope seal which may need changing. Also look at the door seal but these seem to last an age.
  24. As above. If you have one with the grate your fine as they made as dual fuel. It's the Woodwarm Wildwood's that are wood only.
  25. Love the irony of a thread where it's mentioned that warm weather is affecting log sales others are all keen for low oil prices. Burn oil Release Carbon Warm weather No log sales Global warming anyone?
