  1. Used the telegraphs predictor. World Cup 2014: Wallchart Predictor Game - Telegraph Chile v Germany (semi) Mexico v Argentina (semi) Chile beating Argentina in the final and Germany getting the third place.
  2. Woodchuck quad arrived at the end of the day, great surprise after a hard days work. Thanks for the wedges Rob, I have now rescheduled my day tomorrow to play with the new toy. It's well built and alot lighter than I expected.
  3. Gnome

    Petzl sequoia

    There's a small card on it for sure. Not got it on me at the moment for exact location but it was one of the first things I checked for. Double check your LOLER man hasn't got the surname Wonder. When I got my full harness checked I had to show our LOLER man where the information panel was. So much for a thorough inspection from a qualified technician. Bit worrying but I double check everything once he has finished with them.
  4. Just ordered the woodchuck quad Rob, hope I can get the wedges as well?
  5. 27m do I get a prize?
  6. Modern Arboriculture £55.00 - Arboriculture and Trees - Arboriculture Books on botany from Summerfield Books Got quite a few books from them now.
  7. Some amount of work in that Dave. Did you use a scaffold or are you cherry picking them these days. As usual given me a few good ideas there. The second last picture does look like a big willy though
  8. I once saw a chap get fired straight away for kicking a seagull which had just done it's business on his car at lunch break. But they were company toe caps. I hope it wasn't a saw you used to despatch it as that would have caused more downtime cleaning it. In the 3 months have you not had any professional advice on the matter? Seems a bit harsh if it was injured.
  9. Oh that's better, much better. I like your styling mate. The eagle is very nice.
  10. Attachments not working for me dude.
  11. Road Tax for cyclists,horses,runners, dog walkers. If they use the road they should pay. That way we might get rid of some of the potholes. The bikes that they sit low down in and bikes with trailers carrying offspring should be banned. No helmet should mean prosecution. We have to wear seatbelts. Anymore than 3 cyclists and they should get an asbo.
  12. Drain rods > something nasty > couple of days checking that i've not grown an extra finger.
  13. Could you not get a mate with a van who can drop you off and pick you up in a particular area David? Kind of car sharing type of thing. You pay for his fuel. It would get you started. Definitely need to get some kind of job to get the ball rolling. Every day without cash is going to slow you down and push your plans further away. When I was wanting to drive I worked dayshift and twilight shift each day in spirit crushing factories. that was 8am till 10pm doing the same thing 180 times an hour. When overtime/shifts were offered I took them. Didn't matter what was happening outside work, that's all I focused on. Eat, sleep, work and occasionally breathed. Passed and set the next target. For YOU to get to your goal you need cash. Do whatever it takes.
  14. Saw that on yahoo pics yesterday. Now do you use a ladder to access it?
  15. If you are kicked off a site,loosing work then £350 aprox is pretty cheap IMO
  16. Exactly Jim. great for wee stuff.
  17. Gnome

    Rotten Lime

    Stunt felling
  18. Consistantly meat and 2 veg
  19. 11.20pm in Scotland due to referendum debate. Think I might just watch it on iplayer. bit late on a school night.
  20. Well done that man....good stuff
  21. This is what I got recently as a basic climbing kit David Petzl Sequoia Harness New version Yale XTC Fire 37m climbing rope Yale XTC+ 1.5m Split Tail rope Stein Cambium Saver Steel Rings Harkie Orange Karabiner Gustharts Adjustable Lanyard Kit Hope that helps and any comments,questions appreciated I'd say that is pretty basic. PPE is a Petzl Vertex Vent Helmet and Oregon Waipoua type c trousers and boots. And a personal First aid kit, whistle and knife.
  22. Well that's what I call service. I hope she got a tip for that.
  23. Got it, liked it, don't have time to use it at the moment. There's a couple of threads on it.
  24. I think his vids are great, very humble chap and some of the knowledge may come in handy if your stuck for tools. He would be a good neighbour to have. Like the pistol in the back as well!!
  25. Good News David, was wondering as well how you were doing.
