Just had my second pair arrive , had booklet enclosed only this page would aply to us the rest being rubber plastic nonstatic etc etc etc. aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh why when I rotate some pics do they still come out the wrong way round oh well your have to turn ya heads

Spoke to Safety Hut they "have never had any complaints" so no money back discount etc but have ordered some more and they do work.....a word to all if they dont have your size showing on there site ring and ask i found out they dont always show all the sizes if they only have 1 or 2 pairs left in stock, as you are then turning people down Maybe I just work to hard

Wheres that Marc ???

I same problem as OP dont matter what page, chat, etc even did it on this one , when I wanted to go to next page to write this. just thought it was something my side. click "go back button" then click again for next page most of the time it will do it then

Evening Rover fully understand your point , was just asking how others have faired, feed back from some others on here & on FB , theres were doing fine .....and yes about 950m

£21.50 for 1 pair then dropping depending on number you purchase

I did have this in another post but got no answers so re listing again in here watched all the info about the ripeur 2 gloves ummed & arred then got some mid season (jan/feb) wow no more thorns bar the odd 1 through the seam brilliant I thought, only thing have worn through the fingers very quickly (I thought) just under 1/2 a season will need another pair for next/this season, they weren't doing masses of just thorn , just a good old mixed hedging, but they were in use for the remaining of the season 3/4 months. What others getting out of them ?? Think I will get some more

Billy no mates then, no one said hello or if you did you didn't say your were on here

Well all of a sudden there life in this little bit of AT again, almost as though winter is nearing again , I hope we have all made it through the summer and have bookings lined up. Had a duff knee for last 2 months carried on slower than normal & getting through pills like made, desperate to have it sorted in next month awaiting MRI to see what wrong. National contest form returned so maybe see some of you there

Didnt look back through the post but sure Ive said in the past, I start September, mixing the end of summer work and starting hedging couple of days for each. Always finish END of March give or take a week depending what's left to do

very nice Graham

during summer months one of my contracts is grass cutting in a graveyard, all the yrs and all the summers/weather Ive done it, it ALWAYS grows like mad, and I can only put it down to the nutrients in the ground, there is know where else that I cut grows like it

Oh no not just you Stubby, been walking backwards for years:blushing: still not got anywhere just a load of cut grass

Cheers Mark will do just trying to get some figures together, idea of visitors and asking about £££

the title is my 1st question or if anyone wants to make a trip of it. will explain more, but bare with I know nothing of costings/ time scale's etc in your field of work Melplash Hedgelaying and ploughing 28th Sept, were looking for some events/entertainment (normal day start about 9.30 until 3-4pm) looking for a carver that might like to come along and do a bit. After chatting to some carvers at another show early on this year. Still not sure on what is the "normal" set up for carvers at shows. 2nd We cant say how many people would be passing all weather depending (will enquire about numbers, Im normally in contest and busy) 3rd To try and make it good for visitors would 4 x 1/2 hrs carvings be worth it for the carver bit like speed carve rather than 1 would hope you can sell there and then or what ever you think would/will work 4th what would you want, barrier, cover, etc. 5th now the big question how dose the money side of things work out. We all know what committees can be like cant pay, wont pay, will pay X amount , you keep all you make etc you keep all you make just a little donation etc , Im on the sub committee but dont have any financial say

Not sure what I going to do with all winning prizes if we come over to do this hedge lol, all things Ive entered over the last few weeks Im going to need a lock up to store it all at least one of them is a roof rack for landy so can shove a lot up there. like the lottery got to be in it to win it.

Wet again

Each to there own , but there will be a problem cos you bought a westwood t2000
