  1. Here’s a colourful chap-
  2. A theoretical question- when you cut a willow, or such like, tree down and leave it in lengths- sometimes it starts to sprout- Is that wood drying out (seasoning) the same as one that doesn’t sprout? (Especially if the sprouting length is off the ground with no rooting sprouts) discuss
  3. It just felt out of control fast, but i didnt want slow the revs down too much. The fronts felt like it was jumping all over the place. Will the blades cut on tickover? i will have to look into the vibes on the hand.
  4. Has anyone have any experience with the above mower- or one similar? I have just tried to use one- Is it normal for a lot of vibration on the handle bar? do you have to fly around flat out to maintain the bar cutter speed? And therefore bounce all over the place? i can’t see a gear type level or setup. Cheers
  5. Well another day of trying to workout how to deal with it. I have (hopefully) managed to get my name on the list of debt to be paid out- just have to wait while the companies assets are liquidated and they work out "how many pennies to the pound" the debtors are going to get. But I have been warned to expect beer money- not full amount owed. Also it will take at least a year- if not longer..... The silver lining is during my quest to find all the relevant people to contact, I have managed get to provide a few more quotes for more solar parks.
  6. I guess there’s no way to protect myself in the future- even with a written contract
  7. I am looking for some advise or experiences on how to deal with getting a payment from a company that has gone into administration before paying me. I have an outstanding invoice with them. I have no contract, just an email chain of them asking me to quote and me providing the quote, and then a few following up the job. I understand that the company was going to pay- just folded before it did pay. I have got a contact for the administrators. so any words of wisdom on how best to get the payment. cheers
  8. Just wondering what ride on brush cutters people use. The etesia Attila seems the only one that jumps out on google, and I have no doubt that it’s pretty good, but you have to pay a lot for it. i would prefer rotary. thanks
  9. Saw a solo Daf out in flower this afternoon (in wild), along with a few snowdrops (Dorset)
  10. Thanks- Quite funky caterpillar, fairly plain looking moth
  11. Saw this little fella munching away on some prized oak saplings. Any ideas?
  12. Saw it in a solar park in Dorset. Which is now being managed with more thought to bio diversity.
  13. [ATTACH]222111[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]222112[/ATTACH] New ish comers to U.K. Shores I believe.
  14. I am asking on here to try to get a picture of what I should be advising my employer ( maybe should say client). He's an part of an electrical firm that runs the operations and maintenance of a few solar parks. I know they aren't protected, and I can cut, and It would be easier for me to cut them- but are they rare enough to warrant me leaving them to make the overall site a better place....
  15. Hi, I was wondering what people would do when cutting a commercial site (solar panels) and came across all these Should I just cut them, leave them, ask my employer? These are out in the open and could easily be left, but my contract is to cut all the grass in the site. Thanks
  16. How's ghost recon? in the middle of a 4 day download for pc... eek
  17. Is the earth stakes as far away from the building as practically possible? Not sure if this could cause your problems- just what I was advised to do when doing an electric fence.
  18. Quite agree TCD. Douglas is being high pruned, just incase it gets big enough to have any value before it blows over. Only a few more ha's to go. iPhone shot, struggling to cope with low light.
