As Chris says the Aldi ones are very good, excellent reception at all times, bass boost, aux input for Ipod or 2 way radio. Useful also is the built in microphone so you do not have to take them off when someone talks to you and yes the battery cover is a pain! They do keep your ears warm as surround the ears completely.

That's the VOSA Weigh Bridge Station on the A23 Handcross Hill in the middle of the road works, often has either a Euro Artic or sometimes a Fairground Lorry, the type pulling 2 Trailers in it. not seen anyone Arb related in there before. I go past couple of times a week, luckily in a small van.

I have use of 2 Kodiak's 400 and 450, the 450 has just arrived, still on Ebay £2495! bigger tyres, high and low gears agri registered which is useful.

Think the second one has new rear springs and a very corroded chassis, lots of shot blasting and painting required, from the pics looks like the back panel behind the cab has been resprayed unless they polish it every week. Useful trucks all the same.

As Rob says its all relative to the usage, there area approx 2 billion battery electric drills in the world and there average life usage (on paper) is 30 mins....I know all our drills get used more like our chainsaws.

I was thinking of keeping chip munks in it! or at least getting them to buy half a dozen more bunnies.

I had to assemble this for a client, came flat packed in 3 large boxes!

I have just done my Lantra Wood Chipper course today. The Instructor was telling us how he purchased a chipper and within 5 months it had paid for itself, by (1) less trips to the tip with brash and having to pay to dump it (2) selling the wood chip as garden mulch (3) doing more jobs per day etc. I do understand all about business expenses, using Finance as a tool and also about preferring to pay cash for something.... been there done that.

<p>hi Ashley, cant remember about the price, yes a farm in Uckfield, there's a few places advertising workshops and storage about. I am an Estate Gardener / Woodland Management for 3 places in West Sussex, if I need some tree work done as I don't climb I will give you a shout, all the stuff I cut is mostly already on the floor luckily.</p>

<p>Think someone was asking about yards and I recommended them to Jeremy Courtney the land agents where I rent mine from, never mind nice to hear from you Andy</p>

All in a days work down here in Sussex!

Yes as Shane says that's the one, small filling station. When I was working in Theale, Reading, chap who worked with us lived on a Canal boat on the Kennet & Avon, got his red diesel from a boatyard, you might try a boat yard local to you?
