  1. When I was a tree officer I defended a holm oak that was causing damage to a garage The pinn s went with me rhe tree stayed I thought it was borderline as the tree could only be glimpsed from a public place and neighbour wrote in favour of felling Pinn and a lot of arborists these days are tree hungers want to save everything
  2. Shane not sure if I read your post right as I have had a hard day milling and now into the whiskey bottle But when was pulled by traffic cops and escorted to local weigh bridge the axle weights are the max however the cops have a 10 percent descreation on not prosecute ing but can't let let u continue on the road This is my experience Hope it helps
  3. I registard a rb44 as 3.495 tons as that's what she weighed So your can drive her on a post 97 licence but u would not be able to carry a load but you could tow up to 2.2 ton U would need to buy a unregistered rb to do this I have a few of them so I was just playing with Dvla instead of them f-ck ing with me
  4. Brave post Fortune favours the brave Shoots straight stay alive
  5. Wondered when she would go l wood and I looked at her a few times
  6. I got stopped a few years ago with 43 wet turfs a 066 a 044 and a few cans of fuel I was 10percent overloaded on front axle as carting 2 staff and myself This was in my 3 .5 iveco I sold the truck and a bought a rb44 6 tonner I don't stress now I was always overloaded and now rarely People just don't understand the weights you can legally carry per axle They also don't understand the important of the right ply tyres
  7. Fair comment j but tree health is not an issue in a notice But the timing if your intrested in long term tree retention or not is paramount. Always good to read your thoughts Shoot straight stay alive
  8. Date of your letter the original one U could argue that no notice is required as repeat works Ie they sanctioned it before was not an issue then should not be an issue now but be mindfull if other trees have been removed in the area making your tree more visible or having more amenity Shoot straight stay alive
  9. Personally I prefer planners who no nothing about trees and admit it At least you can point them in the right direction. It's the no it all lot and ones that bow to the ill informed consulted that cost me time and money Fair play to her for getting involved with the purges in local government planners may decide to do the tree assessment themselves cut out tree officers hold on to their jobs Shoot straight stay alive
  10. It's always annoyed me that we have to 211 notice but the l p a don't joke really with some of the work they do Either to little wasting our money working to bs3998 instead of getting on with the job to a cost benifit Or dropping trees with visual amenity cause of a highway issue Shoot straight stay alive

    TPO and law

    Will be assessed via comments from so called public Government guidance means nothing they can apply a tpo its their job You challenge it via a high court challenge lots of paperwork lots of ag lots of money Better off cutting or pruning it hard then let them chase u and u argue it could not be seen from a public place Shoot straight stay alive
  13. Where in Bristol are you How old are you and do you drive You got a regular woman or should I say partner in this day an age Pm your number but post your reply as there the things that are important to me with hired help Shoot straight stay alive
  14. Eat a banana before a big job high in potassium Works for me I get cramp under chin from clenchen my jaw when working Shoot straight stay alive
  15. Council can fast track the 211 notice Or erect the scaffold then prune back any actionable Nusance This would have been sanctioned if planning permission was required / granted for repairs to roof ie access faccilation pruning
