  10. To be fair I don't think you quite grasped my satirical post regarding your location If you require people to assist you in your business it would be helpful if you narrowed down your location Your yard is in ? Your work is carried out in and around ? The more information you provide the better chance you will have of finding the correct candidates I know of good fencing guys from Shrewsbury but they could be 100 miles from you....

  15. If you are cutting far enough away and not going to get a shock or damage the line there is no problem They will not drop the line or shut it down because you are scared of an unknown quantity If it has been cut on the correct spec then there should be zero risk of a problem occurring if you are cutting away from or below the line
  16. If they have cut it to the correct distance away spec there should be no need to turn the power of to do any more work (this is only a brief explanation you should really know about vicinity zones and live zones )

  18. Pay for your first couple of courses then volunteer your services to gain experience I went for an interview a number of years ago and saw the pile of cv's on the desk I ended by saying I will work this Friday for free on trial I started the following Monday and have had regular work there ever since

I have looked everywhere and can't find what I think I have seen Going slightly crazy now !! NOT LIFTING TONGS

I like gildan hoodys they are very hard wearing but basically buy a hoody or sweat on its weight the heavier it is defines how thick / warm /tough it will be I use Sarah's Embroidery - Embroidered clothing - Babywear to workwear in small, medium or large quantities for all my workwear Local to me very good
  22. Today after being let down by the brash dragger ( my cousin !! ) I reduced a rather large leylandii hedge Each time I came out of the hedge I mashed the brash filled 6 bulk bags dragged 30metres to the narrow side gate then lift onto my truck drive 2 miles to the estate then empty the bags onto the recycling pile Hedge reduced and 21 bags later I finished for the day A chipper would not have saved me anything apart from a few miles driving to unload bags Hard days @ work tis good for the soul
