  1. Very nice silkster...I will wait till Arb Show and see what deals I can get,bout time dipped my toe into battery saw technology.
  2. Nice posh set up Jake,did you put the 2 petzl swivels on your? Do you use a Zizi Zag? If so it already has and inbuilt swivel...I do like the micro swivels they do now though such great engineering on climbing gear now.all looks very nice?
  3. Thanks Chrissy...I did try to get my new dog weaver in who was in the first lot I took before Xmas...but he was coverd in mud and would have made a right mess.??
  4. Yep and still learning...I will miss the climbing when I stop but still able to do what I need to thank to all the great gear there is a round now days..love the landscaping though.
  5. Cheers AJ,been landscaping since I was 19 so 38 yrs and on the trees for around 25yrs...my first love is garden design which I have a degree but not so much design work now I just do may be 3 or 4 landscaping projects a year as mainly trees but sometime i have the opportunity to combine the 2 and this was a little job at a cottage we’re the Blue Engineering Bricks and the Old Town Bricks were left over from an extension that they had built so I told them I had a idea to use them and they went for it,sometimes the simplest jobs always work out better then the over complicating ones.?
  6. Thank you silkster and happy New Year to you and yours also,Double catch up this year Arb Show & APF.????
  7. Hi all and happy new year to everyone,just a couple of photographs of the small clearance job I did before Xmas where I found an old rockery. had a chat with the client and came up with a solution and here is what I did,nice and simple but really affective.
  8. Fab photographs and always a wonder and amazing how big and majestic those trees are,my aunty and uncle live in goose bay,my uncle was a lumberjack for all his life till his back gave out and sadly no longer with us,the amount of times I was asked to go over and visit and sadly I never did or have,think on my bucket list before to late for me.thnks for post pictures.
  9. Hi jack yep xmas very over rated now and not celebrated for what it’s meant to be anymore...if it wasn’t or my grand daughter I would very gladly just not bother with it,but like you say other people love it all and that’s fine.
  10. Afternoon all and hope you have all had a fab and restful Xmas so far,anyway after about 5 hours of trying and yes it had to be done,I managed to get this photograph of Weaver.best I could do as the antlers are now in pieces. Anyway here’s a happy Xmas and a great new year from myself and Weaver.
  11. Ha Ha...won’t matter everyone is normally off there face anyway and not always because of drink.????
  12. And Xmas wishes to you gand and hope the family are all well and your new job going ok?
  13. I can see a little get together round a camp fire at the APF happening with yourself and stubby giving a duet??
  14. Right...it’s a very posh MEWP...awesome piece of kit and great idea hiring it out and totally agree with you Ref get off the ropes when you can...hopefully your feeling 100% better soon and enjoy the rest if your Xmas and rest time.
  15. Hi Ian please excuse my ignorance but what is a Multitel SMX250?. hope you have had a good day doing nothing unless you helped prepare the Xmas dinner of course.
  16. Hi Steve Happy xmas too you too my friend,at least it wasn’t your Xmas dinner what made you I’ll,nothing worse then feeling crap on a special day when there is so much to do,hope your feeling more with by tomorrow.?

  19. Hi Graham and pleased to finally call you by your real name,the book is fab just wish there were some pages were I could use my crayons to colour in?
  20. Thank you Gary yes they don’t stay pups for long but I must admit he has grown and filled out so quick and he knows what it’s all about and he is such a good dog on the lead and naturally working without much prompting. The food i’am using is Skinners field and trial puppy food supplemented with chicken/Cod liver oil capsules and Skinners field and trial Muesli.
  21. Here you go Gary & Stubby I was out with him 5.30 this morning,been out to do the rounds taking presents etc,this is Weaver 5mins ago with his favourite 2 Toys.
  22. Hi TVI(need to know your real name?) thank you for your reply not sure there was any religious underpinnings and if there was I didn’t realise it...you frighten me with your intellect( and that’s not being funny in anyway) you are such a word smith and your post are very well written it always goes above me as i’am thick as shite.?
  23. Hi Gary Weaver coming on really well he no longer looks like a pup he has grown so quickly and is filling out already,will post some recent more upto date photographs of him soon.
  24. Just wishing everyone who visits Arbtalk as a regular or just now again a very happy Xmas ?and a fab New Year and don’t forget 2020 is APF year so a god catch up for everyone.?
