  1. All the best to you! I bet that was a shock when you got your glove off!! I think I'd rather the bar on the chainsaw got pinched!
  2. Was getting concerned seeing everybody sales starting and not mine however I've started one 5 cube out tomorrow.
  3. Nissan GTR sweet!
  4. Has the logs sales started earlier the usual? Only my second year did about 40 cube last year got 100 cube this year wouldn't mind getting started!
  5. Jesus! That's a serious amount of timber!
  6. Possibly, however a bit more info needed? Is this standing timber?
  7. Keep looking foe those cheep waste disposals, there are two near me £25 for my lwb transit full, and I mean full! Personally a can't justify buying a chipper!!
  8. Logs for this winter, hoping for a cold one!
  9. Aup Sam, I decent platform ladder always helps for those higher hedges!
  10. I don't know what to say, totally gutted for you!
  11. Many people have to juggle child care with business, you just need to work harder while you on the job! I wouldn't discuss hours with customers because if you get finished sooner they are looking for some money back.
  12. They do look good scissors though!
  13. It's nice to get rid of those jelly legs! Don't get complacent though! Nice one:thumbup:
  14. That did cross my mind! Maybe they think it will not be sustainable!
  15. Likewise what a joy to work with Indian stone, not too heavy and even better if it's calibrated to the same thickness:thumbup:
  16. Following a conversation with my local stove installer he informed me that from 2016 new homes will no longer be supplied with a gas main, I didn't believe it until further research which it appears to be true! Good news for all us firewood suppliers Gas to be banned in new houses in UK | Current Events | Fun Trivia Community Forums
  17.

  18. Just finished this one! [/ATTACH]
  19. Timber frame is the way to do it, level it off and fill with hardcore then compact with wacker plate leaving half inch on top of the hardcore screed over the top with river sand using the timber frame to level, lay the grass and screw down to timber frame and finally brush in some kiln dried sand to lift the pile and to weigh down in the middle. Job done!
  20. IC Trees, that will be the case I don't no anybody, around me selling a cube for £60:001_smile:
  21. Aup all, I'm another at £90 a cube, I would lose sales if I were to put prices up much more, however it all depends on how much you are paying for your wood! Personally I won't pay more than £30 a tonne. However if everybody were to put their prices up we all would benefit, but business always means somebody prepared to under cut.
  22. Aup all, in previous years I have suffered bad with hay fever and never found anything that worked until last year when I used the piriton nasal spray, which I found fantastic! However this year so far I'm fine maybe I've beat it:confused1:
  23. Yep! Hauling out last to loads tomorrow
