These trainers are: But are you sure this the best setup for converting 22 tons of Oak?

A picture... (ripped of the web). Cheers.

Would you be interested in an Igland 55?

Do you think their 'wood be' more than 20% moisture content then? [note: works best when red out in broad Norfolk accent]

Hi Jon It it the same one we were touting here? http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/general-chat/64903-ref-keep-your-kit-safe-dog-tool-box-one-2.html

Whatever works for you. There certainly is a lot of 'background chatter'. Lots of things go round and round. but ever so often something happens.... http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/members-only/64834-worst-day-my-life.html Which on its own makes the whole thing worthwile IMO

Hi Dave Here is the thread: http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/general-chat/68405-powerline-help.html The map came off Wikipedia I'm afraid. Google for 'DNO wiki' Cheers.

that IMO is one step short of internet bullying, The problem is how all the comments are coming across (whether you intend them to or not) I doubt you have any idea of what may have led up to recent employment decisions, what pressures people are under, or how much sole searching they have done. anyway, in regard to all of this chapter, best of luck to all the lads, but "I'm out".

I wish Chris all the best. He seems a good bloke who just wants his lads to work hard, and enjoy themselves. On the subject of the young lad: Regardless of whether you think he is wrong or right, I don't think it is fair to question his motives on a public forum. Connor joined Arbtalk last September. In all that time he has made a grand total of 5 posts. He doesn't exactly seem to court publicity does he? If you want to make a point to Connor, PM him. If you want to make a point to Chris, PM him. If you want to preach to the world about your opinions on Connor or Chis, maybe you should keep them to yourself. I don't think the lad should feel pressured into 'explaining' himself on here - that IMO is one step short of internet bullying, and there have been some well publicised cases recently of how badly that can end up.

Decline?? Why does it matter if the neighbour gets hay fever or not. Surely the only reason to ask why that want the trees out is to assist with pricing? If you want to do your bit for the planet >> earn a fortune while you are young enough >> buy up a tract of ancient woodland with some decent vet trees in it >> Bang on about ecosystems and rotting leaves and fungal spores and stuff to whoever will listen >> inspire a generation >> die happy. Couple of silver birches......

I thought hornbeam was for making didgeridoos? digerridoos must be the most annoying instruments EVER. ......Except for Violins

Violins are nuffin...... .......could you imagine if she had got herself a violin?

....And here is another from last summer (August). Got a bit of Swedish fire log action going on there as well! Anyway. Enough of that. Back to your fancy kettles

If it were me, I would insert climbing rope using throwbag as seen in green. Having footlocked upto the branch, I would the stand in the forks (red circles) that the previous bloke so kindly left, attached by a lanyard ('green rope' also attached handy for quick exit if necessary) Next would follow some making merry with the topper whilst undertaking some cut and chuck action. Home in time for tea and medals

Think John meant "If it is on wheels there is no problem with the planners if i want to leave it in the woods."

Biscuit Barrel? You are worse than me! I Blew £4.99 on a lighter chimney at Lidls. Bet the barrel does the job
-
Is that a coffee percolator sat on top of a BBQ lighter chimney?
-
Yeeees. Somehow I had the feeling that was the case Cheers.

Christ, I hope you are right. We have been struggling under 'the tyranny of the disturbed bat' for a few years now. The process you describe is similar to the one we follow for nesting birds. Does this mean that bats have no greater level of protection than nesting birds then?

home for bumble bees and earwigs?
