    I'd snap an arm and a leg off for that. At the moment I work delivering for Asda and then 2 mornings a week and my day off tree work.. pays a bit worse than Asda but job satisfaction is wayyy more important for me. Hate working for a bunch of corporate muppets

    I was led to believe this before I got my CS30/31... first person I worked for soon brought me back down to earth... some people do get really lucky though

    I use 2 stroke in my car, if you buy it in bulk it's quite cheap. Or something like Millers Diesel additive. I used 150ml 2 stroke for 30l of diesel, quietened the car down loads and I was getting a noticeable improvement on MPG

    The Newer Ford Ranger (06 onwards) are ment to be really good on juice and can be cheap if you get them at the right time of year.

    Mines doing that bud, only when I have let it run out of juice. I prefer it over most of the Stihls that I have used, revs hard and chomps away at wood fast enough for me

    I did my first one the other day to.... such a feeling when the cracking starts and then it goes

    Going away for 9 months! Do i do my CS38 now or when I get back? I am uncertain as I'll need to practice so I can do my 39 won't I?

    Unfortunatly not, going back out in June I reckon then hopefully stay out till May the following year, come back to do some tickets if I have the cash. It's so easy to get sucked into staying though, life is too good

    Has anyone on here done one? I have a bit of a thing for Canada and have always wanted to go. Wondering how I'd go about it? Cause it's more logging orientated over there isn't?
