    You're all fools! It's quite obviously a GM sheep growing from stem cells left in the crack by the evil scientist who used to live there and use the cellar as his lab. It's probably flesh eating and carrying Ebola Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    I'd rather cut the ivy back about 20' (top down) but to be totally honest the owner would probably fell if he knew fox hung out there !!( doesn't know or care that he has good specimen of a now uncommon native tree) Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Would be nice to be able to have a single grab that you could handle quality timber and then add screw when dealing with rougher material, presume you can't get the pressure to use one on a forwarding trailer? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Fingerless cycling gloves from halfords for climbing, pfanner reds or similar on ground. Tried arbortech for climbing but might as well have used vaseline Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    I had to go VAT reg retrospectively (18 mths) 1k fine and had to find 16k fast. Fortunately I had done a lot of work for a big estate and a couple of larger organisations who I had a good relationship with and went back through invoices with them but I was left with 6k of VAT from log sales and private work so I paid that from money meant for income tax with the intention of taxing myself double for the next year. Then had double prolapsed discs in back (dosed up on morphine on floor for 6mths until op) and guys who sub for me held it together til I was functional again. Took along time to get out of the hole and it showed me how not bein on top of paperwork can **** you up! There was an initial slump in domestic work with having to add VAT but a few years on its picked up again and it has its advantages. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Think there was another thread about this on here a while back and, at the time, there was a Range Rover with a big crane on eBay that was posted. But what about this ? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Saw similar done to a mulberry, the gardener doing it told me it was because he'd spent years trying to use ground suckers but they would never fruit, also said the usual way do I was to cut an 'arm' (18" long & 3" d) off the main tree, trim it and plant it in wet soil but he'd lost a couple this way so got them to aerial root in a pot first!

    I can't fault husky or my dealer, we had lots of probes with 4 early 550s and only 1 of the 560s,this included repairs done for nowt long after warranty ran out. My newest 560 just over a year has been no problem apart from snapped a couple of springs which I put down to chain brake activated inadvertently (by branches) at hi revs while snedding conifer. One of the reasons I went over to mainly husky was because stihls service was ****. I am considering an 880 though[emoji15] Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
