  1. Don't think it's available in 3/8th yet
  2. Cats appear to be good at keeping snakes at bay. I wouldn't tolerate a deadly snake in my yard .
  3. My boss sprayed our entire nursery stock , maiden fruit and ornamental trees with herbicide. He had that tested and it turned out to be roundup. If no one comes forward , I will find you a number out. Not at work most of this week
  4. I think you have a busy week ahead Rob.
  5. You can still get copper me thinks
  6. Just bought one for my 560 too , put them both on the same chain
  7. 16 " ordered for my 261. Should be quick..
  8. What flavour snake is that? Impressive mouth size. However I am more concerned about your greens. Something has been eating them.
  9. Last time I did that , you had a chain each (22 yards) and yellow plastic baskets.
  10. Not that log but they do such a good job and a quick hand file afterwards makes them very good (chains).
  11. I have one . They are very good , some plastic parts and a bit overpriced but a good tool. I use a hand held Oregon sharpener too , with stones . Works off the cigar lighter and it's brilliant. Using that and a hand file keeps chains extremely sharp.
  12. That was really well done and a professional crew. I don't watch too many tree killing videos as they are often the same ,but that was really good.
  13. You could always send them to me , I will do them for you.
  14. Aside from perishing fuel lines , this make is very good. I have two. An electric one and this one. Very reliable.
  15. Dig them up after leaf fall and plant directly in nicely tilled soil.
  16. Probably originally a sport that has reverted to original form. Same as Acer Drummondii sometimes goes green again.
  17. Perhaps he has ill health
  18. Blimey , that is good.
  19. Nothing the rectum scale on there?
  20. Does anyone have a drivers door for a defender? Can be beaten up but locks and window need to work.
  21. If you're only growing a few ,steel spade about four foot long ,blade opened out a little ,slide her in 'till she is just under the root system and bounce you're fat arse up and down until she heaves to. If it's small stuff you're growing ,a good lifting slade is very quick ,with practice.

    We don't grow large trees , maidens mostly and a few two year old. All jobs looking after trees tend to be time consuming .
  23. Now that's a man.

    Dying Rowan

    If you catch it early ,you can sometimes take off the infected branch and it will survive . This season has been pretty bad for it. I went to a tree nursery a few weeks ago and they had a lot of it in their Lutescens , and so did we. Your tree sounds like it will succumb. We usually cut the flowers off cotoneaster that we grow to try and prevent it ,Presuming the bacteria gets in through there.
