  1. Great photos there mate, something different 👍
  2. We put up a few posters in the village and posted ads on the local Facebook sites. I think you are right about going around collecting trees, I will do that next year and just tell everyone to leave their tree out side their house with the donation or better still there must be a way of donating online
  3. Do you use this? Do you get much work for it? Surely you can just search for tenders online
  4. I broke the corner off a paving slab, which I've got to sort tomorrow, while reducing a beech which I was pleased with but could not get any good photos of because of the light and trees behind Rubbish pics, the long branches behind are the tree behind which isn't being reduced
  5. Thanks Steve I'm pleased with mine thank you
  6. I got some at go outdoors they have a good selection
  7. Things sound a bit ruff for you at the moment
  8. Check you drive sprocket, is it worn?
  9. Yes I need a website, I am doing it myself but haven't a clue, it's difficult, time consuming, but going to persevere with it for now. Ask me in a couple of days when I've smashed up my puter with a hammer!!!
  10. Check the feed rollers haven't pushed to one side and eaten into the body
  11. Looks like you could get a bit more on that trailer, it's only half full
  12. I know Simon Brock he still farms across the valley from mum and dads place known him since I was little, I know Rodney and his lot from battledown they used to come sillaging at the farm I used to work on
  13. My dog is black and my missus is blonde, can I trade the blonde wife for your red dog please
  14. Where was the langtree working men's club, must've been before my time
  15. Nope, not against the law, so I shall carry on thanks
  16. Give them a top handle saw to use on the ground, that should do the trick😂
  17. Useful thread this thanks😇
  18. Er, cos you can hold the bit with the other hand when your cutting it? Seriously tho they are more accurate for pruning than a back handled saw. I really don't get what all the fuss is about using them on the ground. If you can't use a topper on the ground safely then should you be using any chain saw at all?
  19. Totally agree with you there, for pruning trees when you are on the ground they are safer than in the tree. No rope to cut, no risk of slipping off a branch. Just as safe as a ground saw when used correctly
  20. I used to play at the green dragon langtree. Torrington league I think.
  21. Big wooden ones! 👍
  22. No they aren't all the same different parts of the country use different shape and size pins. We even played with rubber balls in Devon!
  23. Uh oh! Did they hit a nail in the timber?
  24. Will the draw be on the live chat like last year? I've just bought mine now
  25. My mate re trained from working in an office. He went on a ten week course, got his climbing tickets went to a firm as a trainee he work for three firms for about a year each. To cut a long story short he is now buying the tree business that he works for now, as the owner is retiring. So it is possible to make a good living at it
