  1. Thanks MB, just heart breaking. Thanks to mates I'm back working again, but it'll take a while to replace every thing ?

  3. Does anyone know when the new 550xp Mk11 is available ?
  4. Between 2pm and 5pm today 12th March 2019, thieves broke into my house and virtually cleared out all my gear, 3 huskies, Sthil Kombi system, Ropes etc all in all about three and half grand to replace. If you are in business in west suffolk please be aware that we are experiencing a fresh wave of thefts. missing Saws are 540, 550 and my beloved 372. The 540 and 550 are registered in my name on the system so hopefully they might turn up
  5. Due to illness require a freelance climber weekend 1st 2nd and 8th Sept. Contact Rob on 07976 504362
  6. I do sympathise to a certain extent, but surely it's down to the retailer to ensure their courier keeps their custmers informed and not to lie about false delivery claims. As I said earlier, we don't live in the dark ages and a simple txt to explain that they are unable to deliver is far more acceptable than lying !
  7. Tracked it as soon as I arrived home, said that I was delivery number 48 and at around 5.30 it was showing the van being 15 mins away on delivery 46. Never had this trouble with any other courier and in this time of instant communications there is no excuse for leaving a people sitting around waiting. The Depot is 45miles away and I think I've lost enough time and money all ready. It's not just the waste of time it's the deceit and couldn't give a damn attitude that really gets my goat.
  8. Anyone had problems with deliveries by interlink ? I ordered some climbing gear from F R Jones yesterday which was supposed to arrive between 4pm and 5.pm today. Stopped work early and got home by 3.45pm then sat outside in the sun until 7.30 not sign of the blighters. Got a txt at 7.18pm to say no one to sign for the delivery, which is obviously bollo*ks ! This is the second time they've pulled that trick, last year I ordered a Huskie 395 for an urgent job, F R Jones sent it out with interlink for next day delivery actually took a week to arrive and then by another courier! Sadly after using F R Jones for a long time I'm moving my business elsewhere which is a shame, but I can't be doing business with any company that uses such a incompetent and deceitful delivery company!
  9. Shouldn't you be in bed by now ? My mum always said if I wasn't in bed by ten, I should come home :-)
  10. All that‘s missing is a glass of something and a cigar
  11. Don‘t mind the swerve away to dogs lol! Had Rotts for many years, fell in love with them after meeting a friend of mines mum. Her name at the time was Joan Woodgate and it's her Rotts in the original Omen film. She remarried and she now bears the Surname Blackmore. She's trained all sorts of animals for films nd working trials. That was the start with Rotts for me and I haven't been without one since :-)
  12. Love GSDs I've had a few over the years, but not since I realized I was bit allergic to their hair :-( Here is a pic of my gang from the same time as the pic of Graf There is one missing as she has just had a litter of pups. They all got along really well even though both the males were entire,
  13. Thanks for the offer Peter, but if no one wants them I'll log them up. As I said earlier Just thought someone could put them to good use. Looks like a nice set up you have there :-)
  14. Thanks for that info I'll look into it :-)
  15. My Boy Graf, passed away couple of years ago, Always have a Rott or two about. Thanks for the compliment Kev. Bred him myself. By Erros Von Burgthann out of Hanbar Mary's Lass. He was a really fun dog :-)
