  1. Pm sent Hodge
  2. Does the temp gauge work? If so keep an eye it. It should be fine so long as the fan works. Also maybe check how clean the Radiator fins are. U could give it a blow out or pressure wash it. Also check the coolant. Hodge
  3. No problem. I have been with them for 10 years, I have everything insured through them. Hodge
  4. Call Cameron at Trust, they will sort you out no problem. 01604 492644 Hodge
  5. For some people I don't think its a case of working part time its a case of doing the work they have booked in, last week I did 3 days, this week I have 3 days, then I have a large job of 7 days then I have 3 days booked. This time of year is always poor for me, I look at my bookings for the last 10 years and May to September it drops off the from September it goes silly. Hodge
  6. Agreed, can't se it though. Hodge
  7. Nearly. Liver pools problem was they thought they won it when they beat us with 4 games to go mate. Anyway at least we both finished above utd:) Hodge
  8. That's why I won't go vat reg, I spoke to a lot of customers and potential customers and when asked about the vat a lot of them would go for someone who wasn't vat reg, in some cases not because its 20% more cost but the fact it's another tax and if they don't have to pay it they won't. Hodge
  9. Vat reg you could claim vat back on all your purchases, down side is you will have to charge 20% on top of your normal fee. Hodge
  10. What sort of saddo's would use that? Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk
  11. Because he is a Liverpool player and that's that. The punishment is to the player. If a lorry driver gets done for drunk driving while not at work and he then looses his licence and his company suffers should he only be banned from driving after work? No and the same for this. Liverpool should fine him for letting his club and team mates down. I'm so glad he didn't get to lift the prem trophy. And we ain't all Man U fans mate. I'm a city fan and can't stand the little weasel. Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk
  12. That's my point exactly. Last month I had a £1000 repairs on my landy, new lights on my trailer, new tow hitch on my trailer. This month new set of blades for chipper, 4 pairs sharpened and a new roller box cover. All this has to be paid for on top of the usual costs. Its taken me a long time to fully understand how to run a business and being cheap and winning all the work is really a short term thing. Hodge
  13. Carharrt or arbour wear mate, tough and long lasting. Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk
  14. I really don't know how some of you can sustain a business on prices like £ 390 for 2 climber and a chipper? So as well as public and employers liability insurance do you have tools/chipper/trailer insured? Van insurance? Running costs,servicing,road tax etc? No wonder our industry is in such a state with prices like that. I'm not having a dig at anyone I am just surprised you can run a business on such low rates. Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk
  15. Saw this and thought of you!! Hodge
  16. Awesome book, puts a smile on my face every time I flick through it. Buy it! Hodge
  17. That's fair enough Steve. Its good that you do that for your son, a lot of kids play football and its great for friendship building. Hopefully the kids won't be taking a bite out of each other.. Hodge
  18. Football is not to blame, if you think it is you are deluded. The sport of football has changed so much in the last 25 years since the money came into it so much. Unfortunately some players are corrupted by the glamour and money that goes with the spotlight. There are not that many incidents in such a huge sport. There are incidents in all sports, cycling, boxing, athletics, ice skating etc. but they don't get the exposure of football. If you don't like footy don't watch it. Hodge
  19. Fill partner mate Hodge
  20. What hold it all gizmo? I use aspen and have the spout too, do they have something else? Hodge
  21. IMO, the Stihl can is best easy to see how much fuel and oil is in it. The spouts are good too. Unless husky put a window so you can see the contents then they will always be second best. Hodge
  22. He's a scumbag no matter how good he is. Hodge
  23. That's all that's in the manual mate, maybe ask Timberwolf or call Graham at Orange plant. Hodge
  24. What do u need the torque setting for? Hodge
  25. He ain't that good, he's had one good season for Liverpool and everyone thinks he's gods gift. Hodge
