    When I passed my driving test the first thing my dad said when I got s car was don't get s personalised plate. As people will recognise you too easily and report you if you do something stupid. This was 22 years ago when not many people had them.

    Will get a picture if they have any left. My luck says they will be sold out👎
  3. Richard 1234
    Thanks I will have a look at that. I presume I would be able to get parts for it?

    Ok I think I will have a trip down there in the morning and see if there is one. Thanks all

    Is this saw any good? And if so is the price about right? Makita 43cc Petrol Engine Blade Chainsaw 38cm | Wickes.co.uk Many thanks

    You should try and find a local place because if they are not outwardly damaged they can normally be repaired internally. Worth looking into especially if it's a pump not a motor.

    The key is in the name here lawn sand. You may not have it in the states but it has iron in it at the very least. So it's not just sand he's talking about

    I'd put some weed and feed type stuff on it. Leave it a couple of weeks cut it high and see where it's at maybe oversees if it's still thin. Just keep cutting it a decent height and it will fill itself out to a point anyway. Cut in opposite directions each cut as well. As in up and down one cut then side to side next cut as it encourages it to fill out.

    Try hss they have them in Lincoln that's if you have a hss down there. Also speedy hire do them I think they are national too.

    How many hours did that take to mess about with? Looks to be a right pain!

    Try British Gas they may still take you on a contract if it's not too bad! We've had service cover from British Gas for years well worth £25 a month as they are really fast to come out. They normally can get parts overnight and fix next day if it's not on the van.

    I'd get a bike handle machine if just for strimming as its much easier to control in my opinion. If doing banking etc you can tilt the handles backward to keep the head level with the terrain yet still stand quite upright if that makes sense. I would stick with 2 strike of any of the decent brands as they are all pretty similar. I'm picking a stiga brushcutter up next week just over £400 with a Kawasaki engine on it and the anti vibe like the Stihl for a lot less money!

    Looks like a pin dropped through a hole correct me if I'm wrong which would mean most farmer can pull it I would think. All the tractors I've seen have pins near the pto.

    I think the guy needs to find a new job then report the boss to. The DWP

    It's a tough situation as you said because unless he kicks up a stink and spends money he can't do anything about it. I wonder if there are any no win no fee lawyers for this kind of thing.(not that I think they are a good idea re. Car accidents etc)
  18. Richard 1234
    That's good but I was referring to the courts recent ruling that if your employer has a base you get paid from the time you reach it. If you don't report to a base like you didn't. Then you are paid as you were or should be!
  19. Richard 1234
    I think they would get into big bother because of that ruling. Once on company site you are at work regardless of having to drive an hour to do the work. Maybe you could email that link to his boss!!

    Hi mate what kind of money is it to move such a big tree?
  21. Richard 1234
    I think if you go on the US Stihl website they have exploded diagrams of most things with part numbers
  22. Richard 1234
    Where abouts in West Midlands ?
  23. Richard 1234
    It's loads of ground to cover as it has to be stem injected I think!
  24. Richard 1234
