    Hello all, To begin, I'm having trouble uploading photos from my phone. So I know the answers to my queries may be hard to give. But basically, I'm after some ball park figures on what money one could realistically expect to get for some walnut timber. Main stem would go in about two pieces, both about 7ft with 7/8ft circumference. Then there are some funky unions, and a further load of less diameter limbs. If I can work out how to add photos I'll do so. Any help or info great received. Thanks in advance.

    Brilliant! I'll take a half day off then as you won't need the services of the Cumbrian Not So Compact Loader!

    Hello, I'm trying to fill a few days next week, Monday and Wednesday (2nd and 4th) short notice I appreciate. Hard working groundie with good experience. Have my own saw and PPE, fetch my own flask and bait, and have own transport. Please call 07772655759 Thanks, Mike

    No, I do get annoyed. I tell someone though, honesty is the best policy.

    Seems to me like this thread is a lot of climbers and boss men moaning about everybody else! As a time served groundie, I can say with confidence that nobody is perfect, climbers and boss men included! There has been plenty of times I've wanted to drag a climber out the tree and chip them, or give the boss a hoof up the backside. It works both ways, but not everyone is useless. You just have to find the good ones and stay working with them In my opinion if something is wrong or annoys you, do something about it. If said idiot doesn't learn you then have a real problem. You can't cure stupid, as is said a lot.

    In fact, it was the job I've got a photo of on here as my profile picture!

    I've worked with Graham on a job with that mulcher. Beast is an understatement John!

    No surprise which Council this is John?! Bloody crackpots.

    Haha! Cheers John. I gave the old Golf a proper good clean last night, or I might have taken you up on that offer!

    Hello, I'm looking to fill the first bit of next week, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. I'm an experienced groundie with CS30/31, got my own saw and PPE. There are a few members who use the forum who can vouch for me (hopefully ) if required. I'm hard working, time diligent, fetch my own bait and love a good days graft. Can turn my hand to strimming, mowing, hedge cutting etc. Also experienced dry stone waller as well. Please call me on 07772655759 if you think you might have some work. I'm based near Richmond in North Yorkshire, but can also do work in Northern and Central Cumbria as my folks have a farm in Keswick. I look forward to hearing from someone hopefully. Thanks, Mike

    I've had mine for just over two years, and I'm having exactly the same issues others have had. 3 brake bands, 1 clutch spring, both AV's gone (in last month), of which front one broke again the day after the new one was fitted! Pain to start, cuts out randomly etc. It hasn't had an easy life, and I did treat it to a Sugi bar, but I don't think I'll get another one.

    I started out with Stihl clip on's. They didn't last particularly well in my opinion, one of the clip mechanisms broke and I ended up hooking the remaining part onto a belt loop. I have now got Husky button on's. And so far I'm not overly impressed with them either! They don't seem to stay in the desired position, so basically they slacken off and my kegs start heading south which isn't ideal

    I'd estimate that video to be worth two packets of oatcakes, six roll ups and seventeen reduced price Morrisons pasties

    I've made a boob! My mobile number is typed incorrectly above, what a clown. Please call me on 07772655759, thanks.

    Bump! Spent the last few days helping my Mrs move to Melsonby, just what you need with Christmas looming. Now that's out the way, it's time to find some work for me. Anyone looking for help, please do get in touch via contact details above. Thanks, Mike
