  1. You challenge the norm by doing what the guys who fork out for tree grabs, cranes and other gear that does the job more efficiently do, you put your balls on the block.
  2. I’ve never understood the “such and such trade gets this money” Well do that then. You get what you get, it’s a free market economy.
  3. It ain’t that hard though is it? It’s not life or death stuff.
  4. That’s the thing, there’s rarely a reason for the sale of nearly new stuff, less than 100 hours for example.
  5. I am noticing a lot of very good nearly new chippers being put up for sale in the last few weeks. Or is it my imagination?
  6. I guess if you’re going to buy the dip, now’s the time.
  7. Sorry to hear that. Where is “up here”?
  8. Oak is a premium firewood. It is more expensive than others like chestnut for good reason. Now if it isn’t then firewood merchants have been pulling an Emperor’s new clothes gig for hundreds of years which while not impossible is very very unlikely. Or some people aren’t seasoning it properly or they don’t know how to light a fire. I know what my money is on.
  9. Yep, look at the branch attachements.
  10. I know, it’s mad innit? Apart from the toppers and the odd big saw on big trees, my two 550s do everything.
  11. I cannot see a Maccy in that, bark not right for one thing.
  12. I genuinely had no idea he was still alive. Good for him, RIP.
  13. Looks like Trump was the big loser of the Mid-terms (according to Fox) Ron de Santis looks the new Republican candidate for President.
  14. One step closer to complete Russian capitulation.
  15. Russians pulling out of Kherson. That’s quite a big deal.
  16. Precisely, it could be the MySpace of the 2020s.
  17. It’s starting to look like Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter could be one of the greatest acts of hubris, the biggest loss of money and bringer of some of the biggest laughs of all time.
  18. I know it’s your thing J, but open the door to this and it’s a free for all.
