  1. I know, it’s mad innit? Apart from the toppers and the odd big saw on big trees, my two 550s do everything.
  2. No. That doesn’t sound right.
  3. I cannot see a Maccy in that, bark not right for one thing.
  4. I genuinely had no idea he was still alive. Good for him, RIP.
  5. Looks like Trump was the big loser of the Mid-terms (according to Fox) Ron de Santis looks the new Republican candidate for President.
  6. One step closer to complete Russian capitulation.
  7. Russians pulling out of Kherson. That’s quite a big deal.
  8. Looks like a deodar with a particularly crappy form.
  9. Precisely, it could be the MySpace of the 2020s.
  10. 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.
  11. I know it’s your thing J, but open the door to this and it’s a free for all.
  12. It’s a small overpopulated island (at least down south) rules exist to stop people ruining other peoples lives. I didn’t read it all but the cancer thing is irrelevant, it’s not the X-Factor.
  13. I read somewhere that some big yankee chippers have movers as well. I think the best answer is a small wheeled loader with a tow hitch on the fixed grab. The loader is a game changer in this job anyway. If you can’t afford that, push and drag till you can afford it.
  14. It’s rarely an issue in this business (at least compared to construction or similar)
  15. I think in the context of this thread it just means ceasing to trade.
  16. Ok, I regret the weird turn this thread has taken, my fault.
  17. Did you give it oral sex or something?
  18. Depends if you land on the groundy.
  19. (Checks his own post…) Oh, that’s exactly what I wrote!
  20. Love how you weigh in on stuff you know next to nothing about.
  21. Depends on the 8” and the 6” An ST8 is a world away from a GM 150, and will make your day a lot more enjoyable and less tiring especially on conny removals (as long as it not broken down) If it’s your only chipper I’d say go 8” (other brands are available) bollocks to the diesel and as for manœuvring on site, you’ll find a way.
  22. Saw a bit of an episode lately, thought it aged rather badly if I’m honest. Was only years later someone pointed out to me that Alan Alda was basically doing a ‘Groucho Marx’ the whole time.
  23. Corporal Klinger.
