8.4s with a grapple (knockabout not powered rotator) plus I have a silage grab, log splitter, flail and bucket.

Something a bit meatier than usual, a few days clearing some red oaks and hornbeam in readiness for a house build by a lake.

I have one, second hand, I have had a hydraulic motor go, and an ignition barrel, but yeah, it’s nice. -

Brass Eye, quite good, clever without being really funny. On the subject of comedy... I was listening to Richard Herring talking to Matt Lucas on a podcast recently. The subject was raised about how many characters in Little Britain were, in hindsight, not very acceptable. Matt Lucas accepted it, when you think about, Ting Tong, The only gay in the village, fat club, bad transvestites and others, it’s amazing that it was commissioned and broadcast so recently.

Ha ha! I guess it is ‘franglais élagage’ so it’s exactly what it says on the tin!

Did you get a French person to check spelling and grammar? So many mistakes! Even I can see them.

It’s a repollard/retopping of some HCs, no need for soul searching, good job.

Hé was right. They look ace the first spring after a topping.

My bet is got out entirely. It is that sort of business.

Is the chain brake on?

Happens occasionally with mine, and now I know why. ‘Open vents when adding wood to a sleepy fire’ Will do.

My fox terrier finds them regularly in our garden, then the drama starts! I have to throw a coat over it, pick it up and put it over the fence, whilst the dog makes a passable impression of a breaching crocodile, leaping up and snapping at the bundle.

Toads are phlegmatic, ‘take your picture and put me back, I got stuff to do’

Adder?

Isn’t he just? I have a little fish pond 30 yards from the workshop which is his base i guess. Amazing what wildlife a small body of water can attract.

I’m exaggerating a bit, if they want a tree dropped and walk, no problem. I guess I can usually smell the cheapskates, I also explain I have an ‘on the books’ employee, he can either sit in the truck on his phone, or he can chip the brash, either way they’re paying for him.
