  1. Hi Andrea, These people do a lot of utility work and private work in France. I know they also do apprenticeship stuff as they advertise it on FB and are always recruiting. Could be worth investigating..
  2. I have only minor problems with my husky battery stuff. Would recommend.
  3. Yep. There you are.
  4. Wordle 1,285 4/6 🟩🟨⬜⬜⬜ 🟩⬜🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  5. No, so there’s that bit of double standards on my part! Here my plant is the other side of the wall in the barn so it’s unlikely they’d disappear overnight (though not impossible I know) Rural theft is much rarer here. I did have a tracked chipper nicked in the UK on a trailer in 2004, just before we moved here, before trackers were so widespread, though I did recover it. I feel sure I’d invest if I still had a remote yard in the UK.
  6. I think individuals could take responsibility to have trackers fitted to their own machines.
  7. Bad news Doug, for Tom and all concerned.
  8. Clear as day.
  9. Wordle 1,284 3/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟨 🟨🟩🟨🟨⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  10. Exactly, everything’s a compromise, a bit like overcoats.
  11. Did Biden pardon any murderers?
  12. Those rubbery ones makes my hands feel horrible, it’s leather or fabric/leather for me.
  13. Difficult to say with any certainty. If it worries you, take it out.
  14. What would happen if it failed? Meaning what would it damage?
  15. Well done for remembering not to put the triple ellipsis on after. No one will suspect this time!
  16. Seems to me it’s basically a ‘see you in court’ if you don’t comply and there’s further damage. They won’t answer your questions, there’s no point. It is crunch time.
  17. Very good!
  18. He can’t apparently.
  19. Have you read the thread?
  20. Or maybe he’s mixing tack, tact and tactic.
  21. Pottering in workshop. Sharpening set up.
  22. Wordle 1,282 3/6 ⬜⬜🟩⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  23. Yes, I guess that puts into words what I was trying to articulate. We used to do two sorts of deadwooding, the complete deadwood, meaning every tiny bit (a real ballache) and what we used to describe as ‘just the elephant killers’ major dead limbs etc. (Much more fun) Persuading people to leave smaller deadwood would be a hard sell though.
  24. Does look like that, agreed. Conventional wisdom would suggest weak attachment points snapping out rather than the whole tree failing. Probably someone will link the topping with the whole tree failure
