  1. You'd think so, but it doesn't:001_smile: Thanks for the info, I'm rethinking it.
  2. Well there you go then. That company are out of the equation. Despite her dreamy green eyes and firm young body.
  3. Not really, she tried to give me stuff about anti virus but in reality it's just bog standard hosting. I think it's a cash cow so they go high and hope for the best,
  4. 60 quid if I was working nearby. Maybe 80 if I had to go and quote it.
  5. I've decided to update my website and had a salesperson round to pitch their services. Anyway, after the usual spiel, she quoted the sort of price I was expecting €2000 for 6 pages etc. Some might think that pricey but that's not my issue. My current website costs £20 per quarter to host. The new (french) company said it was €45 per month from them. I said that was far too much and sent her away to talk to her boss. What sort of prices do you guys pay?
  6. Ok, chose a better world than underwhelmed. (I was quite pleased with it if I'm honest)
  7. The 280 has an aperture of 280x210 ie. 11x8 inches. The 230 is not really a 6" inch machine, i agree they are brilliant though. I had thought the 280 would be a stonker, but if you demo'd a 280 and were underwhelmed fair enough.
  8. It'll curl up and cover the top in a year or two. If you explained the outcome before, walk out the garden without a backward glance, with a cheque of course!
  9. If you can afford the crane/mewp fine. Elm is pretty tough even when dead, no power lines from what I can see. I would say save your money and climb. Should still be done easily in a day with all that gear.
  10. https://www.indy100.com/article/wikipedia-respond-daily-mail-journalist-ban-news-unreliable-source-clap-back-7571356 Reap as ye shall sow.
  11. Hate it (and love it!) when they do that. A phone call would be nice so you could arrange more manpower/equipment.
  12. I have found the husky batteries have variable charge capacities. I have 3 of them. I number them with a marker them to keep an eye on it. No 2 is the best, keeps going longer.
  13. T'is but a sapling! Classic "man conquers nature" shot.
  14. http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/general-chat/96906-sheffield-chainsaw-massacre.html For your perusal.
  15. I know Darrin, not in the mood for a row/discussion about "reductions" so i pulled it. I do agree with you though.
  16. Why We Need Trump In Town… | Tim Marshall - The What and The Why Tim Marshall gives his tuppence. Fwiw I agree with him.
  17. But those have little to do with this guy who sits outside his house in the shade of his birch trees. Telling him to cut them down, plant an apple and put a parasol up. These people are our bread and butter clients, not the Duke of Cumberland (Cue someone who works for the Duke of Cumberland!)
  18. Hi Paul, Removing a tree is the first option, if that's what the client really wants. Ps radiant with good health thanks:001_smile:
