  1. I don’t think you’ll see any significant drop in prices, if you need it, buy it.
  2. It’s up to you of course. But I get kind of pissed off by work like this being done in an inefficient way. This needs a couple of climbers, a decent chipper working all day and some kind of loader or digger and grapple to help the groundies get it processed as it drops. Rattle it off in three days easy. A site working like that, efficiently and productively, is a thing of beauty. One guy spending days and days doing everything for whatever reason is ridiculous.
  3. Staying in France this Christmas, wet and misty here. Just off for the shopping then dicking around for a few days, nothing pressing on the agenda.
  4. Similar symptoms to a couple of husky’s I had with the same problem. I am no mechanic either btw.
  5. Ignition unit? Is it a pig to start?
  6. Dammit! Anyway those leaves look like Norway Maple.
  7. Checked the OPs address on the tip directory, look what’s opposite…
  8. @goblinlogail if you google street view your address, we can see the tree and solve the mystery for ever.
  9. Top photo looks more like Sweet Chestnut the more I look at them. Defo not willow.
  10. he’s here all week folks, don’t forget to try the chicken….
  11. You can never be 100% sure what’s going through, especially if it’s a hedge removal, wire and stuff.
  12. I dunno, it was more a lack of any common cultural interests. If you cannot have a laugh together it’s pointless.
  13. Buckets work, but it’s not pretty. You need to take a lot of earth to avoid ‘plugging’ All in all, unsatisfactory.
  14. I can’t imagine what it must be like to not find ‘The life of Brian’ funny. I once dated a bird who loved Cliff Richard, I mean been to see him dozens of times. Plus, she hated Blackadder. She was fit as, gym junkie, decent looking as well. It couldn’t last.
  15. My wife loves it, she makes a curry every Saturday night and we sit there watch it and eat the curry. There’s worse ways of spending a Saturday night. She, like me, is becoming fed up with various aspects of it. So as the head of light entertainment at the BBC is undoubtedly a member of Arbtalk I will address this to him. 1: New presenters, Tess is a clothes horse, put her out to pasture. Ideally a bloke, comedian like Bradley Walsh, maybe Stephen Mulhern. 2: Stop forcing the same sex dancers on us, it’s not as enjoyable. Johannes for example is a flaming poof, we all know it, dances with women and is very good. Stop using this program for social engineering. Layton is a West End leading man, with a dance school! It was clear the BBC wanted him to win. 3: Less schmaltz, more laughs, less tears. 4: Bin the Halloween special. 5: Youth hostelling with Chris Eubank is a must.
