    I'll give you that one, very funny.

    You can't make decisions in business based on reviews on a forum. You'd never buy anything.

    Hi Paul, you see that's another thing that I find a bit daft, when the industry uses pejorative words like "last gasp" and "panic" it marks the regrowth as somehow bad. That oak came back fine, nothing last gasp or panic about it. What I see on here is a scenario I've come across often, client wants tree reduced like this holm oak owner, tree surgeon (overflowing with college fed dogma) goes round tells him you mustn't do this or that or the tree may die. "bad tree owner" thinks about it does it anyway, the tree looks and is fine, original tree surgeon looks like a mug, and lost the job.

    This one was "rounded over" a good while ago, not by me. Came back ok.
  5. Mick Dempsey
    More than I thought. last one I bought was €625 (I think)

    The ones I've seen have come back almost "lime like" There was talk of bark peel from the pruning points on a similar thread some time back. If the client knows what he wants best not disappoint him.

    Seems a legit price, what are they 450 quid new?
  8. Mick Dempsey
    I've heard of people doing it. Seems like drama queen stuff.
  9. Mick Dempsey
    I was quoted €400 just for the part. For 150 quid I'd have it fixed tomorrow.
  10. Mick Dempsey
    Yeah of course, on the days I do use it I get a little tearful, 'cos it's a bloody brilliant saw otherwise.

    I'm just hanging on to mine, using it periodically and waiting for some scrappers to start turning up.
  12. Mick Dempsey
    Mine has broken in exactly the same place! So if anyone has two?

    Took this selfie whilst the wife and I did some rock climbing. Strangely she hasn't been seen since....
  14. Mick Dempsey
    Ok cheers.

    Ps, why do you call them " imprisoned trees"

    Very very lightly with a flat file, if you take off too much you'll change the length/angle and they'll be useless. I have done it successfully, I should do mine again soon coincidentally, not been done in a decade.

    This is a joke right? Get on with it and never listen to students.
  18. Mick Dempsey
    Lovely day here!

    I thought that as well, I think that has to be the most requested id on here, seems to catch a lot of people out. Me as well first time I came across it.

    Also with FB I keep in touch with old friends all round the world. That's one of the good sides of the Internet
  22. Mick Dempsey
    You know all you have to do is set your privacy settings on FB so no stranger can see your stuff if you don't want them to. Also when people irritate you you can just hide them so you longer see their posts. Half of my "friends" are hidden for various crimes against humanity. I dare say I've been hidden many times as well. No harm, no foul.
  23. Mick Dempsey
    And irony.
  24. Mick Dempsey
    Toppit'n'hoppit.

    TOO MAY CAPITALS AND !!!!!???????? Where's Dave been lately anyway?
