  1. Morning all, A day of drizzle likely here, but alas not lemon drizzle cake. Repeat pollard on a decent sized sweet chestnut today. Have a good week
  2. Morning all, Breakfast with crossword then a lazy day, maybe a bit of pottering for good measure. Happy Sunday
  3. Morning all, Doing a quote on the other side of the city then collecting timber from Thursday’s job on the way home. Have a good weekend
  4. Morning all, Day at home mainly today. Van should back today, probably a fair sized bill. Climbed a decent sized conifer yesterday and it felt good to be back at it. Be good, be safe
  5. Where has everyone gone today? I think there will be a lot of detentions handed out for poor attendance. Perhaps Bob Z, Stubby, and Maybe will just get called swotties.
  6. Morning all, Small quote near today’s job first then some nice work for regular customer. Clearing a fallen willow then start on dismantling large conifer and/or a large hung up cherry. Happy Thursday
  7. Morning all, Frosty here. Doing a small quote then back for a survey for air source heat pump. Then if van not ready to collect probably take some ground protection mats to a job for next week. Have a good hump day
  8. Morning all, Bit of rain likely. Removing epicormics from a row of limes. Climbing and on ground.
  9. I've heard many people say this, but I am unclear why. I find the 201T no different from the 200T, so I would be interested in what you find different.
  10. Morning all, Ten degrees forecast here today. Taking van and mini digger in for services. Not a lot else after that. Have a good week
  11. Agreed. The other factor is wood type of course. Eight inch diameter lime can be easier than 5-6 inch beech or holly for example. Another factor for me is I do a lot with my MEWP. You are having to lift the saw over the guard rail and often more at arms length and raised, compared to climbing. Add that to the fact you can move around faster with the MEWP/less rest between cuts and I find a full day of MEWP dismantling quite tiring.
  12. I am currently rebuilding my spare Echo 2511TES with new fuel pipes, carb overhaul, so I can run it on Aspen2. If if runs well after the rebuild I am thinking of trying a custom exhaust and retune. I already use the thinner chain of the other 2511TES I have. Just hoping a modded one can make ther need for the 201T even less. Shoulders and wrists at 66 are not 201 friendly.
  13. Morning all, Last of the snow and ice fading now. Week ahead will be odds and sods for me as Man Friday is on holiday and van in garage for at least a couple of days. Plenty of odds and sods to do though. Enjoy your Sunday
  14. Morning all, Nice and frosty here, blue sky and sunny. Got to empty all the tools from the van ready for service and MOT. You can tell the difference driving it without all the kit onboard. Have a good weekend
  15. Morning all, Enjoyed some connie bashing yesterday at last. Two inches of snow if that here. Taking Hilux in for its service, windscreen not even frozen over outside. Be safe.
