  1. What have you got?
  2. Morning all, Week ahead looking sunny and cold. Much better than muggy and grey. Happy Sunday.
  3. Morning all, Calm now after very windy night. Doing a quote Doing a quote then putting the home made stump grinder on the minidigger ready for Monday. Have a good weekend.
  4. Morning all, Throwing it down here, but I don't do Fridays on site anyway. Bit of office work then domestic bliss. The mewp was a joy to use yesterday now it is behaving itself. I chose to put oversize pads under the outriggers as the ground was pretty soft. Hope your day goes ok in this weather.
  5. You guys make me look so inadequate. This is the best I can offer up at present. Ash with die back just along my lane. Started 08:30, finished 4 hours later. No chipping, nothing to remove. Blue sky and sunshine, working in short sleeves. WhatsApp Video 2025-11-13 at 11.25.57.mp4 WhatsApp Video 2025-11-13 at 12.15.12.mp4
  6. Morning all, Sunshine and 14 degrees forecast. Dismantling ash with die back between a field and a garden paddock. Using mewp and little Bob to move the timber. Leaving it all on site, no chipping. Stay safe.
  7. Morning all, Grey a d drizzly here. Annual laurel hedge trim this morning then load up mewp and bobcat ready for tomorrow. Have a good day all.
  8. Morning all, Looking like a wet one here. Taking the day off to rest my (real not metal) knee. Hope all goes well Pete.
  9. Morning all, Other way round for the weather here. Dry and sunny this morning, rain this afternoon. Heavy rain tomorrow. Minor climbing this morning then felling hollies around the edge of a copse where they are invading the field. Have a good week.
  10. Morning all, Breakfast, crossword, walk dog, then laze around. Happy Sunday
  11. Morning all, Grey but dry here. Walk the dog while wife goes running, fit non LED lights to road tow chipper to keep silly Iveco electrics happy, then recce ground conditions for Monday, job. It seems not long ago the ground was rock hard with parched grass, and now on verge of needing to put boards down on lawns. Have a good weekend.
  12. Morning all, Friday off as usual here. Day with She Who Must Be Obeyed, AKA Shwhombo.
  13. PS: Forecast here is 16 degrees
  14. Morning all, Taking Iveco in to get trailer electrics sorted then hedge cutting. I remember just over 30 years ago washing my Land Rover in early November and the water freezing before it could run off the bodywork.
  15. Morning all, Drizzle just now but 15 degrees and sunny forecast. Crazy. Side pruning some conifers today.
  16. Morning all, Was silly mild here yesterday too, 14 degrees. Rain off and on today, finishing one of the regular annual laurel holly conifer trims today.
  17. Morning all, Weather looking ok for early part of the week. MEWP dismantle of tall thin dead sycamore today. Late start to let traffic die down first. It overhangs the pavement. Have a good week.
  18. Morning all, Travelling to childhood friend’s for lunch. Known each other 62 years now. Happy Sunday
  19. Morning all, Early drizzle should clear then small job just up my lane. Dismantle small spruce between BT lines then small conifer next to it. Have a good weekend.
  20. Morning all, Domestic chores today, possibly furthers hoarder’s house clearance. I will await instruction from the high command. Happy Friday
  21. Morning all, Managed to mow my grass yesterday. I keep kidding myself it will be the last cut of the year. Weighing in a trailer load of sweepings then a couple of quotes.
  22. What does that do that a 7 pin socket can't? Is it because the lights are canbus controlled? Yes, canbus I’m afraid. Witchcraft to me. I’ve just changed the ECU and harness to no avail. Fixed it last time but not this. Have booked in in with my local garage who look after it.
  23. Morning all, Working on the Iveco trailer lighting circuit. Looks like the fault is in the dedicated ECU. Housed in the rear wheel arch behind the wheels. Had to replace it 3yrs ago due to water ingress. It even has a metal stone deflector in front of it. That’s admitting it is a poor design. Glad my vehicle is 10 years old, because a newer one would need the ECU fitting then coding. Will also replace the harness from the ECU to the 13 pin socket. Rant over, have a good day.
  24. Morning all, Got to fix the chipper road lights first then some light pruning work today. Does anyone like trailer lights🙈
  25. Morning all, Hopefully dry here. Small local stuff today. Have a good week.
