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.
-
Morning all, Breakfast, crossword, walk dog, then laze around. Happy Sunday
-
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.
-
Morning all, Friday off as usual here. Day with She Who Must Be Obeyed, AKA Shwhombo.
-
PS: Forecast here is 16 degrees
-
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.
-
Morning all, Drizzle just now but 15 degrees and sunny forecast. Crazy. Side pruning some conifers today.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Morning all, Travelling to childhood friend’s for lunch. Known each other 62 years now. Happy Sunday
-
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.
-
Morning all, Domestic chores today, possibly furthers hoarder’s house clearance. I will await instruction from the high command. Happy Friday
-
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.
-
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.

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.
-
Morning all, Got to fix the chipper road lights first then some light pruning work today. Does anyone like trailer lights🙈
-
Morning all, Hopefully dry here. Small local stuff today. Have a good week.
-
Morning all, More clearing out of an elderly hoarder’s house with my wife. My loathing of tangled coat hangers has reached new levels. On a brighter note the mewp behaved itself yesterday. Have a good Sunday
-
I did indeed Doug. Collected it on Thursday.Fault turned out to be a position sensor switch on an outrigger. Got a few jobs to try it out on first 🤞 I have to say the guys at CMC in Sussex have been very helpful.
-
Morning all, Finishing a very small local job that I had to abandon when the mewp played up continuously, then maybe a quote for a regular customer. Have a good weekend.
-
Morning all, Flu jab this morning, then some office work. Looking at a large ash with die back this afternoon. In the hedge between field and garden. Farmer wondered if we could push it over with a loadall. I explained that it was not a good idea to be standing next to the trunk doing a back cut while a machine pushes on it. Sounds like use the mewp to get crown off is a safer plan.
-
Morning all, Early start. M40, M1 etc to fetch MEWP back from CMC dealer. It appears the intermittent problem was a position sensor switch one one of the outriggers. Sleep on.
-
Morning all, A day on the ground for me, raking up. A bit of a rest after 3 days climbing. Weather looking good too.
-
Morning all, Got piss wet through yesterday. Joints aching today. Dry this morning then rain this afternoon. Better get the laurel hedge reduction done by dinner time then. On the plus side yesterday's wet chainsaw trousers are now dry and warm, having sat on the boiler overnight.
-
Morning all, You have my sympathy Pete, I find it hard enough avoiding all the woke issues when I speak to my three hardworking offspring. Rain likely, so of course it’s a conifer dismantle today, but not massive. Fired up the wood boiler for the season yesterday.
