  1. Leaving the gym and going straight to the chip shop is one that baffles me... and of course the obligitory can of diet juice to wash down the fish and chips
  2. There's a "thing"on youtube called people of wallmart-basically fat american folks dressed in bizzare clothing. Ive started to notice this in our own supermarkets-people of asda!
  3. Or 20 years ahead of the continent as we seem to be following in the footsteps of the americans....
  4. I dont think thats the case matty,not by my observations of modern society. Most overweight people are overweight by there own making,poor diet,lack of exersize,sedintary life style. How much of a strain are people putting on the NHS by being overweight which as we all know brings a host of health issues. Im not so sure of the op's opinions and views though...
  5. Doesnt matter mate,the meer site of it will make men jelous and women moist... Hold on im kinda moist lookin at it...
  6. I like a bit of meat on my women,not fat but,you know,a bit of cushion for the pushin. Never really been into the whole thin/skinny women thing.I do like a fit girl,l find an athletic body is aestheticlly pleasing.
  7. 11.5mm tachyon runs well in zz as does hendra and blue tongue.Anything under 12mm will run and self tend
  8. Forgot too say,sometimes you'll have too travel to where the work is,london seems to be a hotbed of potential employment just now. Working away monday to friday and going home at weekends may be the way forward if your to find a good employer who will invest in you as a future team leader/climber.
  9. Maybe look at the options as an apprentice,although id imagine the financial remuneration package would be pitiful. You could apply for second climber positions,mostly ground work but you will climb now and again. Just be honest with your potential employer but stress how keen and hardworking you are.Most will take a punt on you for at least a couple of shifts to see if your up to the job. If yoy do get a couple of shifts with someone be on the ball,when you pull up to the job,put the cones and signs out,get all the saws/blower topped up with fuel-dont stand still keep busy and ffs DONT fanny around on your phone. Good luck mate
  10. Love my zz, ran it for a long time on 11.5mm tachyon with a pulley saver,really smooth setup. Ive gone back to 13mm yale xtc now cause my grips not what it used to be so the thicker rope definetly helps. Like wes says climbing setup is a personal choice of the individual and everyone has preferences
  11. Art positioner for your lanyard would make that a sweet setup. Im on the zigzag but one of the lads climbs on the sj3 and loves it.
  12. I'll 2nd that will..
  13. Sounds more like team leader that just "tree surgeon" to me..hence the wage
  14. Most jobs now i run my 150 then onto the 346xp on a 15" or 441 on a 20"if its bigger sections.Point is my 150 gets used as often as i can.
  15. Same old story on here mate.. We couldnt agree on the colour of shite
  16. Ive used a stock 200t in the past,great saw on a 12" bar..a ported one would be a dream
  17. We have a couple of 201 tc's at work, the politest way i can think of too say this is i wouldnt recommend them to anyone.
  18. Man glitter=wood chips..
  19. Reduction cuts are great but it rains man glitter...not so great
  20. Yeah its not the weight but how you use it thats the important factor. I find the less i train the sorer i am after each workout. Kettlebell workouts in a cicuit are brutal and i doff my cap to anyone who partakes in them...tremendous way to train.
  21. I train about 3 to 4 times a week at the gym,i use kettlebells pretty regular in my workouts,amazing way to train,cardio/strength/conditioning all in the one workout. Problem is the gym kettlebells only go to 16kg and its difficult to get that blighter when the gyms busy. Big fan of anything that challenges you and really easy to use.
  22. Good luck gettin a 346 xp...good uns are pretty rare now.260 with a 15 inch guidebar would get you through your small tree felling course and do you for basic "work". Pretty sure the course provider will provide saws but most will allow you to bring your own if thats what you want. Welcome to arb and good luck mate
  23. Mick i may have a job for you... A TO needs to "disappear" Pm me your fee.. I know the drill I aint seen you...right
  24. I would disagree there rich most of the big retailers honeys,gustharts,jonsies buxtons etc have all got srt sections with rope wrench kits,haas,footloops etc but none of those have the bdb. Where did u get yours from mate?
  25. Yeah that was my point rich... The guy in the video was using kit thats difficult to get here
