Why would anyone do that?.. Richard is comparing wage comparisons betwixt a tree climber and an assistant helping him out.. Where if memory serves you was looking down your nose at your help...had nothing to do with the description of the job at all.. That being the case why everyone imagined otherwise and tried to make light of the job description is a mystery..

The root of the problem is the Koran, simple as that.. The author didn't know if he was attempting to write a holy book or a war manual.. I hasten to add I'm no expert on the Koran, but I have investigated it a little.. that bein the case its obvious to me that parts of the Koran have been influenced by Jewish thinking and parts by Christian thinking.. And parts by the military ethics of the time... Its in that context that these religious fanatics can justify their atrocities to themselves and other Muslims.. and why moderate Muslims find it hard to argue against them.. Now considering we can't exactly change whats in the Koran, the next best thing is to keep Muslims on their side of the fence.... I mean, How often have I heard them say "its because you're in Muslim lands", well, we'll get out of yours, you get out of ours.. Simple...

Last time BT came round to fix my broken line the fella came in the house to tidy things up. I wish he didn't bother, cost me about £150 or more... So yea, any chance to empty their pockets get on with it..

I wish I could congratulate you on your taste in books, but I've never read a terry pratchet book so can't really comment, I'm sure they're worth a read though.. I've moved my book collection to my Kindle mostly history books about the ancient world with a few classics thrown in for light relief.. Well done on the shelves, nothin like building your own stuff when you can..

Yea an this comment gets my goat as well, the underlying tone being a threat to management that they better do something about it... Now don't get me wrong, I to found the comment a little offensive, but more because its something that hadn't been thought through.. But then again, cider an thinking aren't usually a good guide to what someone really thinks.. And, given the fact 130 people had just been murdered in cold blood, he and everyone else has a right to vent to get it out their system..

Archbishop of Canterbury doubts the presence of God!

I'd guess the same reason atrocities committed far away don't register as much as those committed close to home... not to mention the French are our next door neighbors.. which for me is something of a pity, I prefer the Germans... -
WTF, was I pissed... OH I get it.. I've never Greased..

Yea, I understand that, but, does it have to cost forty quid for two pairs of socks to do it?... Try doubling up on cheap socks and see how you go on... I'm sure the difference wouldn't be forty pounds worth LOL... Try it out tomorrow Mendiplogs and report your finding back here tomorrow.. -

Yea, I meant pair in the plural LOL.. not singular hahah... Forget a pair is two socks when you say a pair in sock language.... -

If wool holds in water then I'm not sure I'd want woolen socks if I was gonna be sweatin in em.. And I certainly wouldn't be payin 70quid for pair of em...you out your mind?... what you need is textiles that wick water away, man made fibres.. So I'd imagine two pairs of socks with mixed fibres for a coupla quid.. if your workin in em that is, sitting down or not doin much of anything strenuous then go for the expensive woolen ones.. -
More likely to get fingered by the liberal left as a racist and bigot... I'll be surprised if he's not let go sometime next year, you just watch.. Oh by the way I agree with everything he says..

Well to be honest theres some truth in that.... I'm not fond of people looking down their nose at other peoples jobs.. and sometimes I get annoyed, even if I know the fella said it in jest... another thing I'm not found of is someone calling me a troll, wheres my black book?...

No LOL I'm just havin a go at (who was it) whatshisname... Talking about his staff like they're dirt... I wondered if his boss used to talk down to him, and did he ever like it... By the way, I'm sure you'll go on an do fine eventually, seems your hearts in the right place at least... Unlike some on here... money money money, every things about money with some... You look after your mate Bird, and who knows, one day you might find he'll look after you...

Why not be a little more disparaging to the people you employ, branch dragger. I hope your branch dragger throws a brick in your chipper, teach you some respect for another mans occupation..

Oh Yea, so a compromise was got at.. Pay someone four hundred quid if you wanna complain... who's gonna do that?... better to chop at the roots an see what comes of it... Have you heard what Mr Bumble has to say on the subject... If the law supposes that," said Mr. Bumble, squeezing his hat emphatically in both hands, "the law is a ass — a idiot. If that's the eye of the law, the law is a bachelor; and the worst I wish the law is, that his eye may be opened by experience — by experience.”

Don't listen to this lot, you do what you thinks best, at least until you've got going.. At some point, when the times right you and your mate might think to go your separate ways who knows.. until then go fifty fifty on the profit...not the costs.. Maybe its just me, but I'd rather keep a friend than lose one over an extra five per cent..

Am I making it up as I go along hahahah Of course I'm making it up, thats to say I'm attempting to think what's fair.. Now heres the thing, theres good reason to for thinking I'm right. I'm sure a law was being brought in a while back on the height of these tree's but the act was defeated in parliament or filibustered out on a private members bill... vested interests an all that... So, even if the law says so an so on the matter, it aught be ignored. tell the judge to stuff his compen were the sun don't shine as its not right an it ain't bein paid. Explain that its an injustice, an you'll be taking this all the way the European High Court.. See if European Justice can be used to slap the judge down... Anyone with an once of decency knows not to grow these thing beyond six or seven feet..

find out if one of your friends knows someone who can do it for you. Other than that, do what I would do, Utube how to do it.. Might involve an headache but might be worth havin a crack at.. Not that I've got one myself mind, my son has one though, did it himself. an if he can manage to get one runnin, anyone can LOL...

I use those cheap Carabiners and anything else that I think might catch my eye..

Bird Put an add in the local paper, and get someone to build you an internet site.. An don't worry what other people make, plow your own furrow.. I'm sure you'll do well one day or other..
