I don't post very often but I must say you really do appear to be a complete and fantasist end. Almost every word you type stinks of spectacular bullshit. Maybe I'm wrong, but I bet I'm not.

Yawn

Thanks for the message Matt - I've managed to get sorted for the next few months; I'll give you a shout if anything changes. Cheers Steve

Hi, I'm coming to the end of a contract and am looking for some tree survey work (preferably in the North of England but can travel elsewhere) I have 20 years experience in Arb & hold PTI qualification, Level 3 Arb(HNC), Gold Card CSCS, SMSTS etc. Many years experience in subsidence surveys, BS5837 and large scale hazard surveys (Highways and Local Authority) Familiar with most IT packages but AutoCAD is a little rusty. 100% reliable, have own transport, tablet etc. Happy to work 3 or 4 days a week if that suits. Please feel free to pm me with any questions Cheers Steve

Thanks for the reply - much appreciated

Distance is not a problem for me - however, the average daytime temperature is 50 degree celsius which may take a bit of getting used to.

Thanks for the reply Jay - the Comrades run looks great - I've got my eye on the Everest marathon after the MdS but as you know the training takes up so much time (not to mention the cost) I'll have to put in the hard yards with the wife to get the nod for that one..... Thanks for the tip about Tom Evans - I have read about him before - supreme athlete - I'm hoping to get in the to top 50% in the MdS but I'm getting closer to the big 50 by the day so have to pace myself !! There are so many groups out there with so many people offering advice it's enough to make your head spin - I'm hoping to find someone relatively normal to talk about the practicalities of the planning, race etc but it's proving harder than you would think..... Thanks again

Cheers Rich - I'll have a look at that. I was due to have run it March / April this year so can feel his pain regarding the "wasted" training miles.

Hi, I'm in the process of training for the 2022 Marathon Des Sables (150 mile self sufficiency footrace through the Sahara) - Any ultra runners on the forum or anyone completed the race previously ? Would be good to talk training tactics, kit etc Cheers Steve

I bought a Bobcat T770 a couple of years ago and its been awesome - I have a Seppi Midi Forst mulcher and a hydraulic grapple - the machine can lift over a tonne no problem. I often get involved in situations where the trees are felled and snedded up and we go in, extract the stems to the roadside or wherever and mulch the brash - job done. Admittedly at 6 tonne its a bit of a lump to move around but in the right location its able to do a huge amount of work for a relatively small, compact machine. I work right across the UK if anyone needs a hand

£100.00

Hi Hired the machine and dumper in for the job; it involved the installation of a root barrier to a depth of 4m - trench was 300mm wide and 25m long. Took us about 3 days after we had found all of the underground utilities !

The machine with the mulching head goes out for around £70.00 + VAT per hour - I'm always willing to review the price depending on size of job
