  1. Sorry paul, seem to of hi jacked your thread [emoji849]
  2. When I first moved down here I was traveling up near honiton for a guy which is a 50 mile trip each way, sometimes we have to do what we have to do and go where the work is
  3. I’m sure if I stayed in Northampton the price would be different again. But choose a nice part of the world to live in but not so great in the wage department. But still wouldn’t change it[emoji6]
  4. Yup radio X always starts my day off but leave the house and become lost in the crap on the radio. I’m mid thirties going on fifty I reckon [emoji20]
  5. As joe said earlier location pays a big part in all our prices
  6. Wow guys you would all be homeless working in Plymouth, top rate for subby climbing down here is £110-130 a day or one man and a chipper around £200 mark roughly. But I don’t know any subby that’s getting paid over the £130 mark
  7. I know Chris moyles was like marmite but I thought he was oaky, haven’t listened to radio1 since he left, I catch him a bit while making pack up and breakfast. I have heart fm on in the truck at the moment but they drive me insane, but really struggling to find a decent station as have no DAB in the truck, mid thirties is a difficult phase I think for finding a decent station as I’m to young for any other bbc stations [emoji6]
  8. Mine cost 2k , 4 yrs ago and was through the company I bought my truck from Watford commercials. But I would avoid using them, but the guys they got to do the conversion were ok.

  10. Seats face forward, and the back was made up from the company I brought the truck from in Watford over 4 yrs ago
  11. I’m only ever towing a TW125 chipper and even when loaded can’t feel much difference, the chip capacity is just under four cube for woodchip
  12. I have a 09 hilux extra cab which I use everyday for work and with the family, I can still get my two kids car seats safely in the back. Never had any issues with it, but I guess you adapt and get used to what you have.
