  1. I was very late 90s to be fair
  2. Danny is amazing at what he does , I grew up watching Hans Rey, like tricks and stunts with Martin Hayes and martyn Ashton . Looking back now it’s hilarious but at the time was amazing, then you had chainspotting with Steve Pete, Rob Warner, Will Longden Pauli’s the two martins. You gotta love the 90s [emoji41][emoji1598]
  3. Is your tw125 switch’s on top of the hopper the old round buttons? If so was the same as my old one, I used to undo the four screws to get to the wires take each one out clean and put back then a good spray with wd40 , if the seal around the control box isn’t married up water will get in, sometimes even condensation can cause it to play up also. Do you take out the relays and clean off also dirt can get in between and push em apart. Good luck
  4. I would go with what Dan said [emoji6]
  5. Ahh nice we’ve just emigrated to Sydney, and boy do these guys know how to rig down a tree, working with some great local lads and a really good team, it seems you either leave it or take it down nothing in between ?
  6. Hi Jake you in Aus?
  7. If it’s the vid I’m thinking off , still anchored in the large top he was felling he busted up a few ribs and as he fell his leg got caught in the crouch of the tree and destroyed his pelvis, he did survive the incident, but very lucky. I’ve heard quite a few horror stories since I’ve been here in Aus mostly deaths of in experience lads and guys .
  8. Foot pump normally so you can gauge the psi
  9. Hey mr stubs how you healing up buddy
  10. Hi mate, hope you have a speedy recovery, especially at your age. Take it easy mate [emoji6]
  11. I most certainly am Mr Bolam[emoji41] I’m absolutely loving and working for a great company. Everyday is job and knock and still a full days pay, can’t ask for more than that. And yeah the palms are filthy and horrible to crown raise especially when you’ve got possums in them. [emoji849]
  12. Trimming up a few palms today, to get the view back
  13. Yes
  14. Sorry, Australia.
  15. There every where over here, you can take your pick from a single cab, double cab, tippers, flatbed,the conversions I’m seeing are amazing, basically any thing you want can be made there no such thing as I can’t here. Plus the steering wheel in on the right side.
  16. Can’t believe you haven’t found anyone yet, seems a shortage of climbers and groundsmen all over as many other’s are in the same boat. Good luck though.
  17. That’s a nice looking pond, I had no idea you would have to apply for a pond in your own garden, or is it if it’s over a certain size or depth? How did the council find out about yours? Were you snitched on?
  18. Bump
  19. That’s some reach [emoji43]
  20. If ML hasn’t got it no one has, the mulching head he has is an absolute beast, among the rest of the toys [emoji43]
  21. Haha sorry don’t know who Andy is, yeah nice areas to visit haven’t been for years
  22. Nice looking tree Andy you do much work there
  23. I don’t know much about them but you can get something called a suzzi system for towing which increases your towing capacity I think they are a couple of hundred to buy , a friend of mine and TCD had one on his 57 plate hilux for towing his diggers around on.
  24. any one lost a glove
  25. Progress type A are quite heavy but the innovation are brilliant , both have good movement, I always seem to go back to sip .
