  1. Not an app , but could you create a blank risk assessment form on excel, save it to your phone and fill that in an email it when you need? If not we use a program called ReFlow for all our timesheets, RAMS , pretty much anything the guys may need to fill in from site, I think it was pretty pricey though .
  2. I can’t recommend Rob at Blake training enough. Really good training, very friendly and down to earth and the trees worked on are not always straight forward which I found to be beneficial when going out and applying the training to real world scenarios located near Bridgwater
  3. Mines been playing up a little , but then again my preventer ran out a couple weeks ago and I haven’t gone to get a new one yet ?
  4. i once had to deal with a very angry person who doesn’t believe in Dutch elm disease, even after I explained in great detail about how he may have some small trees in the native hedge opposite his house but they will die at some point. He was adement these trees would not die and I had made up the whole thing ?
  5. Hey, company I work for now do nearly everything paperless. We use a program called reflow. From an office point of view it makes life sooo much easier, all the info from risk assessments, check sheets, timesheets comes in, gets checked and automatically goes straight into relevant databases etc , so much quicker. From a filling it in as a team leader point of view... it’s just annoying and most of the guys prefer the old paper timesheets
  6. Hey Devon TWIG, Any chance you could point me in the direction of any ones worth seeing? I’m fairly near Exeter so to be honest have proberbly seen some but haven’t paid enough attention
  7. The risky ginkgo or over my dead body ginkgo in Hibiya Park, Tokyo. The sign underneath claims it was actually transplanted to its current position to allow for expansion of the road ? it took 25 days to move it over 400meters. For those that want to know more I think you can find it’s story on google somewhere.
  8. I found a pink vibrator on a clearance job a few years ago, strapped it to the front of the van to take a photo. We then forgot about it and ended up driving around with a pink vibrator on the front of the van for few days.
  9. Found similar bubbles on a pine tree earlier today
  10. I work for a company that does landscaping and tree surgery, and I’m currently studying for lvl 4 arb [emoji106]. Pretty varied to be honest .
  11. I am very guilty of this! Can’t really comment for others, but personally I never really no what to say and I’m happy enough just reading and learning, maybe one day il be able to pass some knowledge on, but currently probably not [emoji23]
  12. I can highly recommend Blake training for any courses , so I’m sure their loler training would be good
  13. Pretty sure Treerover has got it spot on [emoji106]
  14. I guy I work with once got 2 saws stuck..... while climbing. As punishment we made him cut them free with his silky rather than sending him up a third saw.
  15. Two Oaks that have been left standing at a site we look after. Look fantastic as silhouettes when the sun goes down.
  16. I like to put stuff away sharp so I know I can use it anytime... unless it’s the 660, sharpening that takes ages that tends to get put off until it has to be done.

    Cs39?

    There was some branch walking involved when I did mine. To be honest I think a lot of how easy or difficult performing the cuts is depends on the tree in which you are being assessed
  18. Awesome! That’s interesting, thanks. Unfortunately I’m not going back to that site any time soon so I won’t be able to check which it is. At least i will know for next time! Thanks
  19. Found this today, not sure what it is. Possibly Tremella mensenterica ???
