Dedication, respect and pride in a job is a failing characteristic now a days Mark. Good to see and hear someone like yourself still willing to voice and promote your thoughts/beliefs! Ask a young one these days how they feel about their job/career......... their answers wont shine like yours! They want a lot more for a shit load less dedication, respect, gratitude, etc etc!

Spot on! Just how i see it, “Whats in the cats in the kittens” as they say! It all starts at home with the parents/parenting i rekon!

Forest plus is mineral based oil, Synthplus is a semi synthetic made oil, i wouldnt mix them personally, i’d just use them up one at once. As i understand, if you mix mineral and synthetic oils together then generally they will always revert to the lowest grade, i.e mineral and you will lose lubrication qualities as a result.

You’ll av to be patient with him Funky munkey, hes a little slow these days, hes getting old [emoji6][emoji23] He will reply eventually though.

We run air suspension on all our arctic tractor units and trailers obviously, as regards retro fitting air suspension to regular cars/vans/pickups/suv’s etc, i’m not up on the legislation side of things but do often here of only good reports from doing so. A lot comment on the handling feels more positive and less wallowing at the rear, towing is far more tolerable and forgiving apparently. And again i’m not 100% sure but think you can get plated weight gains from it also. Others may be able to advise more. Only bad review regards air suspension was on my mates P38 RangeRover..... but were just a garbage setup full stop [emoji23][emoji23]

Mate of mine put a set of uprated leaf springs on his hilux, was a 1999 T-reg single cab, made it a bit more rigid/bouncy on the rear when empty but he never drives like a loon so was bearable. Made a huge difference when he loaded up with wood or put ifor plant trailer on with mini digger etc. Can only assume youd be able to get a uprated version/set for yours?! May be worth a look, easy to fit yourself too.

Stopped em back end of 2015, thats what i’ll be looking at, possibly a 2014 if mileage is ultra low.

I’m a leaver J, brought up on a farm, seen the heritage of farming go down the pan due to many pressings of the EU. Everyone blames the latest government for all the latest issues.... the rot set in years ago with many past/previous governments/parliament decisions. We need “discipline” from our government/parliament decisions, but that needs to come from within the UK only, theres too much dictatorship from outside the UK..... i.e the EU which is creating nearly all our sniping/back stabbing etc. If we were set to our own devises then we could iron a lot of the shite out no problem. But this brexit mess needs tending to first! I believe we can and will be self sufficient and self supporting again to our own, to a very high percentage once we actually cut the ropes. We can never be 100% self sufficient though, as is everywhere else in the world, there is always something else we need that others have and we dont, and vice versa, but trade creates income, and thats a positive straight off!

Agree with you there! Shambolic fuck up is what this last few months has been. Until there is a majority agreement amongst MP’s like you say, then it will continue to be a backwards flowing current with many huge ripples slowing/complicating everything down even further!

Their “surplus” will fall dramatically when the UK stops contributing so heavily to the EU, i’d go so much as to say.... i think the Germans are big bullies within the EU. Time will tell of course.

Looks very content here....

Background to the HSE decision on two rope working
Ratman replied to kevinjohnsonmbe's topic in Training & education
Trouble is..... he is highly opinionated with everything/all.... sad really!!! He may be a very well experienced arborist (which i am not) and if he is, then fair play, but he lacks the discipline of friendly and reasonable debate!!! “Chuckin” his toys out only emphasises this! I’ll keep pokin the “bear” thanks! [emoji23] -
Hawk eye you!!! [emoji6][emoji102][emoji23]

I hate it when......[emoji51][emoji51][emoji51] in a soft kinda way, you strike up debate with a know it all..... and the thread goes a bit stale and stagnant???! Whats that all about?

Take my hat off to you guys, i can’t even pronounce em.... let alone remember em! Its a fascinating subject and for years have always wondered why “mushrooms” grew around/on trees! [emoji23][emoji23]

Dont mind opinionated people Kev, we’re all here to share views and give debates etc..... hey its an open forum and eveyones welcome, but Mr “Scotswhine” is never wrong and only sees things from his own prospective! I’d kinda put him in Vesp territory... ? but now i’m kinda feeling sorry for Vesp! After previous debates and fate regarding a few life decisions that my partner and myself have had to endure, Mr idiot tells me that we were wrong to do so with our decisions, yada yada yada! So as they say in the den, for these reasons stated above..... i’m out! [emoji23][emoji23] I’ll never agree with the TIT ever again. [emoji106]
