  3. Dont break yourself Conor!! Family first! (Loose term to some, so i’ll rephrase slightly and say.... immediate family first!) work 2nd!! [emoji106]
  4. Lad i work with used to work at local Mercedes dealer near us in Blackburn, apparently they used to fit new engines to the ambulances every 2 or 3 yrs?!! [emoji848] (cant remember for sure, shall ask him tomoz at work) so regardless of mileage on your dash, it may even of had a new work horse fitted! [emoji15][emoji6] all part of reliability and maintenance programme.... [emoji108]not to be sniffed at if thats the case. Only downside to a Merc is the bodywork really, but if ya catch it early enough and get a reight job done, then jobs reight! Dont forget to post your progress pics [emoji6][emoji106][emoji106]
  5. Afternoon job then! [emoji6]?
  6. Snap!!! ? back to the daytime graft tomoz for a rest after my week off! Look forward to it if you get chance [emoji106]
  7. Cracking scenery! [emoji108] and even better with a river/waterfall in the mix! We got rivers round here but lacking in the waterfalls department unless your willing to take a car journey.
  8. Honey bees! A worthy subject for all to know i rekon?! Start a new thread about it Conor?! [emoji6][emoji849]
  9. Bet they’re loyal to the hilt! Great looking pair. Looking quite sleepy though, what age are they Mark 9-10?
  10. Hell fire! [emoji33][emoji33][emoji33] thats a proper dose of fungi arounds its base! Do tell?! [emoji848]
  11. Everyone deserves an opinion on any situation. Even Vesp (not defending in any way!) should be entitled...... BUT... there becomes a point when something has to give! Vesp appears to be beyond help and advice a lot of the time unfortunately! I apologise to all for retaliating and giving him what for.... but he damn right annoys me when he applies his “me me me” know it all attitude!!! I’m an outsider to the industry and have probably said before on other occasions, that i enjoy the knowledge of those on here and try to learn from them what has been said/suggested. Apologies to AWarb00 for the butting in and slagging off off the [emoji931][emoji773]?[emoji106]
  12. That was me! [emoji137]‍♂️ ?
  13. He is the boss you chimping plankton!!!
  14. Loving the weather today! Got cracked on this morning, good pal of mine gave me a lift early doors to put ridge beam up in situ. Got first lot of rafters up [emoji106] Jobs stopped now though, the Mrs is back off her weekend jollies... ordered to get tea on so tools down and mobile cooker out Refreshments included obviously! [emoji106] All beats being stuck at side of the road i guess! [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]??

  18. Oil tit head! That stuff that your so against Andy suppling for ya!
  19. Open the back of your van!.... Errr.... no! You’d probably drug me and try to infuse me with the “vesp power” all youtubes and intergalactic Italian emperor stories!
  20. The proper stuff yeah, if you wana buy it in strong form (farmers grade as i call it) ya need proof of id and a sprayers licence i believe. Similar type things have followed suit too i think, things like kurtail for marestail... (not being derogatory to the genuine honest ones out there, only Vesp) a good gardener would know.
  21. No comment!
  22. Suppose its nearest he’ll get seen as they’ve banned glyphosate over the counter! Chuffing ?!!!
  23. Bet he hasn’t got a self propelled mower!.... bets its a “push” mower [emoji6] can’t afford one cos hes a part time grass cutter who spends most of his time ont settee smoking rollups and drinking earl grey tea cos he thinks hes important!
  24. Vesp does his homework too ya know! On allsorts from fruit of the loom t-shirts to tree dismantles (wearing said t-shirts!) hes a youtube whizz ya know?! Has lots of traveller friends that he buys things off, has a knackered truck with a payload of..... sounds like less than a ton [emoji15][emoji849] may as well buy my old van off me (minus the chickens) knows how to trim a hedge for the old dear up the cul-de-sac........ hes a proper knowledgable bloke ya know Andy, so STOP taking the piss out of him and damn well take him seriously will you!!! you’ll always be in the wrong!
  25. Nope... YOUR WRONG AGAIN ya [emoji931][emoji773] Never said i did tree work. Simply said if a tree had come down in a farmers field or the likes, then i may get a call asking me to come cut it up. Rewards come in firewood for me, a lot of enjoyment from using my saws, some sawdust for the livestock, and a happy person thats got a job done for em. Therefore.... the takedown is already done for me. The only issues i have to contemplate is if they are hung up on a wall or something, sat under tension etc. As of yet i’ve managed ok, occasionally i have called upon a friend to assist had i been a little unsure, but not had a issue really yet. I am aware though that trees can be as lethal led down as they are stood up... are you?!
