no ive not decided either way about av, I was talking about the local council elections which are held on the same day

Yes, this country is broke. We need to save money and it has to come from somewhere. How many of you are going to vote in your local elections next week? Here we have a choice between an independent candidate, currently serving, who actually does stuff for the local area, or alternatively we have a local labor councillor who over the last 10 years has claimed £200,000 in expenses between him and wife. If you are voting next week and you have chance, ask them how much they claim as this is where to start cutting costs. Rant, rant, rant - that feels better!

its more hassel than its worth they wont pay

so am i

i sold some and he had wood wasps flying around living room that made his wife jump

to keep it carbon nutral will he deliver it on foot

go to arb north its free. whats happend to the banner its just a x in the corner

i like the one the man down the road will deliver 10 ton split to me for £20 .i reply why have you come here .they always say he not there anymore i wonder why my favourite one is they are only logs you get them free

rope cut into short strands makes great hair on a carved head

just google it and compare

Nice website, well designed and to the point. My wife (I know nothing of these things!) says the email issue is because you've just got a link to your email address, and when someone clicks on it, it fires up outlook/outlook express etc (which ever email client is installed and in use). As Steve rightly says, if the person viewing the website doesn't an email program on their pc then it will not work. Two things to suggest - 1. display the email address rather than the word email (then people can write it down if they want to, or copy and paste it into their web-based email system to email you), or 2. put a contact/enquiry form on the page as well, so that people can send you their name, telephone, email, enquiry etc. I've got an enquiry form on mine and get enquiries every week through it (sometimes find people are happier to send me their details than to pick up the phone, particularly if they're browsing on evenings / weekends). Don't forget to put your website address on everything - truck, business cards, letterhead, adverts etc - and also make sure that you are getting plenty of visits via the search engines as this is where a website will really help you. I've had a website for my business since 2001 and wouldn't be without one.

if you buy log ask for them to inc delivery in the price i buy mine from tilhill mite be worth a call they work all over the country i agree larch is good

i have a kindlet joinery off cut are better as they take no drying and come cheap if not free i leave dumpy bags they fill them and i collect works well

ive got a farmi firewood processor cuts up to 15inch

hi i cut my logs at whatever the customer wants from 6 to 18 inch as for drying its upto customer i tell all new ones to make the biggest pile of logs they can when you they get down to half order more let nature do the drying a good thing to have is a stove thermometer and lots of kindling

sorry to here about your kit being stolen if the police do catch them all they will get is slap on wrists £20 fine 10 years to pay it off and 10 hour community service picking up litter on a nice day shame about the dog its a good the dog did not get them as you would be in a cell and the dog putto sleep thats british justice

this book is a good read. its an auto biography of an old forester, he is well known but writes under another name. its called "falling for it: the apprenticeship" by geoff surtees

nice furniture will try this i sell mine on line http://www.willowwoodlandproducts.co.uk

hi steve i prefer no debt as when works quiet i dont have lots of people shouting for money. however in genral i would say aim for no more than the equivalent of 30 day turnover . the only exeception being hp where the the second hand sale price of your assets should always be greater than what you still owe ,the same applies to a business bank loan for equipment .

Nice site. Only thing I would suggest to improve is that you can't tell where you are and this tends to be the first thing that a potential customer would need to know - ie Cheshire is a big place. Plus I think putting an address (and landline telephone number) helps you to look like a real business.

try tilhil i buy timber off them you will have to buy 25 ton

Can you post the link so we can have a look at your new website

i have a trailed firewood processor and only hire it out with opperator its £220 day can do about 10 to 12 ton with a second person helping cuts ut to 15 inch
