  1. And to yourself Ted
  2. Morning all. Yesterday was unproductive, you know those days when you'd have been better staying in bed! Shear pins, pto's, hydraulic hoses, cooling systems. A long day and not much went well. Another day today though, and things can only get better. Storm damaged Crack Willow for a change, it's a mess looking at the spec, but what can go wrong... At least the itching has subsided! Have a good one folks.

  4. No water Stubby, hadn't thought of a spider...
  5. Horse fly is definitely the prime suspect. Certainly not midges. Surprised I didn't feel its hooves when it landed on my arm to be honest.
  6. Morning all. Good day forecast. Hoping not to get bitten today, something had a feed on my arm already this week and it's bloody itching. Interestingly running hot water over it stops the itch for a few hours, no idea how it works but top tip! Finished cutting windblow yesterday, the fun bit is done, got a row of brash to chip today and a final clear up. Have a good one folks.

  8. Tipped a skip load of chip in a playground today for a nursery school, the woman came and asked for it to put on the muddy areas. @Hel66, you could try asking firewood suppliers. If they process their own logs they should have bits in their yard that would suit you.

  13. Morning all. Looking forward to today, multiple windblow with winch and heizo, an enjoyable, engaging day awaits Have a good one folks.

  15. I'd think fell and replace is probably best. If you are particularly attached to them you could support the trunk with something to stabilise, and pruning would probably help with that. For me they'd need to have great sentimental value to bother with that.
  16. I had an easier load than that the other morning. At least the appropriate lorry came to us!
  17. And I thought she'd been painfully slow getting the first cup!

  19. The ground people will dread it too, picking up armfuls of little bits while you dream of an actual branch to drag isn't the most fun. Morning all. Sun streaming through the window again but it's cold with the wind. We went up on the moor for a walk last night (without a dog 😞, but plenty good memories to talk about) and a gritter was out doing the rounds. I get the feeling that like previous years we might be getting another long, dry spring, into a wetter and windy summer that morphs into a wet, windy autumn... Have a good one folks.
  20. All the same Pete, it's nice talking to you!
  21. You're just embarrassed by your t-shirt tan!
