  3. Morning all. Another good day yesterday. Larch wasn't straightforward so a bit of thinking required but it came over nicely. Doing a small reduction today as a homer. Have a good one folks. MOV_1154.mp4
  4. I swear Alex has hacked your computer to send that!
  5. That reminds me of a question I had to answer to be an arbtalk member or something. What fuel goes in a chainsaw? Took me a few attempts, got it in the end though!
  6. Another thing I think is overlooked most of the time is how an individual reacts to a situation. There are cracking climbers who I'm completely convinced would get to me quickly anywhere in a tree, but so squeamish they'd be little use. Of all the talk I've heard on the subject, and the times I've had that chat with someone, "got rescue ticket", "there's the rescue kit", "designated rescuer", I've never known anyone say if the rescuer is capable psychologically. Bit like someone having the first aid+F ticket and first aid kit, it's no guarantee of urgent medical care being given proficiently.
  7. Ok, I believe you are actually up!

  9. Morning all. Frosty here, a cold clear day ahead. Kicking off today with a Larch to winch over in a community woodland. Same location as yesterday's sensitive reduction on a small Beech. MOV_1151.mp4 Have good one folks!
  10. Had a collie you couldn't keep out the water, he'd swim forever, if something sank he'd snorkel for it with his head fully submerged. Anyway back on topic, nice twig spandit! Well heavy for its size πŸ‘
  11. Morning all. Had an early start this morning to tip off yesterday's trailer. Tend to enjoy opening the door to see what the picture of the day is, bit like one of those sand landscape picture frames. Have a good one folks.

  13. Had some interesting work lately, today didn't disappoint. Windblown Poplar onto the back of a medical centre. Big day mentally, less so physically. MOV_1143.mp4 MOV_1145.mp4
  14. No thanks, you're confusing me with Big J! Left at half 6 this morning, just back in the door, if you think I'm adding 5hrs peddling to that you're loopy Les πŸ˜‚
  15. It'd be more viable than bus or train anyway Alex! Fortunately between borrowing my (most excellent) mate's van and Mr Boss being kind enough to give me a work motor in the meantime I'm coping.
  16. Just keep looking at the fault codes!
  17. I'll rescue you Mark, you're worth it. I'd miss your vibe on the wordle thread otherwise!

  19. That was my first, second and third thought, but the pickup guru mechanic that looks after her (we refer to him as her uncle), said no. Uncle Geoff is as gutted as me!
  20. Nothing could ever replace her!
  21. Hope this is appropriate but I've suffered a loss. RIP Tilly, my trusty '07 L200 Animal. Got her 2014 for Β£7k with 70k mls on the clock. She took me around the UK for work, over the channel a couple of times for le work, and looked after a dozen or more fostered dogs plus pet ones in her time, and she's done it all with aplomb. Yesterday, at 17yrs old and just over 180k mls she was pronounced dead, cracked cylinder head πŸ˜”. She'll be sadly missed. (and was camera shy)

  24. Makes more sense than... Fur ignored. Or... For e naw wed (Scots for bachelor).
  25. Think I usually end up getting them, not all of them by any means. This one I've no clue and it's under my skin now!
