  1. you mean as opposed to sitting at home sending emails to people that are out at work and hoping one invites a random lad to come and work? watch tv, or watch climbers at work. which sounds like the better plan, if hes offering to work for free why not watch for free?
  2. assuming you have free time and ppe, drive round your local area wearing your ppe listening for the sound of chainsaws till you find someone doing some big tree work, then sit on your car bonnet and watch. youll learn and potentially someone will suggest you help out.
  3. kate beckinsale in those tight trousers in van helsing, now there was some ass art.
  4. do the high heels not get in the way of the driving?
  5. little bit. ask them to glue some back on. just at a rough guess i would have said ill take the right hand side up roughly following the outside of the conifer and match the left hand side, then see if i can take a couple of foot off the top but also your photos are from different places and dont show consistency but again it depends on what the request was for
  6. i would have said ash, and judging by that pic its got quite a bush between the legs
  7. how much management is actually needed of an ancient woodland that we assume has been there for hundreds of years already? isnt it just picking up the dead bits and cutting anything thats fallen hanging or is gonna fall? and no i dont have a damn clue cos its totally not my area.
  8. try aldi specialbuys, they have some belter cheap gear
  9. crown lift - le crown lift reduction - la reduction any other terms just speak loudly and slowly till they admit they can all speak perfect f*cking english anyway failing that just use pictures/photos and pencil diagrams
  10. FTM trans tree. stop questioning its life choices.
  11. tree workers? or will two do?
  12. nope. partly cos i cant actually see what youre indicating, just a load of stones from what i can tell
  13. am i the only one still using a 200 for takedowns and big prunes? the echo is a great saw for small prunes or topping hedges, build quality potentially not great. the stihl felt lacklustre last time i used one.
  14. in the words of captain ramsey "that strange sensation in the seat of your pants will be my boot up your ass"
  15. as dan said, somebody elses problem similiar to DFKDFC not meaning to be rude to laura by the way.
  16. we have reduced your sycamore for you. now that price we gave you was for pruning only. if you want us to take it all away its going to be another £1500
  17. stihl xflex have vent zips in type c ive got pfanner arborist and i found them quite bulky moving around in breatheflex do feel more comfy, but not noticably more breathable.
  18. insurance makes me broker
  19. stihl br800. go big or go home.
  20. sounds like HAL having a bitchfit again. keep your helmet on.
