  1. That's why they want us to join again, bail them out, because most of the EU is financially buggered like Greece
  2. Well done, that's what the EU wanted, however so much gumph is governed by Europe, that I didn't want or need why should be part of it? After all wasn't the EU set up because people were so scared by Hitler? Look at it now you have the Americans causing gawd knows how many wars indirectly and directly.. Think middle East, Afghanistan, Iraq all caused by America, yet the EU never said whoa, you shouldn't be meddling in that, the EU hasn't said jesus India and packistan, guys both stop being twats - there both nuclear superpowers. So really the gumph that it was set up to stop wars or anything similar. I need to research the serbs and croates and nato before I comment on that, But it's always the English that seem to fix stuff, along with the common wealth. And regarding special treatment, I doubt it.. Just want a level playing feild, non of this woke crap... Or stupid eu directives when we're not in friking Europe! Got to laugh.. Kiers a good English name.... Not. What I have to ask is if Europe is so good, why do you reside in the UK and moan about it?
  3. You do a big disservice to your argument, when you refer to people as ill informed or plain stupid, whether u wanted to stay in or stay out... That was democracy. It's like people voting labour and then wondering why things are going wrong. Got to be careful what you wish for... Somethings will bite you on the arse
  4. But wether people like it or not, we voted to leave and thats it, but I see things differently even though our heritage is Scandinavian. I see a country that didn't like that we won the war, and for ever than a day that will be heald against us.. But they use legislation laws to control the outcome.. Quite pathetic really... Like I said if we were going to trade with them, keep it like the eec. And if the UK wants to go back in then do it democratically. We still need to erase the human rights crap and deport people who have come hear illegally
  5. Theyve nicked cadburys, mf tractors and plant and stuff like the new defender
  6. The EU would have been better as the original trading block Ted heath kept as, not this weird system that dictates are rules and laws. The is so much governed by the EU... Even the tipper body on a truck has to be eu type approved.. I think what bugs me is the way the EU gave a grant to move cadburys to Poland, when if cadburys wanted to move there then they should of funded it, not poached by the EU. The brexit deal was crap, mainly because people weren't honest on both sides of the deal... And we have spineless politicians that never brought the deal we deserved. Democracy was served, we voted to leave so therefore that's it.. Not some sly backhanded get us back in because the remoaners don't agree with what happend. Any one that votes Labour needs to remember that when ever they get in things will go wrong... 2003 we got dragged into afghan? Why it's not our problem! As goes for the EU and open door policy maybe ask the victims of Munich Christmas Market how that went, and the people in sweden, where the indigenous people are getting harassed or abused to wear the burkha. U look at England and we can't even get rid of the human rights act... Which stops us deporting scroats, it allows people in prison to sue the moj... And all the wokies, are now kicking off because they think nigel ferage is the next Hitler... Yet all he's stated is what the other parties should have done to start with and we wouldn't be in this mess now...
  7. Depends what he's trying to make or produce, as to which investor would want to fund it.... Each investor has a different thing they'd want to fund and sponsor, 9 times out of ten for their pittance of investment they'd want their pound of flesh and some.... Go to the bank.... If it's that far fetched and expensive, guarantee it's non viable to start with
  8. I've brought a lidl one, just for really crap chains, where you wear out files Trying to get a chain right. However I'm with Dan blocker, ex boss used to bench sharpen chains, they were never as good as me filing by eye and also the chains producing the perfect shaving
  9. It's the Thames Valley power group or was, based in Didcot, took everything, paid for it I used to deal with them about ten years ago, when I was going to set up a tip site between the local 2 man teams of tree surgeons... But the local ones were a bit dense so it never took off, but they were paying £21 a cube for anything, including that they supplied the bulker... All I had to do is get paid. The problem is most tree surgery set ups are small, unless you get into the big boys and then they'd not entertain you because they all ready have biomass contracts. Most small business's don't have a yard or if they do it's not suitable to have an artic on or a skip or hook loader/ roro. Then they don't have decent kit to load it either. Most tree surgeons don't understand that the quicker the waste is gone the quicker they get paid.... But most of them drag the job out to make it seem bigger than what it is. So that rules out supplying a skip to site. Better off looking at woodlots and seeing if thes a forester selling thinnings off cheap... But thes no such thing as cheap timber anymore, thanks to green energy and renewable shite. Can you not accept pallets and screen nails out of them? There kiln dried and also thes loads of skip company's desperate of that type of timber! Never be short and they'd pay to get rid of it, not the other way around. Woodwaste local pro tip costs £100 a ton to get rid of, also recycling sites can't get rid of timber quick enough sometimes so thes huge heaps of shredded Woodwaste, de nailed no contaminants in sat on yards as as soon as the supplier doesn't want it the recycling company is stuck with it!
  10. It won't happen, as Didcot gobbles all green waste, including sweepings, chunks of logs and woodchip and because they won't have to pay haulage they'll pay alot more for everything that you won't take. That's how it is there. It's absolutely silly....
  11. Laburnum, with the log below it being Scots pine or oak,
  12. Wrong bark for cedar, deffo oak
  13. Just get a decent book keeper, and yes you do get tax rebates if you do enough site work....
  14. Use aspen or moto mix, then you can't go wrong... I'm shite at ratios also
  15. Use the cheap plastic rocwood ones, doesn't damage the thread of the machine, and cheaper to replace than a thread
  16. We've ash dieback specimen on the front of the house, next doors ash close to their house isn't infected although I wish it was!
  17. Are you doing the holzforma /farmertec clone of the hs models of hedge trimmers?
  18. Bet u a used engine for a transit is peanuts compared to buying a new knacker, transits are peanuts to keep going
  19. Nice regular pollards, suggest you research arboriculture before you claim it's butchery... Also want to say that was very nicely done work
  20. Blackthorn is the first image, we've got it on the yard, and the other looks like fresh alder before it turns orange
  21. Inder 18 Sharp bladed article ebay
  22. I had someone once, that I was on the ground, he was section felling using a 36" saw (mine) I told him to stop cutting.. And get out the tree, 2ice he cut through his climbing line.. Fully qualified and less experianced than me.. He ignored me... Some times you can't tell people.
  23. I knew it was one of those brands, hence why I said some digging needed, I believe I looked at that machine a while ago because it was being sold with a faulty gearbox... It was rebadged. I'm sure bcs did handle valpadana at one point, but it was blue..... Saw one once for sale on FB.. But parts where available from bcs or valpadana... We looked into it but after research and being told it'd be an expensive repair.. I stayed away!
  24. You need to do some digging, I looked at one of these tractors, I belive you can still get the part as I made a phone call to mccormic and you could, but also I did see one of the other alpine tractor brands poss bcs (blue) that was the the identical copy of the red mccormic. Bcs, alpine, Ferrari and mccormic were all the same at one point
  25. Yeah I got that thanks, it is a chain that is fitted correctly, I've got the next problem, I've found the right sprocket via your link.. How ever looking at the saw thes a toothed collar which the sprocket fits into 7 tooth geared thing, echo list another one but I've had to email a dealer as it seems the are two collars, both with the last three numbers different, if this cog is 6 toothed and the others 7 then finally I can get the sprocket changed and put a thinner bar on! Thanks so far
