  1. Yeah I meant just helping to get it sectioned up! I’d want a kiss/kisses to help mill it as well.
  2. Where are you in the country? Someone might give you a hand for a chat and cup of tea!
  3. I’m very jealous of the guys who have made it work for them! I had visions of my vizsla being a work dog however totally the wrong breed! I was aware of their specific breed characteristics however thought I could train him….. I was wrong! Thankfully the wife works from home mostly so it worked out but point of the post is really pay attention to the breed and how you can make sure his/her life is fulfilled not the other way around.
  4. So do I but I choose to set my own terms with companies and do not hold the accreditations. What’s the point of holding a subscribed accreditation when companies still have their own hoops to jump through!? I don’t need someone to show a client that I have a modern slavery agreement because here you go I just emailed it to you along with everything else you require, only took me 30secs to email and I’ve saved myself thousands.
  5. Just have a chat with the client, suggest you can fulfil the criteria required and explain that you don’t need to pay a subscription service to do so. This approach has always worked with my commercial clients (multiple housing developers) and like yourself I refuse to pay for a service that ticks a box for me that I can tick myself. Of course it has stopped me bidding for large contracts but I don’t want that type of works as it’s crap.

    The Boxing .

    Haha his legacy - he doesn’t care about his legacy. The man spends most of his time out of his box on numerous podcasts pushing his new cannabis products. As I said it will go the distance as Jake will have paid him for it to do so, otherwise his strength and knowledge would spark Jake inside 2 minutes. It’s orchestrated heavily, like everything/fights in his life - Jake is a boxer he trains continuously but he also doesn’t fight (relevant)boxers because he would of folded out of the limelight along time ago. Even with age against him, Mike will see his right 10mins before he throws it!

    The Boxing .

    Jake Paul will have paid Mike to go easy and lose - Mike doesn’t care because who’s gonna say he’s shit? Plus he gets a massive payday. If it wasn’t rigged Mike would go all out for 2 mins and end it first round.
  8. THIS ADVERT HAS EXPIRED!

    • FOR SALE
    • USED

    Vermeer s725tx (full spec on Vermeer website). 2016- 670hrs new track motor and idler on both sides and also a new valve block (2.5k) so it’s ready for work. It has been used as intended so the paint is as you would expect from a working machine. Price is for the Vermeer s725tx base machine, log grab (LG 46) and bucket plus vat. The Tajfun 35a is not included with the sale but can be at additional cost along with the mounting bracket @ 2.5k + VAT (again used but not battered)

    £20,000

  9. In todays world people would rather complain and accept being poor/poorer than do something about making themselves richer. Yes, previous generations had a lucky break with house prices etc but we have never had it easier to up-skill/move around/travel/borrow money/enter higher level education - the list goes on and on! In line with OP - I am 34, own a house, a business and have worked abroad but I’ve changed careers (construction to arb/ecology). As the op suggests I’ve worked hard and at my age I'm pretty happy but I’ve have to retrain and move away from family to realise the above.
  10. In that case - Green plant uk based in Guildford hire out Energreens (great to deal with)
  11. Cheer Mark. Similar to John happy to travel but depends on the size of the job, down your way quite abit though. Feel free to drop me a message
  12. Most flails are between 1.3-1.6/8. Where abouts are you? I’ve got a machine for hire with operator.
  13. Talk to your client/company - as another post says it’s unsustainable and ultimately shit return. Charge for your travel (include depreciation, fuel etc). If I was hiring a subcontractor and was expecting them to travel that far for a job I would let them know location and await their day rate
  14. Hi All, Getting to a point where it’s looking viable to purchase a 14t excavator, anyone open to have a chat about dos/donts, what to look for on a machine and spec I should be looking at for arb work. I’ve primarily used a kobelco sk140 over the years (hired in) seems a decent machine but I’d like to know ins and outs of maintenance/costs etc. TIA
  15. I’m probably gonna go second hand, as my choice is bobcat but don’t want to pay top whack as currently it’ll be an occasional machine. Have you had a go in a doosan dx27z heard they’re practically the same machine as the bobcat. I just missed out on your e27 would have loved it!
