no chance of gettin it done in a ady,way to much wood to shift

 

[teressa green]

i use local farmers ,offer to log it for them ans help them load up ,might be worth a try ,also with the rise in log burners plenty of firewood suppliers popping up all over have a ring round yellow pages ,etc ,one up here even pays 15 quid a tonne and picks up ,just a thought mate ,

is your gaffer wearing the new husqvarna limited edition see thru helmet avaliable from all good chainsaw stockists,the pratt,would tell him to get a lid on some lumps lying about ,why hasnt he chipped the brash as soon as it hits the deck ,one movement to the chipper then forgot about,just checked again ,you aint got a lid on neither ,seems pretty lax your end blue mate ,

thanks i`ve tried it but couldn`t be bothered to wait for the upload takes ages, i`m not on broadband yet so i`ll have to post some photos when i get that sorted

thanks for the advice any hoo

teressa,
the husky helmets you refer to come free from our supplier.are you tellin me that you never do anything wrong?that you follow every Hse guideline?i don't want to get into a slangin match.
why didn't he chip it as it came down?answer there is only 2 of us at the mo and i was raining branches out then he would spend 10 mins sortin it out,the picture was taken by me a couple of mins after i hit the floor then give him a hand to clear up.thats how we work.
as for not wearing a helmet in a tree i never have unless i think it would be prudent to do so.thtas just me,i hate the feckin things when climbing.
perhaps i shouldn't post anymore pics??

but i will

 

[blue]

iain,
