[unimog]

Ross, Sorry to hear, something like that puts everything into perspective. Work to live never live for work.

 

[Buzzlightyear]

Unimog, what unimog do you have then ??

 

[Ross Turner]

Thanks guys the missus & i are fine considering.
The boss has even giving me the day off.

 

[PRUNER 1]

hi guys, who does your loler inspections and roughly how much per kit do they charge? is it a day rate or dependent on how much kit you have? also are any of you guys nptc assessors and if so do you get steady work from it?

 

[Ross Turner]

Looking for a new harness,Needs to have floating d`s any recomendations.
Thanks.

 

[SteveBullman]

i have the butterfly 2.
no real complaints with it except it doesnt seem to be wearing as well as my previous butterfly1, although i am climbing a whole lot more these days.
i loved the tree magic and might consider getting the new toughened version, its a slick harness.
if you're doing line clearance ross i'd say the tree magic would be a good harness because you wont be doing much big removal work right?

 

[Ross Turner]

Hi Steve,I have looked at the Tree Magic & am not sure about the bridge for the sliding D.
We still do large Take downs even on line clearance.lol

 

[ROLLACOSTA]

so what have you guys been up to ?

 

[Buzzlightyear]

so what have you guys been up to ?

Not a great deal really !! Starting a 3 day take down tomorrow and looking at scrub clearance all day Friday, fingers crossed !!

 

[Ross Turner]

Must be busy! I heard Brian Owen (access Hire) was trying to take over the MEB contract. Is Kier working direct?

 

[Ross Turner]

Thor,he works on behalf of Westcoast,Where did you here about Access trying to take over??
Most of there guys are sub contractors running in access colours so i believe.

 

[ROLLACOSTA]

Ross will the boss be buying a brand new mog???

 

[Buzzlightyear]

[Ross Turner]

split

oh well after 5 1/2 years together, my girlfriend and i have called it a day, we were growing apart and having the same arguments time and time again. we figured that being single, happy and friends was better than trying to stick it out, and ending up unhappy and hating each other.

so we now have to stick it out for a while, live together and get used to not being a couple until we can sell the house and go our seperate ways.....makes tree work seem easy and un stressful

cheers

jamie
