jok 3,035 Posted November 29, 2021 Report Share Posted November 29, 2021 Bloody brilliant mate. The lad needs all the help he can get. I ran a marquee business which inevitably went quiet late autumn and winter, I started logging and didn’t regret one minute of it. Following COVID my business (for sale if he really fancies a challenge) is up for grabs. Jok. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you Mate, oh we have enough fall outs about "get off that bloody console now!!" and "get your lazy ass out of bed etc"... he's typical teenage lad mate.... but he's determined little bugger, so if he has to put some graft in for something he will... he done 3 weeks with me building our little AIR devices when we started them, earnt himself a surf board.... I guess it pays off in the end mate... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you, I won't mention the business proposition mate...he'd be asking me to take him for a look! lol Glad it's going well for you, there seems to be a real boom with the logs, everyone has wood burners, fire pits or just storing logs for decoration... we felled 30 odd trees a couple of years back so there is a fair amount still to be processed here, should keep him out of trouble!! lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
