If a LandRover doesn't leak oil, it's run out.

Hi Dave,

They are cleaning it regularly. They seem a good bunch of guys and the driver is sound enough.

A good friend of mine is doing the tree work and clearance. He offered me work for 2 machines for months on the job but I declined, I was too busy and besides its a Balfour Job, it'll be full of safety bullshit and paperwork agro! Why have that when you can work on your own terms on a country estate like Hever!

I can see you point Clive, and a big company like Balfour will probably keep you waiting when it comes to being paid as well. Best leave those jobs to the firms that want to under cut everyone and just be busy fools, i was only talking to someone from Eastbourne that closed their company down as they were constantly bing undercut by a couple of firms ( naming no names but you see them in there mases on widening jobs on the M25 etc)
