Andrew Betteridge replied to Rob's discussion Accurate costing for tree work

"If it took a day and a half, what did you do for the other half a day and did you earn another half a days money?
If you didn't earn another half a day's money, then it really took two days, didn't it?"

Anthony Toop replied to Tim Bucknall's discussion E10 petrol

"I use E10 in the mower (Etesia) as well as for the 2 stroke mix, but i do buy a fully synthetic 2 stroke racing oil and have not had any issues. I don't bother to drain anything as i use a stabiliser additive in the winter which seems to do the job."

Graham Taylor replied to Rob's discussion Accurate costing for tree work

"£850?? You're joking! An experienced tree surgeon with a chipper and grinder would get the whole job done easily in under an hour.... probably less.and charge in the region of £400 Unfortunately, Rob didn't have a chipper which increased…"

Honey Badger replied to Tim Bucknall's discussion E10 petrol

"I only use e5 in my regular machines, then aspinol in occasional use machines and for storage. The stihl green 2 stroke oil has stabilisers in it, also run cleaner than the red.
E10 is junk, I put it in my Mrs car once the performance was terrible. "

John Keighley replied to Tim Bucknall's discussion E10 petrol

"I have noticed when you open your fuel can to refuel, (when the can's been in the back of a warm van) you don't now get so much of the inrush of pressure. I presume this means the new fuel isn't so volatile as the old, does this lead to performance…"

Andrew . Perkins replied to Tim Bucknall's discussion E10 petrol

Leaving aside the obvious element of danger and personal risk, there's also a high cost involved…"

Dave F replied to Rob's discussion Accurate costing for tree work

"And that is exactly why I avoid tree work and leave it to the tree surgeons.
There's enough ground level work out there for us garden maintenance guys......I stay in my lane!"
