Tim harris replied to Tim harris's discussion Trailers for ride on mowers

"Yes that's what I've done. I've got a Ifor p8E and a tow hitch on the zero turn. Worked well the other day when doing a big leaf clean up. Filled the trailer and pulled it to the giant compost heap. Loads quicker "

Peter Davis replied to Tim harris's discussion Trailers for ride on mowers

"When I did grass cutting I had a trailer for the ride on that I could tow behind it when needed. So I used the same trailer to transport the machine & to use on site to move materials around."

Peter Davis replied to Billybop's discussion Heated Jackets

"They are a total game changer. I started off with a Milwaukee heated hoodie. It's good but bulky. I now use a Milwaukee heated gilet & it's perfect.
Gardening involves some very active jobs & some where you are standing around. The gilet means…"

Peter Davis replied to Oliver clarkson's discussion Dog in van at work.

"My Lab Collie cross comes with me every day since he was a pup. He loves it & gets excited when I put my work boots on. I keep him in a dog crate so that he is secure even with all the doors open - perfect on warmer days."

Peter replied to Oliver clarkson's discussion Dog in van at work.

"We are getting a puppy soon so been reading this with interest as I'll probably end up taking her to work with me on some jobs (not till she's much older and trained though as it could be a disaster). "

Billybop replied to Stephen r Brook-Smith's discussion Any ideas

"i would gently push the rutted sides in towards the middle, for now. The soil has been compressed, it looks ruined but will naturally decompress, given time it will recover to a surprising extent. If it was drier and earlier in the season I might…"

PETER C replied to Stephen r Brook-Smith's discussion Any ideas

"I agree with Martin. No soil ( or very little soil ) has actually been removed from the area so it shouldn't require any to be brought in. I use a fork to lift the compacted area and then try and push the ridges to the sides underneath. If…"

Peter sellers replied to Peter sellers's discussion 19 inch roller mower

"Following other suggestions, finally found a localish masport dealer with stock. Big disappointment, there's a handle bracing bar almost level with the grass box which makes taking it off awkward and putting it back on a work of art! The box is on…"

Martin Squires replied to Stephen r Brook-Smith's discussion Any ideas

"Hi
im afraid that to really repair this youll need to decompress the soil in the rut as much as possible and then push the displaced turf over this otherwise, as previously metioned, it will fill with water along the compacted rut.
hope that helps

MF Hodgson replied to Oliver clarkson's discussion Dog in van at work.

"If I still had a dog I'd absolutely love to take him to work! One thing I'll say, though - where I work there's a meadow with sheep just below the garden and a while back a young shepherd came to check on them. He'd got his dog with him and he left…"

Jake Piechowicz replied to Stephen r Brook-Smith's discussion Any ideas

"Biggest problem we've found is that you fill it in and make it lovely but as soon as we get some heavy downpours the soil has been so heavily compacted by the lorry its becomes waterlogged almost immediately 🤦‍♂️🙈"

Stephen r Brook-Smith replied to Stephen r Brook-Smith's discussion Any ideas

"That's great Thankyou for the advice , it is a large area and it's an insurance job so budget is fine , going to order a load of soil , cheers "

Billybop replied to Peter sellers's discussion Bargain secateurs

"i find a metal detector useful in these incidents, also go over the actual bags of garden waste with it. The solution for me is that the secateurs are always put in the exact same door pocket of the truck after each job, if possible"
