logging in ireland..including a 395 xp ruined

[alanmurt]

1: many trees where cut to build ships in defense against the Spanish, French, and whoever the Brits thought consituted a threat...

2: more where cut to provide grazing land for sheep.

3: whatever was left was burned by Sir Oliver Cromwell so that those Irish still alive and not sold as slaves in the Carribean couldn't heat there homes or hide in the bushes and fight back, hence the term to hell or conoughct (spelling...) note it didn't work...

The trucks are flat nosed and run short logs... with a loader in the middle.

*connaught*, close enough...yeah you've got the jist of it there with cromwell..but in saying that, these days it's the irish politicians themselves thats screwing ireland....anyway, back to timber

 

[bustedup]

i'm aware of that..i wouldn't mind trying it over there...surely the money cant be any worse than here..

Different world bro........Eh bit controversial this but ifn ya fall GOL style then ya might not wanna go to the PNW lol .......also ya might want to get used to running bigger bars lol........best of luck to ya tho getting a visa might not be so easy .......it costs a bit for comp to sponsor ya

Alan, in the one picture, I see trees rubbed up at the base. Why for?

Thanks for the pictures! One day, I want to go see the Emerald Isle and after that, Scotland. I have Irish, Scot, Welsh, and plain old English in me, with some Norse too. I think I would never want to leave if I get there..

The Emerald Isle has an appeal to me too. My wife is Irish. That makes me Irish by penetration.

don't worry about the gol thing more and more tree service monkeys are using it... there is a large outfit that drives orange trucks... they tend to make a mess of straight falling jobs, Hel they can barely limb the ####ing things...

As far as leaving Ireland to come back here... very tough decision... this was at the height of the Celtic F'ing Tiger BS and I had 3 job offers but no visa and no proof I'm 1/2 Irish... (the rest is mutt:wink2
