like i say a lot of hearsay banded about, if there main job is delivering products or plant then yes they need one, even things like catering trailers etc i think need them there are some exemptions though as listed here, excuse the large size but though be easier to read. and sorry for the copyright infrringement, everyone should subscribe to earthmovers

I drive the van at work, and tow the trailer. We cover alot of miles each year, and quite a few of our runs end up being 30 - 70 miles away, even been down to England to collect slabs. Im towing a trailer just about everyday, so from what I gather here, i should be running with a tacho?
These VOSA rules and regs do my head in, nothing seems to be nice and clear

A wee back garden this week with some sand stone 600x600 and Quartzite crazy paving trimmed with granite. Finished off with water feature planting and raised veg planter. Nice job to work on and cracking cups of tea.
I love working with this stuf it only costs about £9m2 and is easily worked into shape with a hammer I hate seeing it cut to fit it never looks right the lines are to straight. This piece has enough bling on it to keep ony cheshire wife happy.
Also got started on next weeks job by getting a subbie to excavate a slope to give the client an upper garden thats level and has a veiw of most of the city and the shipyard.

That's a great transformation Pablo, what's it jointed with?
On the raised garden job were the cast in situ Walls and steps already in or your work? Sorry was on phone theyre block rendered on closer look, will they be up to the push on that? They tied in with steel to footings?
Also were those lads already on site? Looks like new build estate? As seems excessively big machine for a little area, with low loader cost etc

Nice work there Pablo looks very nice , good use of different materials top job!

The pointing is called Immobest it's Belgian i think although i reckon they're under licence from Romex all the colours are very similar. Giles the walls are up 4 years I don't know the construction but the builder is on the ball and the houses sell for 700 plus. Cutting into the slope is reducing the pressure anyway and it's just a patio lawn anchor wall and plants. The digger was brought by a tractor the fella is a farmer we needed it because we had 15 loads to shift and the ground is pretty solid. I'm also using the builders 5 tonner to do the final level but it wouldn't have been quick enough to load the muck out you get charged if you go over 10mins a load. Thanks for being nice by the way fellas.

That stone is lovely, were did you get that from then? ive never seen anything like that for sale before

nice work pablo
dont seem to be any weepholes in that wall?
I know its not your wall but the engineer tells me that build up of water causes retaining walls to fail more than anything
also as per my romex thread,I am starting to worry about polymerics in the medium term
2 patios i did in 2006 and 2007 the romex has started eroding
i want things to last for good if at all possible
LLL
like that quartz btw is it local?
my local BM had a load of spanish quartz for years but no one ever bought any,

The stone is from Donegall and is quite readily available over here but not many go for it because of the labour costs involved. I get a few jobs a year with it the most I've ever laid was about 400m for an italian restuarant chain inside and out with similar walling and waterfeatures and internal fishpond the place went bust last year.
No ugly weepholes in the wall just plenty of drainage the pipe goes under the step and out the side between the 2 houses.
