At J S Wright we have used JCB telehandlers for over 20 years and Toyota forklift trucks for over 30 years. In our view these are the most reliable products on the market and the service backup we get from Oliver’s for the JCB and Truckmasters Handling for the forklifts is second to none.

Due to the drought in England this year the newly planted trees have been under stress and when this happens they push out more side shoots than they would normally. These are the worst we have seen you would not think they had been trimmed once this year back in May.

Some fabulous trees felled for the factory. The more white wood the prettier the bats, unfortunately you cannot tell until you fell it what it looks like or how it plays until it is made. We still can’t make out why bats are sold for how they look and not how they play, nonsense in our book!
