The highly sensitive military...

It’s because he’s on the watch list.

Surely someone's head has to roll for this? It's an egregious and unforgiveable mistake in the first place, but denying it so brazenly is just outrageous. I bet Hillary Clinton is pissing herself watching this unfold. Whatever transgression it is she committed regarding her emails is precisely nothing when compared to this.

Pete Hegseth doubled down on his own colossal security cock-up and ended up owned into next year WWW.THEPOKE.COM It will go down in history as one of the great security cock-ups of all time. Eighteen senior White House officials including vice president JD Vance and defence secretary Pete Hegseth were...

Just to chuck in my two penn'orth on the side; also only regarding the single cylinder mowers but my first go to is always clean the gunge out of the carb bowl and clean the white chalky encrustinations out of the main jet with a set of fine carb files (look upon it as an opportunity to buy)

It will be interesting to see the fallout. Vance is mates with with Peter Thiel, who with his mate, Elon, bankroll(ed) Trump. 4D chess indeed...

Thanks for clearing that up for us Gareth. Lucid as ever.

I doubt they'll be allowed to get away with it: all those people that made so much fuss about Hilary's emails & Hunter Biden's laptop will come down on this like a ton of bricks. ETA Ah! No, sorry, my mistake.

Thanks for all your helpful answers, I have forwarded them on to guy that has acquired all the wood.

If it is the smell I am thinking of, it reminds me of cigar boxes from the 70’s. 😀And don’t listen to them, it is a fantastic firewood if it’s free😀

Labour in name only now it seems. That old Overton window. UK considers big tech tax changes to appease Donald Trump WWW.BBC.CO.UK Rachel Reeves says talks are "ongoing" about the Digital Services Tax, paid by giants like Amazon. I'd say the moral compass is pretty much lost already.

Probably just heavy because it's wet. It's not a great firewood because most of that weight is water, it's quite lightweight when its seasoned. Been a while since I've had any so can't quite remember the smell, but I've a vague memory of it being sweetish but also slightly unpleasant somehow.

That bark looks more like Pear to me. I don't have much experience splitting that. I've done lots of Hawthorne though and had no trouble at all. Yes, the grain isn't that straight, but it doesn't seem to impede things at all.

Although I have not physically seen it or handled it. It is allegedly very heavy and doesn't Poplar have a particular scent?

Looks that way.

Unpopular Poplar Rears its lovely head again.
