  2. He's definitely not wired right, when you say early shower justice do you mean to cure insanity (cold shower treatment), or in terms of prisons?
  3. Why? Explain your reasoning. Mick's right, we in the UK need any friends we can get right now. We're a small island in a big and increasingly dangerous world. I'd rather it wasn't China, but needs must. We don't have many options when it comes to Spheres of Influence. The US has gone, (although they're now far too unstable to rely on anyway), Europe has gone; that only leaves China and Russia.

    A Tree shear helps no end , some older hedges are impossible too pull your steepers out intertwined blackthorn are the worst I got some photos of a road hedge we done where we had a 13 ton with a shear and thinned the whole hedge out as most was hanging out over the road

  9. Animals have been adapting to climate change for the last billion years. Lots of them didnt though, hence no T. rex's knocking about.

  11. 2 years of training and gaining panel hours, studying every spare minute and doing my job at the same time. That’s just one qualification lad. I don’t mock the fact you have degree I mock you Mark . I do OK for a thick c..t. What is so predictable about you is like so many socialist types you hate anyone trying to improve themselves or get on. I did indeed use post it notes prior to this exam in fact the hotel room where I stayed for two weeks to be able to focus 100% prior to taking the test had its walls covered in studying material. Quick google Yes, the IMCA Diving Supervisor exam is widely considered difficult and challenging, often described as a "notoriously difficult" examination. It is a critical, high-stakes exam that requires comprehensive knowledge, particularly for candidates who do not prepare adequately. Here is a breakdown of why it is difficult and how to prepare: Why the Exam is Considered Difficult High Knowledge Standard: The exam covers complex topics, specifically in diving physics, diving physiology, and diving operations. Scenario-Based Questions: Questions are not just based on memorization; they are often scenario-based, requiring practical application of knowledge to manage diving operations and emergencies. Strict Passing Criteria: Candidates must achieve a minimum of 75% to pass. Time Constraints: The Air Diving Supervisor (ADS) exam, for example, is 2.5 hours long. Electronic Format: Exams are now computer-based, with only one question viewed at a time. Language Barrier: Non-native English speakers may find the technical language particularly challenging, although some time allowance is made. Key Areas of Focus Physics: Requires understanding gas laws, pressure, and buoyancy calculations. Physiology: Involves understanding decompression sickness, gas toxicity, and neurological assessments. Regulations/Procedures: Deep familiarity with IMCA guidelines (e.g., IMCA D022) is essential. How to Pass Disciplined Study: Start a self-study program long before the exam. Panel Experience: Ensure you have high-quality, practical experience on the panel as a trainee supervisor. Review Material: Familiarize yourself with the US Navy Diving Manual and specific IMCA Information Notes. Take a Course: Attending an IMCA-approved training course (like those offered by KBA Training or Trauma Training) is highly recommended to bridge knowledge gaps. Candidates who do not prepare adequately often fail, particularly in the physics and operations sections. PS Whats your degree in ?
  12. Today
  13. You cant admit your wrong then. Rhino is a HMS, it simply means it has a large rope basket without being excessively offset, there are many styles of HMS, many are symmetrical. That is what HMS means. Yes I did google the German.
  14. You studying is good. Me getting a degree is something you mock. Who is the clown?
  15. No Mark by studying, making sacrifices and grafting my arse off for years you clown 🤡
  16. 😂😂😂😂 You on the drink lad. Talking of absolute rubbish that’s some mix, post it notes, refresher exams, bit thick, whoring mystic out 😂😂😂😂
  17. Another one from yesterday, rotten chesnut, stem filled with soil and not much wood holding it up. Other guy had already topped the brush off the day before and left it for me to peice down the stem.
  18. HI John, I hope business is doing well for you. We are based just outside of Llay in Wrexham and wanted to inform you of our tip site should you have any spare logs, hardwood or softwood that may make disposal a little easier for yourself. I also have a decent size trailer and would be happy from time to time to collect from local work sites. Wishing you a Happy and healthy 2026 Regards Rob robswood 01244912999
  19. Rigging loverley Landylie over a listed ruin, nice to be back on the arb after a long stint of forestry.
  20. Says you. You know **************** all, you have to use post it notes for refresher exams. Bit thick but done well financially by whoring yourself to highest bidder. Sure they'll be talking about your legend long after you're dust.
  21. Absolute rubbish
  22. Polar bears on Norwegian islands fatter and healthier despite ice loss, scientists say APPLE.NEWS Scientists think that Svalbard bears have adapted to recent ice loss by eating more land-based prey. Animals adapting to climate change 😳😳whatever next.

    I got a pretty thick bit of Blackthorn in the next hedge. That will be a job for the 2.6t and a tree sheer. Those thorns are awfully tenacious and near impossible to pull out when grown together, flailed and then left to go again. Used the winch on my chipper to have a out several Holly trees in my hazel section.
  24. If running older vehicles as I do avoid greenflag, only young vehicles please.
  25. Totally different situations that are beyond any rational comparison. The fighting started in 2014 and hadn’t stopped when the Russians upped the ante. The weakness of the west and in particular the cowards within the EU after the 2014 Crimean annexation was an open invitation.
