Don't doubt the injury was real enough , just the bit about the saw dragging the material around the " wrong " way .

Morning troops . No rain forecast for here. 15c up to 23c part sun part cloud . Happy happyness .

Sad day. Saw Him as a solo with the Bark ant the Moon tour. His book was good, a proper comic. Breaking out of the hotel in sharons dress to go on the lash for a couple of days. Epic. Saw Sabbath fronted by Gillan. Sound was there but Gillan couldn't tear it up like Ozzy. Not many legends left I suppose.

Good morning Arbtalkers 😊 Heavy rain in the night but looking good for today.

Good Morning Happy Hump-day Sad day for Ozzy fans. Onwards and Upwards

Had a spare day so continued with friends garden - its been a slow one. In 2023 I removed 5 leylandii, one of them large, and a dangerous rotten poplar. Earlier this year I stump ground the bigger two out, the smaller ones were done with mattock. Today started levelling. First job was trim it low and chase the small roots, digging with mattock and spreading with rake. Old before pic Once I get the dirt levelled theres a huge slab of concrete after the path, I'll be letting one of her friends shift that and the path, then more levelling. Plan is to get it flat and grass seed growing before autumn.

You thinking "big cat"? not ridiculing you at all, had plenty of "incidents" over the last 50 or so years.

I'm sure the op is aware of that,as am I, however maybe he will find a way instead of looking for an excuse not to do it. he did after all ask how to find work in Scandinavia, and may have a passport and was looking for a more work oriented reply. Do I need a visa for Scandinavia from the UK? Visa requirements You can travel without a visa to the Schengen area, which includes Norway, for up to 90 days in any 180-day period. This applies if you travel: as a tourist. to visit family or friends.

What factors and what sort of price ranges are you thinking? And yes I have enough work, just never want to say no so seeing what can be got really.

What you talking about about Willis?

That's a little concerning. In this country.

Without question, and even if it was within RIDDOR days, would it even qualify to be required to e acknowledged, sounds like user error bullshit to me.

Nope, kicked it to the curb! Done it a dozen times over the last 25 years and while I like a show, it cost too much tbh!

Unfortunately times have changed and although you never left the UK and just drove around in a van, those halcion days are no more, and any young person without any imagination is ****************ed without an an EU passport due to Brexit. You can’t just rock up anywhere in the EU any more without an EU passport and get work, Brexit ended that option, but at least a few welders go apprenticeships on Tyneside so all is well, eh?

No royal Welsh for you this year then Pete

Saw Black Dabbath in the mid/late 70's for the Heaven and He'll tour with Ronnie Jsmes Dio at the Brum Ideon. Good, but missed Ozzy!

never been to Scandinavia, but in my very much younger days was "nomadic" for a while, and lived in a Thames 15cwt van, I just drove around, Wiltshire, Wales, east Anglia, and many more locations, and I have Knocked on many doors asking for work, had a few that said no, but many gave me work, mending stuff, odd bit of felling, splitting, helping out at harvest, I'm thinking maybe a recreational trip to Scandinavia, and putting the word about, these days qualifications are required, if you have them, say so when making your inquiries, don't aim too high, if somebody gives you an opportunity, take it, do a good job, hopefully it will plant a good seed and you may get more offers on the back of it. Good Luck.

Absolute genius of a man musically - loved a lot of his stuff. Will be sorely missed 🥲
