I think SP is more of a Walter than conspiracy theorists, granted the two aren't mutually exclusive.

Neighbour's application to cut back my tpo'd tree
Con replied to LilyLangtree's topic in Trees and the Law
My sympathies are with you, Lilly. It sounds like he's trying it on. Some people are mad enough to just go ahead and do things though. The problem is, until he does something, he hasn't done anything, if you get me. (Except frustrate you). You've made your position clear to him. I'd just sit back. But the minute he does something act quickly. If it's trespass, I'd call the police. (I know, good luck with that) -
thank you, that's what I was planning to do exactly, now you have given me a positive example.

Unless it has changed, Kielder flows into the Tyne and there is a pipe from there to the Tees, but I am not sure if it is connected into a wider system so that for example Kielder water can get to the south coast (It was designed to supply industrial Teesside which on completion went into decline and demand for water dropped... but the infrastructure was built by then). There was a pipeline I think Tees and south deigned but not sure if that was ever built.

That looks a well usable bit of kit, very similar to many of them, I have the cheap as chips Kelfri version as I no longer need a larger commercial rig, but my crane is tractor mounted, seals, bearings,tires, are generally easily sourced and replaced if needed, should you be unfortunate to bend or break anything it can be straightened, welded and made stronger with a little bit of back yard ingenuity.

Why Aye! Dry so far, but no doubt that will change! Up late putting the world to rights and awake early! Tea in bed right now though. Mach, Key, Art, Toe.

External stimulus. My mate does. Get the fertile eggs from him. Hoping one of the chicks is male. Borne from an outside egg. Won't be incest the first time round.

It’s been an amazing year for things that sometimes struggle with lack of sun/heat. I’m gutted my melons took an age to get started, it would have been a really good year for them and I fear they may not catch up. I left that marrow as a young courgette barely big enough to pick before I went away for five days. Came back to two big marrows plus loads of courgettes. Out of four plants this one is yielding the best by far. The yellow ones I’m really not keen on, funny shapes and get old before they get to a nice size. Aubergines looking the best they’ve ever been too, already ahead of the usual to medium fruits per plant offered up grudgingly at the end of the summer. The drip irrigation has really been key this season, and the weed membrane was the right thing to do also.

I'd happily put the cnuts through a woodchipper.

I love that bike - am annoyed with myself for not bidding on this the other day (it apparently sold for less than £700…)

Sorry to hear that. Hope you're well.

200L over six months works out as a litre a day. A couple of big saws would easily gobble that up. My previous 25L Rotatech oil, with still a couple litres left, was opened Jan '24.

No clue but someone should be able to help! Well help with the ident, there isnt usually anything you can do to help the tree or stop the fungi.

I have the Record No.6 fore plane I queued for in the fifties, It was a Saturday morning in a dedicated tool shop, Skeet and Jeffes, and one took a plastic number from a caddy and waited to be called, the service was terrible. It's under my bed to keep it rust free. We have a cluster of asbestos related disease locally, associated with the local gasket factory, the medical officer, my GP in 1972, was in denial about it then, when I left the practice (after 71 years) I noticed his name was not in the practice history.

Yes, it's a very long time since I was involved in conifer plantation forestry and I cannot remember it causing significant damage to douglas but things have moved on and its hotter and drier plus you are a few hundred miles south and further from the coast, so hotter still.
