Well, that's funny: Trump wants to send the military into Chicago.... "the murder capital of the world" apparently (doesn't make the world top 50, you might be surprised to know.. in fact, by head of population, doesn't make the top 30 in the US either) Trump's Bonkers 'Chipocalypse Now' Post Salivates Over Potential Chicago Takeover UK.YAHOO.COM "Chicago about to find out why it's called the Department of WAR," the post read.

Using the kubota yesterday to drag and wrestle these Poplar sticks to road side for the timber trailer. Didn't bother with grab as knew it wouldn't open wide enough. Push them up at one end with bucket and get chain under then drag / wiggle them down the hill. Happy days

Pigeon? Saw them on rocks whilst climbing. Took photo thinking it may be something rarer. Wintours leap in Chepstow.

I hope they are better behaved than the Palestinians that were at my local gym. They got banned,only so much anti Israeli graffiti and letching on the girls to be tolerated. Imagine the surprise that one of them got,when banged up for sexual assault he recognised one of the former gym members was now his warden. Funny old world.

As was mentioned above you probably need to sell the timber standing. Of course this will only work if there is good access, and good tracks, or if it is not too steep for a harvester and forwarder. Have you estimated the total volume? It will have to be above a certain level to be viable. You could speak to Roger at Mendip Forestry. He knows what he is doing with regards to harvesting and marketing and covers your area. Also you could put some photos up here and then us Arbtalkers can tell you that the access is no good, or the trees are no good, or that there is some other technical problem which means you will have to pay someone to remove them for you.... -
Well took a £20 punt on the new pot and piston. Fitted fine. Cleaned carb and refitted. Tried to start. Coughed on choke all good. Switched choke off a couple of pulls. Bloody starter cord snapped. went for beer. back on this morning new cord heated plug with small blow torch. Started ok and running nice. Will get it ran in with a bit of load soon but all looks ok. Thanks for all the advice.

Morning all, Trimming a holly bush then doing a quote. I tried the salt and vinegar method once when I had an ear canal infection. I still had to get seen and had otomize spray. Works well, but is prescription only. Have a good weekend.

Using Ecoplugs on side growths and suckers

Woody Paul was right. We did go back to insurers, who refused to fund more treatment. We shd have stuck to our guns, but we are committed now. I think it's important to make it clear to both insurers and possible future buyers that the subsidence problem has been dealt with and the mitigation works carried out exactly as prescribed. Tree-fancier123, many thanks for that very detailed advice - really helpful to have precise measurements to follow. The problem with letting it grow is that we would be continually having to cut back - not a simple weekend job with a 3m stump. We might let a sideshoot regrow as part of the hedge (if it survives the treatment) and see how we get on. Now that there is more space and light I'd rather embrace the change and plant on either side of trunk with hazel and hawthorn seedlings, more interesting than the leggy privet we inherited. -

yes, I recall that was a later model, an old trick to play when we were kids was to bumpstart an old bsa bantam field bike by pushing it backwards, and then offer a go on it to the many asking, they would put in in gear and let the clutch out expecting it to go forwards, but it went backwards instead. pretty soon everyone had caught on.
