Democrats have collapsed: The US Democratic Party rating has reached a 30-year low — Wall Street Journal ▪️The approval rating of the US Democratic Party has dropped to its lowest level in the past 30 years. This is reported by the WSJ citing its own poll. ▪️According to the data, 63% of voters have a negative view of the Democrats, while only 33% have a positive view. For comparison, the negative perception rating of the Republican Party exceeds the positive by only 11%, and for Trump by 7%. ▪️Only 8% of Americans described the DNC as "very positive," whereas the figure for Republicans is more than twice as high (19%) ▪️WSJ adds that despite criticism of Trump on issues of the economy, inflation, tariffs, and foreign policy, voters trust Republicans more than Democrats on all these topics ▪️Democrats maintain an advantage in only 2/10 areas: healthcare and vaccination. According to sociologist John Anzalone, the DNC has lost so much trust that it is unable to be an effective opposition.

Les dear boy, it will be signed off (electrical wise), then, and only then will he get his dollar. I'm fairly sure that with years of experience the job is sound.

I used to Rich, but apparently it’s a bit of a no-no now. Duck oil for me, Joe is spot on. Kram how an earth do you clean a saw properly without a compressor?

Are you saying it’s tarmac? (Which would be great btw)

It's the threads of mine which would potentially wear out first, being aluminium male and female. I have a mix of aluminium and fibre glass poles (for utility work) but nowadays as long as not working near electricity I would probably replace with carbon fibre tubes.

I do indeed 😄

Do you give a discount for taking away the wood and branches? I know how much you get selling them to B&Q

Magnolia getting too large, no I.D. Keep or cut down?
Dan Maynard replied to Little Splodge's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
Well there's obviously some correlation between tree size and root spread, so in theory yes - but there'll still be roots in the lawn, unlikely to do anything structural though. People seem to worry about roots much more than the actual problems they cause. -

James. Why would anyone deliver to you free logs ? It costs in fuel to get to you. The firewood guys pay for good clean wood. The bio-mass guys pay for off cuts. Only the tip charges for disposal of brash ridden branches and scrub. Where is the advantage in dropping off logs to you ? If I could dispose of a 20 x 3.5m Leylandi hedge would you be happy with that ?

What the most unusual thing you have found in a tree
Mike Hill replied to Henry218's topic in Climbers talk
Put a picture up please. Guns with a story are much more interesting. I have one that I bought years ago from the son of the first owner,who after surviving WW1 died a few weeks after coming home by falling off a horse. -
A broader sweep of the trees (picture wise) might help.

Mark have you read some of the stuff that’s being posted in the Potus thread ffs radicalised, who me😂😂you kidding me. Now as for some others here they might very well find themselves on a secret service watch list the quantity and content of the posts they put up🤔. You got a daughter or kids mark ?? I’m not sure if you have or not, but put it to any of your friends who have a daughter in the same way and use the same language and insinuations that SP has done on more than one occasion and see how they react. Im no angel Mark, far from it, and will absolutely fight my corner but there is 100% a line I won’t cross. As another said, he should be ashamed. As I said thanks for your “concern” but the biggest run in I’ve had with the law since 1990 is 3 points for speeding ( in an HGV ) on the A1 at Berwick that year.

Good man, I respect him all the more for it. Wish him well from me.

I agree with that. You will probably struggle to get permission due to health and safety etc. No one is really going to grant permission to go and climb as they would get sued to death if something bad happened. I did a bit of rec climbing in the local woods while training in college, just make sure you have someone to spot you at the very least.

dvla have always been problematic,you could phone on ten successive days, ask the exact same question and get a different answer each time. I recall one instance when you had to surrender the old tax disc to got a refund for the remaining duty, they asked for "recorded delivery" with a signature upon receipt, which I duly complied with,over a month passes and I have yet to receive my refund, so I phone them, 3,1/2 days later somebody actually answered the phone and informed it was lost? "But you signed for it, so it wasn't lost in post at all was it,?" a brief silence ensued,, she then said,, "no it was lost internally" "Ok, what happens now?" "no disc, no refund I'm afraid" wankers!! now they have a different scheme whereby the tax cannot be transferred with change of ownership of the vehicle. and the present owner gets back any full remaining months duty, and the new owner has to tax from the beginning of the month he wishes to use the vehicle from, the current month has been paid for already by the previous owner, but if new owner needs to use the vehicle immediately he has to backdate it to the beginning of the already paid for month. and your refund is calculated from the date they deal with it, so if they "lose it" that's never. I told dvla long ago ,I usually like being kissed when I'm getting fecked.

Hi Gents, My neighbour has this apple tree and it has rot inside, and a big limb broke this morning and crashed to the ground, my neighbour doesn't really have money to throw at it to save it, and its not my tree but I want to help it, because it makes good cooking apples. I can cut broken limbs off, but I don't have a clue how to help the rot, can anyone help me? The tree lives in Luton.
