What is 'Real Money'?
-
Yup, for a worthless coin with an unlimited market cap it's done alright. I'd be surprised if it stays at this level for long though.
-
You may have missed the boat on this one.

Aye, Hindsight is always 20/20. I've made just over a grand today. I'm going to take 2/3rds out and let the rest sizzle.

@Rob D Thanks mate. Those 200 DOGE are now worth just over £50.

I don't know the numbers, but I don't imagine that many people fly from Leeds to London. HS2 is (should be) a dead duck by now. More efficient trains on current routes would be a start.

Stretching is the best thing to maintain flexibility. Osteopaths and/or sports physios can be useful too if you check in regularly. Back pain is horrible. I knacked mine a few years ago.

Unfortunately, you're very right.

I liked Corbyn, he seemed honest. I have no stake whatsoever in the labour party in its current form. If there was an election tomorrow the green party would get my vote. Who would you vote for?

Alright petal... You can get a moisture metre for not many quids. I know that chip boxes in tree trucks get pissed in, a lot. I'd be reticent to be putting my lips on any logs, but each to their own.

Have you tried setting them alight? It's quite apparent when wood is wet.

Nice drive though. -

Aye, ash is drier than most woods but seasoning any wood will enhance it. Diseased ash will be bone dry though.

1) Yes, it will burn, it'll probably be bone dry if it isn't made of dust. 2) Ash isn't really suited to being used for outdoor furniture. 3) I think that once the tree is dead, it's dead. Degradation of woody tissues may be arrested if the wood is kept moisture free. Left outside it'll probably turn to mush. 4) Ash Dieback will affect a tree form the 'top down'. You might get some good planks, there's a chance that the dieback will add some nice colouration to any salvageable boards.

It seems like Norn Iron is kicking off:

Years ago it seemed like everyone (apart from mogs and schliesing) was rocking timberwolf 150's. Greenmech make decent chippers, we got a green 150 when the orange one died. It was an excellent piece of kit. You will probably make more money by putting your staff through a trailer ticket and buying an 8"+ chipper than you will with a 6" chipper.

An engineering solution might be favourable. Without knowing the structure of the soil there is no way to predict heave.
