  1. Get a cutting or seeds if it has any. Would make a cool bonsai project. (the tree, not the dog).

    Jokes???

  3. I have huge misgivings about the way this has been handled from the outset.
  4. You remind me of the cat that keeps shitting in my backyard.
  5. So, be nice, play the game, in a year or so all the old and vulnerable people will have managed deaths, instead of a pulmonary struggle to the bitter end. I'm inclined to do what I can to help my fellow man.
  6. Aye, he's been ranting on about 'problem, reaction, solution' for time immorial. It used to be fun to get stoned and check out conspiracy theories back in dial up days. Now it's just open season on the hard of thinking.
  7. Heave is usually only a consideration when trees are older than the building.
  8. I'd look into doing a level 4 or level 6 qualification in arboriculture, that'll take a couple of days a week and will help to place you in a position where you can go down the surveying/plant health care route. That leaves 3 or more days to work with a firm or firms and learn the ropes. As stated above, it's beneficial to know how things actually work when writing up work specifications.
  9. I think your best best in the short term is a fence. You could also just pick off the berries. Plants flower and produce seed as part of their natural cycle. You could look into hormonal applications to reduce fruit production, but you'd be better off training the dog to avoid eating berries from trees.
  10. Aye, I think you're right. UBI is inevitable. Capitalism can't function without it. Or, they're a bunch of disaster capitalists who can flee the country like rats. It's a sorry state of affairs.
  11. Aye. Make hay when the sun shines.
  12. ~ I bet a load of money that an effective track and trace app could be made for a figure in the low thousands.

  14. I realise there's media bias. There's an abundance of sources for the blatant rip off that is happening under our noses.
  15. I'd be inclined to look at a branded second hand saw that has parts readily available. You sound like you know what you're doing.
  16. SEVEN week-old firm with links to Tory peer lands £122 million PPE contract WWW.THELONDONECONOMIC.COM The London Economic | Unsurprisingly, there was no tender process when the contract was handed to an associate of... @Johnsond How's that for 'so called' ltd company milking it?
  17. It might be an idea to upgrade your PC soon. UK tech supply chain in dark over Brexit preparations months ahead of final heave-ho • The Register WWW.THEREGISTER.COM How can it be OK when nobody knows what to prepare for, ask IT players
  18. I reckon that's partly due to a shifting of the overton window to the right by the media, and then compounded by a strong 'with us or against us' rhetoric. Divide and rule.
  19. Boris Johnson 2016: There's no plan for no deal because we're going to get a great deal. Boris Johnson 2019: We've got the deal, it's oven ready, let's get Brexit done. Boris Johnson 2020: The UK should get ready for no deal.
  20. Wrong thread though.
  21. Ba-boom tush.
  22. There was a Matelot at one point. He was a shitgibbon.
  23. I did like Corbyn, he came across as honest. Which was probably his downfall.
