  1. My point was that we might as well wear them while oil is still coming out of the ground.
  2. I swear when necessary.
  3. Synthetic fibers are a by-product of the oil industry. And aye, sawchips to the knackers is a bad idea.
  4. That Yaxley lemon character is a bit of a fraudster too but you seem to like him. Double standards everywhere.
  5. Brexit Party MEP worked for Cambridge Analytica – Channel 4 News WWW.CHANNEL4.COM Alexandra Phillips has admitted working for Cambridge...
  6. I've found that Czeck people are generally trustworthy. If they've made a promise then they stick to it.
  7. Brushing up on VTA terminology is a good idea eg compression forks, axioms, t/r ratios etc. As for the legal based side of things then all I can suggest is you just keep re-reading it and maybe make notes. You've already sat the exam once so you know what you're in for. Don't worry too much mate. If it goes tits up then you can always do it again.
  8. The syllabus hasn't changed much. Just brush up on what you missed last time. I failed the first time in 2017 as I got some fungi ID wrong. I recently resat it and had no problems.
  9. That sounds a little bit anal on their behalf. Did you draw a plan of sorts too and submit photos?
  10. Ha ha ha. He wants to become a refugee and claim political asylum. Haha what a melt:
  11. Goosed tree, No dropzone to speak of. It was my mate's job, I ran the ropes.
  12. 10 years. Northern Inuits. Fit as fiddles. They'd had a few pints.
  13. That first shot was from the other night.
  14. Back on track. A good climber with the right kit can speed things up massively. But you do need to be prepared to deal with what comes down, as it may come down faster than you're used to. Ideally you need a crew who know what they're doing on jobs like that. Thanks to @MattyF for that one.
  15. These are my occasional groundie's dogs. Met up for a pint today.
  16. When I come across trees like this, I get try to get the best climber for the job. That's usually not me, I could do it but it would take too long. Get a speedy climber in and and a competent groundie on the ropes. The rest is dealt with by either manpower or a misrerable (because he no longer smokes 60 a day) Northumbrian in a JCB. I'd be inclined to add a fair bit of 'just in case money onto the job', ontop of top of your usual calculated fees. If you don't need it then it's a bonus.
  17. Why did he latch onto it?
  18. Aye, it's good rock armour. Freedom of speech is fine, just don't jeaopardise prosecutions in the process.
  19. I have a working Cambois Ferry if that fits the bill. He's a media whore, he doesn't give a fuck about the victims of these cases or he wouldn't have went off jeopardising the potential conviction of the scum responsible.. Newbiggin here so we're practically neighbours.
  20. He didn't flag it up. See above. It has been flagged up for some time. Aye, we do need to shine a spotlight on the people in every communty who allow shit like that to go on. He's a coke fiend who can't even throw a proper punch. If you believe in Lennon's sincerity, I have a bridge to sell you if you're ever in the north-east.
  21. Reet. My mates work in the social care sector. They'd flagged up grooming gangs over fifteen years ago and it wasn't followed up because the coppers essentially didn't believe that kids in homes etc were capable of telling the truth. This is Newcastle UK. Yaxley Lennon is a shit stirring fuckwit, he's purely there to get people worked up. Seems to have a worked a treat on yourself. He hasn't drawn attention to the white nonces. And aye, it is apparent that there is a problem in the Asian community, in that their peadophiles are also racists.
  22. In a funny turn of events, there's a very real chance that he'll be on the 43's with all the nonces he 'exposed'.
  23. That looks more like Chondrostereum purpureum from here.
