    Jokes???

    My wife just called me. She said, "Three of the girls in the office have just received some flowers for Valentines Day, they are absolutely gorgeous." I said, "That's probably why they've received flowers then."
  4. Both the conifer and the willow have the potential to cause subsidence related issues in the future. The bedrock in and around Gillingham is chalk, the superficial deposits around that way frequently contain a clay component.
  5. I think that the 'high rate of growth' is so high because we dropped so low that it looks like we're making good headway.

    You could hire in a tree surgeon for a couple of jobs to see how they operate and what they charge.

  11. CBD oil. I had knee surgery last year due to a torn meniscus. The scan showed that I have a fair bit of arthritis, I'm 44 so I'm playing catch up. We're blessed with defective bodies.
  12. Exactly. Surely the people who are in cabinet positions should have a slight background in their chosen field.
  13. I found that my playing and confidence increased massively when I moved from a cheap nylon-stringed classical to a less cheap acoustic guitar. Things seem easier if you've been playing a hog. I used to have an Epiphone 335.

    Regional styles.

    That sounds promising mate. I think you've found the right balance.
  16. My guitar teacher, who was a left-handed player, would say that it's best to learn right-handed as most the instruments you pick up will be strung that way. I don't know if I would have followed that advice if I was left-handed though, he didn't either but could play upside down if he wanted to.. I started playing on a nylon strung classical guitar as that's what was there. Classical guitars are good as the spacing between strings is comparatively larger, which can help when trying to sound each string in a chord. I'd recommend a cheapish acoustic guitar, something like this would work.

  17. I don't know if that's a good idea, if you're going to be in the trade you should be able to sharpen a chain without witness marks. The potential for homeowners is great, the chain should be standard on all ALDI, LIDL, B&Q, and STIHLS with a black handle saws.
  18. I think your idea has great potential for people who like to cut their own firewood. I hope you make a load of money from it. I'm more than happy to promote this chain to punters who ask me how they should sharpen their saw.
  19. Harris by name, harass by nature. Nominative determination in action. A few people on here have my number, they're welcome to call any time they like.

  21. I dunno mate, it's her likeness on all of it, that suggests to me that it might be hers.
