  1. We had the woodchip dating site , matching waste chip with someone who needs some

    There seems to be a lot of people wanting work and offering work, how about some sort of dating map of the country , possibly a post code map

    Maybe one with a machinery circle , finding the nearest mobile saw mill , or mulcher etc all by post code, and possibly leaving comments as to how good or bad it turned out

    Would be a nice idea but thieves would love the postcode idea.

  2. How can someone believe in this crap when it's the cause of most wars, also one of the richest Businesses in the world yet so much poverty.

    Then you have the pedophile priests .

    It's just load of horse shite, love thy neighbour my arse.

  3. What if proof of our sky daddy's existence is awaiting and latent inside us?

     

    Kinduva best place to hide something being right under your nose scenario?

    You've been watching to much supernatural.

  4. Keep annoyin me an I'll post some god awful poetry!

     

    Don't make me do it lads, you'll be sorry!

     

    Thanks Timon!

    Feel free with the poetry.

     

    How can I persist in annoying so many people ? It's my first post on religion . I do think it's become a fairytale , like every good story it's added to and changed through time usually to people's benefits deflecting from the true meaning.

    Look at some people's interpretation of Islam.

     

    I don't show I know everything, but to say I'm uneducated for my opinion just because you don't agree, is wrong.

     

    I could say your uneducated with your beliefs in gay people are a Thorne in people's side to remind people of their faults is wrong due to your interpretation of the Bible .

  5. Ha ha - my ginger barnet has attracted plenty of names over the years but that's the first time I've thought of myself as a ginger mutant!

    Well there you go 😁was only using the other posters words. I'm of course not at all religious, didn't know you where ginger you must of dyed your hair when I saw your last 😆 you ginger mutant you.

  6. Why do you think god made gay people, my fellow christians with a small c?

     

    They slithered outta eden like the rest of us.

     

    Even atheist must have a theory about how they came to be, a random mutation or something?

     

    I kinda think they were meant to be a thorn in our sides to remind us we're all flawed n mortal to varying degrees, though our destinations are the same.

     

    I kinda think any Jesus'd cure them of their afflictions if he could?

    Already because I guess you are a christian I am on a back the foot as you have chosen to base your life on a fairytale. Whatever I say you will only see it from a christian perspective.

     

    If you are talking about differences then the other thorns in your side must be - disabled people, gingers, people with blue eyes, different skin tones, the list can go on, they are all mutations.

  7. What do they put under "permeable" block paving?

     

    Any compacted layer of sand or mot type limestone isn't going to let any water through.

     

    Drives don't have to permeable, they have to have some way of dealing with surface run off without discharging onto the street or into the sewers.

    Hope this helps https://www.google.co.uk/url?q=https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/7728/pavingfrontgardens.pdf&sa=U&ved=0ahUKEwiFnq7Ao4jQAhXIAsAKHQx2AegQFggPMAE&usg=AFQjCNHRDtwzdIIeE6IV20ppqt7p7ncdKw

  8. Block paving is not water permeable. Surface water needs to be moved to a collection point and drained through a grid.

     

    As Ian says, the pipework under the paving should be solid, it's possible that fine sand from the block paving sun base has got into the drain. More likely they've blocked from the discharge end imo. The solid pipe should also have rodding points at every change of direction.

    Oh yes it is well the newer stuff is, that's why the council don't like you concreting stuff. Everything has to be permeable due to flooding.

  9. I've never seen or used perforated drainage under block paving, you can use it say behind the garage then solid pipe to the sewer for example as all the block work should be permeable so anything should soak through.

     

    Do you know the pipe is going to the sewer??, or is it just acting like a soak away and now it's blocked and coming through the perforated holes

  10. perhaps the underlying problem is that the employers aren't paying enough in wages?

     

    I currently work 200 miles away from my house. I only do this because my hourly rate is good. If the employers paid more they would get employees....

     

     

    I don't think it is, agencies charge quite a bit, so if you can afford to pay an agency you can afford to pay a decent wage IMO.
