Thing is buddy, thats exactly what I do. I'm going to do it on monday morning - I'm going to stop a guy doing what he wants to do with his trees. I'm going to stop him because the trees are too important. As for the second point - woe betide him should he follow that course of action...
-
And underneath it all, that's my fundamental point. I tried not to discuss this pariticular tree. We can't really as we haven't seen it first hand. Regardless of my personal opinions of individuals rights, and regardless of appropriate management techniques in the past. We wouldn't want another one would we??
-
Yep. You're right about the fact that is should be reasonable. I guess that my reasonable might not be your reasonable!!! I would say that the compensation of having a great tree is the tree itself!
-
So what? Just because he thinks its too big does that mean it is? That doesn't follow.
-
All true but examples of where you cannot do what you want with your property. This is my central point and I ain't getting sidetracked. So. I take it we agree that the boundary of your rights is where they conflict with mine. Now (not referring to any specific trees) how about the right to amenity?
-
easy chaps. cabstar - whats your point?

1. You can't. King of chavs, Michael Carrol, lottery winning thug had impromtu stock car racing on his property. He had an injunction made against him preventing him from driving his cars on his property in the way that he wanted. 2. You can't if you live in a listed building, conservation area or a terrace! 3. Nice BBQ. You still can't kick your dog in the face RSPCA will have you prosecuted. Point is - You cannot do what you want with your property. You can do a hell of a lot of things with you property, but not everything and anything.

Yep no reason for them to. Let the market find a niche. Capitalism will find a solution (ha ha)
-
dude. Sheer genius

You would still be emitting the biggest contributer to "climate change" - water vapour. So - an emission tax would still hit you.

Ok. I have a problem with this concept, (not picking on you directly huck). You don't have a right to do what you want with your property. Think of cars - you can't (legally) drive on the pavement. Think of houses - you can't build a block of flats in your yard (without permission) Think of pets - you can't (legally) kick you dog in the face because it ate your invoice. You don't have the right to do what you want to your tree IMO.
-
Ah no I wouldn't want it out. But I wouldn't want another one.
-
I dunno. I appreciate the "...its a tree, the ecosystem doesn' care what it looks like..." arguement However, my gut instinct still says it was unneccesary. Its all a bit bowing green lawn to me. Y'know the gardens that are immaculatley maintained, lawns clipped, roses pruned to within an inch of their life. Strips the natural aesthetic out of the environment. Something ain't right about it.
-
Hang on. Who's saying the tree was too close to the house?
-
And put mine in again
-
In fact the lines are probably too close to the tree to footlock anyway. No-one bothered last year. One guy did the first year, didn't give him much of an advantage. one guy used srt the first year, didn't help him much either.
-
oh and mine
-
Nah mate. Not me. Dunno how you Cornwall boys deal with the sun but I use sunblock... :wave:
-
you won't make a fool of yourself mate. Its mainly a laugh. Hey I'm setting it up and I haven't climbed for 4 months, how hard can it be!!

Anyone interested in running a trade stand in the forestry section of the East of England PM me and I'll get you the details.

Those of you who have enrolled will be recieving your tickets and related info in the next couple of weeks. Anyone planning to compete who hasn't enrolled yet, you ain't got long to get the form in. Enrollment is not compulsory but if you turn up on the day you'll have to pay to enter the site, and you'll be in line behind the enrolled competitors. Cheers.

Ouch!! I tried to cut my groundy's hair with my silky once. It doesn't really work - the hair sits inbetween the teeth and just pulls out. He wasn't very happy.
-
Prolly 'cos its a bunch of arse.
-
so true about the ladder!!!

I work too hard to get time to go to the beach. We haven't all done so well in life as to be able to afford a cabstar. Oh and sunblock works pretty well for those non-helmet occasions...
