  1. I have a good deal of first hand experience of people with Aspergers, my comment if you recall was that it can lead to inappropriate comments, with no malice. I have no real interest in defending Boris, I was referring to the comment about successful people. Its well know, IMO, that many hugely talented and successful, intelligent people are on the Autistic spectrum. I personally have never heard that said about Psychopaths, maybe I'm wrong.
  2. Do you care to give a link to the article? Name calling, how very childish.
  3. I would be very surprised if the article Gary mentioned did not refer to those successful people being "on the spectrum", its pretty old news. Isac Newton is thought to have been Autistic.
  4. Comparing those with Aspergers or Autism, with Psychopaths is pretty low.

    Ouch.

    If you look at the original vid the piece he removes is huge, looks at least as thick as his waste where he cuts. Watch the way it partly goes and then stops, it looks pretty solid to me, there's a lot of smallish stuff still attached . I'd have gone up the limb and knocked off all the branches, then pieced it down on my way back.

    Ouch.

    Obviously big boned boys like you should not be doing it Mark
  7. I think Boris is probably "on the spectrum" this can lead to inappropriate comments.
  8. I still don't get your point? Should the EU have decided if we could hold the Brexit referendum?
  9. For Entec think Timberwolf, they are the same thing. Entec was just their original name. Any Timberwolf deal should be able to help.
  10. Am I missing something? is that not exactly what happened? except they voted to stay. I don't recall being given the opportunity to vote.
  11. Seemed like a lot of faffing to me. I'd have just spiked up and cut-n-chucked it in less time, with no need for all that plant. No offence intended, each to their own
  12. I'd want more than that.
  13. Pop hinges hold very well for such a crap tree.
  14. skyhuck

    Ouch.

    I guess I've just been lucky for 20 years
  15. I find it often makes me laugh or is is interesting, I see the nutters and losers for exactly what they are so have no problem, I don't see the issue. If anyone gets on my nerves I just delete them
  16. skyhuck

    Ouch.

    I don't do MEWP's Going high and cutting small has always worked for me.
  17. Why are you going to do a job before you have priced it?
  18. skyhuck

    Ouch.

    Some say "Go big or go home" I say "Go small and go home"
  19. Pretty sure it wouldl make no difference. My understanding is that fungal spores are everywhere all the time, they only grow into fungus when conditions are correct. A tree needs to be in a weakened, compromised condition to become infected. I had a TO insist we grind out the stumps of some large dead TPO's Beech we removed, to prevent Honey Fungus. I thought it was pointless myself, but the client was happy to have them ground, so we did.
  20. Well it looks like Labour have committed electoral suicide, you really could not make it up, what were they thinking? http://news.sky.com/story/john-mcdonnell-labour-war-gaming-for-run-on-pound-if-elected-11054157
  21. So "voicing" gets a smack?
  22. Yes but Tony and Gordon were the ones who did it wholesale.
  23. You would be happy to "thump" someone for simply "thinking" it, rather than actually doing it?
  24. "mate" really? your clearly ain't very fussy
  25. Do you really think many people read your posts and think they are in any way "intellectual"?
