  1. Maybe, but getting someones attention and getting their money are very different things. There a companies that I actively avoid, because their advertising annoys me.
  2. Or maybe "The original and the best, don't buy the Forst copy you see, or you'll regret it."
  3. I think it would possibly enhance ones reputation
  4. If they did try to prosecute, the fact that the tree(s) was not worthy of a TPO would make their case pretty weak, I would have thought.
  5. Ah, yes but I did not spell that, I simply included and agreed with another post. Although spelt incorrectly, I knew which machine was being referred too.
  6. Really? which word is spelt incorrectly? My spelling is very poor, but spell check suggests that "thats" "the" and "truth" are all spelt correctly?
  7. We do lose some fabulous view to trees planted without much thought, IMO.
  8. Are they holes?
  9. Yes I had a golly wog and a full set of badges. I also recall my mother having some fabric dye that was labelled "nigger brown" different times.
  10. Well its what I was told as a boy, made sense to me, maybe I've been mislead??
  11. Ah!! I scrolled down and found the article. Actually a "nigger" was a sort of saw horse, used when processing fire wood, so the term refers to loosing the tool within the pile of logs. So not racist at all, I'm sure no one will want facts to get in the way of a good bit of hysteria and outrage.
  12. When I click on the link, all I get is a list of categories in blue.
  13. Nah, they know full well, but rely on the ignorance and compliance of the public and the toadying of many professionals:sneaky2:
  14. Or the planing department is trying to extend their powers, rather than do the required paper work Rather like one local to me, who put replanting conditions on un-apaused 211 notices and claim listed building status protects the trees within the garden of the listed house
  15. No thanks
  16. Technology should change the way we do things. I've had ride on mowers for the last 14 years, they are a real pain, they are noisy, heavy and expensive to run. Collecting the grass is a pain, if the weather is bad I get behind and the grass becomes long and the job more difficult and the resulting finish poorer. If the ground is wet and soft they damage it. They need servicing and always seem to have some fault or other. I've just installed an auto mower, its fantastic!!! It will cost a tiny amount to run, its light weight and silent, does no land damage, cuts the grass constantly producing no real clippings. Rather than a big heavy powerful thing hacking at thick heavy grass, this is a small gentle machine simply nibbling away at the grass.
  17. If you co-own your fine My father and bother are both joiners, they co-own all the tools in their workshop
  18. Although if you are only using it yourself it need only have the safety features required at the time of manufacture.
  19. The stone age did not come to an end because we ran out of stones.
  20. Maybe a thread for each nut?
  21. While I take your point, is this or most other dogs going get any action? Sure I want to keep my nuts, but I also expect to put them to good use on a very regular basis, not sure I be that bothered about keeping them if I was never going to get the chance to use them, would it not be pretty frustrating?
  22. Turnover is vanity, profit is reality.
