  1. Interesting. No I don't scrape. I've seen references to it but never tried or really looked into the technique. What's it all about?
  2. I just looked it up. Bloody hell, he's a proper narcotics gourmand isn't he? That'll be one thing that him and Trump won't see eye to eye on for starters. "Some executives and board members fear the billionaire’s use of drugs—including LSD, cocaine, ecstasy, mushrooms and ketamine—could harm his companies."
  3. I must have missed that bit of blasphemous dirt on Musk. What's his drug or drugs of choice then? Coke?

  5. The one that that lump, and lots more besides, came from had no spikes. It was much too far gone, there weren't even any branches left on it. It's lovely wood from an aesthetic point of view, pretty colour and figure, bit of a bugger to work and finish though as it's hard and tough. Luckily it makes good firewood also.
  6. That's it then folks, the season of peace and goodwill is over already. At least we had a couple of pages of other news back there. Free of the usual @Johnsondism.

  7. Sharp as a pin you are, or a Robinia spike for that matter.
  8. Yes, correct. The base is Robinia. I think. I'm impressed you got that to be fair. It took me quite a while to figure out what it was when I was cutting the tree down as it was long since dead. Just a big knarly trunk. It was rotted out hollow in the middle. No sign of spalting though as you say. The mushroom itself is Ash, hence the course grain. I've not seen as much spalting in that before.
  9. Uh-uh. Nope. family fortunes Wrong Buzzer - Sound Button WWW.MYINSTANTS.COM Click here to play the sound!
  10. Nice work. But which bit are you referring to?
  11. Wordle 1,280 3/6 🟨⬜⬜🟨⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 That's was a long hiatus.
  12. I fear you may be asking too soon. (If it was only felled a month ago.) Sorry Mark!

    Jokes???

    Me neither, but I guessed Green Laning as it referenced holding gates open?
  14. Can imagine the ice keeper will be too enamoured though.
