  1. If only I had the hips for it.
  2. It's all down to Cloud Seeding, innit bro.
  3. With due respect, I think you mean Copper Beech, not Ash. Regarding the proposed reduction, I think it's safe to say that that is a controversial subject on here. If you did have one done it would make it smaller/neater, but only for a couple of years. Most trees, (and shrubs), tend to overcompensate following being cut like that, and grow back more and faster. The resulting growth can also often not be as "natural" looking, and not as healthy for the tree in the future. Beech trees are inherently big, stately, good looking trees. (As such they're sometimes referred to as the Queen of Trees). I think you'll just have to accept that fact. Maybe consider having some Crown Lifting work done, rather than Crown Reduction. (Cut off some of the lowest limbs). This will let more light in and open up the view of outside the garden.

  6. Yep. It's surprising quite how many weird and delusional people there are in the USA. Expect a rash of new Conspiracy Theories if/when The Trump does get back in. As if we don't have enough to contend with already. List of conspiracy theories promoted by Donald Trump - Wikipedia EN.M.WIKIPEDIA.ORG
  7. What can you say? The bloke suffers from a number of weird delusions.
  8. I'm taking it as an excuse for a day off from Wordle. πŸ˜‰
  9. Yep, Ash with Dieback. Not sure of the OPs intentions regarding the tree but I'd suggest it's best removed soonish. It probably won't survive the DB and even if it does, it's not in a good position given the proximity to the shed, judging by the photos. Ash is a fast growing tree. Sorry to be the bad news messenger!
  10. Nice, one of the best. A piece of fine Yam Yam, or (more politely, Black Country) engineering.

    Old Stuff

    Anyone like Tractor Pulling, Traction Engines, Old Tractors and suchlike? I went to a good Steam Rally at the weekend. PXL_20240518_190552268.TS.mp4 It all ended in tears though unfortunately, after a short, sharp downpour on Saturday.

    Smells nice too. Also good for spots in a few years, well after the nits stage.
  15. Nicely. Wordle 1,066 3/6 ⬜⬜⬜🟨⬜ ⬜🟩🟨🟨⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Bit of luck in the mix there though.
  16. It was Bill Gates. Or maybe Tony Blair?
  17. Wordle 1,065 6/6 ⬜⬜⬜🟨⬜ 🟨⬜🟨🟩⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 What a ..... , if only.
  18. Too bloody many viable alternatives. Wordle 1,062 X/6 🟨⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜🟩🟨⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜
  19. Ditto, with a strimmer. A couple of times I've not even noticed the fuel cap is off and proceeded to strim away only to be amazed when it runs out of fuel so quickly a couple of minutes later!
  20. Anyone had a decent look at this new WordleBot analysis yet? I just had a quick scan but couldn't make much sense of it, there's a huge amount of stats and analysis it looks like.
