Good webcam action. Being next to the sea during a storm is one of the most exhilarating things to do I reckon. Mind you they've had it a bit too rough in the left hand corner of the south coast these last couple of days. Storm surge plus high tides has been bad news down there. Teignmouth Pier washes away and sea wall crumbles during Storm Ingrid WWW.BBC.CO.UK Part of a historic pier washes away and a sea wall next to a railway line crumbles as Storm Ingrid lashes Devon and Cornwall. Funny thing is I was right there at new year and the sea was like glass, never seen it so calm and flat.

Keep thinking. He. I was listening to Question Time, he was a panelist.

Oh dear. If only you could make contact with some tree surgeons or foresters!

What makes you think he was talking about Starmer, or even Trump?

I've just heard him described as an Alpha Thicko. Very app.

I've got one of those top ones. The leather discs make a really good handle, comfy and grippy. I bought it in a French hypermarket years ago. Badged as a Serpe Italien I seem to remember.

S&J Family tree WWW.TIMELESSTOOLS.CO.UK There used to be so many edge tool makers around, they gradually got bought up and amalgamated over time. I've seen other family trees like this one as well.

Nah, I think not Medlar.

Good on a plate apparently.

Wallabies.

That bottom LH corner one is most odd. Does it have a cutting edge even?

No experience myself, but I did happen to see this recently. There might be some useful information in that thread. https://www.ukworkshop.co.uk/threads/starlink.154939/#post-1849984

I'd say its 50:50 between grabbing the valuable natural resources and narcissism. The resources only now becoming available because the ice is melting due to the "Green New Scam". His fragile ego was severely damaged when he didn't get the big gold medal last year. Did you see any of the big speech yesterday? It was an ultimate reality TV opportunity. The normal load of old guff: fake news, exaggeration, self-aggrandisement, ("some people say" - lots of stuff). The new standard fodder for world stage events of great significance like this. He talked a lot about windmills, he really doesn't like them. They cost $1000 for every blade rotation I think he said. You could probably knock us up a spreadsheet to show dollars per radian, if you fancy it. He mentioned Iceland a few times as well, which was bizarre. Compare all that to the statesmanship displayed by Mark Carnie the day before. In other news. As well as Blair, Putin and Lukashenko have also now had an invitation to join Trumps latest get-rich-quick real estate scheme. AKA the Gaza Board of Peace. Nice. Big news like this is only now making it into the headlines, with so much other noise flooding the zone. If there are any aliens looking down on us they must be laughing their socks off now.

I'm going to throw Vibernum in.

I read something interesting the other day. Dark personalities in the digital arena: how psychopathy and narcissism shape online political participation WWW.NATURE.COM Humanities and Social Sciences Communications - Dark personalities in the digital arena: how psychopathy and... This is an abstract of the abstract as it were: "Notably, the relationship between psychopathy and participation is stronger among individuals with lower cognitive ability in five countries, suggesting that those with both high psychopathy and low cognitive ability are the most actively involved in online political engagement."

Agreed, very interesting. Something must have moved to create that tension. That smaller trunk, (or is it another bigger, aerial, root?), that's being girdled - has that leaned over at some point? It doesn't look to be vertical and seems to be welding to the main trunk. More photos required.

Good point. Any idea how long the alkalinity takes to dissipate? I've been dressing various fruit trees and shrubs around the garden every time I empty the ash pan, about once a week on average. For the potash, to aid fruiting, not to address a soil acidity issue. Each tree/plant has probably had 1 or 2 pans every year for the last 5 years maybe. No adverse affects yet, but I'm just wondering if I need to ease off if the soil is getting more and more alkaline. I could test it I suppose but .........
