Mondell What you doing in Afghanistan?

Where is here? Pine trees and hot, ummm. Do you know what kind of pine?

Hypothetically. The only way to realise the true "value" of the car is to use redirects so that the anchor line is pulling it straight up.

We may have done so in a previous reincarnation.

It's not an altogether preposterous idea it's true. How do you factor in Israel and Iran though? The US and Israel are bezzies, Russia and Iran are bezzies, but Israel and Iran are sworn enemies. That's going to be one big, busy, uncomfortable bed.

Sad times indeed. It's a shit throwaway society we live in. There is some hope maybe, with things like the Right to Repair movement gaining momentum. A decent local cobbler is worth their weight in gold. I've had a few pairs of shoes saved from the bin on a few occasions, and the guy has only charged a pittance really. Hiking boots are probably a bit too specialised I guess, unfortunately.

He's doubtless been the target of many assassination attempts already. Like any good crackpot dictator though he is hyper-paranoid about it so has escaped this far and as a control freak he's made damn sure no news of any such attempt has been published. Heaven forbid he were to show any human weakness. Also, I suspect that the majority of the Russian people have no idea of the true scope of his horrendous deeds. Such is the scale of media control and propaganda. So maybe, there's not that many of his subjects within the country how actually want to kill him. It's a great shame for the Russian people, and the rest of us, that Putin was able to get to Navalny in the end.

The guy is obsessed by Batman and other such stuff apparently. BBC Radio 4 - X Man: The Elon Musk Origin Story WWW.BBC.CO.UK Elon Musk wants to shape our future. How did science fiction shape him?

What's coke got to do with Zelensky or Ukraine? Is that another Trump (Putin), claim or something?
-
Two cracking albums. CDs - might as well be stone age tech, I know. I've got too many to just throw away though, so why not buy a few more?

I completely get why Trump would blame Ukraine, it was to be expected. What I don't get is why a few people still think he's the best thing since sliced bread. Time to wake up, shake up!

Hawthorn - coppice, pollard or ignore?

Fair enough, only messing. I thought it looked lower but must be the photo, or my eyes. -

Yeah, I thought it was Elder where the fairies lived. Witches though, they venerate Rowan, so don't cut them down either! -

Grand firewood too. Is that like a fisherman's 5 foot?! -
That was kind of my thoughts, kick on with them as they are. A pair of leather gloves I had once used to get much too hard and stiff after they'd been soaked and then dried. I got pissed off in the end and deliberately coated them in chain oil. They were lovely and supple after that, with the added bonus of being a bit more waterproof. Too slick and slippery initially but that soon wore off.

Very envious of that I must say, looks great. I love skating but never had the opportunity to try the "wild" version. Interesting that you've had to clear the snow off first. Is that a lake, if so do you check ice thickness before committing? Or is it shallow enough not to be a danger?
-
Well, would you look at that; the sun and temperatures above 3deg. Something we've not seen for weeks now.

Wolves anyone? Stumbling across one of them in the Highlands would certainly be a little more spicy than an erroneously released pig or overgrown domestic cat, as has happened a few times recently. Reintroducing wolves could expand woodland areas and reduce CO2 – study WWW.FORESTRYJOURNAL.CO.UK The reintroduction of wolves to Scotland could lead to the natural expansion of woodland and help combat climate...
