  1. Well, they're a bit too multi-coloured aren't they?
  2. We did consider it as an opportunity to make a bit of trouser money. Those pots have got to be at least a Fiver each to buy from new. If you guys were local I'd happily share them around, I'm very tempted to go over there tomorrow to get more, hate to see good stuff going to waste.
  3. So, my brother was out this morning doing his civic duty. Helping to clear up some fly tipped rubbish. Big commercial grade plant pots. Obviously been dumped as the bi-product of a large weed growing operation. Must have been very large, industrial, as he took 120 but said there was still 100s left. I'll be having a fair portion of them for the garden, they're ideal for cucumbers, tomatoes and other large plants. Had some similar that I got years ago, from a police raid apparently. (Or maybe they'll come in handy for my retirement. πŸ˜‰)

  5. That looks the bollox, regardless of colour. Snap it up I say. My mate swaggered around in an even brighter yellow than that Toyota MR2 years ago, the chicks loved. Or so he maintained!
  6. If only that were true, that'd be muchly bigly entertaining. He wouldn't stand a chance against her.
  7. Fecund I tell ya. Laden with the promise of spring. The pictures don't do it justice, quite how much blossom there is this year. Plums, apples and pears.
  8. Are you planning to hand make the handles or use machines? If the latter, e.g. on a lathe then I'd let the wood season first. Otherwise shape it when green and then leave to shrink for final fitting, as Dan says.
  9. I posted this before, but I'll shamelessly show it off again. A rake that me and the lad made at the start of the year. Draw knifed handle from green ash, head and times from seasoned ash and random, (crap) dowel.

  11. Fecund. That's how a lot of stuff is looking here.
  12. Earwigs
  13. Likewise, thinking you're 25 years older than you actually are is a sure fire way to age yourself more.
  14. Eh, what's that got to do with anything ? Are you a bee? 🐝
  15. I think you'd like these Davey.
  16. He also said that chlorinated Chicken from American is okay. Not exactly the famers friend with views like that.
  17. I can't see that being particularly lucrative clickbait to be honest. I wouldn't have thought that as an ex city trader, with millions of pounds of earnings in his pocket, he's motivated much by making a few bob on tinternet either. Obviously he has an agenda, but is it really that bad an agenda?
  18. Any thoughts on the Signal debacle or Trump tariffs on the UK Gareth? Are they worse or better than Biden's son being a Coke Head?
  19. One of the most pertinent issues right now, wealth inequality and it's rapid rise. IMO, a much bigger factor in why we're so ****************ed, rather than because of Labour/immigration/Net Zero efforts etc etc. I predict the Covid trigger word will completely prevent any meaningful discussion of it though. The Scale of Economic Inequality in the UK - Equality Trust EQUALITYTRUST.ORG.UK The UK has very high inequality of income compared to other developed countries. The UK's wealth inequality is much more...
  20. It was tongue in cheek Les.
  21. I'm not sure that this was quite the response that was hoped for guys. Valuable and free market research though I suppose.
