    Resting Cat!

    Yep! The cat will recover first but the plant should too - after drying out and growing new foliage following well-meaning housesitter's winter watering!

    Resting Cat!

    Does this count as 'resting'?! One of my daughter's. After months cooped up living at 1000m near Chamonix the great outdoors beckoned today. Five hours later...
  3.

  4. Difficult to judge without a pic from further away to give context but I wouldn't tickle the branch as you suggest; take a lot more off as re-growth will largely happen from immediately below the cut as well as along the length of the branch (water growth). In the bottom pic how about just behind that bird feeder, leaving the tuft already there? Those are long branches that will be happy to have some end weight removed.
  5. The prices are ex VAT! So a £199 pr of SIP Canopy are actually £238.80! Perhaps not the massive bargains that they appear to be at first glance
  6. There's one down on the right that hasn't even been started, presumably for the same reason; BT line Spaghetti Junction

  11. Bloody foreigners!!!
  12. Stupid boy Pike
  13. Introduced to the South Downs NP in 2008 Mick I became aware when I saw a pair doing very impressive courtship tumbling using the cliff updraughts next to Cuckmere Haven about seven years ago
  14. Feeling some serious shockin' - no g - at the news
  15. Yes, you can whack them. I removed one a few years back that the owner hated and so had pulled all new growth from annually; it never got the message
  16. Three sycamore stems to remove from two trees. Located behind shops with rear access 'road'. Bordering rear residential neighbours. Access good only on foot though drag could be much worse. Anyone interested? I've sold the job rather well I think ☺️

    I also like Billy Connolly's method: I'm stark naked and I'm opening the door in 5-4-3...

  19. Stunning timber. Any sensible turners would be drooling at the prospect of that. Pity Steve isn't still here. Or is he...? @se7enthdevil
  20. Did the A23 feature Mick? An embarrassment; it really is disgusting but not alone sadly. As for the idea of all those horrible people throwing stuff out of their car windows I never see it. What I see is plastic sheet, dumpy bags and the like that could only have come off commercial vehicles. I hang back from dustcarts and recycling material carriers as they're the worst offenders!

    Topical

    That's a very good point; there's a massive difference between humour and gloating. The latter really is pretty sick but if we stopped humour every time someone felt offended humour would cease to exist. That said I think the original post was a bit close to the knuckle; explaining the difference between that and humour is difficult as it wasn't gloating. Just too soon maybe as we don't know how bad His Maj is.
  22. Mark, I've ping ponged between Direct Line and Hastings Direct for several years now. Worth a look maybe

    Resting Cat!

    This one of ours is a thermometer when the burner's lit; the hotter the room the longer the cat

  25. What a rewarding project; well done!
