  1. That's a horrible freak accident. Poor guy and family
  2. My mate and I were going to work near Bromley today but the forecast changed between 7.45 and 8.30 this morning! No problem to do the job another day so he forewent the pleasure of slip sliding around a large cherry
  3. Ash will burn indeed. Remember that the smaller you split the logs the tighter they'll pack and less will be the airflow. Something to consider. But with ash - not a problem
  4. And take plenty of pics before, during and after, especially of those precious Leylands
  5. Love the finish on Nessie; took some time!
  6. So what is the pic? One satellite on time lapse? You can see loads of satellites on a clear night although that one is very bright; you just need to look for moving stars that obviously aren't planes!

    That's the guy - Dave is his first name. @Arboraeration
  8. I thought it was time lapse of a single satellite. If not what's going on?

    If I'm thinking of the right chap you may want username similar to @arboaeration on here: I thought that was his name but no such name comes up from the list of possibles. Can anyone pin the name down?
  10. Just out of interest what is a slutpriser (just above the map)? ☺️
  11. Do the branches have a small number of thorns? The leaf and flower is looking very much like Elaeagnus x Ebbingei. I've never seen one that size but I'm not aware of anything that says that if a specimen was left alone it couldn't attain it
  12. Frank Matthews' plants are excellent quality in my experience; I bought four apples and a plum earlier this year and they're all in fine fettle. I've seen many others of theirs in the past too - always good
  13. That may be true, I don't know, but one reason they thrive on dunes and sand is that they can manage there where others can't; sea buckthorn doesn't take competition
  14. I'm puzzled too
  15. Maasdam bought from the States. All costs were up front; it was like buying from any other online shop
  16. I'd say good old Lawson's. I think the fresh cut wood smells like a cross between lemon and vanilla; ring any bells? Woolly stuff until it matures (several decades), then the heartwood can be as hard as iron
  17. SRT; sixty rope technique?
  18. Working with you must be fun you twat 😂

    Jokes???

    Groan!
  20. Down to sentencing; the law allows what you suggest as the offence of GBH doesn't require any assault, merely the causing of said Harm
  21. Yes yes yes!
  22. In fact name them all please! The White - a Wood White?

    DHL

    The drivers are given silly targets so often lie electronically to 'meet' those targets. I think that's what lies at the bottom of many problems. But if you think we have problems here try sending parcels to rural Spain!
  24. Elephant Hawk. No idea whether Large or Small but probably Large. Nice find; Was there wilowherb nearby? He/she (I think they're non-binary 😆) will have been looking for soft ground into which to bury and pupate
  25. Are you telling me Home Alone 2 isn't true to life? Nooooo.......
