  1. I need to get a bat survey done on my house. Yes, you heard right. Is there anyone near BN8 who could do this for me please? Cheers, Jon
  2. Ffs - you and your Croydon PTSD - go and get it sorted!

    Jokes???

  4. Not quite armfuls but certainly not a stem at a time; fistfuls... But do try to avoid feeding large amounts of the leaf without some stems too; they're fibrous so can wrap but it's no biggie - I've chipped Phormium (New Zealand Flax) without issue
  5. Bamboo's no problem to sharp blades and correct anvil gap. I have a wee chipper and chip the stuff regularly; never had a problem with it. Laurel's fine too; I love the smell. That cyanide... oh yeah!
  6. I find the Croydon tree team very good; 9 times out of 10 I get same day response to TPO/CA checks
  7. Wow. Dreamy

  9. This is better than television! Sorry to be trite @Slad but it is intriguing - you joining up the dots. Good work and keep it up
  10. No, trespass is not a criminal offence although there are offences of Criminal Trespass (not applicable here). I'm sure it won't come to it but if things turn nasty civil law allows injunctions, in this case probably 'to not enter any land or premises owned or controlled by X (you)'. Breaching that - a Court order - is like Contempt of Court; it doesn't go down well and attracts substantial penalties because it's basically a snub of the Court. Just for your info though as I say I'm sure things won't get near that state of affairs in your case.
  11. ..and peace (see first 2/3 of your post), social welfare, a national health service etc etc

  14. Gents, how are you getting this accuracy? My understanding of such matters is that even Land Registry records often don't allow boundary disputes to be settled; final determination could be down to a court of law.
  15. On my mate's farm in Caithness last week
  16. A good part of the reason for diverting was to experience the Tarmachan Cafe in Crathie; it's highly recommended by my daughter who was there a month ago touring with a couple of girlfriends. I was there on Tuesday of last week. Guess which day the cafe closes along with Sunday 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
  17. I drove past it last week while taking a detour through the Cairngorms for a change from the A9. It is something else; as Julian says it's surreal. And the detour was so worth it; what a drive up to Glenshee, Lecht and then back to Inverness via Tomintoul. Stopping for a panini and coffee along the way of course

    Like Mick Dundee in Noo York!
  19. Ever thought of going into sports field management? 😁
  20. Yep, just as likely 😂
  21. Wish I'd kept my mouth shut now. 10 acres? Great stuff; puts my square yards into a sort of 'how small do I feel' perspective! Respect for that 👍 We have Common Spotted and Pyramidal orchids; I'm surprised to see them flowering in what until this year was always lawn.
  22. Just to speculate here and I am doing only that... Suspect is identified and interviewed: the matter is put to the CPS who say 'insufficient evidence for a realistic prospect of conviction'. Police and RSPB say '*** it; give us £100 then'. Pure speculation and £100 sort of voluntary payment (it's not a fine) is pathetic
  23. Or you could forego the 'pleasure' of mowing and enjoy the motion of the grass, the bugle, the buttercups, the clover, the bees, the butterflies... 😊
