Defo shop-soiled/damaged; neither of my Fiskars axes were like that and I think one of them came off the hook in a shop display. Send it back.

Almost as valuable as a Black Walnut

Did you hear about the truck driver that gave a witch a lift? She put her hand on his knee and he turned into a layby.

Well if we're sinking to that level... What do you call a man with 20 rabbits up his bum? Warren

Here's one played on a mate of mine when he was a probationary PC in the Met posted to Holborn. Tottenham Court Road and Gower Street are (well were many years ago) 30mph speed zones with the traffic lights at each junction phased so that you could drive them at exactly 30mph and have all the lights turn green for you. At around 9am on a sunny summer's morning John was told to find a stepladder and a Phillips screwdriver and attend the junction of Tott Ct Rd and Grafton Way because the lights were out of phase; allegedly the post to which the lights were attached had a Phillips screw in the top of it for adjusting the phasing.

A medical school one related to me by a mate: Professor holds up a small flask of urine and preaches 'there's an easy way to tell if someone's diabetic; their urine is sweet'. So saying he dips a finger in it, quickly withdraws and sticks it in his mouth - 'yes, definitely from a diabetic patient. Smith (sitting in the front row) - you try one'. Smith nervously gets up, approaches the lectern and is offered a different pot of pee, hesitantly dips his index finger in, takes it out and puts it in his mouth. Yuk. Professor had dipped his index finger but licked his middle finger.

So the slice of stump is laid to regrow; cheers. I think I'm there now.

'Tis too. Fastest it's been in yonks; let's see what it's like Monday!!! -
...2/1 then; how much did you put down?!

Makes sense; a stump of hawthorn will regrow nicely. But @Dorset Hedgelayer sliced the stump down the centre; why? I'm just being thick, not argumentative (on this occasion). Thanks

Pics Mark or it didn't happen! I know you love uploading the pics ?

...one of the nearby witnesses said he heard a smaller explosion followed by a much bigger sound.

Worth getting him/her to go back of X years' accounts: my business turnover and pension added together come to only a moderate amount and for accountant's fees of £500 for just the last year he's won me a tax rebate of just over a grand.

Could I trouble you to talk us through that because it looks to me like you've dispatched a nice multi-stemmed ?hawthorn tree (I'm guessing from the colour of the stump wood)!? I'm wrong of course but don't know why. Thanks

And not what you were hoping for when you told her to give it a tug!

Doom and gloom, doom and gloom. On a happier note a friend just 7 miles away in Reigate has overwintering redpolls in her garden every year. They really are the prettiest things.

I really hope it works; things are desperately slow. Good luck.
