  1. I know the one you mean too, tried to find it myself because I did find out what it was after rooting about, I cant remember it now off hand but certainly could work it again if found. I seem to remeber finding a reference maybe the book you have right now! butin of one that is known to cause failures, a rarity amoung cankers as you know! Whats your interests? researching it by chance?
  2. If there is one thing you can be certain of its that i am learning to ignore it all, slowly but surely, kiddy steps one dig at a time. Its hard, and ingrained, people should get a response fitting their remarks! but I am trying so hard to walk away:thumbup1: but some folk just have it coming!
  3. Ha ha fair play, am I hard to please Steve?
  4. its my opinion, and its shared by others.
  5. I've been posting a lot less lately, realising that there is a lot more negativity and gradual dwindling of good debates. I dont have to listen to this crap, and its detracting from the thread. another thread that has lost its momentum for me, its funny isnt it, post away on body languages, decay fungi in fact anything particularly interesting and no one has too much to say. I wonder why?.... Im bored of personal crap being waged on forum, this place used to have such a good family atmosphere.
  6. what would the point in that be if its the councils shout!
  7. lol, would seem you really are a "special case" Robin!
  8. it looks like its council owned land, that is being released for development under the rules and regs for land aquisition housing blah blah. never mind guys, guess I will have to look elswhere for some support, this was a very LONG shot.
  9. I cant offer much without pics of descriptive comments, other than it will probably require a reduction.
  10. but if the planning goes through nothing can be done Huck,
  11. If you want recommendations its a hell of a lot easier for us when we have the full picture, I.e context, crown form/condition, rpa issues etc I noticed there is a bark depression at the fungal site, indicating the death or dysfunction of a portion of the root system.
  12. trust you! give me a while and will dig out some details:001_cool:
  13. Could everyone please please help my friends save this woodland, its the last green island in an urbanised zone, dont let this happen guys and girls, we need a thousand votes and theres 12000 of us here. come on and make a difference, do it https://www.facebook.com/FriendsOfSpeckledWood
  14. Had a great day in Cassiobury park today, the annual family picnic was washed out but I got a few shots in as always!
  15. I would go with Lipsiense given the form, no mycelium in hymenium as only one layer thus far, check back next season, though I am not convinced its a reliable feature at the moment. It SHOULD be though as I think its this that makes the lipsiense the ideal fruitbody for the flat foot fly
  16. Rob, wood wasps dont have stings they have ovipositors for probing bore holes in wood, it is possible it bit you but highly unlikely.
  17. wood wasps dont sting you! Hornet most likely
  18. Saw this cracking example of hispidus on whitebeam yesterday, love the contrast of colour in these images.
  19. thats a bummer, didnt see these new replies but am watching Charlie dimmock river walks and they was just talking about these!
  20. Tony and steve I am sure will be along sooner or later, then again, maybe they like me think this whole conversation is pathetic! trust me, you have it all wrong, certainly about me of that you can be certain. do you really beieve that I was expecting love and glory posting reductions on an arb forum? lol dont make me laugh you nutter,
  21. dont see them very often bout once or twice a year when its hot. theres a few big wood wasps like this one, give you a fright if they fly in on your peripheral vision!
  22. you need to study green keeping before that statement! Beaconsfield golf course is an award winner for ecology though, thats why I love working there Bill is well into it.
