  1. Not if I have to ride there pillion.! I've been warned about you !!.Yep lets get it together a weekend workout in Burnham beeches. I'll do the bats stuff,perhaps Hama and/ or David could do the Fung/Lichen/tree analysis bit? Would we all be talking at the same time though. I think we would have to have the old spoon in the hand rule !!!. All joking apart lets see how many people are interested.
  2. Was he highly strung ? did someone tell him to get knotted? or was it just the last straw !!! Is that what's called baling out? Is he a cereal offender ??
  3. forgot to mention I could organise a veteran tree run in Herefordshire for all the bikers out there.Think amazing trees,amazing roads, local speed camera knowledge !!!!.Trees to climb.What more do you want ?? Some bat tuition-not compulsory of course !!!!!!
  4. Descendants of Pugh, Pugh, Barney, Mcgrew, Cuthbert,Dibble and Grout perhaps ??
  5. Or was that your 'lunge pose' for a different thread !!
  6. I see the invisible man still hangs out there.Did you manage to throttle him or did he get away again ? !!!
  7. morning David, sorry I'm late. Brings back memories of when I used to take my gang there many moons ago.Interesting trees.Like your sepia print !! Could be a good location for me to come and do a 'toolbox talk about bats and trees' for interested arbs
  8. If you don't have any joy I will come and give you a toolbox talk ,take a tour of some trees and show you likely habitat etc. Also give you an intro into the species you are most likely to come across,and give you a folder of pics etc/or cd. Need a min. no of 6 @ £85-00 to make it pay and will give each of you a cert. of attendance and an invoice so that you can claim the money off the taxman. I will come for a morning session or an afternoon session (5 hours ) and could go hunting actual bats in the evening for a bit more dosh if the evening temperature looks promising. No course currently available will give you a licence for bats. BUt with this level of awareness you could form a useful liason with a local licenced bat surveyor to inspect trees for bats and make yourselves some easy money doing what you enjoy already - Climbing around in trees etc. You can email me on [email protected] if it is of interest or you want more details. I could do the same pretty much anywhere in the UK given a bit of notice and some useful sized trees in the surrounding area. I am thinking of doing a long weekend course that would include veteran trees and other stuff/ and camping/ caravan/ bnb,bring the family whatever at my home location in Herefordshire.I will put this on a new forum with much more detail and pics/lists of options etc.
  9. Obviously beaten by the bright one here !!!! Thank Tony. How could I mix my drinks?? I must start to measure up or I will be in trouble.Cheers.......... Down the hatch etc etc.
  10. My kids are probably older than you and would most vociferously object to the prospect of being sold into slavery. One lives in deepest Sutton and works in the city, Commutes by bike tho !
  11. Nearly as long as you have to wait for one then !!!!
  12. So. Still no smoke without fire then ?? How about the Leonard Rossiter/Joan Collins ads for ? ( was it Cinzano ??)Ah can't concentrate on the spoken word you see.Just the image !!!!!!!!
  13. Ouch ! Are you still a two wheeler. Or are you still in hibernation in W 1.? Sorry you do not know who the hell I am.......I am ( or was till finances took a downturn a fellow biker ) Hama will give you the bad news !!
  14. Hi Janey, Get your knee down,we need you on another thread ! See Hama !!
  15. Definately NOT that sort of bike. She has actually posted in the last couple of days if you check Hama. She's probably out adjusting her rear sets now to test our new found friends underpants !!
  16. Give us a break. we're avin a larf wiv taupoman and is ads. Can't the deep techo stuff wait til tumorra ? Get a Life !!!!! ( P S Luv ya .}
  17. I have the impression she is pretty feisty.We'd better be careful !!!!.She rides a mean machine by all accounts. (motorciccle).
  18. I think it was something to do with Boots if you delve into it more closely. Alternatively ask the big smoke boys, day speak dat sorta lingo.
  19. Ah Yes I had forgotten the bear necessities of life. Surely that advert was canned.??
  20. Where are all our moderators tonight. Do you think they have thumbprints on the forehead perchance. Not me I always have the last word "yes dear ". !!!! I was brought to believe women should be obscene and not heard !! Now that Janey.Hmm she didn't even stop to pick up that poor Arb's pencil sharpener for him.Obviously a bad hair day !!!! Hi Janey.Look forward to meeting you some time when we can discuss leather. No bike leather you lot !!!!
  21. Hello down under ( is that a good start ?? ) How long is that brash fire going to continue on your avatar.Are you boasting about your daily output ??.... I loved the Hamlet adverts , I could equate to lots of the situations and it really made me laugh. The cigars were crap really and I only bought them as a last resort. Sadly no money now.These days forced to follow other people down the street and inhale their fumes !!!!!
  22. Indeed to goodness yes !!!!!!! Ruth Maddoc - now there was a fungi .........Is that sexist. Have I broken the rules ,will I be banished into oblivion with only a measly 100 posts to my name. Perhaps we should start a new thread on the worst humour (sic- yes very !!!!) on the forum. Personally I love it, make em laugh and they can't be angry. I think there are some really brilliant minds at work on here to deflate egos etc. Keep it coming boys. ut more importantly knowledge in abundance for us all to hoover up and act upon.
  23. Bit worried about the owl. Think you need to wise up a tad. Did someone shout get stuffed ????
  24. looks more like Banzai to me.!!...I'm only jealous really !!
