  1. Is it heading our way ?I love the snow suns out here atm no sign of it in the air we had a pretty impressive load of lightening pass by us last night the sky turned really black but no snow lol

     

    yup, same here - really black and some really impressive lightning last night - best bonfire display ever, albeit a short display.

  2. Yes Tony, good article

     

    'If the fungus does not adapt, it will kill its hosts and so die out itself.'

     

    It will just take some time for the balance to be reached where both the trees and fungus live in harmony. The trees will struggle initially until they have learned to cope with the new kid on the block.

  3. Got a bit soggy walking back home from helping out a contractor on a new stretch of trailway. Just typical it didnt rain all day until i got within 150 metres of home then it chucked it down.

     

    Perfect day then - nip indoors in the dry after a good days work in the dry :lol:

  4. My wood flooring 2 ft I front of my stove was 2% this summer, my internal doors were about14%

     

    Best I found in my stack was a bit of pear at about 14% was from a dead tree

     

    Worst was a bit of robinia stored as cord for 1 year covered, then cut,split and stacked for a year 24%

    Got a new moisture meter and couldn't help yourself Kev :lol::lol:

     

    Interesting - have got a bit of what I think was robinia in my pile - tree been down a couple of years and been stacked since and still seems quite wet, but dont have a meter to check.

    Something a bit weird is happening. Logged in as normal to be greeted with welcome renewablejohn but then login and password screen reappears as though I have not logged in. Tried to post and came back saying not logged in fill in form below. Totally went out of system back to google came in again to find already logged onto system hence able to post this to you.

     

    same here, but did have it for the last few days on the old forum as well - presumed to be part of the teething troubles??

  6. Oh it's all about the food. We have a selection of meats or Xmas. Spent ages cooking on the eve and the morn. It's got to be properly done and its the one time of year the other half is not allowed to touch the oven.

     

    spot on Rich

     

    Anybody that knows me and still feels like giving us a prezzie know to give something interesting food wise :thumbup1:

    Normally got a few treats to keep me going well into the new year :thumbup:

  7. Not a Christmas fan I'm afraid. Find it a bit hypocritical to be honest and having been raised in England it seems even less like Christmas when you're sitting in 30 degree heat and having a BBQ for Xmas lunch. The tree and lights go up to keep the Mrs happy.

     

    Not a fan here either - one big money making scam. :thumbdown:

    Only white on xmas should be the beach sand :thumbup1:

    Family local to us who just skip out on the whole thing by putting their money towards a holiday on the beach somewhere warm. Seems the most sensible idea - come back when the madness has receeded

     

    Lets face it, it is more for children, but the way they get deluged with plastic tat is ruining it for them - they are very excited to start with, but soon loose interest when the toys fall apart after 5 minutes and they go back to their old favourites.

    Yes I have tried to explain that to the the wife and her mum :sneaky2:

     

    The only thing I like is trying out some different foods.

     

    bah humbug :lol:

  8. How does the dyneema cope with the dirt etc and mechanical damage - not that I have any experience of using dyneema in this sort of situation, but would have thought this could be the down side to it compared with wire?
