    Whose land? Whose tree?

    Your bloke sounds like a pain in the arse but do bear in mind you posted a video a while ago of you calling your labourer a wanker or something. You're probably not cultivating an atmosphere of professionalism.

    Rope wrenches are midline attachable. Mine is anyway.

    Not an expert but that looks like absolutely superb quality timber.

    Probably low but post photos and you never know what value someone might see in them. Thinking of alternative solutions, some might say you’ve got 13 acres to store the logs. Slam it down, burn the brash if you can be bothered and see if you can live long enough for the trees to rot before you do. It’ll be like a game.

    Disappointed with all the touchy feely bollocks about a new era of thoughtful democracy. I hope someone makes a sequel about six months into the future. Tyrion will have syphilis, the women will be back to being scared and pregnant and the blokes will have parked Bran on a beach at low tide and started a war.

    That's because phone use is illegal. They were texting on their lap so nobody saw the phone. If they just held the thing to their ear, they could keep looking at the road.

    Thanks,@Mark J and@Gary Prentice. I’ll have a look on the laptop later. I assume these methods of ascribing a monetary value to trees are what the courts use when someone’s suing someone for harming/stealing/converting/etc a tree?

    Tell me more. I was speaking from an entirely lay perspective. I've never done any of the paperwork for trees. I just take chainsaws to them.

    Fell it. Some engineer driving to his office, then to the site, then back to his office, making and transporting the extra wall materials, builders driving back and forth rebuilding it however many times; all unnecessary financial and environmental cost.

    I think it's the facelift after mine that does that. This one just pulls trees and bare bitches.

    Forestry today. Extracting and processing cherry mainly. Low impact. Low ground pressure. Relaxed workers.

    Fabulous.

    Bolam had me pissing myself a few weeks ago when he posted about the poor quality of new build houses. “At least you get a nice new eucalyptus on the front lawn though.”

    Can you talk us through what a statutory demand is and when they should be used (before/after litigation) please. I think I’ve worked it out but you explain things pretty well.
  18. AHPP
    Nice gaff.
  19. AHPP
    Do you KNOW that to be true? I suspect it's not but the calculation to be certain is probably pretty fearsome. I don't think either of us know for certain.

    Not sure to be honest. The batteries are full. I think I've got the controller set to charge at 14.3-14.5v and now I've put a load on it to see how many amps are coming in, it's sat happily at 14.4v in oblique bright sunshine. Highest amp readout observed on the controller over twenty seconds or so was 3.6 but it's jumping around and I doubt is drinking in the max considering how full the batteries are.

    I have an abundance of electricity in summer and only just enough in winter. I'm planning to add a wind turbine to make winter easier. Northern England.

    £100 - 500W of panels £10 - some hinges and coach bolts to hang them up £20 - charge controller £30 - wiring £20 - assorted tat like cigarette lighter sockets £7 - my little inverter £30 - bigger inverter £5 - fuel to collect batteries I get for free (paid for through my own wit and ingenuity if you prefer) £222 - total It's been up for two years and I'll be amazed if I have serious problems before 10 years. Charge controllers and inverters are the things that can go wrong. My last larger inverter lasted 5 years but most of that was bumping around in a van, not sat still in a house. I bought the stuff outright and I get no subsidies.

    When you consider the cost of wars to get the petrol/diesel and the coincident oppression from a state large enough to wage those wars, petrol/diesel is pretty expensive. Rudolf Diesel designed his eponymous engine to run on vegetable oil, which is easily grown in most places. It's all sunshine power bear in mind. Black oil has just sat in the ground for a long time.

    Whereas I gave up posting YouTube videos.
