  1. Praise where praise is due, Pete. That sounds lovely. A dewy English summer evening on a plate.
  2. I see those mushrooms. Sailing close to the wind. Restraint is key with pizzas.
  3. I’ve just won a butchers’ block, which I suspect is partially beech. Will take a photo later or tomorrow just because I’m pleased as punch with it.
  4. I sold some alder to someone who makes a particular type of harp (Swedish?) with it.
  5. Palms in the UK are unspeakably gauche. Bin it before your neighbours notice.
  6. The civil service write it (and to an extent the party managements whip it). The celebrities only really talk about it on the TV. Also bear in mind how much secondary legislation goes through without ever being looked at. There might be some to and fro on a piece of primary legislation (UK Public General Acts) but ten times as much secondary (Statutory Instruments, regulations) goes through just by being put in a box for two weeks. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/explore/legislatures/uk 2024: 25 UK Public General Acts 1361 Statutory Instruments Fifty-four times as many then.
  7. Noteworthily for tree people, carabiners, pulleys etc (DMM and ISC). But broadly speaking yes. Wales is basically the junk drawer of the UK.
  8. Like Squaredy says, judges make plenty of law. Murder is a common law offence. There’s no Murder Act.
  9. We didn't sell any tickets because we've got no fans. I thought it was funny, as did my guitarist. Sadly I think it went over the head of the youth who runs the venue. Too classical a reference for him.
  10. I sent that to a music venue the other week, as part of a discusion about ticket sales.
  11. The Durham Miners' Gala an example, I'm consistently informed.
  12. So you're an immigrant who plunders the local fish stocks and consorts with thieves. Half a crimewave from another hemisphere. Just as well you're not black.
  13. Please say you know the prisoner.
  14. Yes. I’m normally very live and let live but I’m enduring a bout of pronounced realism this morning. Good luck though.
  15. Votes are for plebs. Let anyone in. How long they stay can be dictated by who will let them a room, sell them food or employ them. No dole, no public property to camp on (perhaps keep the intertidal/littoral zone as common property so they have a rock to sit on waiting for the ferry). The proportion who want them will be the proportion who get them. Can’t get fairer.
  16. Tables will be cheaper and easier. If he wants it rustic, get people to bring their dogs.
  17. Grappling hook on your christmas list.
  18. Wot. No Avant?
  19. Right o. Lovely looking job. Just the right amount of difficulty to maintain interest.
  20. OK. Why negative rigging instead of dropping the 2.1s?
  21. What would you have done differently if there was no wind on day two? Did you plan it the way you did it from the outset?
  22. Nearly bought one of the proper waterproof skirts last winter. Probably still should.
  23. Did you still vote though?
  24. Yeah. I want to trade freely with European people. That's why I don't want to be in the EU or the UK.
