He'll enjoy prison.

I am pleased to announce a marketing partnership with industry ambassador Mark Bolam. Mark comes to the business from a long and successful tenure at Remploy and looks forward to 2 o'clock beers on a Tuesday.

"Neighbour" has deliberately planted a Salix Caprea next to our property.

They're more pissed off about being bullied by their neighbour than they are about the tree itself. -
Closer but no cigar. Shot's from behind him and there's more emotion in it.

The only time I've seen Reg Coates anything more than 2% animated about anything was a video of him calling some bloke a wanker in a coffee shop car park.
-
That is indeed a great photo. I imagine he's using it on his website. It's a says-it-all photo. He's getting the job. Mick surmises correctly. Logo. Inspiration and then my artist can draw from it. Can't be nicking other people's photos directly.

Good thought but alas, not in there. I have a horrible feeling it was an American on facebook.

I’m trying to find a particular photo/drawing that someone on here I’m sure will know. It’s a bloke on a stem, leaning right back with his arms both outstretched, a top handle in one hand. A euphoric/celebratory pose. It’s possibly a profile picture of someone on Facebook/Instagram/YouTube. A bushel of apples to whoever finds it.

A rare treat to see a dealer actually put the price on something. So much stuff they just expect you to guess. Or they want you to call so they can gauge from your voice how much they can roll you for. Just have a bloody price. @monkeybusiness Bobcat

Nah. Poisoning it is petty smallthink and then he'll just come up with some other way to bully you. You have the might of institutions that can imprison him available to you for £150 risk (and it's a low risk). Use that. You'll stay in the right and he'll learn a lesson. -

"Get your encroaching roots and branches off my land or I'll have them cut back and bill you for it." Then do it. Pay someone £100 to snip the branches off at the fenceline and dig straight down and sever the roots. Couple of recorded letters. £35 small claim issue fee. Everyone gansta until the letter from Northampton. -
Have I pointed out that AI is shit this week? A mate (solicitor) was over looking at a legal thing with me the other day. "Hang on. I'll put it through chat GPT." "Don't bother. It's shit. You can't trust it." "I use it all the time. It's fine as long as you verify the answers." So he puts it through chap GPT, looks puzzled at his phone for about 30 seconds and then reads something utterly unrelated. In the mean time, I've found the answer the longer-form way and am making a mental note to never pay him for anything on billable hours. Or indeed at all.

The last invitation to vote and then the thread can gracefully retire. Thanks if you have done.

France sounds fun.

Work up front, so to speak.

One bump for the week.

A mushroom from under the tomato jungle canopy. And some stuff on the bench that you can actually see. Did find a cucumber in said tomato jungle the other day too. There are squash plants in there as well.

I once drove to Birmingham and the guy didn't show. His client wasn't too impressed either. It mainly meant I had an extra day at the APF but I'm still going to kill him one day. Changed terms immediately.

I was in the shed earlier, having a miserable time looking for a chuck key (that turned up in the dining room obviously) but a lovely time blowing things clean. Got thinking what the highest priority tools in there are. I think setting up another I'd start with a bin, then a compressor, then a bench. It's that important.
-
Yep. Good rinse, hot, then blow out to hopefully get it as dry as possible as quickly as possible. Further drying on least hot bit of stovetop (radiator for you plebs with central heating). WD40 and blow out. Wipe off. I know there are better lubricants than WD40 but a biner doesn't need to be super well lubed. Plus you get the water displacement, which you want. I can't imagine life without an airline. I'm about to clean some saws and then the kitchen floor while I'm at it. Dig it out, treat yourself.
-
Of course. But where there isn't enough, the deal is happening on my terms or not happening. That's the approach eggs's contractor is taking. Or maybe he's just dodgy.
-
And for the opposition, what's the guarantee that when the bloke takes the time to come over he doesn't find that eggs has gone to the pub, changed his mind, got someone else in quicker etc and not said anything? People will muck you about like that. Fewer and fewer people are willing to do trade work. Tradesmen are in demand and in strong negotiating positions.

I do agree to a good extent. You wouldn't expect a chain to do seven months without being sharpened. But manufacturers should be pushing to be more and more idiot proof, lest they rest on their laurels instead.
