  1. If we're open to non-tree things, Cutting Edge Engineering is a fairly watchable bloke in Australia mending digger and bulldozer bits.
  2. I forget whether we have a dedicated thread for who's good to watch on youtube. Feel free to remind me if we do. In the meantime, I recently watched a couple of videos from this bloke. Some good little takeaways and pleasingly real appraisals when he does stuff sub-optimally. And just a pleasant enough guy, which helps.
  3. I was most impressed by their 5 key principles.
  4. I don't believe for a second that you own a 26-year-old vehicle.
  5. Duck and rice gruel. Boiled a duck carcass (only missing breasts), picked the bones out, added rice. Also some onions in there that I couldn't be arsed to brown. You just keep adding water and recooking it until its gone. Hope to have it licked by boxing day. Main seasoning nutmeg but you could add whatever. Add a dash of double cream to the bowl. It's delicious but rich as hell. I'm having to force myself to eat two bowls a day before I allow myself any stilton. Anyone had gout before?
  6. Director of Discharge to Assess and Home First Transformation - Carlisle, Cumbria JOBS.THEGUARDIAN.COM Support the Chief Executive / DASS on the delivery of system wide strategic goals... This isn’t even a particularly bad one. I can nearly tell what the job is. Anybody capable of getting this kind of job should be shot. Nobody is simultaneously dim enough to not see the harm and clever enough to work the mouse to apply.
  7. Facebook, for some unknowable reason, pipes me jobs advertised by the Guardian. They are, without exception, utter bullshit. Transformative change facilitation etc. You have to liaise with stakeholders a lot. The jobs may seem primarily like harmless, disconnected bureaucratic nonsense to enrage the irascible, until one of the ten nurses that these dreg positions preclude could have been employed serving a loved one who has no real alternative. Then the evil suddenly seems more real.
  8. Maximus Ironthumper's last Project Kermit episode (youtube) included getting a bloody tight nut off the end of an engine. I'm aware it may only be peripherally relevant but he's very watchable anyway.
  9. Without resorting to the ideas of commies like Pigot and George, how does society fix this, given how bloody thick most people are?
  10. 290-310 was my actual guess if I’m not being a coward about it.
  11. Maybe less but I’ve been biased by everyone else’s guesses.
  12. I thought there might have been some constitutional importance to what you were talking about but I’m afraid that’s exactly the sort of soap opera shite I usually avoid. Let me know if HMRC shuts or I’m not really interested I’m afraid. Thanks anyway though.
  13. I googled it and regretted doing so pretty quickly. Couldn’t bear to wade through who was and wasn’t invited and who would be wearing who. Might I trouble you for the cliff notes?
  14. UKIP Weather used to be excellent. Sadly much trace of it has been expunged from the web.
  15. He knows the score. Personal transport is a massive liberator.
  16. I didn't want to tell you your own business.
  17. On a cheerful note, I've shot with a pair of South Africans a few times and they were quite convivial (if still fairly stoic). The bald blokes at Bisley. I bet someone on here knows who I'm talking about.

    ArbDogs? Pics!

    On the dog market, I had a look online earlier and the very obvious thing has very obviously happened. Loads of dogs at a fraction of the prices they've been for the last three years. People fed up with coming back from work to piss and destruction left by hastily bought and poorly maintained mutts.
  19. Middling. It might be OK to you. I had it confused with District 9 for ages, which is dreadful, so it's somehow tainted. edit: Same director as District 9 too.
