  1. Shut up. The first things you’re supplying are knockoffs that you’ve claimed are which they aren’t. They’re knockoffs that will keep coming back for warranty work until you, the customer or probably both of you are pissed off and out of pocket. I’d have maybe understood if you were doing something to them, inspecting individually, replacing key components, tuning etc but you’re just adding a step to getting cheap shit from the internet. Change tack. The world needs quality, not more cheap shit.
  2. Yes. Basically that.
  3. Nothing to apologise for. Willows are the Rasputin of trees. Short of separating its molecules and salting the earth, you won’t kill it. Hack it any way you like. It’ll grow back. The Welshfred plan sounds good to me. Bit of space to stoop underneath. Can’t help you with the house proximity besides an utterly anecdotal looks fine to me.
  4. How do people define racism? Dictionary meaning? Which dictionary? From what year? You’re not bound by that definition unless you want to be. You could alter it or write your own. An elephant test? You can’t easily describe it but you know it when you see it. But what if other people see it (i.e. the world) differently? The reality is that nobody’s thought about it. They just let themselves get sifted into boxes of being “racist” or not, with no consideration of what it really entails. The media push people in all directions. It doesn’t matter which direction people allow themselves to be pushed as long as they get pushed into one position or other (and then keep buying the appropriate newspaper for that position). I sat down and thought about it a while ago. I decided that I think racism is when you think a group of people are unworthy of self ownership, like how animals are generally regarded as property, not moral agents etc. So you can dislike blacks or whoever but as long as you don’t think they shouldn’t be able to conduct their own lives as humans, you’re not a racist. You just don’t like black people.
  5. This is a mainly UK website.

    I just called him off a deer when he was already twenty yards committed. Buy a lottery ticket!

    Same. Mine must be broken though because it doesn’t work when he’s doing 20 miles an hour after a roe.
  8. Not a clue. I don't know much about the natural world.

    Sorry. Tracker. Tractive. Been very good. Gets used regularly… Pitpat was crap.

    Just a little screw together capsule I found or someone gave me. It's his colour and jangles in a recognisable way. I tell people I keep a couple of emergency bumps in it but the reality is I'm not cool enough to take drugs and he certainly doesn't need any upping.

  12. Is holly different, being evergreen? It can wait btw.
  13. I was wondering the other day how your bigger blocks were doing. Any significant failures?
  14. Now’s the time then. I reckon the frosts are over.
  15. For me it isn’t about saving costs. It’s about never having to talk to the water board ever again.
  16. Doesn’t have to be a hemispherical prism. Could be a geodesic dome for example. What it ****************ing won’t be though is a sweat lodge for womb bathing and breath work ceremonies. I like capitalism, meat and white culture.
  17. Let’s talk infrastructure. I’ve got this stuff and various things I could clad a hemispherical prism with: black/translucent plastic, scaffold netting, broken heras panels, other steel netting (including some very clean three foot tall chain link fence). Might even have some steel roof sheets or wrinkly tin. Have plenty of wood and other usual crap too. What to make? Some kind of wire walled pig ark looking thing? Static or skiddable? I’ve got about a fifth of an acre to site it in or drag it round. Goals and aspirations are principally swayed by fate and circumstance. Like if I found a bag of giraffe feed, I’d probably get a giraffe.
  18. That’s strong marketing talk.
  19. If only there was someone with some spare IBC flasks in the south of England. You could bury/stack a few and run the pump as often as you liked to build up stock.
  20. I suspect it does have a bottom but will google what you mean. I’m trying to buy a property with no mains connections so I’ll have to learn about it at some point anyway.
  21. Didn’t fancy spending a few days down there digging and having the wife haul up buckets of sloppy mud? You surprise me.

    Dog watches fly. He got one of his ears pierced yesterday. I was booting a bit of scaffold tube stuck in the ground to loosen it. He was wanting to assist with the extrication by clawing and gnawing at the surrounding sod. Anyway. His ear ended up on top of the tube right as my boot did. Loud squeak, some blood. Straight back at it. Doesn’t give a ****************.
  23. Enjoy this picture of a slightly gormless chicken as you compose your reply.
  24. Do you use water from your well, Mick?
  25. I was asking doobin but I welcome your contribution too.
