  1. Ikr!? FWIW it was a great game played well by both sides. Italy came out of the second half guns blazing with the exception of one blatant red card they played a great game. England can go home with their heads held high.
  2. No, my tolerance for cretins has always been low. If anything I've got more patient over time, hence my reply to you.
  3. I figured I'd bid on it, but I haven't met the reserve price. Don't really see the point in that, if you've got a minimum figure in mind just start the auction at that?
  4. I laughed and shouted "that's for '96 you bitch" Is that bad?
  5. Why the name calling? He's not been rude, just voiced his opinion.
  6. Okay, perhaps I mistook what you said. As for the rest of it I couldn't agree more.
  7. Is that what I was doing? Just a surprising comment from you is all Dave. Its great that some people don't feel the need to talk about their mental health. Good for you. I don't tend to either. I do certainly appreciate that a lot of people are different to me, for whatever reason. Suggesting that talking doesn't really help for those people is a bit daft imo.
  8. Not me, I'd be calling up with anxiety every time I got sent to a hawthorne hedge reduction.
  9. Thanks for sharing Ian, that's really shit news for any couple, you have my sympathy. I struggled to tolerate her anxiety because I fundamentally didn't understand it. I'll admit at points I wasn't as supportive as I could have been. I still don't really understand it because it's something I've never experienced myself, and I think that goes for a lot of people. I was also quite ignorantly against medication thinking that it just masked the symptoms. Bit of an eye opener, and I do also think that terms like depression and anxiety are bandied around a bit. It's a tricky line.
  10. There's always that one person dragging a thread down...
  11. I used to think about it like that. Recently my partner had a bit of a rough time with anxiety after she was a bit physically unwell. She ended up catatonic convinced she was dying, wouldn't even hold our one year old daughter. Was a pretty horrible time for her and everyone involved really. She was prescribed some anti anxiety medication which pretty quickly got her thinking rationally again. Turns out the physical condition that had her all worked up was bought on by anxiety anyway. In hindsight my previous attitude to anxiety and depression was quite ignorant.
  12. How much is it Ian? I think it's a great idea. We've all been affected by mental health somewhere or other, whether it's personally or someone you might know.
  13. He must've gone "full influencer" to think that anyone gives a toss on his opinions outside of picking bits of tree up with a crane and putting them through his nice big chipper
  14. Try and sound less rapey next time you say something like that.
  15. Don't get me wrong, you'd need a crowbar to peel me off some of them. Boel is quite safe in that regard mind. If you like John Lloyd, follow Arborestry. Lad called Tom Organ who used to occasionally post here.
  16. Almost as annoying as the "doesn't matter if my kit hasn't seen a speck of sawdust as long as I can squeeze my tits into a tight t shirt" bunch
  17. All that American "hoo-ra" stuff can jog on
  18. I'm a freelance climber based in Rugby. Tell me a bit more about your business?
  19. Can't stand them. Not comfy in the ground or on spikes. The soles came away after 2 months so the boots were replaced under warranty. Might just be me though. Boots are a gamble, you can't tell wether they'll suit you until you've done a week or twos worth of graft, then you're stuck with them
  20. Smug bastard. I bet his mrs is smoking hot too... @DrewB?
