Petition to get Nigel Farage onto the EU Referendum Debate
born2trot replied to Brian S's topic in General chat
Couldn't agree more . .. Thought he could just waltz in and bully , manipulate people with his suited bespectacled cronies , puppets . The dunes at Menie are a true gem , I've never seen anything like them , and because he wants to look after his psuedo billionaire golfer bum chums he thinks he can destroy this forever and families that have made their home there . My god there's enough bloody golf courses along the coast anyway -
Fungi and honey bee health....

Fantastic story and at last some hope for our bee colonies . Just hope they get the funding required to continue this vital research , the results seem to speak for itself . Super !!! -

I liked his idea of guaranteeing ex soldiers with 12 years experience or more a job as a policeman or prison guard -
No this is the way to do it as you describe . The limbs are tough and strong just make sure that the limb you anchor round is not dead . As you get higher it should be much easier to get your mainline round behind the stem , give yourself plenty slack and climb a metre or so above your anchor if you can . Shouldn't take you that long really .

This actually happened to my mate , the tear away saved his ass big style , ironically he never uses cambium savers either ... Rather be lucky than good

Remember well my old grannie gettin into a boiling rage every Saturday afternoon Think Giant Haystacks is in like the top 5 all time biggest wrestlers , the guy was humungus . If people looked behind the scenes at professional wrestling far and away more serious and extreme injuries involved than Olympic ( freestyle ) wrestling albeit I can't watch pro wrestling . If you want to see extreme human power just youtube Brock lesnars top 10 moments .

Have to agree with easy lift on the wrestling comment . It's now classed as ' sports entertainment ' anyway now . . so there is no pretense . Brock Lesnar IMO was the greatest athlete the world has ever seen , a 300lb freak show . I was reading the other day about the ' Alaskan Bush People' , apparently 100 % bs , this was from their neighbours in the village they live which is in a normal house , shop at the grocery store etc . The TV company rent a piece of ground nearby and off they go couple times a week to film ..

Only need the back cut higher to create the hinge on a 45 degree gob cause this coincides with maximum bending moment of the falling stem I believe . 70 degree gob when topping don't need the higher hinge as I understand . Nothing new in slightly downward back cut either , watched a guy chog down an extremely tall pine on YouTube using this method and certainly looked a talented arborist to me . PS I've never put my backcut below ..

Like Steve i also hate football with a passion , not so much the game itself but the people involved with it .. Claudio Ranieri seems to buck the trend for me , no foul mouth bs and very dignified and humble person , well that's certainly how he comes across . Never won a major league with any club which truelly does make it a fairytale ...

In Ukraine where it's extensively harvested they don't drill it . just a piece of angle stainless or alloy hammered in to the tree with filtered bottle below . Normal to add sugar and perhaps lemonjuice , drunk quickly as doesn't keep well , absolutely invigorating drink cold
