Some are gonna have more water than they bargained for soon enough.... Watching something the other eve which described something like a 6' sea level rise pretty much wiping out Miami waterfront millionaires row. Prob be similar down the Sand Banks.

It's so obvious a blind man could see it 🤨

Groundie/climber current rates?

First class post. For Rhyanna - you’re quite right with opinion / asshole reflection. As I have to remind the Mrs, if I wanted her to have an opinion, I’d tell her what it needs to be.... 🤣 -
I well remember the 'lagging teams' in the old steam boiler ships... My TKD instructor is a proper Plymuff bey and an ex-yardy from the scaffolding gang back in the day. He was actually at a funeral yesterday, he's been to quite a few recently - lots of them ex-yardies. 😟

When were you in the yard?

What a disappointment! Seeing the words "Acer" Brilliant" and "Advice" all in one topic heading I was expecting to see some of Acer Ventura's words of wisdom.... 🤨

You are well 'ard mate 🤣

That's a more moderate and agreeable line of argument you rowdy bastard

'kinell Al, you've really got a wasp up your ass on this one 🤣

I'd never simply accept or suggest that 'experience' is always good experience - it could just as easily be bad, but in answer to the question what's the difference, I would perhaps present 'maturity' as a differentiating factor between an old coffin dodger and a young spunker. I'd offer the long standing vehicle insurance rates (18yo in comparison to 38yo) as justification and validation of my point....

You move in more elevated circles than me then!

'kinell Les, is that an incredibly woke use of the possessive pronoun in relation to a gender fluid yoof of today which would conflict with the more robust persona I may have attributed to you? Or is it just a typo? 😳🤣

Reading various sources (Mynors 13.4.2, p336 and CWA s28E & P) whilst it is clearly apparent that an offence is committed if a landowner carries out work in a SSSI without prior notification consent of NE (where that work is contrary to the previously notified features of the SSSI) does it become a joint offence where the person undertaking the work (if that person is different to the landowner) also commits the offence (like CA/TPO offences) or does liability rest solely with the landowner? Notes: (i) Not associated with any current or previous 'actual' circumstance - just a matter of curiosity which has arisen from another source (ii) In England (iii) Whilst (most) arb's are well tuned into CA/TPO/FL requirements, SSSI may be less well understood - so might be of interest

National Trust Donation (Tree Planting)
kevinjohnsonmbe replied to Chipperclown's topic in General chat
I spent out (a silly amount) on a culinary dehumidifier this year to avoid waste of excess apple / pear / fig / chilli etc. Made no 'economic' sense since you could buy a bag of dried apple rings for pence really, but it was never about the financial sense but rather just trying a new way to preserve excess fruit crop. Little 'un loves 'em so was worth it in my warped financial justification. Got some beauties on the Cox's Orange Pippin - biggest I've ever seen! Bit nervous about how long to leave them on the tree. Probably pick today before they fall. -
Is that something you can expand upon in public domain Pete? Just out of interest. 👍🏻

Go GreenMech all the way! There must be a means of getting one?

MADE TO EAT HIS OWN WORDS (MUST SEE)
kevinjohnsonmbe replied to topchippyles's topic in General chat
I'd suggest the "must see" tag gets a bit of a walloping where it doesn't really live up to expectation. Come on Les, I'm obviously gonna have a look if you play the "must see" card, but I'm afraid it didn't make it to the press play stage.... Inappropriate use of the "must see" tag there mate.... -
You can FRO! I’m not getting sucked into this bun fight.

It was more a reflection upon that which ‘we’ are expected to ‘tolerate’ from the legislature, regardless of the apparent inequity and buffoonery, rather than a direct comparison of the potential emissions from each exampled equipment type Andy, which I have no doubt you fully grasped. However, gunpowder emissions may well skyrocket when it becomes apparent that the Ryobi battery saw won’t be sufficient to fell the 100 year old yard tree and your average Californian reaches for the gun cabinet.....

Gotta love America.... Is there any other country in the world that would let you buy firearms with what can only be described as cursory checks and balances - but would legislate to prevent you buying a petrol lawn mower.... https://electrek.co/2021/10/11/california-bans-gas-powered-lawn-equipment-and-other-small-off-road-engines/ 🤯

Draws into question the ‘wisdom’ of TPOing a large tree in a small garden or the planning process that preceded house build....
