  1. I have to agree with everyone on this forum because they all have a valid point of view. When I was in the Navy my step-father voted (Conservative) by proxy for me which when I left the Navy changed to Labour for me and I've since changed my mind again by not voting at all this last election. So maybe read Nick Davies, 'Flat Earth News' about all the made-up news in all our Newspapers. And maybe try 'Hedgemony or Survival' Noam Chomsky about the Western governments manufacturing consent for our foreign wars by scaring people into believing we are so much under attack by terrorists that we need to go to war(just what the terrorists want)! Or: 'O lord grant me the courage to change the things that I can change, grant me the grace to accept the things I can't change and grant me the wisdom to tell the two apart'. Everybody has a vested interest in Money/power which is after all what politics is all about control in the oil in the middle-east. Now I'm off out into our lovely(Cornish) countryside for a walk and to enjoy some rare summer sunshine.
  2. Hi guys, who can tell me if it is possible to top pine trees - that is, will they recover? Or do i need to suggest a full dismantle? A customer wants a quote for reducing a 40 foot high lleylandi hedge by 10 feet that includes 6 x pine trees. I Have sided pines up before but never topped.
  3. Yeh it's those precious moments that makes all the hard work of raising them worthwhile!
  4. I got halfway through the day and the wife says 'so what are you doing this afternoon?' And I reply: 'Well as it's Father's Day I'll be taking it easy for once!' 'Oh, I'd forgotten.' All was quiet while I put my feet up in the garden and read the paper. About an hour later two beautiful hand-made Father's Day cards appeared in my lap and then I was led to the front door step and shown, 'Happy Father's Day - to the best Dad in the world'! from my two lovely girls- wow!
