I don't know of any brushcutter that would do it. A garden shredder maybe and it would have to be a reasonable quality one.

Must be some apple tree if its roots are causing issues on the other side of their extension. Apple trees in my experience do not have big root systems and I've never seen any significantly sized roots extend beyond the dripline. I can't offer any professional advice further to what has been written but my expertise is apple trees rather than the law. If I was in that situation it sounds like the tree would have to go but there would be a brick through each of their windows.

It might but you wouldn't want to leave a diagonal cut.

The bigger stuff cuts a lot easier if you can push the branch away from the blade as you cut. Makes quite a difference and can mean the difference between cutting or not.

I got the two blade version earlier this year, very impressed with it. Does seem to act as a flywheel and slows both revving up and slowing down, never was sure on if that was doing the machine any good or not.

Shoot or knock them on the head are the only legal options.

Cage trap. Much more effective than an air rifle. As for air rifles, I would always favour a .22 over .177 for hunting/live quarry just because it delivers more killing power imo. I don't think any difference in accuracy (if there is one) would ever be noticed, it is an endless argument though. If on a budget buy second hand, a lot of people buy a gun and then realise they have nowhere to shoot it and it's not for them so sell off a practically unused gun. If it were me I would be looking at Air Arms as well, Weight of the gun is a big thing so go as light as you can find unless you are just shooting out of the living room window like I do and so don't carry it. TX200 HC .22 is my current air rifle, weighs too much but can drop rabbits and crows at over 50 yards which is incredible for an air rifle. It will put 5 pellets in the same hole at 15 yards too if I do my bit. edyt: Gareth beat me to it but pretty much said the same thing.

Son has a heavily modded L200, suspension lift. winch bumper, bull bar,side rails, aftermarket wheels, rear tray etc. Insured with NFU and whenever he declares his latest mod they accept it as non performance enhancing so no increase in premiums.

Looks like they do some pretty cool stuff.

I wasn't meant to be doing anything in particular, I was just pottering about. I think I then went off to dig a few potatoes for tea but ended up mending a fork with a broken handle.

I still think it classes as pottering, I stopped for a brew and decided a kip on the sofa for 2 hours between doing the inside and the outside. Racing around and getting it done in 5 minutes would disqualify it as pottering. I don't think much of my life actually goes beyond pottering tbh.

Cut the garden hedge. With the tractor.

There's another pic in the same place of a more modern tractor (Massey Ferguson) doing the same but damned if I can find it. edit: found it My step gran had a small place on Trencrom, she used to go down to Hayle with the pony and cart for seaweed for fertiliser.

It is typical symptoms of phytophthora and not restricted to Lawsons, it isn't typical of poisoning where they usually all get sick at once.

Yeah goldfinch are ok at that, it's the tits that don't age so well

Nothing on my feeders recently, I think the sparrowhawk has scared them off. Did see a bluetit the ther day for the first time in weeks. Out and about today I saw a charm of goldfinch, must have been 50+.

Yep, just change your name to Clarence and off you go.

It is a new ish rule they have invented, it's not even a rule really but many constabularies will not renew without doctors letter. My old surgery wanted £120 for the letter, new surgery does it for £40. Anything over £60 is a pisstake imo and you can go online and do it through Medicert for £60 ish. I don't shoot much at all these days but very reluctant to give up my guns yet, my non ticket air rifle is probably sufficient for my purposes.

You do need to experiment because your 2000W inverter is probably 2000 peak rather than constant and your pump may well peak higher than that at startup. In theory it should be 1100W when running so the theory says it will be ok. Please bear in mind I am more of an enthusiastic amateur rather than a pro sparky.

A 200 amp 12v lithium battery should power your pump for one hour ish, you would need a 2000W inverter to do it. I would think your ibc would be empty in much less than 1 hour unless your hose size and length restricts the flow a lot. You can charge the battery pretty quick with a suitable charge controller if your alternator is up to it.

Prees Heath, not Press Heath

Mended the cast gutter on my shed that I broke the day after I last mended it (2 years ago)

I don't know that they are better overall but they are easier to apply, more choice of colours if that matters to you and they stick really well. Very durable too.

I would choose from Skip paint, Bedec barn paint or floor paint in that order. Any of them would do a great job.

Don't mention it.
