    Huge chestnut

    SteveA replied to Graham's topic in Picture Forum

    Wow, what a magnificent beast. Looks like a petrified octopus.

    Thinking of planting some sweet chestnut in our coppice with standards (South West Wales).

    Beautiful clear sunny day here in pembrokeshire. Almost warm enough to get the stringed vest out.

    Or maybe it's not really a chainsaw! Maybe it's transmission technology, for aliens, who currently frequent planet earth to source a new idea for a reality TV show. They ran out of reality TV ideas on their planet 'Ignoranus' in 2003, so they've come here for more ideas..... (Wish they'd take Simon Cowell back with them). Jesus, i should stop visiting conspiracy theory websites!

    Hi Dave, this is where i got mine, here ya go Ripeur 2 Leather puncture resistant glove :: Safety Hut : World class personal protective equipment for industry Not many companies seem to be stocking them, so let us know if you find any cheaper. Don't be put off by the price - they work brilliantly, apparently even better than welding gloves, and long lasting. To find out a bit more, search "Best gloves for Hawthorne" on the forum cheers, steve

    I had a deletion & won a few Arbtalk points for swearing (with *stars) on this thread. Better be careful now!.... Owen Paterson isn't doing a very good job and has made a few boo-boos, in my opinion, but maybe things will get better. Peace & love to all men, women & children. With very best wishes, steve. *mwah*

    Re: Beyond controlling cows (of which we have none) - are there any other benefits? It hinders but doesn't tend to actually keep people out altogether, so I'm not seeing that as a benefit, especially when compared with good hedging. And it works both ways... barbed fencing hinders our own access to do jobs.

    From reading the posts, generally, it appears barbed wire has a use for keeping cows contained, especially where the top line is electric. Beyond controlling cows (of which we have none) - are there any other benefits?
  21. SteveA
    Hey chaps, interesting stuff... but this thread is titled "Barbed Wire. Why?"
  22. SteveA
    We've decided to go barbed wire free - should only take us 15 years to remove the damned stuff. We've started building a dead hedge in the meadow (which we intend to gradually merge/ turn into an edible hedge over the next 5 years). It should be a great tool for encouraging birds to venture out of the woodland, backwards & forwards, and dropping their phosphates over the horticultural area. This kind of thing doesn't seem to happen with barbed wire.

    If it's got a nice chunky looking trunk I would remove the Ivy and then make a next decision. (Make sure you've got a pair of Ripeur 2 gloves handy!)
  24. SteveA
    Looks like a top job you've done there. Especially liking the overhang/ balustrade. Bet they love it p.s.... has it got a mezzanine inside?
  25. SteveA
    Well done Mrs Steve
