  1. Remind me again, do they have a space program and nuclear weapons ?.
  2. There has not been a rise in sea levels, al gore was telling us decades ago that Manhattan would be underwater. It has not happened, same with his polar bears prediction. Yeah, changes driven by climate nutters and billionaires. I am pragmatic about the climate, but death cult extremists achieve almost as much as that perpetual truant.
  3. Maybe we should suggest to Nicola, to combat the supposed rise in sea levels. Why not use the hills to create a few more massive dams to hold back all the waters ?. Or we just dig a 30mile gorge one side of Hadrian's wall, we can level off the bumps in the lake District with the spoil and at the same time solve the sea level "problem".
  4. Why not just cut the ends off the spikes and plate it. Turns an old bucket into something useful as new buckets of that size aren't cheap
  5. Cmon, Jeff bezos went into space in a penis shaped rocket!.
  6. That would be a fun prime delivery via drone
  7. Woodsure did email something to the effect the other week saying, we've had lots of reports please speak to the local council.
  8. In the original post, he's in Scotland so it's fine. In England it's the 2m rule regardless.
  9. Farmers weekly quotes a fine of £300, which one would assume per sale. Granted I've never actually seen a fine issued under smoke control regulations either. Bit like dog fouling, think they issued 6 across my borough in one year.
  10. Eventually there will be a test case somewhere. The rules are in place, but it falls on the first case to see how it works in practice and if it's enforceable or the whole legality of the scheme thrown into doubt. In the end I chose the simpler solution to just join the scheme and jump through the hoops, until they become too complicated or high.
  11. I think we can probably assume the woodsure certification will be expanded or replicated in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Legally speaking enforcement is a local council issue, woodsure have said as much. Whilst I'm not a lawyer, it is a cash in hand arrangement, maybe advertise it not as firewood specifically. Eco log piles for "bugs", cut small to maximize bug numbers etc.
  12. England as far as I'm aware.
  13. Legally speaking you would be in trouble. But it would be council enforcement as apposed to woodsure.
  14. Well the lube does flow when you turn them on, wet but not dripping!.
  15. Buy whatever brand you feel happy with, as a lifelong Stihl guy I did feel like I was cheating on my none existent wife the other weekend. A mate asked me to clean and sharpen his little husqvarna, it wasn't a pro model but definitely felt like I needed a long bath and washing my mouth with soap.
  16. Well the insurance company does want off with its head, so you never know 😉
  17. I was listening to the radio the other day, the Irish government is actually advertising for construction workers!. I would laugh myself, if the hotel's put adverts in the windows saying no English, just as a nod to the 1960s.
  18. Avertissement de redirection WWW.GOOGLE.COM Doctors and teachers apparently
  19. Any connection to teleradio ?. As the advertising looks very reminiscent of the panther range literature in the early days. Regarding the claw marks, if your going to do that sort of thing. Either have it engraved/stamped possibly near the oiler entry hole, so it's away from damage and will be not easily scraped off.
  20. It's the usual lefty, we're all good, kind and accepting etc. Until they meet someone with either a neutral common sense or right wing view and it's all softly spoken you're an ....ist or cancelled. I really want to see how quickly Elon ruins their lefty echo chamber.
  21. And on top of also giving them a passport, education, housing, medical. They might even get 6k bonus for being held at a camp for entering the UK illegally.
  22. I wash 90% of my clothes at 60c. It'd probably be only fit for dolls houses 😉
  23. When you've got as little as me, the only money laundering I do is when I've left money in my pockets and it's been in the washing machine.
  24. That the barber shops were being run by Albanian gangs, as multiple new shops were opening in small villages where just 2/3 longer standing barbers were never 100% full booked.
  25. There was local rumours about the all those Turkish barber shops that popped up over the last few years. Not sure if it's money laundering, but I don't know how they would avoid taxes etc.
