My dreams are slightly more sexual !!

Aaahhh. Thanks

..What, did he lower the limbs down on the long extension lead he was plugged into?

Burrs is tricksy, devious things. Never know what ya going to get until ya start taking cuts into it. Could be rot, could be fifty yr old birds nests encased in wild bark or could be the most incredible grained slabs or bowl blanks ever seen. Take the outer layers off crudely with chain saw and make a decision once you see how the grain looks whether to sell it as a lump or process yourself. At the moment it's like trying to guess the contents of a sealed dustbin bag

Feel for you there mate, black cats always shine so much, and oh that smell and warmth when they've been lying out in the sun - you just have to plunge your face deep into their fur. Dogs just stink!

I'm with you completely there Stubby, though 11yrs your junior. Wishing it wasn't the way of the world, and things would be so much better if we could all look someone in the eye before letting out a complete train of thought that should never have been said. Still, an essential skill and tool for modern business. Thank God I'm not self employed anymore and needing to put myself out there!

I realise this is all drifting away from the original branch logger topic, but my two pennies wort, I use char from rinsing out the whisky casks at work as biochar on my own smallholding. It act not as a fertiliser but more a soil improver, very much like lime does. As quite rightly said earlier, it has no nutritional value on its own. The carbon remains locked into it for exceptionally long periods, as seen on archaeological digs. Instead the fertilising components, naturally and applied, are able to chemically bond onto the char, and slowly leach out rather than be washed either away or down through the soil profile and so remain close to the surface, available for root uptake. Another benefit to me personally, is the grains dont break down in size and so assist drainage on a peaty loam mountain soil, which otherwise waterlogs at the merest sniff of rain.

I think that's the point of them, cheap and disposable, a bit like razors. Use them till they don't do the job anymore, then get another one.

Save the money, buy her a set of wellies, or a plank laid out to where she parks her car.🤪

It strikes me that the well in that rim is very deep so most short valved inner tubes are going to want to pull inwards. Perhaps a brass valve extender as ysed on some dual tyre setups may help?

Dear God, I've lost the will to live any longer. Is there nothing that happens 'in the news today' that you guys can't turn into a tedious diatribe of competitive drivel, that suddenly loses all the interest the original topic ever had. FFS there's a whole world of interest out there but you just keep bringin it back to ME, ME,ME. I'm sick of reading this spittle dripping off your chins, hoping there might be a modicum of either wit or good comment about to be revealed.🥱

I've tried that and absolutely no result at all ☹️

The simplest ever, but funny... oh yes, the best. Thanks

Jeezus, looks like the making of a great chilli con carné. Prob give me the shits for 2 weeks
