Ok guys, watching Katy Perry and the other girls spin out into space , for 11mins of girl bliss in zero G. But did anyone else think their rocket actually represented a giant dildo? Or perhaps I need to go to specsavers to have my imagination cleaned out. Kudos though that the booster rocket returns to be reused. As it came back separately from the girls, guess it couldn't take the constant chatter and singing any longer, and left them and their parachutes to bring them back somewhere else completely different

Okay guys , thanks to the power of arbtalk I can now identify the the birds around me by song. Always wanted to be able to do that, now you've introduced me to merlin. Great stuff thanks.

Well i I got that wrong then, - haven't even heard of stone island, and perhaps better off for it.

Took me ages to realise I should have been looking at the target not the hound

Spot the oldies growing up with top of the pops in the 1980s. It was a truly shite song, but of it's time. Thank god it stayed there!!

Yep , in agreement on chainsaw wellies - Satan's footwear !! But a good set of not bargain basement wellies for general use is money well spent. The cheapest from farm supplies are cold, uncomfortable and will with regular use only last six months. Go up a level of expenditure and you'll be rewarded

And prepare for the inevitable flying small kickback log in the shins or the knackers. After the first ten hits the pain goes away....then the anger begins

Well well well, can't even gain the intelligence and eyesight to read my profile. I'm not swinging from trees, having seen the light, I drink whiskey for a living. Stumpings for guys whose knuckles scrape the pavement, so take my banana and shove it right up ya hole. 😛😛😛

Oooh looking forward to seeing what direction this goes in. Nothing like the direct challenge to get fingers clicking on keypads 🤪

It disturbs me, that so often , now and in his previous administration, knee jerk reactions happen instantly. Normally in governance, actions like this are mulled over, debated, stored away, lost then refound before being actioned in a more sedate (and balanced) form. This is the sort of action you'd expect from his buddy Kim Jong Un in N Korea

If you trawl through his other posts you'll spot a common ling

Yep similar experience with me, same timescale. Dad was so delighted to "get" the massive elm on the farm where I worked weekends. Took forever to do gobs and backcuts, as even without all the staples and nails at 2-4' above ground, the wood just ate any edge on the sawchain. Once on the ground the real ordeal began. Axes and mauls just bounced, rows of steel blacksmith made wedges were the only way to break the rings - dad f@cked off to the pub in frustration (and habit!) leaving me at it to get the next pickup load split. Obviously disappointed on his return. After several days of this horror we abandoned the tree and it was finally pushed into a bog hole, where it probably still remains, unchanged. Split it green is the only manual way to tame elm

All manner of scenes of ladies night at some sketchy east country bar, where only young, stupid and brave guys dare to open the door spring into my mind here. Long extension and a driver bit you're prepared to lose, finish the scene (and the night) here 🤪

Hey Peds, all ok with you guys up on the west coast? Down here in West Cork we seem to have escaped relatively lightly. No power for about 35000 residents in county cork, we're on generator supply at moment. Local radio reporting very few trees down or structural damage. It seems that though very violent this morning, the main core of the storm went further north up towards you. It's a gorgeous morning now behind it, still occasionally breezy but bright sunshine. To all dealing with windblow, look before you cut. Take care

As an aside to this, another local resident was gifted the piece of land including the structures I talked of earlier (there's actuaully about six other small sluices to go to differing fields plus the one major one). He reinstated the drop boards for personal pleasure of being able to play with the water levels. This hadn't been done for 70+ years. Suddenly thames water needed him to record water flows, heights, volumes etc when without the boards they'd had no interest whatsoever, and now he couldn't even permanently remove the boards again as this would constitute an unauthorised and uncontrolled flow!
