  1. Nah I was brought up proper. Kiss first , then tits, then you can get to vulva. Decorum dear boys, Decorum.
  2. Old ways are best, cheapest and most practical. A wealth of experience contained in one body. 😉
  3. Very easy to overstretch a non genuine circlip , beyond its "springiness". If I have to use them I try to wind them in rather than forcing them into a too tight circle, if that makes sense
  4. Why not take off what looks like another 5', to where the main bulk off the trees are? You'll still retain the screen effect and get rid of the horrid bare stems, and gives time for any underplanting to get going. You'll get new growth, though chaotically, and the screen will be undisturbed,
  5. .....however, you will have a wealth of experiences- both good and bad, a better understanding of how to deal with people you'd secretely like to just bludgeon to death, and the ability to say yeah I completed that shit of a day to my best ability. - Then there's the days when everything goes top class and gives the best buzz ever. Reward enough. 😉
  6. After getting all the kit for all situations, maintenance, repairs, f!#k ups, transport and insurances, you won't initially be getting rich working for yourself either.
  7. I'm sorry, but really disappointed. Thought you were a better man who could hold the hand up when required.
  8. Can't you back off the emojis? They're beginning to wear a bit thin now, and no longer proving anything and losing their significance, please.
  9. It got better.... wife returned back from shops with a couple of fine rib eyes for supper, so I saved half the morels, then dry fried with the steaks. Wow, what a tasty double protein punch of a meal. Unfortunately the morel season seems to be quite short. This is the second time I've found them growing out of woodchip. 😋😋
  10. Unfortunately he seems to half know what the right talk is for our industry. However he sure spends a lot of time trumpeting advice when the rest of you guys are out working, aiming to do the best job you can, to get away from the image long held , that we're a group of chancers.
  11. Oh feck it. Just noticed his earlier reply☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️
  12. For once something botty cough hasn't instantly voiced an opinion on . Well done.
  13. A nice bowl of cleaned Morel's ready to be dusted with seasoned flour and fried in butter. Can be gritty if not cleaned thoroughly, and slugs love hiding in them. But gorgeousand highly prized. Not telling anyone my source!
