Turkey oak Huh! What is it good for? Absolutely Nothin! Say it again, say it again.

Phillip's Trees in Britain^ is tops. The other three in my top four are: <sounds of envelope being opened> Keith Rushforth, Easy Tree Guide Hamlyn Guide, Trees of Britain and Europe, Humphries, Press and Sutton - good 'glovebox' book. Collins Tree Guide, Johnson and More. (Treat y'self!) If anyone has a thing for conifers - in a way that other people might describe as obsessive but isn't really it's just taking an interest in the world around us - there's this Dalimore and Jackson - Handbook of Coniferae First Pub 1923, and A Manual of Coniferae by Veitch (of Bicton) Pub 1881 are worth looking out for in the old and interesting section. oh look EIGHT QUID!!! Blimey they're giving it away! Happy days Yourn.

According to the new chief exec of b&q "...the group could achieve "significant benefits" from unifying the group, noting that "customers needs are already largely the same" with the markets it serves "fundamentally more similar than different". So now you know!

There's no such thing as hornbeam; the hornbeam is a myth

For gods sake bin it; put the poor old bugger out of its misery and plant a nice blossomy thing* on the grass behind the railings. * or something epic like a welly, or cryptomaria or deciduous dawn redwood. <ping> I know HORNBEAM! plant a hornbeam just to show they're real and not made up** Happy Days Yourn **that's if they are real of course!

Cut it, chop it, fell it, mangle it up into a thousand tiny pieces and burn it with fire.

S'just an oak tee's way of settling down to a sensible middle age after the rash vigours of its teenage years.

I was six years old and no-one was badly hurt; why do you have to keep bringing this up? -
There is an awful lot of nonsense on the internet but this has to be one of the greatest piles of toss ever spouted. It's just people! Every time you demean someone worse off than yourself a very rich person laughs and says well done. Anyhow. Gotta go. L8rs Y

You know when you're out on a job and some old bloke comes along and says,"gor blimey mate what you want all that kit for you're not going up everest ha ha ha why don't you just climb up there properly and cut it off why don't you just cut the whole tree down its only a small one you cud just cut it through at the base if you were any good ooh can you just take a branch off my sycamore before you go you're not going to chip all that are you that's a waste that is you should cut it up for fire wood that would be more useful. Gor blimey missus (to customer) I hope you're not paying these blokes too much money they're a right bunch of clowns they wouldn't need half that kit if they knew what they were doing me an ted cud of done that for a cup of tea and a slice of cake". AND THEN WALKS AWAY. Well Nigel (pronounced not to rhyme with g'rarj nor even garidge but with anchor) is to politics what that old bloke is to you. Happy to help Yourn

Ha! Years back I picked up a lovely old clock - blue patterned enamal in a glass dome with whirly-gig escapement - which had been overwound so one night I got a mate to release the pawl/detent whilst I slowly released the key to slacken off the mainspring. Didn't quite go as planned. From experience, DON'T DRINK and MEND CLOCKS:lol: Happy days Yourn.
