  1. Neigbour has being mulch mowing 5 acres of paddocks (least twice a week at this time of yr) for decades with a tractor - its like a golf course green. Hes decided to let the next door farmer use it for hay this year. Think some people must enjoy mowing alot.
  2. Just had a swarm of honey bees airbourne in the garden. Pretty impressive sight never seen anything like it before Seemed about a 30m2 area of dense flying very noisy bees didn't fancy walking right into the middle denser parts of it. Now they all have buzzed off somewhere
  3. No idea nice patterns though Tree looks half dead
  4. Whitebeam
  5. Yeah that can happen theres knack to it not happening - using the dawgs and blipping the throttle in a certain way etc. Ive found it only normally sometimes an issue with smaller diameter logs under 4inch. A narrow kerf chain and rakers not to agressive makes a less grabby chain & makes a big difference. Or just stick a bigger log on top of all the smaller ones.
  6. Don't think you'll get much for that .
  7. White flys exoskeletons i reckon
  8. That Timbercroc looks cool but I find the traditional type better to use as chucking a single or normally multiple logs on top is for me alot faster than being limited to clamping each log one at a time. Or if lots of wood and it doesn't need to be mobile just stick two rows of posts in the ground or make some frame like this: Oregon do a smaller mobile version of this design that looks ok ....though not keen on it being metal
  9. Bit far north for chesnut coppice poles unless you can go pick some up or find someone local that stocks it. Could try theese guys looks like the have chesnut poles? Handmade wooden fencing in Yorkshire | Woodland Craft Fencing | Yorkshire Hurdles WWW.YORKSHIREHURDLES.COM Our bespoke fencing is hand made to order using sustainable English woodland materials. We use a variety of woods... Another option would be larch cladding maybe
  10. I dont like the above design at all having tried one. I made a simple folding wooden one from USA type pallets: Which is loads better, its a bit like this one below Ditch the thing in pic would be my advice and get or make a decent one instead. AI bot?
  11. Mog the thick persons idea of a clever person, the torys attempt at gerrymandering seems like it backfired which he admits in this article: 🙂 Local elections 2023: Voter ID backfired on Tories, says Rees-Mogg WWW.BBC.CO.UK The ex-minister suggests his party brought in the controversial measure to boost their election chances.

  12. How about a polytunnel. Not sure how the price compares to marquees but northern polytunnel are good they do a whole range of different covers
  13. Googled what merle ment as thought he was a singer. Thats alot extra for a spotty dog.

  15. Sure its not melted plastic foam etc?
  16. Cows/sheep sheltering might of caused gradual erosion over 100's of yrs?
  17. Huskys inline motor fits beween the support bits on a saw horse better than the stihl.
  18. Mis-Teeq were ok. Ok not my taste but better than most pop dross- liked her rapping
  19. Think i recall seeing it somewhere with crosshatchs carved on the top & others covered in chicken wire to make it less slippy
  20. I agree not ideal
  21. Id prefer less run time but decent power to weight but as batteries are alot less energy dense versus petrol its not the easy esp with the larger battery saws For 1 hr run time you'll probably need to use one of thoose ghostbuster style battery backpacks with the more powerful saws, or go for a lower powered saw with largest possible battery fitted. Theres no free lunch.
  22. Sweet chesnut poles would be ideal i reckon If you live near a SC coppice place would be handy.
  23. I like bay holm oak holly and yew Dont like the ubiquitous cherry laurel it looks ugly imo. No to leylandi
