  1. I’ll have a look later.
  2. Wordle 1,543 X/6 🟨⬜🟩⬜⬜ ⬜🟨🟩⬜⬜ ⬜⬜🟩🟩⬜ ⬜⬜🟩🟩⬜ ⬜⬜🟩🟩🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 Did not make a single error. Just bad luck.
  3. Self sown undoubtedly. Ugly and I understand you wanting it out. Heave is a bit of a contentious subject here, many thinking it’s not really much of an issue, and that staged removals are a bit of a scam. These don’t look like much in all honesty, I suppose you could take them down in 2 further stages (the first heavy cut already been done) Trees die quite naturally near houses without buildings rising out of the soil like zombies or collapsing. If you’re really worried get a structural engineer to make a report, but expect to pay. From the pics. I’d cut them down without a seconds thought.
  4. Put some photos up.
  5. Right @Oldfeller @StephenP @GarethM @Johnsond Thousands of posts between you. Put up an avatar. It doesnt have to give anything away. Just makes you seem more human
  6. Supertramp are a bit forgotten. They were one of the biggest bands in the world. Breakfast in America was a massive seller. Great band. Great songs. RIP.
  7. Wordle 1,542 4/6 ⬜🟨⬜⬜⬜ 🟨🟨⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 oooh Doug. Tough start to the week!
  8. I mean look at this screen shot of récent postings. Nary an avatar to be seen!
  9. Yeah, that was a good one.
  10. Yes, for you it’s the green D
  11. Of course you don’t have to, but it helps you to be remembered in a discussion. Half the people on here are called ‘tree this or that 2345’ so many names are similar, it’s difficult to know who is who. Put an avatar of your dog or whatever and it improves the experience, trust me. It’s a piece of piss, just press on your name on the top right and go to my profile.
  12. I know fencers who loved the bed length for posts and poles etc. Would I get one if they became available? Probably not as I have become used to the extra inside space. Be interesting if one of the big boys. Nissan, Ford, Toyota or Mitsubishi started producing one.
  13. I used a single cab hilux with greedy boards for a while. Until I could get a loan for a tranny tipper. A potato fork was the perfect tool to get the chip out. Can’t get single cabs anymore of course, not decent ones anyway’
  14. Wordle 1,541 5/6 ⬜🟨⬜🟨⬜ ⬜🟨🟨⬜⬜ ⬜🟨⬜🟨⬜ ⬜🟨🟨🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  15. I knew a bloke who worked for the council, they’d put all the old machinery and trucks into auction when they got replaced. There was a escort van that he wanted so he took out the front seats and filled the cylinders with engine oil. When people tried to start it, it was solid, even the fan etc was immovable. You just assumed it was seized up and practically worthless, the missing seats giving the air of something already being cannibalised for parts. So he went to the auction bought it for buttons, replaced the seats, removed the spark plugs and turned the engine over, removing the oil, hey presto! a few grands worth of van for next to nothing. Not saying that is what’s happened here, but it put me in mind of that story.
