  1. Never heard of a German pine. That big tree is a cedar, and it’s ridiculous, needs to come out.
  2. Wordle 1,255 3/6 ⬜⬜🟨⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Been a bit slack lately, but this cheered me up.
  3. If only you followed your own advice in the US election.
  4. Yes, usually by means of an election. You cannot just throw out an elected government just because some arse obsessed numpty and a few million Russian bots press a button on their phone.
  5. Not obsess about anal sex for a start, which seems to be tricky for you. What would I do? For the moment, nothing, a democratically elected government has a mandate for change, much like in the US.
  6. Cos it was thriving under the previous bunch right?
  7. Who’s getting shafted? The farmers? Bollocks to them. Plenty of folks to take over if they want out.
  8. There’s a difference between calling an early GE and calling one a few months after winning a stonking majority.
  9. The Conservatives don’t want a general election, they’ve just elected a new leader and have barely started organising themselves into forming an opposition. Just say, in the magic fairy world that is the inside of some people’s heads, there was another election, you know Labour would win again? What would you do then?
  10. They won a massive majority, like it or not they have a mandate to govern. Don’t like it? cope and seethe.
  11. That’s a poor option, neither will do well or look good. Back the truck up a bit, what’s the issue with them?
  12. Yeah, 300amp for the ground saw and I already have the lighter ones for the topper. €2.5k all in. Though I don’t like to talk money, rather vulgar you know.
  13. What a bizarre thing! Is that for climbers on the West coast of Canada, who need to fill up mid tree?
  14. Ooh, look at me! We’re going battery power, or dipping our toes. The new 542i has a clutch which swung it for me. So I got the back handle as a light weight ground/chipper saw. The topper is not light mind, but poky enough. With the helmet coms it should make for better work site. Got a protos as well, so maybe we’ll talk about our feelings regularly!
  15. Job recently where the loader broke down and I had to come off and get it fixed. By the time I got back to it a week or so later I was counting on getting it finished by lunchtime and onto another to make the day financially respectable. Got it all done, but client wasn’t happy about certain aspects, and tbh he had a point. I blagged it face to face and got the money. I could have done better, it wouldn’t have taken a lot to have made the whole transaction more agreeable, but I was chasing the money and an early cup of tea in my armchair. Sometimes you have to admit that to yourself.
  16. Sounds messy, lot of it about at the moment. Keep the fire hot and stay inside Stubs.
  17. I’m starting to think I’m being mugged off here.
