  1. Something thats been on my mind… That ad for Nationwide, where the rich banker takes a call from his spoilt little bitch of a daughter in Antibes asking for money to fly home.. Then the Romesh Ranganathan lookalike tells him it’s not a scam etc. The last ad in the séries showed her gloating about her mother (his ex wife) getting reamed out by her yoga teacher, basically calling her real dad (and his employer) breadheads, you know the one. Anyway, let the ungrateful bitch hitch home, or pick grapes to earn enough for a coach back across the Channel.
  2. I let my nephew take the MK1 back to the UK when he left, the junior uses the MK2, though he has recently started using a micro-pulley under a prussik, which he likes.
  3. Yes, is that the right terminology? You set yourself up in postion, then try to move a bit for whatever reason and the rope has trickled through the ZZ and you are locked in place.
  4. Hate the self-tending of the ZZ.
  5. If you are really interested in stopping the gubmint from controlling and monitoring your life then it’s not id cards you need to worry about, they de facto exist anyway, it’s cash. Use it whenever possible, make sure shops realise they need to keep taking it oryou will go to ones that do. Without cash they can track you and shut you down remotely at the press of a button for wrongthink.
  6. Yeah, well maybe you’re not real man.
  7. Up early, Igor has taken to early morning barking, so theres no point in both of us not sleeping. I did Wordle in three though…So theres that!
  8. Wordle 1,561 3/6 🟩⬜⬜⬜⬜ 🟩🟩⬜🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  9. Feelings running high this time. American crowds not covering themselves in glory, Rory getting a lot of stick. Hoping it goes to the wire.

    Mast

    Lots and lots of everything.
  11. Well, my easy day yesterday turned out to be a bit of a nightmare, hedge full of wire and god knows what. Got it done though, with no real machine damage. Easy lime repollard today, chance for the youngster to do what he likes best. Picking up sticks duties for me! Enjoy your friday!
  12. Wordle 1,560 4/6 ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ ⬛⬛⬛🟨⬛ ⬛⬛🟩⬛🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Considering the start, happy with that.
  13. ID cards are still needed in Germany.
  14. It is exactly the same.
  15. How are his accusations worse than Dave’s?
  16. I saw he called Gareth a ‘pedo apologist’ not a pedo. Bit like When Dave Johnson calls someone a ‘Muslim rape apologist’
  17. I cannot see any issue with ID cards.

    Spikes

    Do it yourself, but very lightly with a flat file, and don’t shorten them as it alters the angle of attack, rendering them useless.
  19. Mornin’ Stubs et al. Shrub and hedge removal plus grinding, nothing major. Weather cool but dry today, the job should be a breeze, but the the best laid plans…etc.
  20. Wordle 1,559 3/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟨🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  21. ‘Choose to pursue the poster with much venomous diatribe’ Sounds terrible!
  22. Oh give it a rest! You’re as bad as anyone.
  23. Wordle 1,558 4/6 🟨🟨⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟨🟨⬜⬜ ⬜⬜🟩🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
