    JFC @monkeybusiness show some decorum! You press the ‘share’ button and copy and paste it, then we can see you did it in three without seeing the answer. Caught sight it, so todays Wordle ruined.

    The Town centres and high streets need to be repurposed as residential. High streets are finished as retail centres. Dunno what to do about the homeless, I suspect there’s no magic bullet. Every case is different. A mixture of mental health, drugs and alcohol and economic reasons. There are solutions of course, but are we brave enough…?

    It seems as if it was an accident, if the Iranians thought Israel were involved they’d say.

    Been a fair bit of chatter about those B&S engines, not much of it good.

    Looks like Iran’s President died in a helicopter crash. Dunno if it was an accident.

    My Mother-in-law failed for the first time ever today. Crazy how many people this has beaten.

    Yes, had to go back and check that. Surely pop will rot and crumble away in 2/3 years?

    Difficult, but doable.

    There’s no need, but there’s interest, at least from Dan and me. Why do you think he specified that?

    Thanks John, kind offer, the job I’ve got it lined up for is a bit urgent, leaning 40/50 acacia (spindly, nothing major) over some outbuildings. So I was hoping to rattle it out before then. Bank holiday here Monday, so I’ll shut my work brain off, open a bottle, and approach the problem Monday morning.

    Impressive!

    Timings is the thing. it’s bank holiday here Monday, so I’ll get onto it. How long did it take them?
  15. Mick Dempsey
    Ok, let me give them a go.

    This is a long shot, but if you don’t ask you don’t get.. I am first dibs to buy a used hydraulic winch for my Avant. Now I have a mate coming over on the ferry Friday morning for a visit next weekend, he’s happy to bring it over but I have to get it to Barns Green by Thursday afternoon. Its with a guy in Rugby Warwickshire about à 5 hour round trip. Courrier/transport companies présent issues because of unloading and timings. I thought maybe someone (either near the winch in Warwickshire, or near my mate in Billingshurst) with a pick up or van has a day free early next week for a jolly. I reckon £250 should cover it. Hit me up as the kids say.

    Wordle 1,064 3/6 ⬜🟩🟩⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Recovered my mojo. Lucky first line admittedly. @Doug Tait that second line is a crime almost worthy of the walk of shame!

    Surveying is just walking along a railway embankment avoiding stepping on dirty nappies looking at sycamores. Tree officers must have committed some horrible crime in an earlier life to have to deal with that paperwork and listen to the entitled moaning lying public all day. Consultancy is just spending ages writing up reports and speculation on various scenarios about something that may or may not happen, clients will ignore you anyway.

    AHPP is very ambiguous about the whole robot thing since Skynet sent a robot back in time to kill his mother. Then 11 years later they sent another better one back in time to kill him, ironically the first robot gets sent back as well by future humans to protect him. All this happened in LA (where you live) So, you know, he’s a bit…touchy.

    My brother recently came down from Yorkshire to the home counties to buy a Mercedes estate, his last decent car, not cheap, second hand. Anyway, auto gearbox failed on way home, had to get it towed to nearest garage etc. The selling garage just gave him his money back, so he went and bought another, which is fine. The moral? I dunno, maybe choose where you buy carefully, check warranties. Glad it worked out Pete.
