  1. Varies according to sources, 30 to 40. Halcyon days eh?
  2. What do you think the average life span of the hunter gatherer was?
  3. I don’t understand what you mean, can you be clearer?
  4. I’m suggesting the OP puts up some pics of the offending trees/hedges or a cynical person might think they’re a time waster.
  5. The OP gets a lot of issues with his neighbours, holm oak, laurel hedge, now the Portuguese laurel. We never get a pic of the situation.
  6. I contacted the council, but they weren’t interested. I’m fairly sure the entire council are involved in the live-streaming so are on his side. Don’t want to post a picture as it may give an idea of where I live, but for an idea here’s my house (can’t see the tree from here)
  7. Hi guys, new poster here, hope you can help. We have a tree in our garden that our neighbour (who is a bastard that feeds kittens to his python) has issues with, it’s a 6ft diameter poplar right next to his house. It was planted by our grandma and our recently departed sainted mother used to cry underneath it and say how much she loved it Anyway, our neighbour (who has sex with chickens in his garden whilst shouting out our children’s names) has asked us to cut it down as part of his house has apparently collapsed and the so called experts say it is due to the tree. We had a qualified tree surgeon round who said we should cut it down, but we love nature and stuff as long as it annoys our neighbour (who livestreams satanic rituals every second Tuesday) Can anyone help?
  8. The spoon whittlers will be ejaculating in their hemp underpants!
  9. @Stephen Blair was this the first job with the rotator on the avant? Thoughts compared to the fixed grab?
  10. I'm Actually Learning - GIPHY Clips GIPHY.COM South Park, Season 11, Episode 6, D-Yikes Clips
  11. Why let it run if it’s not too heavy? Hold it firm till it stops swinging then lower it with no drama.
  12. The Americans have a word for that (holding a pice of rigging without running it) they call it ‘snubbing’ which I think works well.
  13. They wouldn’t recore a plastic rad here. Had to buy new, pricey, but there you go.
  14. Seriously? You don’t think that one hasn’t been done to death?
  15. Pokes you in the chest with his boney wizened finger…‘I’m 60 this year you know’ IMG_2674.MOV
  16. He’s not alone in throwing stones, far from it.
  17. Work has picked up nicely, a lot to do with the superb weather here I reckon. Still waiting for it to fall off a cliff, seem to have been saying that for years. We had a dry winter after a dry autumn, water levels never recovered after last summer.
  18. New Ford Ranger 2.0 bi turbo 21mpg average towing, pricing etc. Velly velly thirsty. If economy is your aim, don’t get one.
