  1. Ahh, I see. Do you inform them? If so how do they react?
  2. I guess. In my mind we should be going after the 100 global companies that produce 70% of the worlds pollution. That’s never gonna happen though is it? So the West will just get taxed to death and line the rich to powerfuls pockets and like trying to solve hunger in Africa nothing will happen, it will just get worse. Anyway, I was somewhat side tracked with the Pity Porn that is feeding and watering Africans. The poorest countries in the world are seeing the biggest population growths, it’s the opposite in the West. If we’re to manage the global population it’s there we need to focus on. Not our tiny Island.
  3. They breed like rats. They pump one out after another with little thought out into how they plan on feeding them in a barren unfruitful land. To feed them and provide them drinking water is just compounding and exasperating the problem. Each to their own though.
  4. No one needs to be killed. Just let nature do it’s thing. Stop providing aid to every third world shithole that produce kids like rats and can’t support them without artificial aid. Stop providing aid to countries where people breed like rats on land that can’t support the most basic of an existence without aid. Education of family planning is pointless, it’s time to consider enforcing it. The untold billions raised for Africa has resulted in nothing except that those who would have died off naturally where kept artificially alive and now there’s much more of them to feed.
  5. Is there an echo in here?
  6. What app do you use to record your call?
  7. What van? 🤣
  8. I think the only countries that take any active notice of what the Catholic Church demands are countries that actually need what they demand implemented. 🤣
  9. Not in our lifetime unfortunately. I’ll start taking this climate change seriously when the likes of Obama and Zuckerberg stops spending millions if not billions on beach front properties and at the same time telling us the sea levels are on the rise. And when they stop flying around the world in private jets to the opening of an envelope and having swinging dick competitions with Yachts. Climate change has never been about saving the planet and only ever about the rich and powerful getting more rich and powerful. Im off out to burn my old Polytunnel cover with burst oil in protest. I could do this daily for the rest of my life and still cause less pollution than these sanctimonious cants.
  10. Nice dream, but that’s all it is. The rich keep getting richer and the average Joe’s and getting drastically poorer. Redistribution of wealth would solve nothing anyway. The only solution is to vastly drop the global population. Another option worth a shot, but I feel ultimately pointless is tax the top 100 companies that produce 70% of the worlds pollution into addressing their ways. Which would result in us living in a world more akin to the dark ages.
  11. That structural engineer must have got his degree in a pack of Weetabix. [emoji16]
  12. Me too. 🤣 I noticed it’s now over eight quid for two organic chicken breasts in Tesco’s now. A sign of things to come maybe.
  13. So we either depopulate or we get used to everything being taxed out of our price range. Meat and international travel for those that can afford it, the elite. And we’ll lap it up it’s “saving” the environment.
  14. This Sycamore in my garden had started to bud. Since this is due to climate change I chopped it down today. Crisis averted.
  15. Both my Stoves are the same.
  16. What’s the worst that could happen? The structure of the logs gets a little outta shape? Whoppie! The op should try it, the 12mm plate “might” warp eventually but by then it’s task of determining if investing £90 on the correct cast iron replacement is worth it or not. No Structure Engineer required.
  17. It’s not for media outlets to decide what the global priorities are and then choose to focus on their own narrative. If hundreds of thousands of people are marching against Covid restrictions and Covid passports globally then clearly it is a global priority to many. The huge push-back and reluctance to take the vaccine in the services seen here and the US to name a few is a clear indication of how much of a global priority it is. You’re so smugly and happily blinkered it’s unreal.
  18. Tell him luckily enough you also live on Skye and can come but at any time.
  19. Yes
  20. I’d never be happy with being static. Too many odd jobs that I’m asked to go to plus moving around my own yard. 1M wide logs is about as wide as I’d go I think? Anything more then I’d get the Panther out.
  21. Lots of laughing from you Leslie and as per usual very light on insight. Stick to knocking out fence posts mate.
  22. I qualified that comment with my far narrower 24” Cant. [emoji38] Will be interesting to see if the owner of the B1001 on here manages with his max cut. I can see me getting a bigger mill within a year or two and would be good to see how he gets on with it.
  23. Set up right a wider mill (within reason) is no less accurate. I’m a perfect 3mm cut (the minimum my mill I’ll cut) across the max width of 24” on my mill. Dial your mill in accurately, correct band tension, correct set and a correct sharpen will go a long way to accurately of cut. I’d not be surprised if the Logosol B1001 is accurate across its far wider cant than my 24”.
  24. Good advice there! I have the Log Turner for my winch now. It doubles up as a winch for loading but I generally just use it to turn big logs. Makes logs up to 30” a one man job again. Being Logosol it’s well engineered and very heavy duty.
  25. It’s all good. I don’t mind if you take the mick of my hobby. [emoji16]
