A quick quote from Trump: "I want to just thank everybody, in particular, God. I want to just say we love you God, and we love our great military, protect them. God bless the Middle East, God bless Israel, and God bless America." amongst others where he is emphasising his relationship with a god (which god is not specified). I wonder if he has a new Bible to flog, perhaps he has been working on a sequel in the background? "Bible 2: The Two Towers", and I guess the third book would be "Bible 3: The return of the king"

I'd have to go with A and E, petrol and man power - though I am imagining a coal powered trimmer, that would be interesting!

Back to the bombs though, - I think this will make Israel bolder in the region knowing it has had recent US support. They are not going for example, to suspend operations in Gaza but will continue to flatten it. - If Iran retaliates against the US and a larger war starts then Trump can kiss his coveted Nobel Peace Prize nomination goodbye. However I don't think that the Iranian leadership is completely stupid, and are not going to go on the attack to US bases in the middle east yet - they do have time on their hands able to wait for the best moments unlike Trump and most western politicians who only have till the next set of elections to make a positive impact and improve their election chances.

You asked about saws in a thread related to Trump, you were given an reply regarding saws and Trump - what more can we do in this thread?
-
Do you know what the word 'Radical' means by the way? If the Iranian leadership is anything, it is not radical !!

Tool and fckwit. Edited at 2:15 in the morning I reckon. Last online at 4:00 on a Sunday morning. Does it lie awake at night tossing and turning because it has missed an opportunity to have a dig, perhaps it sleeps on the couch these days, D'Senior Dating, and is awake anyway? Perhaps it has lost all sense of irony, or is it a shame thing for a man from Blyth who doesn't know where coal comes from? I don't know, anyone else know?

Neighbours tree problems
Steven P replied to NeighbourWoes's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
Not a lot you can do with tree roots and the path, apart from perhaps relaying the path. You could dig down and chop out the offending roots - at a risk of weakening the tree and its support which I guess you don't want with it being close to the house. You could point out the problem to the neighbour and ask them to remove the offending trees - from your question I think the reply will be a negative, and then you could seek legal action for the same... which will probably fail... costing you ££ and the rest of you neighbourly relationship. Be different if it is affecting the house itself where you could put the issue to your insurers to deal with. -
Bite at what you tool?

Though of course if Trumps actions are to gain a prize rather than through altruistic reasons, for the good of mankind, then that kind of eliminates him from the process doesn't it? So far though, he has done very little to merit a peace prize, even in Pakistan - India, a peace of sorts was done by direct contact between the 2 of them with no involvement from the US

Whoopsie, trimmed the hedge today... Am I in trouble? (for avoidance of doubt, there were no nests in there, never have been, but I check every time, low hedge, a cat and fox neighbourhood, birdies are not that stupid)
-
Had a smart meter installed the other week, in the mail they sent asking for info was "do you have a dog" and in the final instructions (arrival time, how long the job would take....) was "if you have any pets can you lock them up" (words to that effect) - if meter company can do it then is it unreasonable to ask the same? I've found since lockdown the number of poorly behaved dogs has increased - lockdown pets who were never socialised as puppies.

...4 today... are you bored Gareth? Used to think that you were better than your counterparts on the right wing side of politics and able to form a discussion without resorting to insults.
-
To be blunt, I don't think that Trump has ever done any manual work (remembering his hurty foot that stopped him going to Vietnam), so no, don't think he has ever touched a chainsaw. His Bestie, though, Musk, he was on stage wielding one if that counts? However, not sure how that affects Trumps recent policies and 'will let you know in 2 weeks' whether he is going to attack Iran. At least his republican counterpart, Bush was decisive in attacking Iraq - but both might be flawed with going to war in the middle east. If it was me though, I wouldn't be putting it on the worlds media that any attacks you are going to make will be in 2 weeks time... plenty of notice that whatever good stuff you have is moved out the way to safety.
-
Is that right? If you say so then it must be true
-
.... number 3... just saying. And nothing at all to do with Trump yet.
-
Ahh well done, personal attack on myself number 2 for the day and it is not even time for a tea break. Any chance of returning to the headline subject, last time I checked I am not the POTUS
-
So... another 2 week deadline that Trump will honour what he says he will do. I wonder... 24 hours to stop war in Ukraine (Hasn't stopped) 1 weeks notice else all hell will break loose in Gaza (It hasn't) Immediate bring cost of groceries down (They haven't)(Groceries is a wonderful word isn't it) ... and eggs (which did fall in price but not because of Trump) Canada to pay tariffs in 3 weeks (still waiting... another 3 weeks to go) .. I could continue so now the peaceful guy is saying "will make decision on Iran in 2 weeks" - I wonder if that will also stretch out?
-
You sure... correction applied.
-
Eggs - you've left us hanging, what was causing this?
-
I see this bothered you at 3 in the morning to keep you from your sleep, enough to post some more hundred page long posts. You show a distinct lack of understanding of my earlier post. Suggest you read carefully, take a deep breath and then stop trying to attack at every opportunity. You might lead a happier life full of daisies and flowers instead of rage and hatred.

Depends on the customer, they might not know any appropriate qualifications - just know that someone (insurers...) have asked for them to be suitably qualified with risk assessments... might draw a blank if you ask the question... I'd be tempted to play off the experience outweighs paper qualifications and offer up what you might have - basic chainsaw tickets, whatever you have that might be (a bit) related to milling and working with timber.

Had to google that, yes living nettles like good soil - but are great to add nitrogen to the soil if used as a compost. Am getting confused with my age, just know that if I let them grow in the wood then mow them back once or twice a year they are good to improve the soil but was forgetting why

..Ohh, this one could run for a while!.. Nothing we like better than a tricky issue Personally, abortion overall comes down to the individual and justifying it to themselves internally. If they are happy then so be it. However I think there is a time when the foetus is viable to live on it's own given suitable support - 39 weeks 'abortion' and the baby dies is probably not so good in my morals, 4 weeks and a foetus no biggie. Question might be how would you police a cut off date without a doctors training and knowledge and for this, ordering pills through the post is not a good idea.

Noting well that at the time more Tory MPS voted to invade Iraq than Labour MPs did.
