Call me paranoid(or a bit pissed) but....The Future Dear Sir , Our records show that your work pattern increased last month by a total of 12.5 hours from the amount you usually work, and did actually submit to us, yet there was no increase in the amount of Tax you paid to us. ANPR cameras confirmed your work vehicle was in use from *** to ** on such a date and the hours of use do not match your account of the work you submitted for that period. If your reason for your activity's in your work vehicle relate to another matter other than work you must provide proof in digital form along with a letter from the insurer confirming right of use, the usage of cash and therefore no trace of location or activity to explain this time period will generate an assumption of criminal intent and we will prosecute you in a court of law. Your vehicle is for work purposes only , therefor you now owe £££ in unpaid tax and a fine of £200. HMRC

You are right but it will get harder as tech gets every where and kids growing up just accept it as the norm.

I recently saw something somewhere about how in China people get a good citizen rating score or something based on loads of different things including internet posts , and this effects their credit rating, your family's score ,interest you pay on loans ect and job prospects ,even where you can live, where your kids can go to school and all. It pays to be a good citizen and you should do as you are told. This got me thinking that the way things are here now in the UK are not far off the same as this communist shite above in that what we do is recorded. Everything we do is openly recorded, the information of the average person in digital form is way beyond any past spy agency ,gov could ever achieve or probably dreamed of. You wake up...numerous devises can record this action from just checking your phone to elec use and even tv company if you bung it on(Sky,Virgin)....And someone somewhere could use the info. You order food online, groceries and your takeaways....Now what you eat and even how much you shit can probably be recorded. Your Electricity,Gas,Water use is all recorded with smart meters....Usage times ,power used, peaks ,when you are in or out ect bullshit that's again recorded. You use major road networks and your registration plate gets recorded thanks to ANPR cameras which are the future for car parks ,petrol stations, even some mcdonals have them now....so your journeys are recorded. What you buy unless you use cash ...recorded. Where you go out is documented to if you pay by card. and your phone also keeps a track of your location 24/7 . Have an opinion? favourite colour ? like lesbian porn? online and its recorded Private window Porn hub...its still recorded somewhere. There is no doubt more ways but ffs that's enough. Now add Artificial intelligence computer learning tech and all the information possible , surely you could hand pick the good(citizens who conform to what you say and lack opinion) ,bad (people who spend cash,voice there different opinions to the gov,and criminals ect)and even ugly(daily pornhub user ,reg orders box`s of tissue from ASDA but is male, ongoing 8th year, on dating sites reply's rare). Its not 1984 FFS its 2-0 fkin late.

That is what I ment Steve, cheers...There are loads of links to this issue, here is the first on google..https://www.forbes.com/sites/neilhowe/2017/10/02/youre-not-the-man-your-father-was/#10a438498b7f

Its all about Testosterone levels IMO They go down every decade in men so its got to take effect somehow after 50 years, and that produces eventually a generation of snowflakes as they are called of late.

I knew they could tell polar shift from rocks but how can they from a tree ring ,I thought it has to have metal somewhere in it to show polar shift.

Cheap beer...women walking around in colourful underwear (bikinis)...warm weather and a happy family , I love holidays abroad...Just don't take the Mother in law like we did.

T`was my Bday recently , got whisky...now full of great ideas. How about we all do a David Copperfield(im sure that's the right guy) thing with the pic and all stare at it , maybe holding a spoon? but this time lets wish bad shit on the little scroat instead of magic shite.

Its the summer holiday season ,that over time will help pay for beer in the sun, footy has ended, they need something.

I don't do Facebook but I use the misses account and I bet if you post the pic on the local buy and sell page someone will come up with a name , around these parts similar situations get results done this way.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lancashire-48790943 £100,000 to plant 10 tree`s...Who is getting rich from this ,or is it a fair price?

I picked up the wrong card recently before going to get diesel ,our toddler plays with our old out of date cards and I accidently took this. Got my diesel went to pay and it did not work , the cashier said I have to wait at the petrol station for a debt recovery company to come which can take upto an hour and it will include a charge of £10.I only got a tenners worth of diesel to start with. I said here are my details, I will be back in a minute with my in date card , she said I cannot do that I must wait...I said call the police if you have to but I am going, went...came back 5minutes later and paid.What muppet would wait.

I will take any logs of any size, soft wood or hard wood, all will be appreciated. Give me 30mins notice any day and I can be there. Will always give beer vouchers .

My probs are neck and back...could not do without my screwfix electric log splitter, best xmas pressie ever from my misses.only about £130 I think.

At least the sender knows where his stuff is with you, the company above charges to .

aspenarb you sure are a generous person giving so much away all the time...I would have to at the least put a donation to charity box there ...if not then for your own beer fund box.

One positive thing maybe is they let you out of Hospital?...Did you have a scan and get the results? When I have been to hospital with similar symptoms other than the voice bit they mri scanned me, put me on a ward until a neurologist was available and then sent me home as I did not need immediate attention (which is f-ing brilliant in world of neurology from my experiences), and I did get better with pain meds and taking it easy.

This info seems to say it could be dodgy ,looks legit.

I have seen trees near recently over flowed rivers have all the soil washed away exposing most of the roots, which makes me think would an air hose work blowing the soil away ?...Would it be possible to get an air compressor and hose to blast the soil away to expose all the roots in order to cut them easily? Would it work in wet soil? Stick a gazebo over it to contain the dust?

Will include knotted nipples and eyes next time , that's a good idea, thanks. I am hoping to win a competition with this but wont jinx it by saying what comp...at the least I want to somehow promote it to art students ...with this technique of carving statues anything is possible to anyone with not much money and equipment...Easter Island potential chainsaw carvers can now live the dream to.

I have wanted to try Chain Saw carving for some time but it is difficult to get into if you do not have easy access to big lumps of wood or the room to store or work them ,the tools, equipment to lift and move big lumps of wood are all out of reach to most people like myself. Then I had an idea...Why not use pallet wood? Glued and screwed together with the screws carefully placed so as to not catch them with the saw (in my dreams). I got myself a few broken pallets and did this... It is made from over 270 pieces of wood taken from broken pallets, I knackered my chain fairly quick on a screw or 2...Finished it with Flap Discs after that. It is probably the most difficult thing I have ever made and it is difficult to carve once you get to the screws so you have to place them right from the start.

Its an oldy but worth a look if you have never seen before. The European Commission The European Commission has announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the EU, rather than German, which was the other contender. Her Majesty's Government conceded that English spelling had room for improvement and has therefore accepted a five-year phasing in of "Euro-English". In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make sivil servants jump for joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of the "k", Which should klear up some konfusion and allow one key less on keyboards. There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year, when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f", making words like "fotograf" 20% shorter. In the third year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horible mes of the silent "e" is disgrasful. By the fourth yer, peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v". During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and similar changes vud of kors be aplid to ozer kombinations of leters. After zis fifz yer, ve vil hav a reli sensibl riten styl. Zer vil be no mor trubls or difikultis and everivun vil find it ezi to understand ech ozer. ZE DREM VIL FINALI COM TRU! Herr Schmidt

What is the price of a bag of B&Q logs? I have always thought it was well known they are crap value for money and wet ,just the same as garage forecourts . If I was ever desperate enough to need to buy wood to burn right away and from a shop that sells it on the side, I would buy 4/2 timber and cut them up, I bet you get more heat and actual product than buying these bags of logs. My local DIY store has 4inch by 2inch timber at 2400mm long ,I think for £2.70 ,2 or 3 lengths of this cut up would fill a few bags and be dry enough to burn = better value, but you have to spend 10mins with a saw so not for snow flakes.

If someone owes you money and refuses to pay, I have found this info useful , Do not under any circumstances spray cheap white spirit on a Tarmac driveway as it will destroy it and potentially cost thousands to fix depending on size. Also it is illegal without the owners permission . Even sprayed in fairy liquid bottles or water guns from the road side, its illegal so don't do it. Do not under any circumstances put acid on a car or van as it will write it off and get you arrested if you get caught, even though I imagine its as silent as any possible way to destroy a vehcle ,its still not good to mess with acid, proper PPE is essential. Also... Never fill water balloons with paint , where ever they land they will never leave a nice finish ...and they make a right mess.

And at the other end of the scale...I have just heard of a neighbour farmer women paying more for a job than was quoted. Job was £10,000 but half way through the job the track or tracks came off the digger and it cost £700 to fix...So...The customer now has a final bill of £10,700...As unhappy as she is at the unfair increase she still wants to pay it and be done with it, her partner apparently has more sense and does not want to pay but it looks like she will win and pay as the stress is too much for her, been going on for a while since the job finished. WTF is going on in the world? too many piss takers. In this scenario I would not want to pay the fuckers anything for taking the piss,I would certainly well drag it out and deduct a meal out to de-stress the misses from the 10G . I hope you Forestboy1978 didn't add to the invoice like these muppets above. And also on the subject of people who don't pay...Sometimes patience can pay off as a few years ago I was owed a few grand from a new client and I was ready to rip out work and even cause damage as to prove a point but at the time I just did not have the time or energy due to being so busy....Anyway the money eventually came with an apology , and then loads of work for years after...Could not believe that I nearly through away such an in the end good customer. And of course the very next job I got from him I added 10%ish just because of the stress caused by his behaviour before.
