  1. Not mine roys, photo 2 there is tarmac behind the house of a customer I had last winter. Nice yard anyway, well kept.
  2. Lovely stuff.
  3. I like these, and you can even cobble together something similar with a pallet and a bunch of 1m+/- straight sticks and a nail gun.
  4. BREAKING NEWS: Lesbians flock to Ohio in droves after reports of record numbers of eating pussy.
  5. No, Steve! Don't do your own research like that! Do it by listening to the man's little speech on LinkedIn, absorbing it all as fact, then passing it on to others as gospel. That's how you do your own research!
  6. "Sign in to view content" Nah, I'm good. Could you provide a plot synopsis for the above, old buddy old pal?
  7. Would you put dimensions on "massive"? Biggest man-portable rings, or bigger?
  8. I saw one of them 20 years later, earlier today, taking my eldest to her swimming lesson and diving practice for my youngest. Big rolls all the way down his knees there were, and he looked miserable as fnck just being there in the changing room. Fair play to him for being there though, he's got a long road ahead of him but hopefully he'll stick with it.
  9. What else are we mistaken about? Are we going to have to get back into the covid thread?!
  10. This is just spinning my whole world around, man.
  11. I do like how we've just glossed over the horrors of the debate, until you opened that can. Jon Stewart on the debate
  12. During a moment of silence at the 9/11 memorial.
  13. That's what I'm basing my assumptions on, certainly.
  14. Well I'm perfectly happy to have my assumptions destroyed and my errors corrected, but I will need to see everything laid out on that nice neat little table.
  15. Is that need-need, or do they just need to have a simulated process? I would have thought that some gentle rotting or fermentation, then soaking, then mechanical separation of seed and pulp, followed by a spell in the freezer or being forgotten about behind the shed for the winter, would be a decent enough simulation for most seeds. It could quite well be that some seeds need a specific acid or enzyme from the guts of a bird though, it wouldn't surprise me at all. Edit: This process seems logical enough... Rowan - How to Grow a Rowan Tree (Mountain Ash) with TCV TREEGROWING.TCV.ORG.UK Rowan can be a tricky tree to grow. With care and this short guide, you'll be collecting the... I'll be doing the above with hawthorn this winter, trying to find out if native seed-propagated can ever be commercially viable over cuttings grown in Holland, which we absolutely need to stop using... for everything.
  16. Right, someone get a newby to pick all of the green bits out of the chip box, then weigh it.
  17. Very surprising, I would have assumed that summer wood would be heavier. I'd say it's definitely worth looking into. Maybe I'll take a few litre samples as described on the previous page and make that handy little table! Check back in a few years for the results 😉
  18. Don't forget to weigh several different one litre samples of each wood type and average them out! Science demands the accuracy of a few grams either way.
  19. Is that all the variation would be, do you think? Chip from summer beech in leaf has to be a good bit heavier than ash felled in winter... I couldn't be sure, but it seems like it'd be more than that 15%. Anyone ever printed a nice neat little table with different chip weights on it? Would be a handy resource to have.
  20. I wonder what would happen if you ran it through a slushy or ice cream machine...
  21. Laurel is, like, the antithesis of my whole vibe, man. Holly I can dig. Seems aggressive though. Maybe holm oak...
  22. I might try and find an organic or free-range version more local to me for the next batch, though. Might even just forage a bunch of big autumn leaves and scrawl my number on them in felt tip marker. Horse chestnut should do it.
  23. Looks lovely! I got some done on vistaprint the other day, I'm very happy with them.
