Agreed, very engaging videos.
-
I like in his other recent video when he said he needed to look after the yew tree then threw a branch at it.
-
I'd agree with that, doesn't look too fresh either.
-
I'd still strip it on the way up and snip it down in 4 or 5 bits, especially if the owner was at home, so it looks like they are getting more of a show. 790cm is my guess.

Anybody who is chicken-inclined, half IBCs also make great duckweed growth tanks. Duckweed is packed full of protein, and makes a great addition to hen feed, either scooped out and dumped on the ground for them to scratch through, or in a bowl either plain or mixed in with any treats or dinner you give them. Especially useful during times of lockdown, or when forage is otherwise scarce. Also: fermentation tank for seaweed or comfrey tea.

They all need nailing to the ****************ing wall. Genuinely malicious harm to someone's livelihood like that... hunt them down and throw them out the airlock.
-
I wonder if the shoots, when long enough, could be not-exactly woven together to form a living carpet, adding another layer of separation from the bog.
-
Well you say that now... but all the cheapest burgers will be lab-grown in the not-too-distant future.

You can now get peat free bark chip. I've been looking around for ages, but literally none of the bags of bark or wood chip I checked mentioned if they were peat free or not. So I'm on to a winner here, and I'll definitely be stocking up on a few bags the next time I see a Homebase.

That second one looks particularly painful. She was watching you come down from the tree a few years ago thinking to herself "I thought he'd take more than that!", but was too meek to ask or worried that you'd judge her if she did.

We've timed our teabreaks to the rain radar before. Crack on for another hour then late lunch in the truck, instead of break at the usual time and climb in the rain. Technology is bloody brilliant.
-
Weren't they still using the pine cone technique when you were young grandad? People these days seem to think that the forecast is inaccurate because they can't inform a specific individual exactly what time it will start raining in the 3 square feet that they occupy at any given moment. Personally I'm amazed at how successful the predictions can be with scant data. It's like magic.

Easy. Start a war, cancel elections. Like that scruffy oik power-hungry dictator Zelenskyy.
-
Fairly predictable.
-
Only for people who occasionally venture outside.
-
You'd definitely want to cook it before recycling the protein back into the flock, especially if dead through illness not injury. But personally... I wouldn’t do that. This isn't mid-war Stalingrad you know.
-
How many can the tree hold, do you think? Any culled from injury I feed to the dogs, any dead through illness I either leave in the woods for a forest burial or they are given to the crabs.
-
Ahh, the poor wee thing. Eggbound, impacted crop, achey breaky heart?
-
Ehh, no... that's not even, umm... slightly true. At all. Although not 100% accurate 100% of the time, the presence of weather forecasting does (among other things) allow you time to prepare and advise for such events as hurricanes, which the US has a somewhat colourful history of. But I suppose it's like Covid testing... if you don't test for it, the numbers stay low. In the same (weather) vane, if you don't keep the population informed about the increasingly-unpredictable effects of climate change, it's easier to keep a lid on the situation when yet another storm-of-the-century obliterates New Orleans... or Miami... or Mobile...
-
I can't see this working out very well for... anyone, really.
-
No mountains here. I wash my hands of this pointless discussion.
-
If this man came up to me in the street demanding to know my name, where I live, and where I work, I wouldn't tell him. Why would it be any different online? Some information doesn't need to be shared with every faceless weirdo. Anyway, I don't even know why I'm fighting Steven's corner for him. Hang on... is that his real name? Not very anonymous, is it?
-
I shouldn't be, and I'm not. But I have been told to be scared, in a laughable display of faux machismo. I bet their dad could beat up my dad, too. My, what a pointless thread.
-
Ah come on, that's too quick. Leave us something to complain about
-
Sorry Rich, if that IS your real name, but you seem to have allowed the point that Mr Yourn Amehere was making to flap gracefully over your head there. Personally, I wouldn't begrudge anyone wanting to remain anonymous on here after being told, repeatedly and in no uncertain terms, that we should be afraid of some members.
