Ensuring I don't damage tree extending a path (and tree identification)
peds replied to BobUK's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
Bloody lovely. -
What a waste of letters.

There you are missing a link again. The question was "What difference would anything I can show you make to any opinion you currently hold?" Nothing there relating to your own words. Therefore, you are a liar, which is the lowest thing a man can be. Anyway, we won't dwell on technicalities. I'm still riding the high of learning that there is no crisis. https://youtu.be/B4c_SkROzzo?feature=shared

Eh? I've said nothing of the sort buddy. I refuse these wild alligators. The world doesn't revolve around you and your perfect little ecosystem you know. https://youtu.be/mQZmCJUSC6g?feature=shared

Yeah, but how would either of us benefit? Why go to the trouble? What change would it make to your opinions on the aforementioned biodiversity crisis, be it real or not? I don't think it'd hold much sway in your mind, like it clearly did in mine. Anyway, I wouldn't call it an article.
-
I mean... I could... but what would be the point?
-
Oh, that. Sorry, the question seemed fairly ambiguous. Why, I read it right here on these boards.
-
I just saw the D in your username and made a guess.
-
I'm actually really pleased to hear there's no biodiversity crisis, that's cheered me up no end. Cheers Dwayne.

Absolutely, best to try and harvest from as many different specimens as possible though, we don't want another genetic bottleneck bringing the same problem a few years down the line!
-
As long as it's polished nice and smooth, no hidden splintery bits, I'm sure it's grand. Probably a niche market for them, could make a pretty penny.
-
Yo... that, umm, wand on the right... does it serve a purpose?
-
But the question is Stubby, have any appeared worse in the past but are showing signs of recovery this year? Or next... Regarding "trigger happy", if they are near targets I can absolutely agree with snipping first and asking questions later, and I've removed my fair share myself, but of course those ones aren't really going to show many signs of recovery in old wood. Plus, I wonder about the strength of the timber in "recovering" trees, if in fact they are, especially down in the roots. We've all seen keeled-over ash due to weakened root systems, I'm sure. So if an ash shows signs of recovery, is it still structurally compromised?
-
I thought this was quite a mundane thread so far, to be honest. Which bits are you taking issue with?

"I THINK," he whispered, barely audible over the sound of the nearby jet engines, "THAT'S THE QUIET MAJORITY MAKING THEMSELVES HEARD!"
-
Woooooaaahh... that's incredible.
-
What?! Speak up, I can't hear you!! Edit... I can't help but feel as though there's a certain subtlety that isn't being grasped here...
-
Haaaa! Italics added for emphasis. ROFLMAO, LOL, etc.
-
Absolutely on the jets, no argument there. On your other point, can I suggest the removal of all road markings? Apparently it works out just fine.
-
No, that's not really the theme I'm going for.
-
No, veganism in general will be outlawed. Life without leather? Unthinkable. What will we whip those filthy smokers with?
-
Green party dictatorship please, finally make the changes needed to apply the brakes a little. Throw intensive farmers into the sea, tax air travel into oblivion, mandatory veganship for anyone who complains about it too loudly, instant rewilding and reforestation on every available scrap of land, coffee enemas for anyone found littering, obligatory cyclelanes right through the middle of your ****************ing lawn, no more lawns, re-education camps for anyone involved in the manufacturing, distribution, or application of chemical pesticides and herbicides. We'll start with that and see where it takes us.
-
Wymer! This is for your benefit. Would you kindly wake up? I've no intention of going through this all again. https://youtu.be/uDoQFcQEpOQ?feature=shared

I've made no such suggestion, I haven't seen an ash in the UK since December. My observations have been made from deep behind the borders of the EU. I would assume, if my hopes on this matter have any kind of truth behind them, that it's a worldwide thing, and that the slight inclination towards resistance and recovery is more likely to occur in self-seeded local varieties of tree, rather than those from forestry nurseries in Holland or wherever. As I say... maybe I'm imagining things, but I'm going to keep watching with my fingers crossed for the next few years.

Please sir, what's juxtaposition? Like, missionary and that?
