Meetings with remarkable trees, the Arbtalk version
Doug Tait replied to Steve Bullman's topic in Picture Forum
Went to meet a couple of remarkable trees yesterday at Roslin Glen near Edinburgh. Two ancient Sweet Chestnuts. Took a bit of finding but once located just fantastic. Reckoned to be 400-500yrs old. Complete with Ferns, Birch and Rowan growing on them and some iron bands around historical hazard beams they looked in good spirits. Few better pics on this blog...

Found a lovely moth yesterday, busy laying eggs.

That's what the guide said, that particular machine never 'worked' underground, it came from a training place for display.

Morning all. Good day yesterday at the mining museum, tour given by a 3rd generation miner that worked there most of his days. A wealth of knowledge that made for an interesting afternoon. Not so sure about the hedgecutter in the car park though. Feeling lethargic today but there are chores to do. Have a good one folks.

You're welcome to join me on the step of shame Mark, bit lonely down here today tbh

I never found the Doc to be much help, all they offered was pills (SSRI's like sertraline) which wasn't for me at the time, or a CBT course which I found to be quite patronising and largely just stated the obvious. Agree with the rest though, being physically active helped slowly, and absolutely the dogs.

Morning all. Nice lie in today, have to say I was ready for it, been a busy week at work. Meeting an old workmate who's come back from NZ for breakfast later, he'd like to see the mining museum so we're off there after. Worryingly I remember the pit when it was open and at one time in my youth I worked with a guy that had previously worked there as a miner. Now it's a museum and it makes me feel bloody old! Have a good one folks.

Feeling like I've had enough now. Been like having an infection today again, sun's hot but the air's cold, the rain/hail showers are biblical and too many days I've used multiple clothes. Dreaming of a few weeks of only needing a t-shirt all day tbh. Having said that, a highlight when I got back from work...

Me too. It stopped one day when she broke her mum's prized jam spoon on my knee, she cried, I ran, she learnt her lesson.

Heard on the radio he made light of it afterwards by saying "my milkshake brings all the people to the rally". Lol, doesn't know what that means then.
