  1. Thanks.I used marine ply for the internal ceiling/roof then there is a void of about 60mm ,then the logs , an old wire fence nailed to the logs to spread the weight of the soil, 3 layers of cheap black plastic DPC stuff over the wire fence,then slate batons to act like steps that stop the soil sliding off, then a weed proof membrane stapled to batons as I thought this would hold the soil better than the smooth DPC plastic sheets...then soil and turf. I was worried about putting too much soil on because or the weight ,its prob only about 3 inches of soil in most places but the turf has been there since May this year and its lasted the dry hot summer just fine...also due to shallow soil the grass does not grow, i strimmed the long seed bits off the grass a few weeks ago but the grass has never been cut.
  2. I have logs done at the 50/50 type on my shed roof.
  3. He works hard, it`s easy to stay in shape doing that kinda work. 🙂
  4. Just the other week I saw a driver sucking on a balloon whilst driving...I guess it was that laughing gas they do nowadays. I have smelt weed twice from family cars that have young children in that go by when walking my dog, smoking weed with kids in the car just shows that some people do not give a sht for anyone or thing.
  5. From reading this thread it would seem that the Cherry Tree likes garden hopping...Could the chopped down Tree in your garden be the result of someone elses Tree`s suckers from a tree removed years ago .You need to inspect all neighbouring gardens for old stumps. Find the original Tree that caused this and blame those people.
  6. Due to the Covid pandemic, the Germans are preparing a plan for life with a dramatically reduced supply of sausage and cheese. It was their wurst käse scenario.
  7. I asked my grandmother how she is enjoying her new stairlift. She said It’s driving her up the wall.
  8. What do you call a hen looking at lettuce? Chicken sees a salad.
  9. A huge thank you to one of my neighbours for allowing me to borrow her large sheet of plastic covering. Ta Pauline
  10. Mickey Mouse is in the divorce court... Judge: I'm sorry Mr Mouse, but I don't think that your wife having buck teeth is grounds for divorce. MM: I never said she had buck teeth, I said she was f@@k@@g Goofy!
  11. I overdosed on viagra once it was the hardest day of my life.
  12. I'm afraid of elevators. I take a lot of steps to avoid them.
  13. The missus asked what I was doing on the computer. I said I was looking for cheap flights... She got all excited, which is strange as she'd never shown any interest in darts before!
  14. My family has discovered local walks we never thought of being enjoyable before, we have discovered the country side around our home and climbed all the hills we can see that for 16 years before of living in the hills I have always thought were not possible to enjoy, before covid we would usually drive to the local not so hilly park ,canals ect for walks. Also I have had to give up smoking as I am too tight to pay UK shop prices after having duty free smoke for as long as i can remember... thanks to Covid I cannot go on my holidays to get it and neither my parents who usually go 3 times a year and bring it back for me...Tried 1 fake baky pouch and that was enough for me to stop, vaping now.
  15. About a year ago I started drinking a shot or 2 of brandy before bed time as I had heard from numerous old people it keeps colds away , and what with covid giving people coughs and myself for as long as i can remember suffering bad coughs with common colds ect I thought I would give Brandy a go... and I am now at the age if i drink beer before bed then i need a pee in the middle of the night. Any way, after only weeks of being on the Brandy I noticed a significant improvement of my airways and sinuses ...All my life i have suffered runny noses in the morning which can make me cough and then give head aches...also related was an ear infection last January that lead to a CT scan which discovered my sinuses were blocked and stuff. A year of drinking Brandy or Whisky before bed has now seen at least 3 colds come and go without any bad cough and also had covid without a cough at all...I looked it up on-line and it would seem that some people do benefit from a little drink before bed. I spoke to my ENT specialist and he even said keep on drinking Brandy if it works for me, just do not drink too much.
  16. The wife was counting all the 1p's and 2p's out on the kitchen table when she suddenly got very angry and started shouting and crying for no reason. I thought to myself "She's going through the change."
  17. I never wanted to believe that my son stole from his job as a road worker, but when I got home, all the signs were there.
  18. A man escapes from a prison where he's been locked up for 15 years. He breaks into a house to look for money and guns. Inside, he finds a young couple in bed. He orders the guy out of bed and ties him to a chair. While tying the homeowner's wife to the bed, the convict gets on top of her, kisses her neck, then gets up and goes into the bathroom. While he's in there, the husband whispers over to his wife, 'Listen, this guy is an escaped convict. Look at his clothes! He's probably spent a lot of time in jail and hasn't seen a woman in years. I saw how he kissed your neck. If he wants sex, don't resist, don't complain ... do whatever he tells you. Satisfy him no matter how much he nauseates you. This guy is obviously very dangerous. If he gets angry, he'll kill us both. Be strong, honey. I love you!' His wife responds, 'He wasn't kissing my neck. He was whispering in my ear. He told me that he's gay, thinks you're cute, and asked if we had any Vaseline. I told him it was in the bathroom.
  19. When I was 14, I hoped that one day I would have a girlfriend. When I was 16 I got a girlfriend, but there was no passion, so I decided I needed a passionate girl with a zest for life. In college I dated a passionate girl, but she was too emotional. Everything was an emergency; she was a drama queen, cried all the time and threatened suicide. So I decided I needed a girl with stability. When I was 25 I found a very stable girl but she was boring. She was totally predictable and never got excited about anything. Life became so dull that I decided that I needed a girl with some excitement. When I was 28 I found an exciting girl, but I couldn't keep up with her. She rushed from one thing to another, never settling on anything. She did mad impetuous things and made me miserable as often as happy. She was great fun initially and very energetic, but had no direction. So I decided to find a girl with some real ambition. When I turned 31, I found a smart ambitious girl with her feet planted firmly on the ground and married her. She was so ambitious that she divorced me and took everything I owned. I am now older and wiser, and am looking for a girl with big tits.
  20. Since it started snowing my wife has done nothing but look through the window. If it gets much deeper I'll have to let her in!
  21. I received a phone call from one of many gorgeous ex-girlfriends the other day. We lost track of time, chatting about the wild, romantic nights we used to enjoy together. I couldn't believe it when she asked if I'd be interested in meeting up and rekindling a little of that "magic". "Wow!" I said. "I don't know if I could keep pace with you now. I'm a bit older and a bit heavier than when you last saw me." She just giggled and said she was sure I'd "rise" to the challenge. "Yeah." I said. "Just so long as you don't mind a man with a waistline that's a few inches wider these days!" She laughed and told me to stop being so silly. She teased me saying that tubby men were cute, and she was sure I would still be a great lover. Anyway, she giggled and said, "I've put on a few pounds myself!" So I told her to fcuk off.
