I have to say; in all my 60+ years I've never known a year like it. After a wet end to 2023, deceptively dry January '24, it rained almost non stop until late May. We had one week of dust in July. Started raining again in August and apart from the first two weeks in November, it's been non stop rain again since.. We looked at our estate timber sales for the year and they are 20% of what we normally harvest. This is due to nothing other than the saturated ground making work either impossible or causing more damage than it's worth. Please God I never want to see the likes of this again.

Pihl Logging announced it. He'd been ill for some time. Not fake. -
Too Young. "Less Bitchin - More Loggin'". 😭

Ah, if as Steve B says he was motivated by a rescue mission then fair enough. Driving through the water fine - causing extra damage by the speed tsunami he created isn't. Imo.

Tenbury Wells tractor: Man arrested after town flood damage WWW.BBC.CO.UK In a video, a wave from the tractor's wake is seen striking shops and homes in Tenbury... What a fricking Muppet. That's sympathy for farmers brought down a notch or two. Arrogance, pure and simple right there.

I've done 15 hour weeks when the weather is ridiculous to 100+ hour plus weeks in the summer harvesting. What's normal?! 🤑

I used to have the view (and so did in real life) it was better to run a bigger saw with a longer bar to give more power and less back strain. As I got older I started to like small saws again. No good in big trees though. A 500i on a 28' has been my daily for over a year now. Couldn't go smaller so appreciate the weight trimming. I'm cutting big Douglas.

More boners for Britain. Now thinking up silly storm names in Alphabetical order 🤣

I think FMS would be your best ally in that scenario 👍 -
Narrowing down the crankcase apparently. 500i style. Longevity? Clutch too small on 500...

400.1 is supposed to be 400g lighter and doing away with the magnesium piston 🤷

Johnsond - on the whole I agree with the politic of what I read of what you've written. Probably about 10% of it max. But I have a question - how the FK do you have so much time to write so much?!

Oh I agree. I'm just eluding to the blatant shenanigans

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cqjrpv218r0o I cannot imagine tweeting about this when the Biden administration just pulled the pin on the WW3 grenade. Funny how Zelensky only made a point shortly before about how the war will shorten*. Playbook.
-
I agree in principle; Russia buys it's arms from where it likes, so should Ukraine. But... the Biden administration just pulled the pin on the WW3 grenade.

He misses the old him. Boy I know that feeling.

I'm watching it now. Also glad I didn't stay up. Sad. Like his last fights before - Mike wasn't firing. There's a video of how he feels inside - I'll try and find it.
