[Reets]

They look like a bunch of lands from Carlow heading to Slane in the mid 90s.

I managed to cut down a 10 or 12m tree without snapping the washing line, or maiming myself. All done in a reasonably tight spot.

Like you planned and executed the 'drop' zone?


Why do you hate trees?

Had a date with this lady yesterday
She's got the best energy, she's gorgeous and we like all the same things

It remains to be seen how I will fuck this up

I lopped all the side branches off first, then got about 4m up it and weakened it with a deep cut and pulled it over with a rope. That was the part that could have gone wrong.

I'm going to coppice it. Did all the overhead work with manual tools, can now break out the chainsaw for anything below waist level.

So the tree will stay alive and you will keep trimming it?

Every see that coppice guy on Grand Designs?
Best episode of that yoke they ever did.

 

[magicbastarder]

yes, the ben law one. was fantastic.
the 'before' pic here is after i'd lopped off a load of the side branches already, and the after pic was after i'd cut it in two. and you can also see that bastard helium balloon that's been trapped in the birch tree for the last year or more.

I was gonna ask "This is gonna grow back??"

But you see it all the time, even stumps springing back to life and so on

 

[magicbastarder]

yep, all our deciduous tree species will grow back from stumps. there's a theory that they needed to be able to to survive being stripped by mammoths.

I got a smile and a look. And the look was The Look. Not that I know what I'm at, not ready.

For the day thats in it I've wrecked my chances.

I'm going to maker myself a cup of hot cocoa and bed.

I just replaced the 50w equivalent bulb above the bench in the shed with a 120w equivalent.
The resident spiders probably feel like they’ve just been hit by a light blast from a nuclear test - but I can now actually see what I’m working on

 

[GO]

Great day in the shed today. Loads of music made. Surfing adverts.All washed down with a spice box and a can of cola. Sweeeeeet

 

[seanc]

I don't give a fuck, but the YouTube algorithm threw up something surprising today. which makes a change.

it knows my name now.
It's not a particularly good tune, and Kanye West is involved. But there's some good rhymes and also my name and my life over the last year.

Hives and I are in Prague for a few days. We had a few drinks and absinthe shots last night and then went to the sex machines museum. She brought the tiny plastic hands I got her for Christmas, and it was all just fucking hilarious getting photos with them.
She was laughing so hard at one point I thought she was going to fall down the stairs.
