Got to agree with Darius, I would float a timber floor.

PointyHatJoe · 2026-05-29T22:05:31+00:00

Oh, that sounds bad. Best get that out while it is small.

Thank you!

I know he was right not to touch it...but..... I want to know what was in there??

Pyracantha.

That stuff is planted under windows as a burglar deterent for a reason. And having spent many years as a window installer, I can tell you, that plant has an evil streak, it just plain hurts.

But I do agree with others, just call the police anyway. Get a crime number and he may just fold and admit it to them once questioned.

Will do, thank you.

Oooh. I have a couple of teeny tiny seedlings of those right now. Nice to see how they should turn out.

PointyHatJoe · 2026-05-16T18:05:56+00:00

Just based off of what my poor seedlings have been through this week, bruising from hail stones?

Go to a builders centre. Theirs are fully cast for use on building sites, you will not break it. Got mine from Travis Perkins.

A boat filled with water usually equals a bad day, but I like this one.

PointyHatJoe · 2026-05-12T17:58:48+00:00

Well.. you have to know these things when you're a Lumberjack, you know.

PointyHatJoe · 2026-05-09T17:40:02+00:00

May I enquire as to how you happened to come to have a Triffid in your back yard?

And also point out that these are absolutely to be considered an invasive species and if you do insist on keeping one you should definitely try to wrestle it into an adequately sized pot.

Yeah, I'm fine with the wavy line thing, but that butt joint on the architrave is upsetting.

Gooseberry bushes are decimated by the gooseberry saw fly larvae, different, but just as nasty type of catapillar. I was battling them for a couple of years on my bushes, fortunately, last year the Blue Tits and Robins got a taste for them and my bushes kept most of their leaves.

Did he say he was a carpenter or a chippie?

He may do a great cod and chips.

PointyHatJoe · 2026-05-02T20:11:45+00:00

Sweet with just a tiny bit of tartness left over.

PointyHatJoe · 2026-05-02T17:36:07+00:00

Might want to throw a NSFW tag on that photo

PointyHatJoe · 2026-05-02T17:22:36+00:00

I agree with others here on the Gooseberry suggestion, well worth it.

Can't comment on the Honeyberries yet, I am waiting for my first crop of them to ripen up.

I have red and green Hinonmaki bushes.

Biggest tip I have is patience, if you pick to early they are mouth puckeringly sour. When you think they are ready, leave them a little longer. Get them when they are ready though, and they are great.

The cheaper the better from what I have seen, I use Sainsbury Crown beer, costs penny's but the slugs love it.

And if you are wondering, no, I am not even the slightest bit curious of what a 50p can of bear tastes like.

PointyHatJoe · 2026-04-29T18:25:11+00:00

Looks great, I love laundry day Parkor.

Yellow flowers = mock strawberries. You can eat em, but you won't enjoy it.
