Did you know they can cut down trees without warning?


Recommended Posts

Trees, I thought we were talking about trees and I still say the Victorians and more likely Edwardians with some of these trees did not give a fig about what they might look like or what size they might have grown to in 2007.


The infrastructure argument is for another thread surely? But I still think you see this issue with rose tinted optical ware. Although I do accept many of your point on this. Nice of me huh?


Finally, if the (Victorian or any other period) structure of one's house is threatened by a tree and one is unable to sell it either because one's buyer cannot get insurance cover, or a claim would take forever to sort out and you might want to move, and the buyer might think they are stuck with one insurance company and an uncompetitive premium which they cant change one might think the tree is inappropriate to it's surrounding? Or does the tree come first no matter what?

Fine. Discussion over, as I see no point in engaging with you any further on this issue. In fact I've thought that from when you started referring to me as 'that posh bloke'.

    • There’s definitely something in what you say about upbringing, environment, and emotional health. It doesn’t excuse the behaviour, but it might help explain it. I do think low intelligence likely played a role here. People who aren’t taught to value life, whether human or natural, often end up reacting with hostility to the things they don’t understand or appreciate. It’s a sad reflection of both neglect and ignorance. Your suggestion of rehabilitation through something like woodland conservation or sapling planting is actually a lovely and meaningful idea. Let’s hope something good can come of their sentence, though I won’t be holding my breath. Looking forward to meeting you in person at the Forum drinks tonight, and fingers crossed Jasonlondon makes it too. His terrible neighbours really are quite the story.
    • Direct link to livestream of closing ceremony and joint statement:  Today, the conference comes to a close with a joint statement — a historic declaration of collective action in defence of international law and human dignity. At 10:30 Bogotá, 11:30 New York, 16:30 London, 17:30 Paris, 21:00 New Delhi, join the closing ceremony live from the Colombian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The ceremony will feature Gustavo Petro, President of Colombia; Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories; Zane Dangor, Director General of South Africa’s Department of International Relations and Cooperation; Varsha Gandikota-Nellutla, Executive Secretary of The Hague Group; and Fillemon Wise Immanuel, Minister of Justice and Labour Relations of Namibia. The centrepiece of the ceremony will be the reading of the Joint Statement — the result of deliberation among participating governments. This statement will echo far beyond Bogotá. It marks a turning point in the global campaign to hold Israel accountable, protect the Palestinian people, and restore the rule of international law. Join us to witness this historic moment. In solidarity, The Progressive International Secretariat
    • We had the roof on our Victorian terrace replaced in 2023 and were charged just under £12,000, which included new slates, battens, breathable membrane, leadwork, and scaffolding. The cost was mainly due to the complexity of working on an older property and ensuring everything met current building standards.
