Personally i'm torn between the classic Stirrup Pump


http://www.london-fire.gov.uk/Images/Stirrup_pump.jpg


and the Garden Flame Thrower.


http://www.grizzlycentral.com/forum/attachments/great-outdoors/6145d1248574752-what-coolest-tool-you-have-flamethrower09.jpg


I'm not sure which i'd rather own, just for the sake-of-owning-one.


( I think the flamethrower is edging it - tho in my dream i'm floating down lordship lane in a canoe during a flood, I see that well know Dub-Duo bobbing along in their silly truck but they've snagged them selves on a lampost outside the ED Deli. The not bald one is trying to fish a soggy loaf out of the flood water with a colander on a stick, he panics and tries to hide under the damp tonneau cover. But too late, I pull the Garden-Flame-Thrower up and pump the trigger - and a 40ft flame licks across the water, torching the sound system and truck into dust. And as I float by the not bald one & the nearly bald one bob in the murky water - eyes blinking, smarting from the heat - all in slow mo.

"Why" they mouth


"Why not, it's my dream" I mouth back, giving the trigger one last blast & setting the hanging basket on the lampost alight..)

My tool of choice is a big feck-off cleaver that I use for almost all cutting in the kitchen, I'll post a photo later.

I swear by the mean Mother, which has chopped and peeled its way through many a beast and vegetable, and also the odd finger. Still sharp after 15 years. Bought in NE Thailand.

Also cuts Japanese knotweed and carpet underlay.

how do you sharpen it?

C'mon PR - that's not a tool. Someting to fix the bike perhaps?


Anyway, I'd nominate two things. First, a polishing mitt - keeps shoes shinier than ever before:

And then something I desire - an adze. It's like a curved axe used for hollowing out wood. You can make a bowl or a canoe.

You're a genius David


That's the canoe in my dream surely.


(watch out the pesky dub-duo, dreams can come true!)

    • OP is wrapped in such hyperbole that it takes a couple of reads to extract the key point, which is exactly what you say it is. Obviously if the tickets were issued before the signs went up then they should be reversed. If OP is really concerned about it then they should also email the parking enforcement team to ask them to cancel those tickets themselves instead of waiting for the drivers to challenge them.
    • They're obviously not competent to witness the documents in the OP's case.  The list of required qualifications looks to me similar to the Land Registry's requirement connected with a TR1. Vladi, from my own experience I'd not rely on email inquiries of potentials.   The response I got an email to the solicitors in Melbourne Grove was from another of their branches and was inconsequential.  From William Bailey, addressed to their published  reception or info mailbox and saying I could drop in at very short notice, I'm afraid I got no response  at all, even after also mentioning that  I'd be looking for assistance with a will in the near future and expected to be asking them.  From an online search i did note quite a few in the Camberwell area.  In the end though I was able to rely on an online verification, arranged by one of the other parties.
    • Hard to get evidence for what has happened, but going forward, get cctv evidence of trespass and any interference, ask you other neighbours to as well. Contact solicitor and report to police and council. get more plants to replace those destroyed
    • Thank you, finding out they'd done the same to three of my neighbor’s trees made it a bit easier to accept — it wasn’t just me they were targeting; they’re just toxic people in general.
