I think Harris will win. I don't think it will be much of a majority, but I reckon she has enough of a lock on various demographics that Trump can't match elsewhere. Dems win the house, but Reps take the House and Senate

That's very kind, thanks. It looks like it'd be about the size as the lower prong on the lower picture. We'll see how it goes over the next couple of weeks or so.

That's great, thanks. I had a feeling I would be exposing the core. I'll see how I find it for a few weeks first I think. I can always do it at a later date.

'Afternoon all, I've just made myself a walking stick out of Hazel and a roe antler for the thumb rest. One prong is significantly longer than the other. How feasible is it to shorten it off by a couple of inches and to then round off the top again? I'd rather leave it than make a mess of it, but if it's possible, it would probably save me accidentally taking my own eye out with it!

Is anyone around Aurndel perchance? This bird's been seen, apparently. Initially straightforward but...courtship colours in October? And legs that pink? It fits more with Eastern Subspecies GWE's and time of year would say Australia or thereabouts, but I've never seen one coloured like this here and especially not now

Nowt to worry about. Use as intended and dispose of sensibly. Some idiot forgot the last bit. As long as you're not using your lithium battery-device in the back of a bin lorry, Or repeatedly slamming it with a sledgehammer, they're fine.

What was that; 6 knockdowns (one not given) in 4 and a half rounds? Joshua had a battering! What concerns me is his team around him. Why weigh in at you heaviest when you're going up against someone who punches like a jackhammer, but can be heavy on his feet and can blow himself out? Why not give him manoeuvrability and then let his natural punching power come through later. Either Joshua's a bad learner, or his got bad teachers. But enough of Joshua, that was some show from Dubois! What a way to show he deserves his Usyk rematch!

Agreed. Face value it seems pretty funny, but the context is actually pretty sad. Sheltered accommodation and limited function because of a stroke, no one living with him and it being days before anyone noticed he'd been missing. He accidentally stabs himself and with no one he can turn to for help, takes himself up to his bedroom to lie down and dies alone. Just a really sad incident.

Has anyone got any opnions of Harkila Wildwood boots? Good or bad. Also sizing info would be great. For context, my feet are a touch narrow at the heel and wide across the bridge. Salewa boots suit me well, but I need something tougher for fieldwork.

They...weren't pre-used, were they?

Did you take the lens cap off? Sounds like a superb trip!

Thanks for the heads up @ditchman. I shall stick my head out and have a good watch. And will be thinking of them poor dinos as I do so! I think Dorset's got clear skies, so I'll report back

As I said. Bore off. 4 weeks ago I nearly died in a nasty incident fishing. The Olympics has made a very unpleasant few weeks a lot better. If you don't want to watch or haven't got anything positive to say, close the thread and go somewhere else.
