I just bought the #DEWALT DCS367N 18v Reciprocating saw. ๐
Whilst itโs a beast of a tool, with EZARC blades that ripped through some serious tree roots, the saw consumes battery life for fun. โน๏ธ
I got through 4 batteries in a 3 hour period, not continuously, but its so powerful Iโm going to need more batteries for bigger jobs. ๐ณ
Absolute shocking performance, especially the first half, along with the ref & VAR, simply not good enough in all areas. ๐ก
Poorest refereeing Iโve seen in a long time. ๐
Penders helped keep it down to 1-nil, otherwise it could have been even more embarrassing. ๐
This isnโt good enough Alonso. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
Weโre not scoring today, this will be a huge loss for us today, I just canโt see where a goal is coming from, 70% possession means squat in the grande scheme of things, theyโve had far many more good opportunities than us. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
11 Vs 13, ref and VAR obviously have money on this game!
How thatโs not a foul/pen on Cole and a sending off (second yellow) begs belief. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
No doubt Howard Webb will apologise tomorrow, which is worth fck all ๐ก
On 7th November 1920, in strictest secrecy, four unidentified British bodies were exhumed from temporary battlefield cemeteries at Ypres, Arras, the Asine and the Somme.
None of the soldiers who did the digging were told why.
The bodies were taken by field ambulance to GHQ at St-Pol-Sur-Ternoise. Once there, the bodies were draped with the union flag.
Sentries were posted and Brigadier-General Wyatt and a Colonel Gell selected one body at random. The other three were reburied. A French Honour Guard was selected and stood by the coffin overnight of the chosen soldier.
On the morning of the 8th November, a specially designed coffin made of oak from the grounds of Hampton Court arrived and the Unknown Warrior was placed inside. On top was placed a crusaders sword and a shield on which was inscribed:
"A British Warrior who fell in the GREAT WAR 1914-1918 for King and Country".
On the 9th of November, the Unknown Warrior was taken by horse-drawn carriage with Guards of Honour and the sound of tolling bells and bugle calls to the quayside.
There, he was saluted by Marechal Foche and loaded onto HMS Verdun bound for Dover. The coffin stood on the deck covered in wreaths, surrounded by the French Honour Guard.
Upon arrival at Dover, the Unknown Warrior was met with a nineteen-gun salute - something that was normally only reserved for Field Marshals.
A special train had been arranged and he was then conveyed to Victoria Station, London. He remained there overnight, and, on the morning of the 11th of November, he was finally taken to Westminster Abbey.
The idea of the unknown warrior was thought of by a Padre called David Railton who had served on the front line during the Great War, the union flag he had used as an altar cloth whilst at the front, was the one that had been draped over the coffin.
It was his intention that all of the relatives of the 517,773 combatants whose bodies had not been identified could believe that the Unknown Warrior could very well be their lost husband, father, brother or son...
We do not glorify war.
We remember - with humility - the great and the ultimate sacrifices that were made, not just in this war, but in every war and conflict where our service personnel have fought - to ensure the liberty and freedoms that we now take for granted.
Every year, on the 11th November, we remember.
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember them. ๐ฅ ๐ซก ๐ ๐บ

Sowed my first seedโฆ..๐
I decided to sow some seeds in these no dig beds today, which I started when I took on this plot only 4 weeks ago. ๐
The beds were almost finished and ready in waiting for spring, but as I work on the rest of the plot, which requires a lot more work and physical effort, I thought, why not get some seeds on the go now. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
So, I added some fibreglass hoops to bed 1, then topped off the bed with some Jacks Magic compost on top of the well rotted farmyard manure. ๐
I then sowed some Red Sun Shallots, some China Rose Radish, and some winter Lettuce. ๐ฅฌ
then covered the bed with a fine mesh, clipped it to the hoops, then weighed it down around the sides with bricks. ๐งฑ
Itโs all a bit โtrial & errorโ, all these seeds are supposedly ok to sow in November, so itโs just a waiting game nowโฆ..๐ค
Not sure if I need to mulch them for some extra warmth & protection though. ๐ค
I found today very time consuming, I felt I achieved a lot more yesterday, which was heavy going, ripping up membrane, plastic sheets and tarpaulins, plus digging up bushes & bricks, and yet planting some seeds and covering took almost the same time. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ

Has anyone else noticed, that almost all Chip shops are now closed at lunchtimes ๐ค
Whilst on the road, all over the country, I used to enjoy the lunchtime specials that were on offer, but now finding a chippy open, is a task all of its own. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
Has the chippy become too expensive?
Has the quality of food in the chippy become poorer?
Whereโs the shift, is it to McDโs, KFC, Greggs etc?
