look, theres no need to be petty. if there was then id like to commend you on your proper mick dundee knife
actually makes me feel quite inadequate and less of a man

yeah i tied my blakes wrong... i had no problems with it though, and it hasnt happened again, and probably wont. being receptive to advice from those who know more than me has done me big favours. If i keep on, maybe one day I can call them my peers.

At the end of the day, Everything I've said in this topic has been constructive advice, and i'll keep on doing that to a fault.
Theres no need to start with the point scoring, cos at the end of the day...



and yes i suppose you would have to have a large interest in trees to visit this site... kinda the point?
