    Gee I dunno niggles, I wouldn't risk it. Chickens are pretty inquisitive and will try anything, and also peck at shit just for fun. I had a chook that enjoyed destroying styrofoam worm farm boxes, lol. Chooks are great, but they are a bit like feathered goats in my experience. :)

    EDIT: I might add that you would be thinking the chook destroyed the foam box looking for worms, but she also picked at the foam that cushioned fish tanks, the foam insulation in a shed.... she was a foam addict. Lol. But yeah, chooks make good additions to the yard. I would like to get some quail. Newly hatched quail are so cute. Tiny little things...But there are too many cats in the neighbourhood to have free ranging quail.

    I've messaged his Snuness on the off chance he may have a copy for each of us.

    "Each of us" ???.... The whole SAB community????! Aw how nice of you olive. LOL. Nah, I have the PDF version which is still neat. :)

    I looked around the web for you Hillbilly, (even though you would have already done that, but sometimes woman are better at some things :wink: lol) but nada. I'll keep my eye out :)

    Hi Guys, the whole week was like a ride on a rollercoaster. I was putting together the greenhouse in the pouring rain and when I finally got everything together, a storm came up and blew it over. I am literally writing this after finding my greenhouse collapsed and some of the PVC sheets were bent or partially broken. l´ll probably spend the whole day trying to get it more stable but I am not sure if I´ll succeed with that. I am really not an expert in building greenhouses but a large part of the blame goes to this totally instable greenhouse model, which is overpriced and now forces me to buy an additional windset for 90 bucks that should have been part of the whole shithouse to begin with. I´ll also glue the PVC sheets into the frame because that´s probably the only way I can get them to stay inside when there´s wind. If the greenhouse falls apart at slow winds like the ones we had yesterday, there is no way in the world it will survive the winter. This is ridiculous and I am really pissed about the low quality of the whole thing. Spent like 600 Euros and for that money it should fucking stand.

    Just a little hurdle EG. :wink: Think of how useful it will be once it's sorted. Don't give up. :) . I really hope it isn't as crap as you make it sound in your frustrated post, lol.

    I have seen him logged in once in the last few months,.

    On a few occasions I also thought the same thing hey, but taking a second look, it was a member by the name of 'planthunter'...very similar huh?! Should be a law against that.... It's like a member joining and using the name Amazonia .... Shhh, better not give anyone any ideas :wink: . Lol.

    (No offence planthunter :) )

    As I pulled up to the service station the other day and it was pouring with rain, I remembered back when there were service station attendants. You wouldn't even have to get out of your car, they would put fuel in, check your water and oil and wash your windscreen , then take your payment and bring you back the change. I think they should bring that service back, it would reduce unemployment a bit. Lol.

    While I'm at it, .... I remember forever ago when you had to pay 2 cents to use the toilet at Flinders Street Station in Melbourne. It had a coin slot similar to a gum ball machine, put the coin in and turn. I know right, paying to use a public toilet, at least parking was free back then. Lol.

    I bet many of you use to watch Kung Fu with David Carradine? I loved that show. Yes Grasshopper .... How cool was that old guy. Lol.

    'Banned' sounds so serious, lol. It's just a bit of time out. :) . SAB isn't the place for shit fights. No matter who starts it, it doesn't need to be dragged out for the rest of us forum members to endure. This is a forum about plants and hippy shit, let's keep it that way. :)

    Pimento might feel embarrassed (if that's the right word) about his time out, but should return to contribute to the Forum.

    This will all be lost in the archives of SAB...... In a week it will be forgotten about.
