Put a rope round it and tie it to the back of your camper and pull it out.

Excuse me Mr Mikey RV...

I don't have a "camper"... :Eeek:

I have a classic, 1987, luxury, Mercedes Hymer 660S motorhome which I will NOT be using to pull a tree stump out of a hole.

I will, however, use a rope and my magnificent, ripped body - plus the ramp technique as used in the building of the Pyramids and it will soon be out of there.

Thanks, however, for your wise suggestion.

JJ :cool:

Thanks Kev, my fathers family were Thames watermen for hundreds of years so I still have a keen interest in the river and it's fantastic history.(y)

A stunning shot of a white "fog bow" has been captured by a photographer over Rannoch Moor in the west of Scotland.
Melvin Nicholson was out on the moor, south of Glen Coe, on Sunday when the "unbelievably beautiful" white rainbow appeared.
Mr Nicholson said: "It is a colourless rainbow that is made up of tiny water droplets that cause fog.
"It's an amazing thing to witness and can generally only be seen if the sun is behind you when you are looking at it."
He said an isolated windswept tree, framed by the fog bow, completed the shot,
"It was just beyond magical and one of those days that you'll remember for a long time to come," he added.
A fog bow has also been photographed in the Cairngorms.
Climber Andy Luke took his image on Sunday near the summit of Cairn Lochan.
He said: "It was quite amazing."

We visited there about three years ago. A very humbling experience. Thank you for the reminder.

I am afraid I wasn't that brave. Had Sid (mh) on the ready to take off. Fortunately only lost our new TV and two new table lamps.
But it is anxiety of the after shocks. Had a 5.7 yesterday. We live 1.30 hours north of Kaikoura. Some very sad cases we know of personally.
I wish I was still living in the wonderful UK.
 
So sorry to hear that, but glad it was only ' things' that were damaged. It is the psychological after affects which are not often taken into account .
Take care.

Sorry to hear about this. It must be scarey .. sending you all a big hug and hoping that you won't have any more shocks. :(

Seen in a bookshop in Durham today. The obscured wording at the foot of the book with the kettle on is The Grandparent. Children's literature has seemingly come on a bit since my day :D

I bought Him Indoors the one called "How it works - The Wife". It didn't work.
 
View across Ypres towards the Menin Gate, Christmas market stalls being set up. We were the only people mad enough to venture high up in the Belfry of the Cloth Hall after a visit to the Flanders Field Museum. It's a damp day and not a great photo but I would recommend a visit to Ypres and the museum.

To think that was all rubble 100 years ago but rebuilt to the same plans as the original buildings in the 1920s.
