Only by chance, really, the thickness. Because they're live-knots, the resin is still translucent.

I ended up with a 1/2mm sliver/offcut reducing the width of a panel. These are the knot sectio ns of the sliver, detached. Knots are what would have been, or where, branches when the tree was felled and converted.

Well, seeing as motorists use them under condition of a licence, which can be removed or voided, its clear enough to me whom would be the primary user (or rather, who would not be)

MPs urged to confront royal family over Prince Andrewโ€™s Epstein links Calls grow for parliamentary rule changes to strip Andrew of titles and ask questions of royals

While the Queen was on the throne, it was a different matter.

With her passing it's time to ask - perfectly reasonably - who the institution of monarchy serves and whether this one family should rule over us all in perpetuity... with almost zero accountability

Unfortunately, the current labour party/govt seem to have lost their altruistic socialist ideals and values. They're not my party anymore, same as yourself. I've supported them my entire adult life, but not anymore. We absolutely deserve a people focused govt.

Question needs asked, and answered..simply stating they cannot remain untouched is disingenuous at best.

Yup - the counterprotests that did exist were pretty pathetic

The fact that there were no counterprotests shows that Trumpism and MAGA barely exist outside of social media. This movement has gradually collapsed completely within the population. โ€” Itโ€™s difficult to fill the real world with Trump government troll bots.

Halloween began not as fright night but as Samhain, the Celtic festival marking summerโ€™s end. Fires burned to honor the dead and guide wandering spirits home. The veil between worlds thinned, and stories filled the dark. #FolkloreSunday

To everyone who follows me in the United States - I am thinking of all of you today while you protest against the bright orange geriatric sexual predator/felon squatting in the White House.

You have massive solidarity from many millions of people in the United Kingdom.

Let them hear you roar!
