An arch would be stronger !

But difficult to balance things on

And a 48" gap and a 48" plank wouldn't make much of an arch, either! 😏

Morning from the shedoffice. Must put a jumper on ! Cold out here. Fingers crossed, my son should get his money today - that will at least enable him to pay for his cam belt next week, not bank of dad. What a ball ache this has been all weekend.

On the subject of trapping fingers, many years ago I dabbled in military surplus to sell on. A Russian acquaintance bought a 50 cal gun and he was cleaning it and stupidly cocked it to get in to a gap and somehow pulled the trigger with two fingers in front of a very powerful spring. They were reattached properly at hospital. It was one of those things that really shouldn't have been funny but he was very jovial about it all. Strange bloke.

My stepson lives in Thailand and they eat chickens feet

I live in Illinois, and eat chicken feet, albeit at a Chinese buffet, when they are open.

When this is all over, the poor birds are going to miss out on their stale multigrain bread. We've got plenty of feeders out, but they make a beeline for the bread I put on the top of an old tree stump. It's gone within a day.

Chilly outside here

Chilly, grey and very squelchy underfoot here chez casa Reynard.

But at least the winter aconites are flowering, and the snowdrops are getting going in the wood. Spent the morning clearing up more of the drainage board's mess. Brought several armfuls of smaller hazel branches in to cut up for kindling, and have dragged out and stacked up a stash of bigger stuff which I will saw up in situ and haul in after lunch.

It will need to dry some before use, as it's been lying on sodden ground and has soaked up a fair bit of water. The last lot of this soggy type stuff I hauled in has developed a rather impressive crop of mushrooms...

I live in Illinois, and eat chicken feet, albeit at a Chinese buffet, when they are open.

And when they're closed?

Don't think so
I bet @Speicher has a theory

Spare key?
Did he fall, or was he pushed/poisoned/stabbeded/shot...
