I am not a religious person but respect others rights to believe in summat to help them through the day
dawkins basically says they are all stupid
it made me quite uneasy

Agreed. I'm an agnostic and do agree with much of what he says.
I wouldn't want to be stuck in an elevator with him for too long though. He's a miserable and arrogant sod.

It's a short history of nearly everything if I recall correctly. Great book. First time I'd experienced the history of the earth depicted in correlation to a 24 hr clock. Really makes you appreciate how insignificant we are as a species on the grand scale and how infinitesimally insignificant one human life span is.

He does say they are stupid i suppose, but his argument is well put.
The first few paragraphs of brystons book are fantastic forest aren't they? His comparison of the earth in our galaxy as one grain of sand in the sahara and the galaxy as one grain of sand and so on, really made me think. Before the big bang.......define nothing? No darkness/light/quiet/noise/hot/cold - difficult init?

You tried the lightweight ones? They are ok on your own.
how did you manage to get away without timber bolted on to the left hand post for the gate furniture?

10 ft concrete gravel boards are the worst IMO. They're about the same weight as a mortised concrete post i.e bloody heavy, but that extra 2 ft in length makes them just a bit more awkward.
I try to avoid lifting them on my own cos they cut into my skin.
