This is a question Question of the Week suggestions

Each week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:

* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer

What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

Deconstruction
I've just taken down a pergola with a metre deep Russian Vine over the top. It had nine birds' nests in it, and had rotted all of the cross timbers. It covered the entire lawn and needs a skip of its own. What's the biggest/worst thing you've ever taken down? (Answers containing the words "your mum" will be sniggered at unmercifully.)

A Bali inspired Gazebo
4x 10" diameter cotton palm posts about 2.5m in length.
Concrete anchors weighing about 70kg each.
Timber (dressed pine) and roof tiles(!) to make a 4m square high pitched roof.

I tried to give it away but even a big local landscape company didn't have the resources.

I once deconstructed
the oppressive assumptions inbuilt in the paternalistic discourse of the supposedly liberal Western academic method, thereby exposing the underlying male-dominated hegemony. Then I had a wank.

I had a shed once. Then took it down.
