Glad you have the same problem with raiding Squirrels My latest attempt is:
(1)A floppy collar around a Birch tree to stop them climbing up!
(2) A set of feaders suspended by a pulley system so that it hangs from a thin branch.
(3) An inverted plastic seed tray that is above the feeders and from which they hang, this will tilt if anything heavy gets onto it.
Will it work? not a hope!

The answer to the squirrel raiders is -I just feed them too!! There is a great site called "ark" to get bulk deliveries of bird/squirrel food, they like monkey nuts hazelnuts and as a treat walnuts! We have one with a ? injured /deformed tail that hops along, they are fun to watch with the nuts, and tend to leave the bird feeders alone
H -the ash grove is a traditional English(or is that Welsh!) song, here sung by Nana Mouskouri

Bloody hell Jewel, not Nana Mouskouri
I would gladly give here back those Elgin Marbles if she just stopped making records.
Nah, only kidding it sounds quite nice, however I know a better version to that tune, it goes along the lines of:
“She came from Glamorgan, had boobs like a barrel organ” and continues with something about a ‘Dickie di do’ Does anyone else in the rugby fraternity know the song?

Oi H you been at the shiraz??
The one I do know is the yogi bear song! Love it
This is too rude really...........unless you know better
A young couple from Aberystwyth da da da da de de de da da...
perhaps they know the lass from Glamorgan ......I do happen to know that it took a welsh miner to find her......la de da
Now look what you started
This is the song in full, but there is a worse version
